Optimized machine learning enabled intrusion detection 2 system for internet of medical things

Zhenyang Sun, Gangyi An, Yixuan Yang et al. · 22 Nov 2023

This research paper proposes an intrusion detection system that combines particle swarm optimization and AdaBoost algorithms to classify and detect malware-related records in innovative health app platforms. The research employs the NSL KDD dataset, consisting of 125,973 instances and 41 features, with data split into training (20%) and testing (80%) sets. A feature selection process…

Mathematical modeling of malaria epidemic dynamics with enlightenment and therapy intervention using the Laplace-Adomian decomposition method and Caputo fractional order

Akeem Olarewaju Yunus, Morufu Oyedunsi Olayiwola · 24 Aug 2024

This paper examines malaria, a prevalent mosquito-borne disease in Africa that causes fever, chills, and headaches. Diagnosis involves blood tests, and treatment primarily relies on antimalarial drugs. Mathematical modeling is crucial for disease prevention and eradication strategies. The study uses deterministic models to analyze global malaria transmission patterns, focusing on enlightened therapy's effectiveness as a…

A machine learning approach for player and position adjusted expected goals in football (soccer)

James H. Hewitt, Oktay Karakuş · 30 Aug 2023

Football is a very result-driven industry, with goals being rarer than in most sports, so having further parameters to judge the performance of teams and individuals is key. Expected Goals (xG) allow further insight than just a scoreline. To tackle the need for further analysis in football, this paper uses machine learning methods that are…
