Secure and interoperable electronic health record exchange using blockchain and ECDHE-based access control

10.11591/ijai.v15.i1.pp310-321
Krishna Prasad Narasimha Rao , Chinnaiyan Selvan
Electronic health records (EHRs) act as comprehensive records of health related transactions and essential resources of data in the healthcare sector. However, the integrity and security problems of EHR continue to be inflexible. The architecture of blockchain-enabled EHR addresses the issues of integrity efficiently. This paper developed the decentralized patient centric healthcare data management (PCHDM) system using blockchain enabled EHR architecture for addressing problems with access control, record privacy and data confidentiality. This framework places the patient at the control center, ensuring secure storage of EHR records and obtaining efficient data management through the integration of blockchain and interplanetary file system (IPFS). To prevent access by unauthorized users, the proposed elliptic curve Diffie-Hellman ephemeral (ECDHE) mechanism incorporates smart contract-enabled access control for managing EHR transactions and enforcing access strategies. This architecture incorporates hyperledger fabric endorsement policies (HFRP) to address scalability problems while preserving patient privacy and securing medical data. The developed method secures the EHR data and facilitates the data exchange across heterogeneous healthcare platforms, ensuring standard communication among different EHR systems. The architecture is assessed with parameters of time for block creation, the computational overhead of transaction with encryption key size and EHR upload and download time.

Efficient data streaming in dynamic vehicular networks: a hybrid controller for seamless connectivity

10.11591/ijai.v15.i1.pp229-236
Prathibha Thimmappa , Mayuri Kundu
The demand for highly efficient data transmission is being increasingly demanded for dynamic vehicular networks, especially in the case of internet-of-vehicle (IoV). The current data transmission methods are known to encounter inefficiencies in terms of unreliable routing and restricted scalability. Evolving studies have found artificial intelligence (AI) based schemes more suitable to address these issues; however, there are no significant innovations towards developing a potential framework that can not only increase data transmission performance but also minimize the analytical overheads of AI. Hence, this paper presents a novel baseline framework by introducing an optimized controller structure at anchor points with the inclusion of novel ideologies of orientation degree and selection of mediating node. The proposed model witnesses 32.3 dB of signal quality, 857 kbps throughput, 81 ms delay, and 171 ms of response time, exhibiting much better performance in contrast to the frequently used data transmission method. The proposed model contributes to a solid foundation for any futuristic AI model for efficient and reliable data transmission in IoV.

The theft of pratima in Balinese temples threatens the spiritual and cultural balance of the community. These sacred objects, regarded as manifestations of God in Hinduism, hold profound religious significance, and their loss represents both material and spiritual desecration. To address this issue, this study investigates a security system that leverages image enhancement for low-light detection. Four techniques—contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE), adaptive histogram equalization (AHE), histogram equalization (HE), and gamma correction—were evaluated to improve image quality. CLAHE yielded the lowest mean squared error (MSE) of 21.16 and the highest peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of 38.13 dB. For object detection, VGG-19 and AlexNet were assessed. The best configuration, VGG-19 with HE, reached 83.33% accuracy and 93.75% recall, and achieved a receiver operating characteristic area under the curve (ROC AUC) of 0.90±0.02 across five runs. Thresholds derived from the ROC analysis were selected using the Youden J statistic to balance sensitivity and specificity. The approach outperformed lightweight and classical baselines in AUC, indicating superior discrimination under low illumination. These findings show that superior image quality does not always align with higher detection accuracy, and they highlight the importance of pairing effective enhancement with robust detectors for temple security. The study contributes practical insights for preserving Balinese cultural and spiritual heritage by strengthening efforts to protect pratima against theft.

Gradient descent optimization based weighted federated learning for privacy-preserving framework

10.11591/ijai.v15.i1.pp878-887
Gururaj Prakash Murthy , Chandrashekhar Pomu Chavan
Federated learning (FL) is a disseminated machine learning (ML) paradigm that gained significant consideration in modern days, particularly in a domain of the internet of things (IoT). FL saves communication bandwidth when compared to centralized ML processes by eliminating the need to transmit raw client data to a central server, thereby enhancing data privacy. Nevertheless, participant privacy is still compromised through inference attacks and similar threats. Additionally, a data excellence provided through clients can differs significantly, and excessive inclusion of low-quality data during training may degrade the overall performance of the global model. Hence, this research introduces a gradient descent optimization assisted weighted federated learning (GDO-WFL) method for privacy preservation. The proposed GDO-WFL approach is significantly efficient as it strengthens privacy preservation through reducing exposure to inference attacks and optimises gradient updates for secure learning. Through weighting client contributions based on data quality, an undesirable effect of low-quality data can be minimised, helping to maintain a strength as well as accuracy of the global model. The experimental results illustrate a proposed GDO-WFL approach maintains an overall accuracy of 99.3 and 91.5% on MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets as compared to the existing method of FedlabX method.

