However, they face different and more complex challenges than terrestrial wireless sensor networks (TWSNs). The main challenges faced by UWSNs are limited include high propagation delays, poor bandwidth, low throughput, and high energy consumption. Replacing sensor batteries in such networks becomes extremely difficult as they are usually deployed in remote areas where limited human interaction is possible. The unbalanced and inefficient usage of energy by various network nodes poses another issue, as it may reduce the applicability and feasibility of the network. Therefore, proposing Energy-Efficient Routing Protocols (E-ER-Ps) is crucial to improve the performance and lifespan of these networks. Due to the challenges mentioned earlier, this research presents an extensive analysis of several different E-ER-Ps intended for UWSNs. We compare contemporary approaches that use machine learning (ML) with conventional protocols, as ML-based approaches have shown significant potential in resolving the intricate challenges faced by UWSNs. This paper aims to present a critical review of different E-ER-Ps from various prospects for UWSNs. To better comprehend the structure and uses of these protocols, we provide an innovative taxonomy for their classification. While ML-based protocols are evaluated for their flexibility, predictive power, and overall efficiency advancements, traditional protocols are evaluated based on their routing tactics and energy-efficiency improvements. A thorough comparative analysis highlights the advantages, disadvantages, and possible uses for different protocols. Furthermore, a critical analysis of ML’s function, incorporating intelligent and adaptive routing approaches, is presented, highlighting the technology’s potential to completely alter UWSN management. To formulate and implement E-ER-Ps for UWSNs, the article concludes by highlighting the present obstacles, including the need for real-time flexibility, resilience to environmental alters, and interaction with pre-existing network infrastructures. The development of ML-based approaches, hybrid approaches that combine conventional and ML-based methodologies, and the design of protocols that can adapt dynamically to the changing circumstances of underwater habitats are highlighted as future research objectives. This research provides the foundation for future advancements in this crucial field by presenting a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art UWSN E-ER-Ps.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48547,"journal":{"name":"Journal of King Saud University-Computer and Information Sciences","volume":"36 7","pages":"Article 102128"},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2024-07-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1319157824002179/pdfft?md5=0ca24269fca8e21ff16074a33686ceaa&pid=1-s2.0-S1319157824002179-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141846029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Facing challenges in detecting small targets against complex orchard backgrounds with uneven lighting and obstructions, existing models suffer from low detection accuracy. This study introduces the YOLOv8n-CDDA citrus leaf disease detection model. The Cross-Domain Dynamic Attention (CDDA) mechanism deconstructs the backbone network’s input feature maps into sections, dynamically assigning spatial and channel attention weights to reconstruct critical information and capture the variations and weak semantic features of disease textures. The proposed Adaptive Random Mix-Cut Splicing (ARMS) image augmentation technique blends diseased leaf images with healthy citrus backgrounds, enhancing the diversity and number of background targets. To reduce computational and memory consumption, the network is streamlined through channel pruning; to compensate for the loss in accuracy from pruning, a teacher–assistant–student network format is used for knowledge distillation, where the student network learns from soft knowledge to improve disease recognition accuracy. Finally, Grad-CAM++ technology generates heatmaps of the detections, facilitating the visualization of effective features and deepening understanding of the model’s focus areas. Experimental results demonstrate that the YOLOv8n-CDDA model achieves an average accuracy of 90.89% in disease detection, with an average recall rate of 81.12%, and a mean Average Precision (mAP50) of 88.36%. Compared to the original YOLO v8n and current mainstream detection models such as YOLOv5s, SSD, and Faster-RCNN, the improvements in average accuracy are respectively 2.95%, 4.78%, 14.22%, and 21.01%; in average recall, 2.36%, 3.09%, 15.74%, and 23.27%; and in mAP50, 2.38%, 3.13%, 13.45%, and 20.91%. After pruning and distillation for lightweight adaptation, the YOLOv8n-CDDA model has a parameter size of 0.8M, requires 4.2 GFLOPs, weighs 2.0 MB, and operates at 45 fps. Compared to YOLOv8n, this represents a reduction of 2.2M in parameters, 3.9 GFLOPs, and 4 MB in model weight, with an increase of 7 fps in speed.

Ensuring reliable software usually necessitates some form of formal methods in the early stages of the development process which requires strenuous effort. Hence, researchers in the field of software reliability introduced Software Reliability Growth Models (SRGMs) as a relatively inexpensive approach to software reliability prediction. Conventional parameter estimation methods of SRGMs were ineffective and left more to be desired. Consequently, researchers sought out swarm intelligence to combat its flaws, resulting in significant improvements. While similar surveys exist within the domain, the surveys are broader in scope and do not cover many swarm intelligence algorithms. Moreover, the broader scope has resulted in the occasional omission of information regarding the design for reliability predictions. A more comprehensive survey containing 38 studies and 18 different swarm intelligence algorithms in the domain is presented. Each design proposed by the studies was systematically analyzed where relevant information including the measures used, datasets used, SRGMs used, and the effectiveness of each proposed design, were extracted and organized into tables and taxonomies to be able to identify the current trends within the domain. Some notable findings include the distance-based approach providing a high prediction accuracy and an increasing trend in hybridized variants of swarm intelligence algorithms designs to predict software reliability.

Deep learning methods are increasingly recognized as valuable tools for disease diagnosis in the biomedical field. However, current models utilizing deep networks often encounter challenges of overfitting and low accuracy, necessitating further refinement for optimal performance. To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes the introduction of two ensemble models designed for kidney stone detection in CT images. The first model, called StackedEnsembleNet, is a two-level deep stack ensemble model that effectively integrates the predictions from four base models: InceptionV3, InceptionResNetV2, MobileNet, and Xception. By leveraging the collective knowledge of these models, StackedEnsembleNet improves the accuracy and reliability of kidney stone detection. The second model PSOWeightedAvgNet, leverages the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm to determine the optimal weights for the weighted average ensemble. Through PSO, this ensemble approach assigns optimized weights to each model during the ensembling process, effectively enhancing the performance by optimizing the combination of their predictions. Experimental results conducted on a large dataset of 1799 CT images demonstrate that both StackedEnsembleNet and PSOWeightedAvgNet outperform the individual base models, achieving high accuracy rates in kidney stone detection. Furthermore, additional experiments on an unseen dataset validate the models’ ability to generalize. The comparison with previous methods confirms the superior performance of the proposed ensemble models. The paper also presents Grad-CAM visualizations and error case analysis to provide insights into the decision-making processes of the models.

For unlabeled samples, the hash autoencoder is utilized to generate pseudo-labels, followed by the reproduction of the aforementioned enhanced reconstruction process.
