Abstract
With the growth in network usage, there has been a corresponding growth in the nefarious exploitation of this technology. A wide array of techniques is now available that can be used to deal with cyberattacks, and one of them is network intrusion detection. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques have extensively been employed to identify network anomalies. This paper provides an effective technique to evaluate the classification performance of a deep-learning-based Feedforward Neural Network (FFNN) classifier. A small feature vector is used to detect network traffic anomalies in the UNSW-NB15 and NSL-KDD datasets. The results show that a large feature set can have redundant and unuseful features, and it requires high computation power. The proposed technique exploits a small feature vector and achieves better classification accuracy.
