This article outlines an integrated strategy that combines fuzzy multi‐objective programming and a multi‐criteria decision‐making framework to achieve a number of transportation system management‐related objectives. To rank fleet cars using various criteria enhancement, the Fuzzy technique for order of preference by resemblance to optimum solution are initially integrated. We then offer a novel Multi‐Objective Possibilistic Linear Programming (MOPLP) model, based on the rankings of the vehicles, to determine the number of vehicles chosen for the work while taking into consideration the constraints placed on them. The search for optimal solutions to MOPs has benefited from the decades‐long development of classical optimisation techniques. As a result of its potential for use in the real world, multi‐objective optimisation (MOO) under uncertainty has gained traction in recent years. Recently, fuzzy set theory has been used to solve challenges in multi‐objective linear programming. In this paper, we present a method for solving MOPs that makes use of both linear and non‐linear membership functions to maximize user happiness. A hypothetical case study of transportation issue is taken here. This innovative approach improves management for the betterment of transportation networks in smart cities. The method is a more robust and versatile approach to the complex difficulties of contemporary urban transportation because it incorporates the TOPSIS method for vehicle ranking and then using Distance Operator and variable Membership Functions in fuzzy goal programming operation on the selected vehicles. The results provide valuable insights into the strengths and limitations of each technique, facilitating informed decision‐making in real‐world optimization scenarios. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The most important and difficult challenge the digital society has recently faced is ensuring data privacy and security in cloud‐based Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. As a result, many researchers believe that the blockchain's Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) is a good choice for various clever applications. Nevertheless, it encountered constraints and difficulties with elevated computing expenses, temporal demands, operational intricacy, and diminished security. Therefore, the proposed work aims to develop a Decentralized Identifiable Distributed Ledger Technology‐Blockchain (DIDLT‐BC) framework that is intelligent and effective, requiring the least amount of computing complexity to ensure cloud IoT system safety. In this case, the Rabin algorithm produces the digital signature needed to start the transaction. The public and private keys are then created to verify the transactions. The block is then built using the DIDLT model, which includes the block header information, hash code, timestamp, nonce message, and transaction list. The primary purpose of the Blockchain Consent Algorithm (BCA) is to find solutions for numerous unreliable nodes with varying hash values. The novel contribution of this work is to incorporate the operations of Rabin digital data signature generation, DIDLT‐based blockchain construction, and BCA algorithms for ensuring overall data security in IoT networks. With proper digital signature generation, key generation, blockchain construction and validation operations, secured data storage and retrieval are enabled in the cloud‐IoT systems. By using this integrated DIDLT‐BCA model, the security performance of the proposed system is greatly improved with 98% security, less execution time of up to 150 ms, and reduced mining time of up to 0.98 s.

The image object recognition and detection technology are widely used in many scenarios. In recent years, big data has become increasingly abundant, and big data-driven artificial intelligence models have attracted more and more attention. Evolutionary computation has also provided a powerful driving force for the optimization and improvement of deep learning models. In this paper, we propose an image object detection method based on self-supervised and data-driven learning. Differ from other methods, our approach stands out due to its innovative use of multispectral data fusion and evolutionary computation for model optimization. Specifically, our method uniquely combines visible light images and infrared images to detect and identify image targets. Firstly, we utilize a self-supervised learning method and the AutoEncoder model to perform high-dimensional feature extraction on the two types of images. Secondly, we fuse the extracted features from the visible light and infrared images to detect and identify objects. Thirdly, we introduce a model parameter optimization method using evolutionary learning algorithms to enhance model performance. Validation on public datasets shows that our method achieves comparable or superior performance to existing methods. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Detecting brain tumours is complex due to the natural variation in their location, shape, and intensity in images. While having accurate detection and segmentation of brain tumours would be beneficial, current methods still need to solve this problem despite the numerous available approaches. Precise analysis of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is crucial for detecting, segmenting, and classifying brain tumours in medical diagnostics. Magnetic Resonance Imaging is a vital component in medical diagnosis, and it requires precise, efficient, careful, efficient, and reliable image analysis techniques. The authors developed a Deep Learning (DL) fusion model to classify brain tumours reliably. Deep Learning models require large amounts of training data to achieve good results, so the researchers utilised data augmentation techniques to increase the dataset size for training models. VGG16, ResNet50, and convolutional deep belief networks networks extracted deep features from MRI images. Softmax was used as the classifier, and the training set was supplemented with intentionally created MRI images of brain tumours in addition to the genuine ones. The features of two DL models were combined in the proposed model to generate a fusion model, which significantly increased classification accuracy. An openly accessible dataset from the internet was used to test the model's performance, and the experimental results showed that the proposed fusion model achieved a classification accuracy of 98.98%. Finally, the results were compared with existing methods, and the proposed model outperformed them significantly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
