Abstract

First sensor data can be received from a first set of IoT devices. Sensor data collection rates can be determined for a first artificial intelligence model by analyzing the first sensor data using a second artificial intelligence model. Based on the sensor data collection rates, sensor control commands can be communicated to a second set of Internet of Things devices. The sensor control commands can specify, to the second set of Internet of Things devices, sensor data communication rates that respective ones of the second set of Internet of Things devices are to implement for communicating, to the first artificial intelligence model, second sensor data generated by sensors of the respective ones of the second set of Internet of Things devices.
