Maximizing Anomaly Detection Performance in Next-Generation Networks

Abstract

The paper discusses major components of the proposed intrusion detection system as well as associated ideas. Dimensionality reduction solutions are highly valued for their potential to improve the efficiency of anomaly detection. Furthermore, feature selection and fusion methods are applied to optimise the system's capabilities. The following summary of network control, management, and cloud-based network processing aspects highlights operations managers, cloud resources, network function virtualization (NFV), and hardware and software components. We discuss prospective Deep Autoencoders (DAEs) applications, such as their use in the dimensionality reduction module, training methodologies, and benefits. Data transformation utilising coded representations is also graphically displayed and described in the text using an encoder and decoder system. The role of the anomaly detection via virtual network function in the suggested technique is also investigated. This component leverages a deep neural network (DNN) to identify anomalies in the 5G network's peripherals. DNN design issues, optimisation methodologies, and the trade-off between model complexity and detection efficacy are also discussed. Overall, the passage provides an overview of the proposed intrusion detection scheme, its components, and the techniques employed, underscoring their contributions to improving efficiency, accuracy, and security in Next Generation Networks.
