A New Intrusion Detection System Based on Fast Learning Network and Particle Swarm Optimization

Abstract

Supervised intrusion detection system is a system that has the capability of learning from examples about the previous attacks to detect new attacks. Using artificial neural network (ANN)-based intrusion detection is promising for reducing the number of false negative or false positives, because ANN has the capability of learning from actual examples. In this paper, a developed learning model for fast learning network (FLN) based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) has been proposed and named as PSO-FLN. The model has been applied to the problem of intrusion detection and validated based on the famous dataset KDD99. Our developed model has been compared against a wide range of meta-heuristic algorithms for training extreme learning machine and FLN classifier. PSO-FLN has outperformed other learning approaches in the testing accuracy of the learning.
