Human Activity Recognition (HAR) is crucial for smart healthcare applications. Existing frameworks dealing with single modality of data lead to decreased reliability and accuracy. This article proposes a multi-level feature fusion technique using multi-head CNN with CBAM for visual data and ConvLSTM for time-sensitive multi-source sensor information. Experimental results show that the developed HAR framework outperforms existing methods.
Human Activity Recognition (HAR) has become a crucial element for smart healthcare applications due to the fast adoption of wearable sensors and mobile technologies. Most of the existing human activity recognition frameworks deal with a single modality of data that degrades the reliability and recognition accuracy of the system for heterogeneous data sources. In this article, we propose a multi-level feature fusion technique for multimodal human activity recognition using multi-head Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) with Convolution Block Attention Module (CBAM) to process the visual data and Convolutional Long Short Term Memory (ConvLSTM) for dealing with the time-sensitive multi-source sensor information. The architecture is developed to be able to analyze and retrieve channel and spatial dimension features through the use of three branches of CNN along with CBAM for visual information. The ConvLSTM network is designed to capture temporal features from the multiple sensors' time-series data for efficient activity recognition. An open-access multimodal HAR dataset named UP-Fall detection dataset is utilized in experiments and evaluations to measure the performance of the developed fusion architecture. Finally, we deployed an Internet of Things (IoT) system to test the proposed fusion network in real-world smart healthcare application scenarios. The findings from the experimental results reveal that the developed multimodal HAR framework surpasses the existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of multiple performance metrics.

Privacy protection in intelligent vehicle networking: A novel federated learning algorithm based on information fusion

Zhiguo Qu, Yang Tang, Ghulam Muhammad, Prayag Tiwari

Summary: This paper proposes a novel personalized federated learning algorithm based on information fusion to solve the problem of information fusion and sharing in intelligent vehicle networking. The algorithm achieves personalized privacy protection by grading users' privacy based on their preferences and adding noise that satisfies their privacy preferences. It performs collaborative training of deep models among different in-vehicle terminals using a lightweight dynamic convolutional network architecture to generate personalized models. By keeping the last layer local instead of sharing all model parameters, it adds another layer of data confidentiality and makes it difficult for adversaries to infer the target vehicle terminal's image.

Anichur Rahman, Md Jahidul Islam, Shahab S. Band, Ghulam Muhammad, Kamrul Hasan, Prayag Tiwari

Summary: Recent studies have highlighted the importance of new technologies such as Blockchain (BC), Software Defined Networking (SDN), and Smart Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). These technologies offer data integrity, confidentiality, and integrity, particularly in industrial applications. Cloud computing, a well-established technology, is used to exchange sensitive information and provide remote access to computing and storage resources in the IIoT. However, cloud computing also presents significant security risks and challenges. To tackle these issues, this paper proposes a cloud computing platform for the IIoT that combines BC and SDN. The proposed architecture, named DistB-SDCloud, utilizes distributed BC for enhanced security, privacy, and integrity while maintaining flexibility and scalability. Furthermore, an SDN method is introduced to improve the durability, stability, and load balancing of the cloud infrastructure. The effectiveness of this implementation is experimentally tested using various parameters and monitoring attacks on the system.

Fast metric multi-view hashing for multimedia retrieval

Jian Zhu, Pengbo Hu, Bingqian Li, Yi Zhou

Summary: The acquisition of multi-view hash representation for heterogeneous data is highly important for multimedia retrieval. Current approaches suffer from limited retrieval precision due to insufficient integration of multi-view features and failure to effectively utilize metric information from diverse samples. In this paper, we propose an innovative method called Fast Metric Multi-View Hashing (FMMVH), which demonstrates the superiority of gate-based fusion over traditional methods. We also introduce a novel deep metric loss function to leverage metric information from dissimilar samples. By optimizing and employing model compression techniques, our FMMVH method significantly outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods on benchmark datasets, with up to 7.47% improvement in mean Average Precision (mAP).
