Deep Belief Network Based Wireless Sensor Network Connectivity Analysis

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are widely used in various fields, and their deployment is critical to ensure area coverage and full network connectivity to achieve the maximum network lifetime. In this study, we present a mixed-integer programming (MIP) model that deeply investigates deployment parameters to optimize lifetime and analyze network connectivity. We further analyze the obtained results using Deep Belief Network (DBN) and Deep Neural Network (DNN) algorithms to achieve higher accuracy rates. Our evaluation shows that the DBN outperforms the DNN with an accuracy rate of 81.2%, precision of 81.2%, recall of 99.1%, and an F1-Score of 0.78. We also utilize two different datasets to justify the efficiency of the DBN in this research. The findings of this study emphasize the validity of our DBN algorithm and encourage further research into lifetime optimization and connectivity analysis in WSNs.
