This study investigates the transformative impact of smart intelligence, leveraging the Internet of Things and edge-cloud platforms in smart urban development. Smart urban development, by integrating diverse digital technologies, generates substantial data crucial for informed decision-making in disaster management and effective urban well-being. The edge-cloud platform, with its dynamic resource allocation, plays a crucial role in prioritizing tasks, reducing service delivery latency, and ensuring critical operations receive timely computational power, thereby improving urban services. However, the current method has struggled to meet the strict quality of service (QoS) requirements of complex workflow applications. In this study, these shortcomings in edge-cloud are addressed by introducing a multi-objective resource optimization (MORO) scheduler for diverse urban setups. This scheduler, with its emphasis on granular task prioritization and consideration of diverse makespans, costs, and energy constraints, underscores the complexity of the task and the need for a sophisticated solution. The multi-objective makespan–energy optimization is achieved by employing a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) model. The simulation results indicate consistent improvements with average makespan enhancements of 31.6% and 70.09%, average cost reductions of 62.64% and 73.24%, and average energy consumption reductions of 25.02% and 17.77%, respectively, by MORO over-reliability enhancement strategies for workflow scheduling (RESWS) and multi-objective priority workflow scheduling (MOPWS) for SIPHT workflow. Similarly, consistent improvements with average makespan enhancements of 37.98% and 74.44%, average cost reductions of 65.53% and 74.89%, and average energy consumption reductions of 29.52% and 24.73%, respectively, by MORO over RESWS and MOPWS for CyberShake workflow, highlighting the proposed model’s efficiency gains. These findings substantiate the model’s potential to enhance computational efficiency, reduce costs, and improve energy conservation in real-world smart urban scenarios.

Data is incredibly significant in today's digital age because data represents facts and numbers from our regular life transactions. Data is no longer arriving in a static form; it is now arriving in a streaming fashion. Data streams are the arrival of limitless, continuous, and rapid data. The healthcare industry is a major generator of data streams. Processing data streams is extremely complex due to factors such as volume, pace, and variety. Data stream classification is difficult owing to idea drift. Concept drift occurs in supervised learning when the statistical properties of the target variable that the model predicts change unexpectedly. We focused on solving various forms of concept drift problems in healthcare data streams in this research, and we outlined the existing statistical and machine learning methodologies for dealing with concept drift. It also emphasizes the use of deep learning algorithms for concept drift detection and describes the various healthcare datasets utilized for concept drift detection in data stream categorization.

Data mining and analytics involve inspecting and modeling large pre-existing datasets to discover decision-making information. Precision agriculture uses datamining to advance agricultural developments. Many farmers aren't getting the most out of their land because they don't use precision agriculture. They harvest crops without a well-planned recommendation system. Future crop production is calculated by combining environmental conditions and management behavior, yielding numerical and categorical data. Most existing research still needs to address data preprocessing and crop categorization/classification. Furthermore, statistical analysis receives less attention, despite producing more accurate and valid results. The study was conducted on a dataset about Karnataka state, India, with crops of eight parameters taken into account, namely the minimum amount of fertilizers required, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, and pH values. The research considers rainfall, season, soil type, and temperature parameters to provide precise cultivation recommendations for high productivity. The presented algorithm converts discrete numerals to factors first, then reduces levels. Second, the algorithm generates six datasets, two fromCase-1 (dataset withmany numeric variables), two from Case-2 (dataset with many categorical variables), and one from Case-3 (dataset with reduced factor variables). Finally, the algorithm outputs a class membership allocation based on an extended version of the K-means partitioning method with lambda estimation. The presented work produces mixed-type datasets with precisely categorized crops by organizing data based on environmental conditions, soil nutrients, and geo-location. Finally, the prepared dataset solves the classification problem, leading to a model evaluation that selects the best dataset for precise crop prediction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In recent years plant disease detection and classification is finding a lot of scope in the field of agriculture. The use of image pre-processing along with deep learning techniques is making the role of farmers easy in the process of plant leaf disease detection. In this paper we propose a deep learning technique, ResNet-50 for the identification and classification of leaf diseases mainly in banana and sunflower. Images for the training and testing purpose are collected by visiting the farms and from village dataset for normal, leaf spot, leaf blight, powdery mildew, bunchy top, sigatoka, panama wilt. Pre-processing is done to remove eliminate the noise in the image by converting the RGB input to HSV image. Binary pictures are retrieved to separate the diseased and unaffected portions based on the hue and saturation components. A clustering method is utilized to separate the diseased region from the normal portion and the background. Classification of the disease is carried out using ResNet-50 algorithm. The experimental results obtained are compared with CNN, machine learning algorithms like SVM, KNN, DT and Ensemble algorithm like RF and XG booster. The proposed algorithm provided maximum efficiency compared to other algorithms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
