Abstract

The increasing global energy demand necessitates reliable and sustainable solutions, with solar photovoltaic (PV) technology emerging as a key carbon-neutral option. However, optimizing solar energy systems requires advanced monitoring and predictive analytics to enhance efficiency and ensure long-term performance. This study introduces an Internet of Things (IoT)-based solar energy monitoring system, integrating machine learning algorithms and cloud computing to enhance real-time performance assessment. The proposed system employs K-Means Clustering for condition classification, Support Vector Machine (SVM) for fault detection, Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) for energy forecasting, Prophet for time-series predictions, and Isolation Forest for anomaly detection. The system was validated using a 125-watt photovoltaic module, monitoring temperature, solar radiation, voltage, and current. A Wi-Fi-enabled microcontroller collects data, which is processed through a cloud-based platform and visualized via the Blynk application. Experimental results demonstrate 94.2% energy prediction accuracy using LSTM, 89.7% fault classification accuracy with SVM, and 88.5% anomaly detection accuracy with Isolation Forest, confirming high reliability. The system's wireless tracking mechanism minimizes resource consumption, ensuring scalability and adaptability for commercial and industrial applications. The integration of IoT, machine learning, and cloud analytics provides a cost-effective and scalable approach for solar PV optimization. Future enhancements include deep learning models and reinforcement learning algorithms to improve energy forecasting, fault detection, and adaptive optimization, ensuring greater efficiency, resilience, and sustainability in solar energy management.

Abstract

Sedentary behavior has become a pressing global public health issue. This study introduces an innovative method for monitoring and addressing posture changes during inactivity, offering real-time feedback to individuals. Unlike our prior research, which focused on post-analysis, this approach emphasizes real-time monitoring of upper body posture, including hands, shoulders, and head positioning. Image capture techniques document sedentary postures, followed by preprocessing with bandpass filters and morphological operations such as dilation, erosion, and opening to enhance image quality. Texture feature extraction is employed for comprehensive analysis, and deep neural networks (DNN) are used for precise predictions. A key innovation is a feedback system that alerts individuals through an alarm, enabling immediate posture adjustments. Implemented in MATLAB, the method achieved accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity rates of 98.2%, 90.7%, and 99.2%, respectively. Comparative analysis with established methods, including support vector machine (SVM), random forest, and K-nearest neighbors (KNN), demonstrate the superiority of our approach in accuracy and performance metrics. This real-time intervention strategy has the potential to mitigate the adverse effects of sedentary behavior, reducing risks associated with cardiovascular and musculoskeletal diseases. By providing immediate corrective feedback, the proposed system addresses a critical gap in sedentary behavior research and offers a practical solution for improving public health outcomes.
