A Topical Review on Enabling Technologies for the Internet of Medical Things: Sensors, Devices, Platforms, and Applications

The Internet of Things (IoT) is still a relatively new field of research, and its potential to be used in the healthcare and medical sectors is enormous. In the last five years, IoT has been a go-to option for various applications such as using sensors for different features, machine-to-machine communication, etc., but precisely in the medical sector, it is still lagging far behind compared to other sectors. Hence, this study emphasises IoT applications in medical fields, Medical IoT sensors and devices, IoT platforms for data visualisation, and artificial intelligence in medical applications. A systematic review considering PRISMA guidelines on research articles as well as the websites on IoMT sensors and devices has been carried out. After the year 2001, an integrated outcome of 986 articles was initially selected, and by applying the inclusion-exclusion criterion, a total of 597 articles were identified. 23 new studies have been finally found, including records from websites and citations. This review then analyses different sensor monitoring circuits in detail, considering an Intensive Care Unit (ICU) scenario, device applications, and the data management system, including IoT platforms for the patients. Lastly, detailed discussion and challenges have been outlined, and possible prospects have been presented.

A Novel Optimized Perturbation-Based Machine Learning for Preserving Privacy in Medical Data

In recent times, providing privacy to the medical dataset has been the biggest issue in medical applications. Since, in hospitals, the patient's data are stored in files, the files must be secured properly. Thus, different machine learning models were developed to overcome data privacy issues. But, those models faced some problems in providing privacy to medical data. Therefore, a novel model named Honey pot-based Modular Neural System (HbMNS) was designed in this paper. Here, the performance of the proposed design is validated with disease classification. Also, the perturbation function and the verification module are incorporated into the designed HbMNS model to provide data privacy. The presented model is implemented in a python environment. Moreover, the system outcomes are estimated before and after fixing the perturbation function. A DoS attack is launched in the system to validate the method. At last, a comparative assessment is made between executed models with other models. From the comparison, it is verified that the presented model achieved better outcomes than others.

Artificial-Intelligence-Based Decision Making for Oral Potentially Malignant Disorder Diagnosis in Internet of Medical Things Environment

Oral cancer is considered one of the most common cancer types in several counties. Earlier-stage identification is essential for better prognosis, treatment, and survival. To enhance precision medicine, Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) and deep learning (DL) models can be developed for automated oral cancer classification to improve detection rate and decrease cancer-specific mortality. This article focuses on the design of an optimal Inception-Deep Convolution Neural Network for Oral Potentially Malignant Disorder Detection (OIDCNN-OPMDD) technique in the IoMT environment. The presented OIDCNN-OPMDD technique mainly concentrates on identifying and classifying oral cancer by using an IoMT device-based data collection process. In this study, the feature extraction and classification process are performed using the IDCNN model, which integrates the Inception module with DCNN. To enhance the classification performance of the IDCNN model, the moth flame optimization (MFO) technique can be employed. The experimental results of the OIDCNN-OPMDD technique are investigated, and the results are inspected under specific measures. The experimental outcome pointed out the enhanced performance of the OIDCNN-OPMDD model over other DL models.

An Overview of Fog Data Analytics for IoT Applications

With the rapid growth in the data and processing over the cloud, it has become easier to access those data.
