Abstract

In applications of the Internet of Things (IoT), where many devices are connected for a specific purpose, data is continuously collected, communicated, processed, and stored between the nodes. However, all connected nodes have strict constraints, such as battery usage, communication throughput, processing power, processing business, and storage limitations. The high number of constraints and nodes makes the standard methods to regulate them useless. Hence, using machine learning approaches to manage them better is attractive. In this study, a new framework for data management of IoT applications is designed and implemented. The framework is called MLADCF (Machine Learning Analytics-based Data Classification Framework). It is a two-stage framework that combines a regression model and a Hybrid Resource Constrained KNN (HRCKNN). It learns from the analytics of real scenarios of the IoT application. The description of the Framework parameters, the training procedure, and the application in real scenarios are detailed. MLADCF has shown proven efficiency by testing on four different datasets compared to existing approaches. Moreover, it reduced the global energy consumption of the network, leading to an extended battery life of the connected nodes.
