Abstract

Machine Learning as a Service (MLaaS) is a powerful cloud paradigm enabling data-driven intelligent applications in Internet of Things (IoT) environments, widely adopted across healthcare, smart homes, and industry due to its cost-effectiveness. However, the dynamic nature of IoT frequently alters data distributions, affecting MLaaS stability, while periodic MLaaS updates further introduce performance drift. Unlike traditional ML systems, MLaaS clients operate as black-box users without access to internal data or parameters, making drift detection particularly challenging. To address this, we propose a novel MLaaS Performance Drift Detection framework for IoT environments. The framework first employs an MLaaS extraction model that learns service behavior from input-output pairs and identifies prediction-influenced features. Building on this, the proposed MLaaS Performance Drift Detection (MPDD) model jointly captures variations in input data and MLaaS behavior. We further design an Adaptive-Temporal Performance Drift Detection Mechanism (APDDM) that dynamically adjusts monitoring frequency based on behavioral and data variations, enabling timely drift detection for effective service management. Extensive experiments on real-world datasets demonstrate that MPDD achieves up to 22-25% accuracy improvement over baseline drift detection methods. APDDM provides an average accuracy gain of approximately 4% and reduces the miss detection rate by around 9% compared to fixed-interval monitoring.

Physics-Informed and Hybrid Machine Learning in Additive Manufacturing: Application to Fused Filament Fabrication

This article investigates several physics-informed and hybrid machine learning strategies that incorporate physics knowledge in experimental data-driven deep-learning models for predicting the bond quality and porosity of fused filament fabrication (FFF) parts. Three types of strategies are explored to incorporate physics constraints and multi-physics FFF simulation results into a deep neural network (DNN), thus ensuring consistency with physical laws: (1) incorporate physics constraints within the loss function of the DNN, (2) use physics model outputs as additional inputs to the DNN model, and (3) pre-train a DNN model with physics model input-output and then update it with experimental data. These strategies help to enforce a physically consistent relationship between bond quality and tensile strength, thus making porosity predictions physically meaningful. Eight different combinations of the above strategies are investigated. The results show how the combination of multiple strategies produces accurate machine learning models even with limited experimental data.
