Introduction

The IOT has rapidly transformed numerous industries by enabling an extensive network of interconnected devices that generate vast amounts of data [1]. This technological advancement facilitates real-time monitoring, automation, and data-driven decision-making across diverse applications, from smart homes and cities to industrial processes and healthcare systems [2]. As IoT devices proliferate, the volume, velocity, and variety of data produced pose significant challenges for traditional data analysis methods [3]. Conventional approaches often fall short in managing and extracting meaningful insights from this complex and high-dimensional data [4]. Consequently, there was a growing need for advanced analytical techniques capable of addressing these challenges effectively [5].

Deep learning, a subset of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, has emerged as a powerful tool for enhancing IoT data analysis [6,7]. Its capacity to automatically learn hierarchical features and representations from raw data makes it particularly well-suited for handling the intricacies of IoT data [8]. Unlike traditional machine learning methods that rely heavily on manual feature extraction, deep learning models, such as CNNs and RNNs, excel at identifying patterns and anomalies within large datasets [9]. This capability was crucial for applications that require high levels of accuracy and real-time processing, such as predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, and autonomous systems [10].
