Efficient classification using parallel and scalable compressed model and Its application on intrusion detection
In order to achieve high efficiency of classification in intrusion detection,
a compressed model is proposed in this paper which combines horizontal
compression with vertical compression. OneR is utilized as horizontal
com-pression for attribute reduction, and affinity propagation is employed as
vertical compression to select small representative exemplars from large
training data. As to be able to computationally compress the larger volume of
training data with scalability, MapReduce based parallelization approach is
then implemented and evaluated for each step of the model compression process
abovementioned, on which common but efficient classification methods can be
directly used. Experimental application study on two publicly available
datasets of intrusion detection, KDD99 and CMDC2012, demonstrates that the
classification using the compressed model proposed can effectively speed up the
detection procedure at up to 184 times, most importantly at the cost of a
minimal accuracy difference with less than 1% on average
A taxonomy framework for unsupervised outlier detection techniques for multi-type data sets
The term "outlier" can generally be defined as an observation that is significantly different from
the other values in a data set. The outliers may be instances of error or indicate events. The
task of outlier detection aims at identifying such outliers in order to improve the analysis of
data and further discover interesting and useful knowledge about unusual events within numerous
applications domains. In this paper, we report on contemporary unsupervised outlier detection
techniques for multiple types of data sets and provide a comprehensive taxonomy framework and
two decision trees to select the most suitable technique based on data set. Furthermore, we
highlight the advantages, disadvantages and performance issues of each class of outlier detection
techniques under this taxonomy framework
Artificial intelligence in the cyber domain: Offense and defense
Artificial intelligence techniques have grown rapidly in recent years, and their applications in practice can be seen in many fields, ranging from facial recognition to image analysis. In the cybersecurity domain, AI-based techniques can provide better cyber defense tools and help adversaries improve methods of attack. However, malicious actors are aware of the new prospects too and will probably attempt to use them for nefarious purposes. This survey paper aims at providing an overview of how artificial intelligence can be used in the context of cybersecurity in both offense and defense.Web of Science123art. no. 41
