    ABSTRACT The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is revolutionising transportation by connecting vehicles, infrastructure and devices, enabling more intelligent and safer mobility. One key challenge is ensuring efficient and secure communication among vehicles with varying capabilities, including different sizes, speeds and sensor configurations. This research introduces a Federated Learning‐Driven Deep Learning (FLDL) approach to intelligent collision avoidance, designed to address the heterogeneity of vehicles in the IoV ecosystem. The system integrates real‐time data from vehicle‐to‐vehicle (V2V) and vehicle‐to‐infrastructure (V2I) communications, while considering factors like vehicle type, road conditions, driver behaviour and Digital Twins. Our approach leverages multiple Federated Learning strategies, which enhance privacy protection, reduce communication overhead and enable real‐time decision‐making without the need for centralised data storage. Experimental results show that the GNN + FedGC model achieves the highest performance with an accuracy of 98.8%, outperforming other models such as MLP with FedLU (98.5%), DRL with FedPPO (98.3%) and LSTM with FedSGD (97.65%). The integration of Digital Twins further enhances model accuracy by simulating real‐time vehicle behaviour and environmental conditions. This FL‐based system not only improves collision prediction but also enhances safety, reduces accident rates and supports scalable decision‐making in smart city transportation systems.

    The Internet of Things (IoT) encompasses a broad platform of sensor networks incorporating independent wireless networks. With advancements in sensor technology and IoT-enabled networks, their applications in the medical field have led to the development of the Internet of Medical Things (IoMT). In IoMT, sensor nodes monitor and evaluate patient conditions such as heartbeat, blood sugar levels, blood pressure and temperature, and can also remotely track patient activities through remote analysis. These IoMT systems utilize tiny sensors with limited communication ranges to gather essential patient information. Wireless devices are equipped with a short range and need a direct communication path. However, transmitting data from the source node to the destination node ultimately results in energy consumption and path loss. Path loss models and energy consumption models are essential to address these issues. In this paper, we propose a novel routing protocol named Energy Efficient and Path Loss Preserving (EEPLP) for IoMT. The EEPLP protocol focuses on energy efficiency and path loss preservation based on the relay approach. Two models are being proposed, one for path loss and the other for energy consumption. Finally, both models are merged since the major contribution is to avoid path loss and enhance the protocol’s energy efficiency. The EEPLP evaluates the state-of-the-art existing approaches of IoMT. The protocol is evaluated by simulating conditions and compared with other similar routing protocols already deployed in the IoMT; it has been observed that the EEPLP scheme has the potential to be maneuvered in IoMT structures with core targets of energy efficiency as well as path loss preservation techniques.

  • Vehicle Dynamics and Interaction for Trajectory Prediction and Traffic Control

    Trajectory prediction is a crucial challenge in autonomous vehicle motion planning and decision-making techniques. However, existing methods face limitations in accurately capturing vehicle dynamics and interactions. To address this issue, this article proposes a novel approach to extracting vehicle velocity and acceleration, enabling the learning of vehicle dynamics and encoding them as auxiliary information. The VDI-LSTM model is designed, incorporating graph convolution and attention mechanisms to capture vehicle interactions using trajectory data and dynamic information. Specifically, a dynamics encoder is designed to capture the dynamic information, a dynamic graph is employed to represent vehicle interactions, and an attention mechanism is introduced to enhance the performance of LSTM and graph convolution. To demonstrate the effectiveness of our model, extensive experiments are conducted, including comparisons with several baselines and ablation studies on real-world highway datasets. Experimental results show that VDI-LSTM outperforms other baselines compared, which obtains a 3% improvement on the average RMSE indicator over the five prediction steps.

    Deep learning (DL), a pivotal artificial intelligence (AI) innovation, has dramatically transformed biosciences, aligning with the surge in complex data volumes to foster notable progress across disciplines such as genomics, genetics, and drug discovery. DL's precision and efficiency outmatch conventional methods, propelling advancements in biomedical imaging and disease marker identification. Despite its success, DL's integration into broader bioscience areas encounters hurdles including data scarcity, interpretability challenges, computational demands, and the necessity for ethical and regulatory considerations. Overcoming these obstacles is vital for DL to achieve its transformative potential fully. This review explores into DL's expanding role in biosciences, critically examining areas ripe for DL application and highlighting underexplored opportunities. It provides an insightful analysis of the algorithms that form the backbone of DL in biosciences, offering a thorough understanding of their capabilities. Ultimately, this paper aims to equip biotechnologists and researchers with the knowledge to leverage DL effectively, thereby enhancing the analysis of complex bioscience data and contributing to the field's future advancements.

  • Q-GEV Based Novel Trainable Clustering Scheme for Reducing Complexity of Data Clustering

    ABSTRACTThis paper presents a new data clustering technique aimed at enhancing the performance of the trainable path‐cost algorithm and reducing the computational complexity of data clustering models. The proposed method facilitates the discovery of natural groupings and behaviours, which is crucial for effective coordination in complex environments. It identifies natural groupings within a set of features and detects the best clusters with similar behaviour in the data, overcoming the limitations of traditional state‐of‐the‐art methods. The algorithm utilises a density peak clustering method to determine cluster centers and then extracts features from paths passing through these peak points (centers). These features are used to train the support vector machine (SVM) to predict the labels of other points. The proposed algorithm is enhanced using two key concepts: first, it employs Q‐Generalised Extreme Value (Q‐GEV) under power normalisation instead of traditional generalised extreme value distributions, thereby increasing modelling flexibility; second, it utilises the random vector functional link (RVFL) network rather than the SVM, which helps avoid overfitting and improves label prediction accuracy. The effectiveness of the proposed clustering algorithm is evaluated through various experiments, including those on UCI benchmark datasets and real‐world data, demonstrating significant improvements across multiple performance metrics, including F1 measure, Jaccard index, purity, and accuracy, highlighting its capability in accurately identifying paths between similar clusters. Its average F1 measure, Jaccard index, purity, and accuracy is measured 76.87%, 56.29%, 80.29%, and 79.64%, respectively.
