Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The Internet of Things (IoT) is tightening the link between digital systems and the physical world, opening seamless access to real-world assets. Progress in wireless connectivity has accelerated IoT deployment across domains such as surveillance, healthcare, smart homes, urban services, and logistics. This paper targets the cybersecurity risks specific to smart-home settings. We review prominent threats and introduce a flexible architecture for secure transaction handling and data-flow control. Our system combines centralized and decentralized models and integrates application-layer protocols for efficient flow control, minimizing computation in resource-limited devices. At the base layer, Security protocols mitigate vulnerabilities in machine-to-machine (M2M) systems. Experimental results confirm the system's effectiveness in reducing eavesdropping and malware threats while lowering computational overhead for low-energy devices.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
