Abstract: The Heterogeneous Internet of Things (H-IoT) is considered as the upcoming industrial and academic revolution in the technological world, having billions of things and devices connected to the Internet. This H-IoT has a major issue of energy consumption during data transmission which leads to low scalability. Additionally, anomalies in the data create a serious threat to energy in H-IoT. To overcome these issues, a novel approach has been proposed in this study termed as the Energy-Efficient Memetic Clustering Method (EEMCM), which combines the Parallelized Memetic Algorithm (PMA) with the AlexNet architecture to improve anomaly detection efficiency in IoT WSNs. Initially, cluster formation and CH selection are carried out using PMA. This is followed by routing path generation, and the data are prepared for high-level feature extraction. The extracted features are classified to identify anomalies. For anomaly detection, high-level features were collected that contain data relevant to the model given as input into the AlexNet architecture, which detects anomalies and identifies normal or potential attacks within the IoT WSNs. The proposed EEMCM model has been implemented in the MATLAB platform and obtained an accuracy of 99.11%. As a result, the overall performance of the network is improved.
