The impact of features extraction to attack detection was examined. Experiments on a network traffic dataset created from an Internet of Thing (IoT) testbed network topology were conducted and the results show that the accuracy of the detection reaches 100 percent

Deep CNN-Based Automated Optical Inspection for Aerospace Components

ABSTRACT The defect detection problem is of outmost importance in high-tech industries such as aerospace manufacturing and is widely employed using automated industrial quality control systems. In the aerospace manufacturing industry, composite materials are extensively applied as structural components in civilian and military aircraft. To ensure the quality of the product and high reliability, manual inspection and traditional automatic optical inspection have been employed to identify the defects throughout production and maintenance. These inspection techniques have several limitations such as tedious, time- consuming, inconsistent, subjective, labor intensive, expensive, etc. To make the operation effective and efficient, modern automated optical inspection needs to be preferred. In this dissertation work, automatic defect detection techniques are tested on three levels using a novel aerospace composite materials image dataset (ACMID). First, classical machine learning models, namely, Support Vector Machine and Random Forest, are employed for both datasets. Second, deep CNN-based models, such as improved ResNet50 and MobileNetV2 architectures are trained on ACMID datasets. Third, an efficient defect detection technique that combines the features of deep learning and classical machine learning model is proposed for ACMID dataset. To assess the aerospace composite components, all the models are trained and tested on ACMID datasets with distinct sizes. In addition, this work investigates the scenario when defective and non-defective samples are scarce and imbalanced. To overcome the problems of imbalanced and scarce datasets, oversampling techniques and data augmentation using improved deep convolutional generative adversarial networks (DCGAN) are considered. Furthermore, the proposed models are also validated using one of the benchmark steel surface defects (SSD) dataset

Knowledge Extraction From PV Power Generation With Deep Learning Autoencoder and Clustering-Based Algorithms

The unpredictable nature of photovoltaic solar power generation, caused by changing weather conditions, creates challenges for grid operators as they work to balance supply and demand. As solar power continues to become a larger part of the energy mix, managing this intermittency will be increasingly important. This paper focuses on identifying daily photovoltaic power production patterns to gain new knowledge of the generation patterns throughout the year based on unsupervised learning algorithms. The proposed data-driven model aims to extract typical daily photovoltaic power generation patterns by transforming the high dimensional temporal features of the daily PV power output into a lower latent feature space, which is learned by a deep learning autoencoder. Subsequently, the Partitioning Around Medoids (PAM) clustering algorithm is employed to identify the six distinct dominant patterns. Finally, a new algorithm is proposed to reconstruct these patterns in their original subspace. The proposed model is applied to two distinct datasets for further analysis. The results indicate that four out of the identified patterns in both datasets exhibit high correlation (over 95%) and temporal trends. These patterns correspond to distinct weather conditions, such as entirely sunny, mostly sunny, cloudy, and negligible power generation days, which were observed approximately 61% of the analyzed period. These typical patterns can be expected to be observed in other locations as well. Identified PV power generation patterns can improve forecasting models, optimize energy management systems, and aid in implementing energy storage or demand response programs and scheduling efficiently

Time Efficiency on Computational Performance of PCA, FA and TSVD on Ransomware Detection

Ransomware is able to attack and take over access of the targeted user'scomputer. Then the hackers demand a ransom to restore the user's accessrights. Ransomware detection process especially in big data has problems interm of computational processing time or detection speed. Thus, it requires adimensionality reduction method for computational process efficiency. Thisresearch work investigates the efficiency of three dimensionality reductionmethods, i.e.: Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Factor Analysis (FA) andTruncated Singular Value Decomposition (TSVD). Experimental results onCICAndMal2017 dataset show that PCA is the fastest and most significantmethod in the computational process with average detection time of 34.33s.Furthermore, result of accuracy, precision and recall also show that the PCAis superior compared to FA and TSVD

An Approach to Semantically Segmenting Building Components and Outdoor Scenes Based on Multichannel Aerial Imagery Datasets

As-is building modeling plays an important role in energy audits and retrofits. However, in order to understand the source(s) of energy loss, researchers must know the semantic information of the buildings and outdoor scenes. Thermal information can potentially be used to distinguish objects that have similar surface colors but are composed of different materials. To utilize both the red–green–blue (RGB) color model and thermal information for the semantic segmentation of buildings and outdoor scenes, we deployed and adapted various pioneering deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) tools that combine RGB information with thermal information to improve the semantic and instance segmentation processes. When both types of information are available, the resulting DCNN models allow us to achieve better segmentation performance. By deploying three case studies, we experimented with our proposed DCNN framework, deploying datasets of building components and outdoor scenes, and testing the models to determine whether the segmentation performance had improved or not. In our observation, the fusion of RGB and thermal information can help the segmentation task in specific cases, but it might also make the neural networks hard to train or deteriorate their prediction performance in some cases. Additionally, different algorithms perform differently in semantic and instance segmentation

Road Surface Defect Detection -- From Image-based to Non-image-based: A Survey

Ensuring traffic safety is crucial, which necessitates the detection and prevention of road surface defects. As a result, there has been a growing interest in the literature on the subject, leading to the development of various road surface defect detection methods. The methods for detecting road defects can be categorised in various ways depending on the input data types or training methodologies. The predominant approach involves image-based methods, which analyse pixel intensities and surface textures to identify defects. Despite their popularity, image-based methods share the distinct limitation of vulnerability to weather and lighting changes. To address this issue, researchers have explored the use of additional sensors, such as laser scanners or LiDARs, providing explicit depth information to enable the detection of defects in terms of scale and volume. However, the exploration of data beyond images has not been sufficiently investigated. In this survey paper, we provide a comprehensive review of road surface defect detection studies, categorising them based on input data types and methodologies used. Additionally, we review recently proposed non-image-based methods and discuss several challenges and open problems associated with these techniques.Comment: Survey paper

Enhanced transformer long short-term memory framework for datastream prediction

In machine learning, datastream prediction is a challenging issue, particularly when dealing with enormous amounts of continuous data. The dynamic nature of data makes it difficult for traditional models to handle and sustain real-time prediction accuracy.

By employing several central processing units (CPUs) to divide the datastream into multiple parallel chunks, the MPLSTM framework illustrates the intrinsic parallelism of long short-term memory (LSTM) networks. The MPLSTM framework ensures accurate predictions by skillfully learning and adapting to changing data distributions. Extensive experimental assessments on real-world datasets have demonstrated the clear superiority of the MPLSTM architecture over previous methods. This study uses the transformer, the most recent deep learning breakthrough technology, to demonstrate how well it can handle challenging tasks and emphasizes its critical role as a cutting-edge approach to raising the bar for machine learning
