Abstract Privacy-preserving data mining (PPDM) is a novel approach that has emerged in the market to take care of privacy issues. The intention of PPDM is to build up data-mining techniques without raising the risk of mishandling of the data exploited to generate those schemes. The conventional works include numerous techniques, most of which employ some form of transformation on the original data to guarantee privacy preservation. However, these schemes are quite multifaceted and memory intensive, thus leading to restricted exploitation of these methods. Hence, this paper intends to develop a novel PPDM technique, which involves two phases, namely, data sanitization and data restoration. Initially, the association rules are extracted from the database before proceeding with the two phases. In both the sanitization and restoration processes, key extraction plays a major role, which is selected optimally using Opposition Intensity-based Cuckoo Search Algorithm, which is the modified format of Cuckoo Search Algorithm. Here, four research issues, such as hiding failure rate, information preservation rate, and false rule generation, and degree of modification are minimized using the adopted sanitization and restoration processes.

Computer vision applications require choosing operators and their parameters, in order to provide the best outcomes. Often, the users quarry on expert knowledge and must experiment many combinations to find manually the best one. As performance, time and accuracy are important, it is necessary to automate parameter optimization at least for crucial operators. In this paper, a novel approach based on an adaptive discrete cuckoo search algorithm (ADCS) is proposed. It automates the process of algorithms’ setting and provides optimal parameters for vision applications. This work reconsiders a discretization problem to adapt the cuckoo search algorithm and presents the procedure of parameter optimization. Some experiments on real examples and comparisons to other metaheuristic-based approaches: particle swarm optimization (PSO), reinforcement learning (RL) and ant colony optimization (ACO) show the efficiency of this novel method.

Privacy preservation in data publishing is the major topic of research in the field of data security. Data publication in privacy preservation provides methodologies for publishing useful information; simultaneously the privacy of the sensitive data has to be preserved. This work can handle any number of sensitive attributes. The major security breaches are membership, identity and attribute disclosure. In this paper, a novel approach based on slicing that adheres to the principle of k-anonymity and l-diversity is introduced. The proposed work withstands all the privacy threats by the incorporation of k-means and cuckoo-search algorithm. The experimental results with respect to suppression ratio, execution time and information loss are satisfactory, when compared with the existing approaches.

Vehicular Adhoc Networks (VANET) are thought-about as a mainstay in Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). For an efficient vehicular Adhoc network, broadcasting i.e. sharing a safety related message across all vehicles and infrastructure throughout the network is pivotal. Hence an efficient TDMA based MAC protocol for VANETs would serve the purpose of broadcast scheduling. At the same time, high mobility, influential traffic density, and an altering network topology makes it strenuous to form an efficient broadcast schedule. In this paper an evolutionary approach has been chosen to solve the broadcast scheduling problem in VANETs. The paper focusses on identifying an optimal solution with minimal TDMA frames and increased transmissions. These two parameters are the converging factor for the evolutionary algorithms employed. The proposed approach uses an Adaptive Discrete Firefly Algorithm (ADFA) for solving the Broadcast Scheduling Problem (BSP). The results are compared with traditional evolutionary approaches such as Genetic Algorithm and Cuckoo search algorithm. A mathematical analysis to find the probability of achieving a time slot is done using Markov Chain analysis.

AbstractIn wireless rechargeable sensor network, the deployment of charger node directly affects the overall charging utility of sensor network. Aiming at this problem, this paper abstracts the charger deployment problem as a multi-objective optimization problem that maximizes the received power of sensor nodes and minimizes the number of charger nodes. First, a network model that maximizes the sensor node received power and minimizes the number of charger nodes is constructed. Second, an improved cuckoo search (ICS) algorithm is proposed. This algorithm is based on the traditional cuckoo search algorithm (CS) to redefine its step factor, and then use the mutation factor to change the nesting position of the host bird to update the bird’s nest position, and then use ICS to find the ones that maximize the received power of the sensor node and minimize the number of charger nodes optimal solution. Compared with the traditional cuckoo search algorithm and multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm, the simulation results show that the algorithm can effectively increase the receiving power of sensor nodes, reduce the number of charger nodes and find the optimal solution to meet the conditions, so as to maximize the network charging utility.
