    The intriguing study of feature extraction, and edge detection in particular, has, as a result of the increased use of imagery, drawn even more attention not just from the field of computer science but also from a variety of scientific fields. However, various challenges surrounding the formulation of feature extraction operator, particularly of edges, which is capable of satisfying the necessary properties of low probability of error (i.e., failure of marking true edges), accuracy, and consistent response to a single edge, continue to persist. Moreover, it should be pointed out that most of the work in the area of feature extraction has been focused on improving many of the existing approaches rather than devising or adopting new ones. In the image processing subfield, where the needs constantly change, we must equally change the way we think. In this digital world where the use of images, for variety of purposes, continues to increase, researchers, if they are serious about addressing the aforementioned limitations, must be able to think outside the box and step away from the usual in order to overcome these challenges. In this dissertation, we propose an adaptive and robust, yet simple, digital image features detection methodology using bidimensional empirical mode decomposition (BEMD), a sifting process that decomposes a signal into its two-dimensional (2D) bidimensional intrinsic mode functions (BIMFs). The method is further extended to detect corners and curves, and as such, dubbed as BEMDEC, indicating its ability to detect edges, corners and curves. In addition to the application of BEMD, a unique combination of a flexible envelope estimation algorithm, stopping criteria and boundary adjustment made the realization of this multi-feature detector possible. Further application of two morphological operators of binarization and thinning adds to the quality of the operator

    Das exponentielle Wachstum der Online-Dienste und des über die Kommunikationsnetze übertragenen Datenvolumens macht es erforderlich, die Struktur traditioneller Netzwerke durch ein neues Paradigma zu ersetzen, das sich den aktuellen Anforderungen anpasst. Software-Defined Networking (SDN) ist hierfür eine fortschrittliche Netzwerkarchitektur, die darauf abzielt, das traditionelle Netzwerk in ein flexibleres Netzwerk umzuwandeln, das sich an die wachsenden Anforderungen anpasst. Im Gegensatz zum traditionellen Netzwerk ermöglicht SDN die Entkopplung von Steuer- und Datenebene, um Netzwerkressourcen effizient zu überwachen, zu konfigurieren und zu optimieren. Es verfügt über einen zentralisierten Controller mit einer globalen Netzwerksicht, der seine Ressourcen über programmierbare Schnittstellen verwaltet. Die zentrale Steuerung bringt jedoch neue Sicherheitsschwachstellen mit sich und fungiert als Single Point of Failure, den ein böswilliger Benutzer ausnutzen kann, um die normale Netzwerkfunktionalität zu stören. So startet der Angreifer einen massiven Datenverkehr, der als Distributed-Denial-of-Service Angriff (DDoSAngriff) von der SDN-Infrastrukturebene in Richtung des Controllers bekannt ist. Dieser DDoS-Angriff führt zu einer Sättigung der Steuerkanal-Bandbreite und belegt die Ressourcen des Controllers. Darüber hinaus erbt die SDN-Architektur einige Angriffsarten aus den traditionellen Netzwerken. Der Angreifer fälscht beispielweise die Pakete, um gutartig zu erscheinen, und zielt dann auf die traditionellen DDoS-Ziele wie Hosts, Server, Anwendungen und Router ab. In dieser Arbeit wird das Verhalten von böswilligen Benutzern untersucht. Anschließend wird ein Intrusion Detection System (IDS) zum Schutz der SDN-Umgebung vor DDoS-Angriffen vorgestellt. Das IDS berücksichtigt dabei drei Ansätze, um ausreichendes Feedback über den laufenden Verkehr durch die SDN-Architektur zu erhalten: die Informationen von einem externen Gerät, den OpenFlow-Kanal und die Flow-Tabelle. Daher besteht das vorgeschlagene IDS aus drei Komponenten. Das Inspector Device verhindert, dass böswillige Benutzer einen Sättigungsangriff auf den SDN-Controller starten. Die Komponente Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) verwendet eindimensionale neuronale Faltungsnetzwerke (1D-CNN), um den Verkehr des Controllers über den OpenFlow-Kanal zu analysieren. Die Komponente Deep Learning Algorithm(DLA) verwendet Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN), um die vererbten DDoS-Angriffe zu erkennen. Sie unterstützt auch die Unterscheidung zwischen bösartigen und gutartigen Benutzern als neue Gegenmaßnahme. Am Ende dieser Arbeit werden alle vorgeschlagenen Komponenten mit dem Netzwerkemulator Mininet und der Programmiersprache Python modelliert, um ihre Machbarkeit zu testen. Die Simulationsergebnisse zeigen hierbei, dass das vorgeschlagene IDS im Vergleich zu mehreren Benchmarking- und State-of-the-Art-Vorschlägen überdurchschnittliche Leistungen erbringt.The exponential growth of online services and the data volume transferred over the communication networks raises the need to change the structure of traditional networks to a new paradigm that adapts to the development’s demands. Software- Defined Networking (SDN) is an advanced network architecture aiming to evolve and transform the traditional network into a more flexible network that responds to the new requirements. In contrast to the traditional network, SDN allows decoupling of the control and data planes functionalities to monitor, configure, and optimize network resources efficiently. It has a centralized controller with a global network view to manage its resources using programmable interfaces. The central control brings new security vulnerabilities and acts as a single point of failure, which the malicious user might exploit to disrupt the network functionality. Thus, the attacker launches massive traffic known as Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack from the SDN infrastructure layer towards the controller. This DDoS attack leads to saturation of control channel bandwidth and destroys the controller resources. Furthermore, the SDN architecture inherits some attacks types from the traditional networks. Therefore, the attacker forges the packets to appear benign and then targets the traditional DDoS objectives such as hosts, servers, applications, routers. This work observes the behavior of malicious users. It then presents an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) to safeguard the SDN environment against DDoS attacks. The IDS considers three approaches to obtain sufficient feedback about the ongoing traffic through the SDN architecture: the information from an external device, the OpenFlow channel, and the flow table. Therefore, the proposed IDS consists of three components; Inspector Device prevents the malicious users from launching the saturation attack towards the SDN controller. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) Component employs the One- Dimensional Convolutional Neural Networks (1D-CNN) to analyze the controller’s traffic through the OpenFlow Channel. The Deep Learning Algorithm (DLA) component employs Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) to detect the inherited DDoS attacks. The IDS also supports distinguishing between malicious and benign users as a new countermeasure. At the end of this work, the network emulator Mininet and the programming language python model all the proposed components to test their feasibility. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed IDS outperforms compared several benchmarking and state-of-the-art suggestions
