Intrusion-aware Alert Validation Algorithm for Cooperative Distributed Intrusion Detection Schemes of Wireless Sensor Networks
Existing anomaly and intrusion detection schemes of wireless sensor networks
have mainly focused on the detection of intrusions. Once the intrusion is
detected, an alerts or claims will be generated. However, any unidentified
malicious nodes in the network could send faulty anomaly and intrusion claims
about the legitimate nodes to the other nodes. Verifying the validity of such
claims is a critical and challenging issue that is not considered in the
existing cooperative-based distributed anomaly and intrusion detection schemes
of wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we propose a validation algorithm
that addresses this problem. This algorithm utilizes the concept of
intrusion-aware reliability that helps to provide adequate reliability at a
modest communication cost. In this paper, we also provide a security resiliency
analysis of the proposed intrusion-aware alert validation algorithm.Comment: 19 pages, 7 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
An adaptive envelope analysis in a wireless sensor network for bearing fault diagnosis using fast kurtogram algorithm
This paper proposes a scheme to improve the performance of applying envelope analysis in a wireless sensor network for bearing fault diagnosis. The fast kurtogram is realized on the host computer for determining an optimum band-pass filter for the envelope analysis that is implemented on the wireless sensor node to extract the low frequency fault information. Therefore, the vibration signal can be monitored over the bandwidth limited wireless sensor network with both intelligence and real-time performance. Test results have proved that the diagnostic information for different bearing faults can be successfully extracted using the optimum band-pass filter
