The rapid expansion of IoT networks, combined with the flexibility of Software-Defined Networking (SDN), has significantly increased the complexity of traffic management, requiring accurate classification to ensure optimal quality of service (QoS). Existing traffic classification techniques often rely on manual feature selection, limiting adaptability and efficiency in dynamic environments. This paper presents a novel traffic classification framework for SDN-based IoT networks, introducing a Two-Level Fused Network integrated with a self-adaptive Manta Ray Foraging Optimization (SMRFO) algorithm.

Accurate prediction of AS events is essential for understanding various physiological aspects, including disease progression and prognosis. Machine learning (ML) techniques have been widely employed in bioinformatics to address this challenge.

This study aims to determine the prevalence of alexithymia and its relationships with socio-demographics and depression among medical students. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among medical students at King Khalid University (KKU), Saudi Arabia.

This can cause performance and availability issues, which can be dangerous in critical applications such as in the healthcare sector. In this paper, we analyze the efficacy of the fog layer in different architectures in a real-world environment by examining performance metrics for the cloud and fog layers using different numbers of IoT devices.
