| Abstract | The fast-moving adaptation of the Internet of Things (IoT) and its devices has revolutionized the way we interact with connected systems and perceive the world around us. With the increasing deployment of IoT in various domains such as smart homes, healthcare, industrial automation, and intelligent transportation, ensuring the proper classification and management of IoT devices is essential. Accurate classification plays a crucial role in network management, security enforcement, Quality of Service (QoS), and overall system performance optimization. However, the dynamic nature of IoT environments presents a significant challenge for effective IoT device classification, specifically in the form of drift. Drift occurs when device characteristics and behaviors change over time, making it challenging to maintain accurate classification. This issue is particularly prevalent in applications like smart homes, smart infrastructures, smart cities, and industrial IoT, where diverse and evolving devices contribute to data variability and uncertainty. This survey examines the application of machine learning techniques in mitigating drift in IoT device classification, with a focus on prevention, detection, adaptation, and mitigation strategies. Additionally, we discuss the open challenges and limitations of existing machine learning (ML)-based models used for drift management, as well as future research directions. By analyzing the current landscape of drift management in IoT, this research survey provides valuable insights. It highlights critical gaps that need to be addressed for more robust and efficient IoT classification models. © (2025), (Insight Society). All rights reserved. |
