Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) embed computation and communication capability into its core to regulate physical processes and seamlessly mediate between the cyber and the physical world for various control and monitoring tasks. Health CPS, a variant of CPS in the healthcare sector, acts as a health monitoring system to dynamically capture, process, and analyze health sensor data through integrated internet of things (IoT)-enabled cyber-physical processes. These systems can suitably support patients suffering from non-communicable diseases (NCDs) or who are at risk of suffering from those. Identifying the risk of NCDs, such as heart disease and diabetes, requires artificial intelligence (AI) techniques into the core of health CPS. Recently, there has been growing interest to incorporate machine learning into CPS, which can facilitate the disease classification, detection, monitoring, and prediction of several NCDs. However, there is a shortage of visible work that focus on early-stage risk prediction of these diseases. In this work, we propose a novel machine learning based health CPS framework that addresses the challenge of effectively processing the wearable IoT sensor data for early risk prediction of diabetes as an example of NCDs. In the experiment, a verified diabetic dataset has been used for training, while the testing has been performed on an artificially generated data collection from sensors. The experiment with several machine learning algorithms shows the effectiveness of the proposed approach in achieving the maximum precision from the Random Tree algorithm, which requires a minimum time of 0.01s to construct a model and obtains 94% accuracy to predict the probability of diabetes at an early point.
Digital twin (DT) has gained success in various industries, and it is now getting attention in the healthcare industry in the form of well-being digital twin (WDT). In this paper, we present an overview of WDT to understand its potential scope, architecture and impact. We then discuss the definition and the benefits of WDT. After that, we present the evolution of DT frameworks. Subsequently we discuss the challenges, the different types, the drawbacks, and potential application areas of WDT. Finally we present the requirements for a WDT framework extracted from the literature.
Internet of Things (IoT) has been the driving force for many smart city applications. The huge volume of IoT data generated from these applications require efficient processing to get the insight, which poses significant difficulty. Data mining and machine learning (DM) algorithms are used to minimize such difficulty. However, it is still very challenging to select a particular DM algorithm that can process a dynamic IoT dataset based on some application-specific goals to achieve better accuracy. This paper proposes a knowledge-driven framework that considers the knowledge of datasets, available DM algorithms, and application goals to select the suitable DM algorithm for performing a target data processing task. This work considers data from cultural domain, health domain, and transportation domain in the experiment. The results show that the proposed approach dynamically selects the best-suited DM algorithms for the available datasets and target goals that exhibits satisfactory performance in obtaining accurate results compared to the existing work. The proposed approach not only provides flexibility in conducting dynamic IoT data mining tasks, but also reduces the complexity that would otherwise be necessary while adopting the traditional data mining approaches.
