Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Cluster Head Selection in IoV-Enabled VANETs Using a Federated Diffusion Convolutional Recurrent Neural Networks FrameworkP Subhash, Madana Srinivas, A. Ranjith et al.The IoV enables the formation of VANETs that require a strong selection of CHs for effective communication within high-velocity changing traffic scenarios. Existing approaches often face issues related to scalability, privacy, and adaptability. To meet the aforementioned urgent needs, we design a decentralized scheme for intelligent CH selection based on Federated Learning with Diffusion Convolutional Recurrent Neural Networks (DCRNNs).
