An intelligent internet of things-based secure healthcare framework using blockchain technology with an optimal deep learning model

摘要

Today, the internet of things (IoT) is becoming more common and finds applications in several domains, especially in the healthcare sector. Due to the rising demands of IoT, a massive quantity of sensing data gets generated from diverse sensing devices. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are vital for providing a scalable and precise analysis of data in real time. But the design and development of a useful big data analysis technique face a few challenges, like centralized architecture, security, and privacy, resource constraints, and the lack of adequate training data. On the other hand, the rising blockchain technology offers a decentralized architecture. It enables secure sharing of data and resources to the different nodes of the IoT network and is promoted for removing centralized control and resolving the problems of AI. This study develops an optimal deep-learning-based secure blockchain (ODLSB) enabled intelligent IoT and healthcare diagnosis model. The proposed model involves three major processes: secure transaction, hash value encryption, and medical diagnosis. The ODLSB technique comprises the orthogonal particle swarm optimization (OPSO) algorithm for the secret sharing of medical images. In addition, the hash value encryption process takes place using neighborhood indexing sequence (NIS) algorithm. At last, the optimal deep neural network (ODNN) is applied as a classification model to diagnose the diseases. The utilization of OPSO algorithm for secret sharing and optimal parameter tuning process shows the novelty of the work. We carried out detailed experiments to validate the outcome of the proposed method, and several aspects of the results are considered. At the time of the diagnosis process, the OPSO-DNN model has yielded superior results, with the highest sensitivity (92.75%), specificity (91.42%), and accuracy (93.68%).
