However, traditional machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL) methods often struggle with the dynamic and complex nature of IoT environments, where attack patterns are non-linear, continuously evolving, and context-dependent. These models typically require large labeled datasets and retraining to adapt to new threats, which limits their responsiveness and scalability. Additionally, their high computational demands make real-time deployment on resource-constrained IoT devices challenging. Furthermore, many ML/DL models exhibit poor generalization, performing well in controlled scenarios but failing to maintain accuracy across diverse, real-world IoT settings with varying devices, protocols, and data distributions. To address these issues, this work proposes the Dwarf Mongoose-Chaos Optimized Deep Belief (DCODB) Framework, which combines advanced preprocessing, feature selection (FS), and classification techniques. Initial preprocessing involves Min-Max Normalization and One-Hot Encoding to scale numerical features and transform categorical data for effective model input. FS is optimized by the novel Dwarf Mongoose-Chaos Fusion Optimization (DMCFO), which is a swarm intelligence algorithm that leverages chaotic maps to improve the effectiveness of the Dwarf Mongoose Optimization Algorithm (DMO), reducing dimensionality and improving classification accuracy. The refined features are then classified using a Deep Belief Network (DBN), which processes hierarchical feature representations to differentiate between normal and anomalous behaviors in the NSL-KDD dataset. The proposed framework has been thoroughly assessed using diverse metrics, demonstrating its effectiveness in anomaly detection by achieving above 99 % Balanced Accuracy, along with exceptional Precision, Recall, F1 Score, Specificity, and the AUC-ROC curve. These high-performance metrics affirm the model's capability to deliver reliable and scalable anomaly detection in IoT environments, strengthening overall security.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9774,"journal":{"name":"Chemometrics and Intelligent Laboratory Systems","volume":"268 ","pages":"Article 105558"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145464518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its medicinal content and value vary from one species to another. As a result, consumers need a quick and efficient method to distinguish between species. This paper introduces a method for species classification using two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2DCOS) images combined with deep learning (DL) models. Initially, 345 thin-section samples of five different black teas were prepared, and their near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) data were obtained. From this preprocessed one-dimensional NIRS data, 8280 2DCOS contour images and contour fill images were generated. MobileNet model with various bottleneck residual blocks was constructed, and trained using these 2DCOS images as samples, achieving a classification accuracy of 100 %. The model testing results indicated that the optimal NIRS data preprocessing method and 2DCOS image format are Standard Normal Variate transformation (SNV) and contour fill image. Furthermore, the classification results of one-dimensional NIRS data, 2DOCS matrix data, and 2DCOS image data were compared, showing that the 2DCOS images provide higher classification accuracy. Finally, comparative experiments were conducted between the MobileNet model and other deep learning models, demonstrating that the MobileNet model has the advantages of fewer parameters, lower computational load, high accuracy, and fast convergence speed. Therefore, combining 2DCOS images with the MobileNet model for black tea classification is effective. This paper offers a promising approach for the identification of black tea species, with extensive potential applications in species classification.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":9774,"journal":{"name":"Chemometrics and Intelligent Laboratory Systems","volume":"268 ","pages":"Article 105580"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2026-01-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145569576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluates the impact of four drying methods: oven drying (OD), vacuum drying (VD), freeze-drying (FD), and microwave drying (MD) on the physicochemical, antioxidant, and microbiological properties of dried caper buds. Salting reduced the initial moisture content from 508.50 % to 168.59 % (db), while drying further decreased it to approximately 9 %. Drying time varied significantly, with MD achieving the shortest duration (0.19–0.75h) and OD requiring the longest (reaching 49.66h). FD exhibited the highest energy consumption (60.77 kWh/kg), followed by VD, while OD and MD were the least energy-intensive (0.54–3.10 kWh/kg and 1.34–2.18 kWh/kg, respectively). FD preserved the most chlorophyll (193.63 μg/g DW) and total phenolic content (28.98 mgGAE/g DW), whereas MD at 200 W resulted in the lowest TPC (9.88 mgGAE/g DW). FD samples also showed superior antioxidant activities in both ABTS and FRAP assays. In contrast, OD and MD increased browning and degraded quality attributes. Multivariate analyses (PCA and clustering) highlighted FD as optimal for preserving quality, while MD was the most detrimental.

Nevertheless, redundant information abounds in high-dimensional spectral data, which affects classification accuracy. To address this challenge, this study proposes a novel feature extraction method ― Differential amplification singular value decomposition (DA-SVD). This method optimizes the feature projection direction by amplifying both the individual differences among samples and the overall differences between classes, thereby achieving effective dimensionality reduction of spectral data. By applying DA-SVD, the classification accuracy of KNN, SVM, and RF models on the test set significantly increased from 36 %, 34 %, and 30 % (based on the original data) to 98 % for all models, with precision, sensitivity, and F1 score reaching 97.86 %, 98.14 %, and 97.86 %, respectively, and all outperforming conventional feature extraction methods such as LDA, SVD, and PCA. The experimental results further demonstrated that DA-SVD could achieve satisfactory classification performance without additional preprocessing steps (outlier detection and spectral denoising). In addition, the 10-fold cross-validation results confirmed the stability of the DA-SVD method, and validation on public datasets further demonstrated its generalization ability and applicability.
