Abstract

IoT networks face increasing risks from zero-day attacks, scalability issues, and limited resources. These challenges reduce the effectiveness of traditional intrusion detection systems. Predictive modeling has come forward as a promising approach to address these problems. Sixteen recent studies published between 2021 and 2025 have been reviewed and grouped into five categories: deep learning-based intrusion detection, hybrid predictive models, blockchain-enabled frameworks, federated and edge learning, and semantic or active learning methods. Each category is analyzed based on methodology, datasets, detection performance, and limitations. The survey points out significant improvements in detection accuracy, flexibility, and transparency while also identifying ongoing challenges like energy efficiency, resilience against new threats, and large-scale deployment. A structured taxonomy and comparative analysis bring together these diverse efforts. The findings provide a valuable reference for researchers and practitioners aiming to build secure, scalable, and smart IoT anomaly detection systems.
