... The quality value under the corresponding index is taken as the vertical axis to show the change of the corresponding index value of the selected features in each algorithm within the range of ½10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50. Specifically, in Figures 2-6, we can intuitively observe the change of the optimal result of the comparison algorithm under the optimal parameter as the number of selected features increases and the quality comparison of each algorithm under the same dataset and the same indicator when the number of selected features is ½10, 15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50. As can be seen in Figure 2, under the hamming loss index, the curves of the suggested algorithm on all datasets are below the curves of the comparison algorithm, thus indicating the superiority of the suggested algorithm in the hamming loss index. ...

People often suffer from unpredictable injuries during physical exercise. One of the important reasons is the absence of a scientific sports health management system. Therefore, the construction of such a scientific and effective system has gradually attracted the attention of scholars, which is of great significance to realizing people’s scientific and personalized physical fitness. An intelligent sports health management system based on big data analysis and the Internet of things (IoT) is constructed to solve this problem. The system consists of the user, IoT, cloud, system analysis, evaluation, and data layers. Firstly, a new multilabel feature selection algorithm is proposed in the system analysis layer. The suggested multilabel feature selection algorithm maps the sample space to the label space through the L 21 norm. Then, the consistency of various topologies is guaranteed by combining with feature popularity so that the factors affecting user health can be better selected. Secondly, the experiment is compared with SCLS, SSFS, and six other multilabel feature selection algorithms in 6 classic medical multilabel datasets. Experimental results under five indexes show the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed feature selection algorithm. Finally, the feasibility of the proposed intelligent sports management system is analyzed.
... On the other hand, the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies [3,4] are being used in many contemporary application fields like video surveillance, weather monitoring, air pollution control, smart road traffic, in addition to e-Health. In IoT-based e-Health systems [5][6][7], personal devices or wearable IoT sensors are transmitting data concerning the state of patients (e.g., body temperature, heart rate, oxygen saturation, glycemia) continuously, to collection points which can be computer systems of networked physicians or hospitals. These data streams are heterogeneous in nature due to the use of a variety of remote sensors, involve structured, semistructured and unstructured data and, in some cases, may also include multimedia contents (e.g., videos, sounds, images). ...

e-Health IoT sensor data represent entities which are evolving over time, and several healthcare applications require keeping a full history of such data. Moreover, e-Health IoT data can be considered as Big Data and the JSON format is being considered as the best data format to represent Big Data and to facilitate their management, storage and exchange. However, there is no standard/consensual temporal model for e-Health IoT data, including JSON that lacks explicit support of time-varying data. Consequently, in order to manage Big Data histories and temporal e-Health IoT data, application developers have to proceed in an ad hoc manner. For that purpose, we propose in this chapter TJeH (Temporal JSON e-Health IoT data model), a temporal extension of the JSON data model, which supports the representation of temporal aspects of e-Health IoT data. Besides, and since TJeH is a logical model, in order to facilitate the work of both designers and database administrators of e-Health applications, we have also defined a graphical conceptual model for time-varying e-Health IoT data, named C-TJeH (Conceptual TJeH), associated to TJeH. C-TJeH makes easy the design of temporal JSON e-Health IoT data, with a conceptual model that provides a graphical user-friendly representation.

In today's world, the advancement of telediagnostic equipment plays an essential role to monitor heart disease. The earlier diagnosis of heart disease proliferates the compatibility of treatment of patients and predominantly provides an expeditious diagnostic recommendation from clinical experts. However, the feature extraction is a major challenge for heart disease prediction where the high dimensional data increases the learning time for existing machine learning classifiers. In this article, a novel efficient Internet of Things-based tuned adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (TANFIS) classifier has been proposed for accurate prediction of heart disease. Here, the tuning parameters of the proposed TANFIS are optimized through Laplace Gaussian mutation-based moth flame optimization and grasshopper optimization algorithm. The simulation scenario can be carried out using11 different datasets from the UCI repository. The proposed method obtains an accuracy of 99.76% for heart disease prediction and it has been improved upto 5.4% as compared with existing algorithms.
