Novel Approach for IP-PBX Denial of Service Intrusion Detection Using Support Vector Machine Algorithm.

Recent trends have revealed that SIP based IP-PBX DoS attacks contribute to most overall IP-PBX attacks which is resulting in loss of revenues and quality of service in telecommunication providers. IP-PBX face challenges in detecting and mitigating malicious traffic. In this research, Support Vector Machine (SVM) machine learning detection & prevention algorithm were developed to detect this type of attacks Two other techniques were benchmarked decision tree and Naïve Bayes. The training phase of the machine learning algorithm used proposed real-time training datasets benchmarked with two training datasets from CICIDS and NSL-KDD. Proposed real-time training dataset for SVM algorithm achieved highest detection rate of 99.13% while decision tree and Naïve Bayes has 93.28% & 86.41% of attack detection rate, respectively. For CICIDS dataset, SVM algorithm achieved highest detection rate of 76.47% while decision tree and Naïve Bayes has 63.71% & 41.58% of detection rate, respectively. Using NSL-KDD training dataset, SVM achieved 65.17%, while decision tree and Naïve Bayes has 51.96% & 38.26% of detection rate, respectively.The time taken by the algorithms to classify the attack is very important. SVM gives less time (2.9 minutes) for detecting attacks while decision tree and naïve Bayes gives 13.6 minutes 26.2 minutes, respectively. Proposed SVM algorithm achieved the lowest false negative value of (87 messages) while decision table and Naïve Bayes achieved false negative messages of 672 and 1359, respectively

Analysis of multicomponent transient signals using MUSIC superresolution technique

The problem of estimating the parameters of transient signals consisting of real decay constants has for long been a subject of study by many researchers. Such signals arise in many problems in Science and Engineering like nuclear magnetic resonance for medical diagnosis, deep-level transient spectroscopy, fluorescence decay analysis, etc. Many techniques have been suggested by researchers to analyse these signals but they often produce mixed results. A new method of analysis using modified MUSIC (multiple signal classification) subspace algorithm is successfully applied to the analysis of this signal. A noisy multiexponential signal is subjected to a preprocessing procedure consisting of Gardenerspsila transformation and inverse filtering. Modified MUSIC algorithm is then applied to the deconvolved data. The parameters of focus in this paper are the number of components and decay constants. It is shown that with this technique parameter estimates do not significantly change with signal to noise ratio. The superiority of this algorithm over conventional MUSIC algorithm is also shown

Effect of sampling on the parameter estimates of multicomponent transients

The need to estimate the parameters of transient multiexponential signals frequently arises in different areas of applied science. A classical technique that has been frequently used with different modifications is the Gardner transform. Gardner transform is used to convert the original data signal into a convolution model. Converting this model into a discrete type for further analysis depends on the selection of correct sampling conditions. Previously, a relationship between the sampling frequency and the weighting factor in the modified Gardner transform was derived. In this paper, the effect of this relationship on the accuracy of parameter estimates is investigated

State-of-the-art application of artificial neural network in digital watermarking and the way forward

Several high-ranking watermarking schemes using neural networks have been proposed in order to make the watermark stronger to resist attacks.The ability of Artificial Neural Network, ANN to learn, do mapping, classify, and adapt has increased the interest of researcher in application of different types ANN in watermarking.In this paper, ANN based approached have been categorized based on their application to different components of watermarking such as; capacity estimate, watermark embedding, recovery of watermark and error rate detection. We propose a new component of water marking, Secure Region, SR in which, ANN can be used to identify such region within the estimated capacity. Hence an attack-proof watermarking system can be achieved

Reduced-Reference Video Quality Metric Using Spatial Information in Salient Regions

In multimedia transmission, it is important to rely on an objective quality metric which accurately represents the subjective quality of processed images and video sequences. Maintaining acceptable Quality of Experience in video transmission requires the ability to measure the quality of the video seen at the receiver end. Reduced-reference metrics make use of side-information that is transmitted to the receiver for estimating the quality of the received sequence with low complexity. This attribute enables real-time assessment and visual degradation detection caused by transmission and compression errors. A novel reduced-reference video quality known as the Spatial Information in Salient Regions Reduced Reference Metric is proposed. The approach proposed makes use of spatial activity to estimate the received sequence distortion after concealment. The statistical elements analysed in this work are based on extracted edges and their luminance distributions. Results highlight that the proposed edge dissimilarity measure has a good correlation with DMOS scores from the LIVE Video Database

Analysis of transient multiexponential signals using cepstral deconvolution

We propose and test a new method of multiexponential transient signal analysis. The method based on cepstral deconvolution is fast and computationally inexpensive. The multiexponential signal is initially converted to a deconvolution model using Gardners' transformation after which the proposed method is used to deconvolve the data. Simulation and experimental results indicate that this method is good for determining the number of components but performs poorly in accurately estimating the decay rates. Influence of noise is not considered in this paper

Fuzzy Logic based Edge Detection Method for Image Processing

Edge detection is the first step in image recognition systems in a digital image processing. An effective way to resolve many information from an image such depth, curves and its surface is by analyzing its edges, because that can elucidate these characteristic when color, texture, shade or light changes slightly. Thiscan lead to misconception image or vision as it based on faulty method. This work presentsa new fuzzy logic method with an implemention. The objective of this method is to improve the edge detection task. The results are comparable to similar techniques in particular for medical images because it does not take the uncertain part into its account
