Remote sensing technologies have been widely used in the contexts of land cover and land use. The image classification algorithms used in remote sensing are of paramount importance since the reliability of the result from remote sensing depends heavily on the classification accuracy. Parametric classifiers based on traditional statistics have successfully been used in remote sensing classification, but the accuracy is greatly impacted and rather constrained by the statistical distribution of the sensing data. To eliminate those constraints, new variants of support vector machine (SVM) are introduced. In this paper, we propose and implement land use classification based on improved SVM-enabled radial basis function (RBF) and SVM-Linear for image sensing. The proposed variants are applied for the cross-validation to determine how the optimization of parameters can affect the accuracy. The accuracy assessment includes both training and test sets, addressing the problems of overfitting and underfitting. Furthermore, it is not trivial to determine the generalization problem merely based on a training dataset. Thus, the improved SVM-RBF and SVM-Linear also demonstrate the outstanding generalization performance. The proposed SVM-RBF and SVM-Linear variants have been compared with the traditional algorithms (Maximum Likelihood Classifier (MLC) and Minimum Distance Classifier (MDC)), which are highly compatible with remote sensing images. Furthermore, the MLC and MDC are mathematically modeled and characterized with new features. Also, we compared the proposed improved SVM-RBF and SVM-Linear with the current state-of-the-art algorithms. Based on the results, it is confirmed that proposed variants have higher overall accuracy, reliability, and fault-tolerance than traditional as well as latest state-of-the-art algorithms.
Organizations share an evolving interest in adopting a cloud computing approach for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Integrating IoT devices and cloud computing technology is considered as an effective approach to storing and managing the enormous amount of data generated by various devices. However, big data security of these organizations presents a challenge in the IoT-cloud architecture. To overcome security issues, we propose a cloud-enabled IoT environment supported by multifactor authentication and lightweight cryptography encryption schemes to protect big data system. The proposed hybrid cloud environment is aimed at protecting organizations' data in a highly secure manner. The hybrid cloud environment is a combination of private and public cloud. Our IoT devices are divided into sensitive and nonsensitive devices. Sensitive devices generate sensitive data, such as healthcare data; whereas nonsensitive devices generate nonsensitive data, such as home appliance data. IoT devices send their data to the cloud via a gateway device. Herein, sensitive data are split into two parts: one part of the data is encrypted using RC6, and the other part is encrypted using the Fiestel encryption scheme. Nonsensitive data are encrypted using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption scheme. Sensitive and nonsensitive data are respectively stored in private and public cloud to ensure high security. The use of multifactor authentication to access the data stored in the cloud is also proposed. During login, data users send their registered credentials to the Trusted Authority (TA). The TA provides three levels of authentication to access the stored data: first-level authentication-read file, second-level authentication-download file, and thirdlevel authentication-download file from the hybrid cloud. We implement the proposed cloud-IoT architecture in the NS3 network simulator. We evaluated the performance of the proposed architecture using metrics such as computational time, security strength, encryption time, and decryption time.
