  • AI-Based fault detection and predictive maintenance for power transmission networks in remote areas using catboost for enhanced reliability
    Dac-Nhuong Le, Bakri Hossain Awaji, Osamah AlDhafer, Khalid Alkhattabi, Mohamed Ghouse, et al.
    Intelligent Data Analysis, 2026
    Power transmission network plays a crucial role in maintaining the stability and reliability of electrical systems. Fault detection and predictive maintenance are essential to ensure continuous operation and minimize downtimes, but traditional fault detection methods face challenges, particularly in remote areas where manual inspections are impractical. This paper presents a framework to enhance the steadiness and efficacy of power transmission networks through advanced fault detection and predictive maintenance. The proposed framework begins with data collection from power transmission sensors, including voltage, current, and temperature readings, along with historical fault records. Next, data pre-processing is performed using median imputation to handle missing values and categorical encoding to transform non-numeric data into numerical form. Feature extraction follows, where time-domain features like Peak-to-Peak Value, RMS, and Zero-Crossing Rate are computed to detect potential faults. The CatBoost model is then trained on the extracted features, and hyperparameter optimization is conducted using the Coati Optimization Algorithm. Once trained, the model performs fault detection and prediction, identifying faults such as Transformer Failures, Overheating, and Line Breakages. The model is assessed using metrics like accuracy of 99.42%, precision of 99.37%, recall of 99.40%, and F1-score of 99.38%. The framework achieves high performance in detecting faults and can be deployed in power transmission systems for proactive maintenance, reducing reliance on manual inspections, improving system reliability, and addressing challenges in remote locations.
  • A Deep Learning Framework with Learning without Forgetting for Intelligent Surveillance in IoT-enabled Home Environments in Smart Cities
    Surjeet Dalal, Neeraj Dahiya, Amit Verma, Neetu Faujdar, Sarita Rathee, et al.
    Recent Advances in Computer Science and Communications, 2026
    Background: Internet of Things (IoT) technology in smart urban homes has revolutionised sophisticated monitoring. This progress uses interconnected devices and systems to improve security, resource management, and resident safety. Smart cities use technology to improve efficiency, sustainability, and quality. Internet of Things-enabled intelligent monitoring technologies are key to this goal. Objectives: Intelligent monitoring in IoT-enabled homes in smart cities improves security, convenience, and quality of life from advanced technologies. Using live monitoring and risk identification tools to quickly discover and resolve security breaches and suspicious activity to protect citizens. Intelligent devices allow homeowners to remotely control lighting, security locks, and surveillance cameras. Using advanced technologies to regulate heating, cooling, and lighting based on occupancy and usage. Method: This study introduces a deep learning architecture that uses LwF (Learning without Forgetting) to keep patterns while absorbing new data. The authors use IoT devices to collect and analyse data in real-time for monitoring and surveillance. They use sophisticated data preprocessing to handle IoT devices' massive data. The authors train the deep learning model with historical and real-time data and cross-validation to ensure resilience. Result: The proposed model has been validated on two different Robloflow datasets of 7382 images. The proposed model gains an accuracy level of 98.27%. The proposed Yolo-LwF model outperforms both the original Yolo and LwF models in terms of detection speed and adaptive learning. Conclusion: By raising the bar for intelligent monitoring solutions in smart cities, the suggested system is ideal for real-time, adaptive surveillance in IoT-enabled households. By embracing adaptability and knowledge retention, authors envision heightened security and safety levels in urban settings.

  • Optimized XGBoost Model with Whale Optimization Algorithm for Detecting Anomalies in Manufacturing
    Surjeet Dalal, Uma Rani, Umesh Kumar Lilhore, Neeraj Dahiya, Reenu Batra, et al.
    Journal of Computational and Cognitive Engineering, 2025
    Anomalies and defects in the manufacturing process hinder operating efficiency and product quality. The Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) optimizes the XGBoost model for better anomaly identification by iteratively refining hyperparameters. Experiments using real-world manufacturing datasets prove proposed model works. Comparing the proposed model to traditional anomaly detection methods shows its superior performance in industry patent concept. The optimized XGBoost model's interpretability and anomaly detection features are also discussed. In this paper, WOA is applied in this work to optimize hyperparameters of XGBoost, a robust gradient boosting technique for accurate anomaly detection in manufacturing systems. Optimized XGBoost gained 1.00 precision value, 0.9 recall value, and 0.96 f1-score for class 0.0 and gained a 0.95 precision value, 1.00 recall value, and a 0.97 f1-score for class 1.0. The proposed model gained 0.993 Train Score and 0.964 Test Score. Our findings suggest that integrating XGBoost with the WOA may uncover manufacturing process irregularities. Optimization improves detection accuracy and provides a flexible and interpretable framework, helping modern industrial processes maintain quality and efficiency. This research encourages machine learning optimization for industrial patent applications, advancing anomaly detection methods.
