Deep-CNWO: a deep-chaotic nature whale optimization algorithm for early prediction of blood pressure disorder in smart healthcare settings

The integration of cloud and edge computing, along with machine learning, plays a vital role in the development of efficient healthcare systems in smart cities. However, machine and deep learning (DL) models are prone to delayed convergence and Type-I and Type-II errors due to data vastness and high degree imbalance. To overcome the shortcomings of previous frameworks, this work aims to propose an optimization method with DL, ‘Deep-Chaotic Nature Whale Optimization’ (Deep-CNWO) for early prediction of Blood Pressure disorders among patients under at-home supervision. A simplex search algorithm is integrated to improve the update mechanism of whale optimization algorithm (WOA), thereby creating a CNWO algorithm. The purpose of this hybrid optimization is to increase the accuracy and efficiency of DL models. Leveraging the power of DL and CNWO, this method (Deep-CNWO) provides an effective solution for early detection and proactive management of a chronic disease in at-home healthcare settings. We collected relevant data from clinical studies, including vital signs and patient contextual information, to train and evaluate the deep-CNWO model. The CNWO optimization approach has been used to improve the predictive performance and convergence of DL models. Experiments performed on imbalanced datasets using deep-CNWO have given 99.90% accuracy. The average F-score for emergency cases has improved by 22%, while the average accuracy has increased by 5.72% across all three classes, compared to the results reported in previous related work. Deep-CNWO improves the convergence of DL and reduces Type-I and Type-II errors. The experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of our proposed method for remote patient monitoring and highlight its potential for quick intervention during emergencies.
