Artificial Immune Systems - Models, algorithms and applications
Copyright © 2010 Academic Research Publishing Agency.This article has been made available through the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fund.Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) are computational paradigms that belong to the computational intelligence family and are inspired by the biological immune system. During the past decade, they have attracted a lot of interest from researchers aiming to develop immune-based models and techniques to solve complex computational or engineering problems. This work presents a survey of existing AIS models and algorithms with a focus on the last five years.This article is available through the Brunel Open Access Publishing Fun
A Novel Hybrid CNN-AIS Visual Pattern Recognition Engine
Machine learning methods are used today for most recognition problems.
Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) have time and again proved successful for
many image processing tasks primarily for their architecture. In this paper we
propose to apply CNN to small data sets like for example, personal albums or
other similar environs where the size of training dataset is a limitation,
within the framework of a proposed hybrid CNN-AIS model. We use Artificial
Immune System Principles to enhance small size of training data set. A layer of
Clonal Selection is added to the local filtering and max pooling of CNN
Architecture. The proposed Architecture is evaluated using the standard MNIST
dataset by limiting the data size and also with a small personal data sample
belonging to two different classes. Experimental results show that the proposed
hybrid CNN-AIS based recognition engine works well when the size of training
data is limited in siz
A Review on Biological Inspired Computation in Cryptology
Cryptology is a field that concerned with cryptography and cryptanalysis. Cryptography, which is a key technology in providing a secure transmission of information, is a study of designing strong cryptographic algorithms, while cryptanalysis is a study of breaking the cipher. Recently biological approaches provide inspiration in solving problems from various fields. This paper reviews major works in the application of biological inspired computational (BIC) paradigm in cryptology. The paper focuses on three BIC approaches, namely, genetic algorithm (GA), artificial neural network (ANN) and artificial immune system (AIS). The findings show that the research on applications of biological approaches in cryptology is minimal as compared to other fields. To date only ANN and GA have been used in cryptanalysis and design of cryptographic primitives and protocols. Based on similarities that AIS has with ANN and GA, this paper provides insights for potential application of AIS in cryptology for further research
Robust data assimilation in river flow and stage estimation based on multiple imputation particle filter
In this paper, new method is proposed for a more robust Data Assimilation (DA) design of the
river flow and stage estimation. By using the new sets of data that are derived from the incorporated Multi
Imputation Particle Filter (MIPF) in the DA structure, the proposed method is found to have overcome the
issue of missing observation data and contributed to a better estimation process. The convergence analysis
of the MIPF is discussed and shows that the number of the particles and imputation influence the ability of
this method to perform estimation. The simulation results of the MIPF demonstrated the superiority of the
proposed approach when being compared to the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) and Particle Filter (PF)
