Energy efficiency plays a major role in sustaining lifespan and stability of the network, being one of most critical factors in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). To overcome the problem of energy depletion in WSN, this paper proposes a new Energy Efficient Clustering Scheme named African Vulture Optimization Algorithm based EECS (AVOACS) using AVOA. The proposed AVOACS method improves clustering by including four critical terms: communication mode decider, distance of sink and nodes, residual energy and intra-cluster distance. Through mimicking the natural scavenging behavior of African vultures, AVOACS continuously balances energy consumption on nodes resulting in an increase in network stability and lifetime. For CH selection, we use AVOACS, which considers the following parameters: communication mode decider, the distance between sink and node, residual energy, and intra-cluster distance. In comparison to the OE2-LB protocol, simulation findings demonstrate that AVOACS enhances stability, network lifetime, and throughput by 21.5%, 31.4%, and 16.9%, respectively. The results show that AVOACS is an effective clustering algorithm for energy-efficient operation in heterogeneous WSN environments as it contributes to a large increase of network lifetime and significant enhancement of performance.

Background: The majority of wearable technology is employed in the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) health monitoring systems to recognize various bodily indicators. All monitored values are sent to a central server, where they are all treated by experts at the appropriate moment. Therefore, by expanding the use of wireless devices, it has been discovered that such communication technologies can recognize specific depression traits and mood swings. Objectives: The major objective of the proposed method is to analyze the disputes that arise in the characteristics of an individual by observing the leveling periods that are identified from the processed image. In addition, the rate of data transfer in case of any dispute is maximized therefore recognition problem is solved at a minimized distance. Further, the steady state probability values are achieved at low delay thus minimizing the dropout packets in the monitored system using IoMT and LSTM. Methods: A balanced record with four distinct parameters—such as livelihood, self-reliance, correlation, and precision—is employed with the projected model on IoMT for depression identification. As a result, high data transfer rates and low distance separation are used to process the identification framework. Additionally, by combining an original matrix representation with the input feature set using LSTM, a novel framework with great efficiency is created. Results: In order to assess the results of IoMT using LSTM, four situations are split apart and their probability ratios are calculated. The results of each situation are then contrasted with the current methodology, and it is found that when there is a low dropout ratio, depression in a person is quickly diagnosed. Conclusion: The comparison analysis demonstrates that the proposed method, when compared to the current method, offers the best-compromised outcomes at roughly 64%.

Skin cancer is one of the most life-threatening diseases caused by the abnormal growth of the skin cells, when exposed to ultraviolet radiation. Early detection seems to be more crucial for reducing aberrant cell proliferation because the mortality rate is rapidly rising. Although multiple researches are available based on the skin cancer detection, there still exists challenges in improving the accuracy, reducing the computational time and so on. In this research, a novel skin cancer detection is performed using a modified falcon finch deep Convolutional neural network classifier (Modified Falcon finch deep CNN) that efficiently detects the disease with higher efficiency. The usage of modified falcon finch deep CNN classifier effectively analyzed the information relevant to the skin cancer and the errors are also minimized. The inclusion of the falcon finch optimization in the deep CNN classifier is necessary for efficient parameter tuning. This tuning enhanced the robustness and boosted the convergence of the classifier that detects the skin cancer in less stipulated time. The modified falcon finch deep CNN classifier achieved accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity values of 93.59%, 92.14%, and 95.22% regarding k-fold and 96.52%, 96.69%, and 96.54% regarding training percentage, proving more effective than literary works.
