Monitoring the daily activities of elderly individuals plays a crucial role in accident prevention, health assessment, and improving quality of life. In this paper, we propose a lightweight and efficient convolutional neural network architecture for human activity recognition based on skeletal data. Unlike conventional approaches that rely solely on absolute joint coordinates, the proposed method incorporates short- and long-term frame differences as well as spatial variations across joints to construct complementary views, thereby providing a richer spatiotemporal representation. The architecture consists of multiple convolutional blocks with residual connections, followed by global average pooling and a fully connected layer for final classification. Experimental evaluations conducted on two benchmark datasets, NTU RGB+D and ETRI-Activity3D, demonstrate that while the proposed model may achieve slightly lower accuracy compared to some state-of-the-art methods, it offers high inference speed and low computational complexity. These characteristics make it particularly suitable for real-time applications and deployment on resource-constrained devices, especially in elderly home-care environments.

IoT devices has witnessed a substantial increase due to the growing demand for smart devices. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are critical components for safeguarding IoT networks against cyber threats. This study presents an advanced approach to IoT network intrusion detection, leveraging deep learning techniques and pristine data. We utilize the publicly available CICIDS2017 dataset, which enables comprehensive training and testing of intrusion detection models across various attack scenarios, such as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks, port scans, botnet activity, and more. Our goal is to provide a more effective method than the previous methods. Our proposed deep learning model incorporates dense transition layers and LSTM architecture, designed to capture both spatial and temporal dependencies within the data. We employed rigorous evaluation metrics, including sparse categorical cross-entropy loss and accuracy, to assess model performance. The results of our approach show outstanding accuracy, reaching a peak of 0.997 on the test data. Our model demonstrates stability in loss and accuracy metrics, ensuring reliable intrusion detection capabilities. Comparative analysis with other machine learning models confirms the effectiveness of our approach. Moreover, our study assesses the model's resilience to Gaussian noise, revealing its capacity to maintain accuracy in challenging conditions. We provide detailed performance metrics for various attack types, offering insights into the model's effectiveness across diverse threat scenarios.
