Artificial Intelligence (AI) based wireless sensor network technology is the future of advancement for real-time applications. With AI wireless sensor network technology, it is possible to collect data from any environment, analyze in real time, and use it to optimize processes and operations. AI wireless sensor network technology provides an unprecedented level of accuracy as well as the ability to detect even the slightest changes in a given environment. The AI-based approach uses clustering-based techniques with Self Organizing Map (SOM) for energy conservation in resource-constrained networks. By clustering the network, it becomes more energy efficient, as data can be shared among members of a cluster without needing to be transmitted across multiple nodes. We make an effort to define key parameters of the design space for size, cost, mobility, deployment, and energy parameters and support our conclusions by demonstrating where different existing sensor network applications are located within the design space. The proposed work AI cluster-based routing approach outperforms in terms of energy consumption and computational challenges of the network. Furthermore, the work includes a mathematical analysis, which allows readers to better understand the inner workings of the proposed approach and how it can be used to reduce network energy consumption. The results obtained demonstrate the proposed approach to achieve lower energy consumption than the existing algorithms while providing the same level of performance in terms of throughput and latency, as well as a comparison with traditional justification techniques.
