Class Association Rules Mining based Rough Set Method

This paper investigates the mining of class association rules with rough set approach. In data mining, an association occurs between two set of elements when one element set happen together with another. A class association rule set (CARs) is a subset of association rules with classes specified as their consequences. We present an efficient algorithm for mining the finest class rule set inspired form Apriori algorithm, where the support and confidence are computed based on the elementary set of lower approximation included in the property of rough set theory. Our proposed approach has been shown very effective, where the rough set approach for class association discovery is much simpler than the classic association method.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure

Multi-mode partitioning for text clustering to reduce dimensionality and noises

Co-clustering in text mining has been proposed to partition words and documents simultaneously. Although the main advantage of this approach may improve interpretation of clusters on the data, there are still few proposals on these methods; while one-way partition is even now widely utilized for information retrieval. In contrast to structured information, textual data suffer of high dimensionality and sparse matrices, so it is strictly necessary to pre-process texts for applying clustering techniques. In this paper, we propose a new procedure to reduce high dimensionality of corpora and to remove the noises from the unstructured data. We test two different processes to treat data applying two co-clustering algorithms; based on the results we present the procedure that provides the best interpretation of the data

A survey of intrusion detection techniques in Cloud

Cloud computing provides scalable, virtualized on-demand services to the end users with greater flexibility and lesser infrastructural investment. These services are provided over the Internet using known networking protocols, standards and formats under the supervision of different managements. Existing bugs and vulnerabilities in underlying technologies and legacy protocols tend to open doors for intrusion. This paper, surveys different intrusions affecting availability, confidentiality and integrity of Cloud resources and services. It examines proposals incorporating Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) in Cloud and discusses various types and techniques of IDS and Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), and recommends IDS/IPS positioning in Cloud architecture to achieve desired security in the next generation networks
