Enhancing Privacy-Preserving Intrusion Detection in Blockchain-Based Networks with Deep Learning

Data transfer in sensitive industries such as healthcare presents significant challenges due to privacy issues, which makes it difficult to collaborate and use machine learning effectively. These issues are explored in this study by looking at how hybrid learning approaches can be used to move models between users and consumers as well as within organizations. Blockchain technology is used, compensating participants with tokens, to provide privacy-preserving data collection and safe model transfer. The proposed approach combines Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Units (GRU) to create a privacy-preserving secure framework for predictive analytics. LSTM-GRU-based federated learning techniques are used for local model training. The approach uses blockchain to securely transmit data to a distributed, decentralised cloud server, guaranteeing data confidentiality and privacy using a variety of storage techniques. This architecture addresses privacy issues and encourages seamless cooperation by utilising hybrid learning, federated learning, and blockchain technology. The study contributes to bridging the gap between secure data transfer and effective deep learning, specifically within sensitive domains. Experimental results demonstrate an impressive accuracy rate of 99.01%

Transfer Learning for Speech and Language Processing

Transfer learning is a vital technique that generalizes models trained for one setting or task to other settings or tasks. For example in speech recognition, an acoustic model trained for one language can be used to recognize speech in another language, with little or no re-training data. Transfer learning is closely related to multi-task learning (cross-lingual vs. multilingual), and is traditionally studied in the name of `model adaptation'. Recent advance in deep learning shows that transfer learning becomes much easier and more effective with high-level abstract features learned by deep models, and the `transfer' can be conducted not only between data distributions and data types, but also between model structures (e.g., shallow nets and deep nets) or even model types (e.g., Bayesian models and neural models). This review paper summarizes some recent prominent research towards this direction, particularly for speech and language processing. We also report some results from our group and highlight the potential of this very interesting research field.Comment: 13 pages, APSIPA 201
