Efficient intrusion detection scheme based on SVM
The network intrusion detection problem is the focus of current academic research. In this paper, we propose to use Support Vector Machine (SVM) model to identify and detect the network intrusion problem, and simultaneously introduce a new optimization search method, referred to as Improved Harmony Search (IHS) algorithm, to determine the parameters of the SVM model for better classification accuracy. Taking the general mechanism network system of a growing city in China between 2006 and 2012 as the sample, this study divides the mechanism into normal network system and crisis network system according to the harm extent of network intrusion. We consider a crisis network system coupled with two to three normal network systems as paired samples. Experimental results show that SVMs based on IHS have a high prediction accuracy which can perform prediction and classification of network intrusion detection and assist in guarding against network intrusion
One-Class Classification: Taxonomy of Study and Review of Techniques
One-class classification (OCC) algorithms aim to build classification models
when the negative class is either absent, poorly sampled or not well defined.
This unique situation constrains the learning of efficient classifiers by
defining class boundary just with the knowledge of positive class. The OCC
problem has been considered and applied under many research themes, such as
outlier/novelty detection and concept learning. In this paper we present a
unified view of the general problem of OCC by presenting a taxonomy of study
for OCC problems, which is based on the availability of training data,
algorithms used and the application domains applied. We further delve into each
of the categories of the proposed taxonomy and present a comprehensive
literature review of the OCC algorithms, techniques and methodologies with a
focus on their significance, limitations and applications. We conclude our
paper by discussing some open research problems in the field of OCC and present
our vision for future research.Comment: 24 pages + 11 pages of references, 8 figure
Machine Learning in Wireless Sensor Networks: Algorithms, Strategies, and Applications
Wireless sensor networks monitor dynamic environments that change rapidly
over time. This dynamic behavior is either caused by external factors or
initiated by the system designers themselves. To adapt to such conditions,
sensor networks often adopt machine learning techniques to eliminate the need
for unnecessary redesign. Machine learning also inspires many practical
solutions that maximize resource utilization and prolong the lifespan of the
network. In this paper, we present an extensive literature review over the
period 2002-2013 of machine learning methods that were used to address common
issues in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The advantages and disadvantages of
each proposed algorithm are evaluated against the corresponding problem. We
also provide a comparative guide to aid WSN designers in developing suitable
machine learning solutions for their specific application challenges.Comment: Accepted for publication in IEEE Communications Surveys and Tutorial
Information Fusion for Anomaly Detection with the Dendritic Cell Algorithm
Dendritic cells are antigen presenting cells that provide a vital link
between the innate and adaptive immune system, providing the initial detection
of pathogenic invaders. Research into this family of cells has revealed that
they perform information fusion which directs immune responses. We have derived
a Dendritic Cell Algorithm based on the functionality of these cells, by
modelling the biological signals and differentiation pathways to build a
control mechanism for an artificial immune system. We present algorithmic
details in addition to experimental results, when the algorithm was applied to
anomaly detection for the detection of port scans. The results show the
Dendritic Cell Algorithm is sucessful at detecting port scans.Comment: 21 pages, 17 figures, Information Fusio
