However, UAVs have limited operational duration owing to energy constraints, dramatically diminishing their working efficiency. Moreover, their flight data is recorded and transmitted in unencrypted text, making it vulnerable to privacy breaches. We propose a privacy-preserving dual-model deep reinforcement learning approach (PD-DRL) to end it. It not only adaptively employs contextual knowledge to switch flight modes to enhance UAVs’ working efficiency but also safeguards the confidentiality of sensitive information during model training. PD-DRL consists of privacy-preserving deep reinforcement learning (P-DRL) and dual-model deep reinforcement learning (D-DRL). The former may integrate two distinct policies to switch between data collection and charging modes adaptively, hence optimizing the UAVs’ flight route. The latter can produce synthetic data to replace raw data during model training, thereby protecting the privacy of sensitive information. Ultimately, we conduct security discussions and comprehensive experiments to assess the effectiveness of PD-DRL. The discussion and experimental results demonstrate that PD-DRL surpasses other comparative algorithms, confirming its efficacy and safety.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":29968,"journal":{"name":"Internet of Things","volume":"30 ","pages":"Article 101520"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143348285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As technologies such as 5G wireless networks and the Internet of Things (IoT) drive unprecedented complexity in these environments, the demand for flexible and effective trust evaluation systems has grown exponentially. This paper presents a Fuzzy-based System for Assessment of Relational Trust (FSART), which utilizes fuzzy logic to evaluate trust levels between entities. We implemented two models (FSARTM1 and FSARTM2) considering three parameters: Influence (If), Importance (Ip), and Similarity (Sm) for FSARTM1, while for FSARTM2 we considered Reputation (Rp) as an additional parameter. The simulation results indicate that increasing the values of these parameters leads to a corresponding increase in Relational Trust (RT). For FSARTM1, when Ip is 0.9, all RT values exceed 0.5, while in FSARTM2 when If is 0.9 and moderate values of other parameters, RT consistently remains above 0.5. These results suggest that FSARTM2 provides a more accurate assessment by incorporating Rp, making it a more robust tool for trust evaluation in complex digital ecosystems, including social media, collaborative environments, and IoT systems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":29968,"journal":{"name":"Internet of Things","volume":"30 ","pages":"Article 101528"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143348284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Historically, the infamous Mirai botnet and its variants have exploited IoT vulnerabilities to carry out successful DDoS attacks. In recent years, deep learning models, especially Vision Transformers, have gained significant attention due to their exceptional performance in image classification tasks. To optimize detection and alert mechanisms, this novel study proposes a DDoSViT framework. This Vision Transformer (ViT)-based multi-vector DDoS and DoS attack detection framework converts attack flows into images and trains Vision Transformers on an attack image dataset. To validate the proposed framework, this study extensively reviewed diverse datasets and selected CICIoT2023 and CICIoMT2024 datasets ensuring these contain real-world attack scenarios and multi-vector real attacks. The proposed methodology and rigorous experimentation demonstrated 99.50% accuracy in multi-class classification across 23 different variants of DDoS and DoS attacks, outperforming contemporary models. The model’s performance was assessed using metrics such as accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score.

This growth necessitates addressing challenges related to data security, integrity, and regulatory frameworks for emerging applications and integrations.

This method not only aims to predict the timing of attacks but also considers the dynamic nature of attack–defense confrontations, adaptively suggesting defense strategies. The paper constructs a strategy evolution probability model for both attackers and defenders based on the infectious disease model and analyzes the interactive process of confrontation between them. It then establishes a network attack time prediction model based on FlipIt games and proposes an attack time strategy prediction algorithm that incorporates exponential probability distribution into the revenue calculation process to predict the timing of network attacks. Finally, by setting up simulation environments and conducting simulations using MATLAB, the proposed model is verified to effectively analyze the attack time of the virus and provide corresponding defense strategies in real-time. In the process of attack and defense, to achieve optimal attack benefits, attackers should prioritize selecting low-frequency and low-cost attack strategies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":29968,"journal":{"name":"Internet of Things","volume":"30 ","pages":"Article 101522"},"PeriodicalIF":6.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143348283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A UGV was deployed in a wooded area with dense obstacles, and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) was used to scan its environment. The proposed IoT-based UGV framework comprises an integrated monitoring platform, an NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier, a global positioning system, LiDAR, the AFAPF algorithm, a battery, and a UGV control system; together, these ensure the stable movement of the UGV in unknown environments. In the proposed AFAPF obstacle avoidance method, the distance between the UGV and an obstacle and the density of the LiDAR point cloud representing an obstacle are input to an adaptive fuzzy decision-making method, which adjusts the expansion radius of each obstacle. This enables the UGV to immediately and effectively avoid obstacles.