10.11591/ijai.v15.i1.pp247-256
Shilpa Shilpa , Thiruvenkadam Prasanth
In vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs), ensuring secure and reliable communication is essential due to the growing threat of cyber-attacks. As attacks can disrupt data transmission and compromise user privacy and network integrity, it is vital to develop robust security solutions. Hence, this work introduces a trust-based vehicular security (TVS) model, which leverages trust metrics to enhance VANET security. The main objective was to establish secure connections between vehicles and infrastructure nodes, effectively mitigating attacks while maintaining higher throughput. The methodology integrated a dynamic trust evaluation model to prevent malicious activities and ensure secure data transmission. The TVS model’s performance was compared to an existing VANET model, showing improved results in terms of detection rate, misclassification rate, and throughput. The findings demonstrate an average misclassification rate of 22.75%, a detection rate of 14.77%, and a throughput of 11.45%, highlighting the superior effectiveness of the TVS model in attack-prone environments when compared with existing VANET models. The TVS model provides a promising security solution for VANETs, offering enhanced protection against denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and spoofing (cyber-attacks) with better accuracy and network performance. The novelty lies in the dynamic, multi-trust-based approach for secure communication in vehicular networks.

Fatima Zahrae Saber , Ali Choukri , Mohamed Amnai , Abderrahim Waga
Record linkage is considered a fundamental process for ensuring data quality and reliability, with critical applications in domains such as healthcare, finance, and commerce. A machine learning-based approach for optimizing record linkage in structured datasets is presented in this paper. By integrating hybrid blocking methods (combining standard blocking and sorted neighborhood approaches) with advanced similarity measures, computational overhead is significantly reduced while high accuracy is maintained. The performance of TabNet, a deep learning model designed for tabular data, is compared with traditional deep neural networks (DNNs) in the classification phase. Experimental results on a synthetic dataset of 5,000 records demonstrate that comparable precision and recall are achieved by TabNet to DNNs while execution time is reduced by over 79%. The scalability and efficiency of the proposed method are highlighted by these findings, making it well-suited for large-scale data management tasks. Practical and computationally efficient solutions for record linkage in the era of big data are contributed to by this work.

Kiruthika R. , Krishnaveni Sakkarapani
Community detection is one of the most significant research areas in network analysis, which helps to understand the internal structure of large networks. This work utilizes the traditional community detection methods on a keyword co-occurrence graph derived from the Scopus bibliographic database. This research article primarily focused on the index keywords of deep learning driven publications obtained from three major network Scopus bibliometric datasets (SBD), namely SBD_1 as 2006-2013, SBD_2 as 2014-2016, and SBD_3 as 2017. For this proposed model framework, the existing traditional algorithms, including Louvain, greedy modularity optimization (GMO), Leiden, Infomap, speaker-listener label propagation algorithm (SLPA), Walktrap, SpinGlass, K-Clique, and Clauset, Newman and Moore (CNM) methods are applied to detect communities from the network and carried out through Python. Comparisons among these algorithms, Leiden, SpinGlass, and Louvain are considered as better algorithms for our work based on the detected communities, modularity score and other metrics to evaluate the performance of detected communities from the network. This research proposes an ideology for the selection process of algorithms that depends on different factors like network characteristics, network structure, dataset size, and computational efficiency. This analysis suggests a unique perspective on the effectiveness of each method in the Scopus bibliometric network and its potential to enhance research topic exploration.

The growing need to preserve cognitive health in aging populations has intensified interest in adaptive digital interventions that provide personalized and interpretable support. This study presents a web-based cognitive stimulation system for older adults integrating a multilayer perceptron (MLP) classifier, expert-derived symbolic rules, and explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) techniques, including Shapley additive explanations (SHAP) and local interpretable model-agnostic explanations (LIME). The platform was evaluated through a 24-week intervention involving 150 participants aged 65 years and older, combining baseline cognitive profiling, rule-guided recommendation logic, and neural prediction to support individualized task allocation. Compared with a control group, participants in the intervention arm showed statistically significant improvements in cognitive outcomes (p <0.05), with measurable gains in memory- and attention-related tasks. The explainability component enabled examination of model behavior at the level of individual features through feature attribution analysis and symbolic consistency checks, supporting interpretation beyond aggregate performance metrics. Unlike approaches dependent on high-end extended reality (XR) infrastructures or game centered interaction, the system was implemented to operate under low connectivity conditions and was tested with participants from diverse educational backgrounds. This hybrid configuration provides an interpretable basis for cognitive support initiatives adaptable to community settings contexts.

One major difficulty in pervasive computing is trapped human detection in search and rescue (SAR) scenarios. Accurately identifying trapped individuals is challenging due to noisy data and the curse of dimensionality. When non-line-of-sight (NLOS) conditions are present during catastrophic occurrences, the curse of dimensionality can result in blind spots in detections because of noise and uncorrelated data. Because machine learning algorithms are incredibly accurate, this work focuses on using ultra wideband (UWB) radar waves to detect individuals in NLOS scenarios and leveraging wireless communication to harmonize information. The paper uses ensemble methods to extract features using independent component analysis (ICA) and evaluate classification performance on both static and dynamic datasets. The testing results confirm the effectiveness of the proposed strategy, with classification accuracies of 87.20% for dynamic data and 88.00% for static data. Lastly, during SAR operations, our approach can assist engineers and scientists in making quick decisions.
