The possibility of harmful activity and data theft is growing as a result of the growth in devices and data. Thus, the network’s regular users have an impact on legitimate data delivery, which lowers customer happiness and worsens network standards. The data have been saved using a variety of security procedures that have been developed in past research studies. However, harmful activity continues to engage in its illegal operations despite their efforts to safeguard data transmission in the network. As a result, a number of recent research projects have concentrated on predicting innovative techniques and processes to offer security in WSN. In comparison to existing methods, this work attempted to offer an effective tighter security for WSN and suggested an ML-Based Secured Routing Protocol (MLSRP) for WSN with improved energy efficiency and overall performance. Energy efficiency is the main requirement of WSNs, hence a clustered network is proposed where the data are routed through the cluster head nodes. In this paper, a multicriteria based decision-making (MCDM) model is used by the MLSRP to perform data routing, clustering, and cluster head election while also analyzing a number of network characteristics that might affect the quality of a node, route, and data. In NS2 software, the suggested framework is put into practice and simulated. The results are then validated to gauge performance. The observed quantitative results reveal that the proposed MLSRP method attains an improved network lifetime by 5% and network throughput of 6%. It reduces energy consumption by 40%, curtails overhead to 37%, and minimizes end-to-end delay by 30% than the other conventional methods.

In this paper, we propose a method that combines advanced machine learning with rigorous time series analysis to improve prediction accuracy by integrating different datasets, providing a prescriptive example for passenger flow prediction in urban rail transit systems. The study employs advanced machine learning algorithms and proposes a novel prediction model that combines two-stage decomposition (seasonal and trend decomposition using LOESS–ensemble empirical mode decomposition (STL-EEMD)) and gated recurrent units. First, the STL decomposition algorithm is applied to break down the preprocessed data into trend terms, periodic terms, and irregular fluctuation terms. Then, the EEMD decomposition algorithm is employed to further decompose the irregular fluctuation terms, yielding multiple IMF components and residual residuals. Subsequently, the decomposed data from STL and EEMD are partitioned into training and test sets and normalized. The training set is utilized to train the model for optimal performance in predicting subway short-time passenger flow. The synthesis of these sophisticated methodologies serves to substantially enhance both the predictive precision and the broad applicability of the forecasting models. The efficacy of the proposed approach is rigorously evaluated through its application to empirical metro passenger flow datasets from diverse urban centers, demonstrating marked superiority in predictive performance over traditional forecasting methods.
