An efficient intrusion detection technique for traffic pattern learning

Efficient intrusion detection algorithms are required for network traffic learning patterns in order to protect advanced network communication channels. These systems can be used to detect normal and unusual patterns, signatures, and rule violations. In recent years, conventional and deep machine learning algorithms have been utilized in the field of network intrusion detection for network traffic learning systems. The use of machine learning opens up new attack surfaces that are very intriguing to investigate. Attackers can introduce noisy data into training data to influence testing patterns in computer networks. The goal of this work is to create an efficient intrusion detection solution for network traffic learning patterns using a supervised and unsupervised technique. We developed an effective intrusion detection system (IDs) using an appropriate NSLKDD dataset for network traffic patterns. The model was trained and evaluated using the Genetic Optimization Algorithm (GOA) and the Niave Bayesian technique to recognize usual and unexpected network traffic patterns. We created a strategy that begins with a random population and subsequent iterates through the fitness function, returning the best parents with high detection accuracy. The best parents were determined using the n-parameters iterated by the crossover and mutation procedures. A cross over function was created to combine genes from two fitness parents by randomly selecting portions from each parent. The individual components of the crossover offsprings are randomly flipped to achieve the mutation. The fitness of the previous generation was obtained to generate a new generation, and this process was repeated n times. This was created to detect network intrusions using Nave Bayes' binary categorization problem and evolutionary algorithms. We accomplished this task by aggregating noise into training set before broadcasting the average number, and it is critical not to have that public average too frequently. The experimental results reveal that our proposed GA fared better than the NB technique, with a detection accuracy of 95.0% versus a recommendable detection accuracy of 53.0%.

A More Efficient Algorithm for Small Target Detection in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

Due to the relatively high shooting altitude of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), the captured images often contain a multitude of small‐scale targets. To solve the problems of small target scale, lack of semantic information, and high miss detection in drone target detection, in this paper we proposed a more effective unmanned aerial vehicle small target detection algorithm(MEU‐YOLOv5) based on YOLOv5s. Firstly, an efficient global contextual module is proposed to enhance the algorithm's performance in feature extraction while reducing the excessive loss of shallow features. Secondly, a small‐scale target detector is added to enhance the algorithm's detection capability for smaller targets. Lastly, a recursive multi‐level feature fusion path is introduced to better fuse the shallow and deep features of the images, reducing overfitting and improving the algorithm's generalizability and robustness. Experimental results demonstrated that compared to YOLOv5s, MEU‐YOLOv5 achieves a 7.4% improvement in mAP@0.5 and a 4.9% improvement in mAP@0.5:0.95. Additionally, the overall performance of this algorithm surpassed various algorithms in the YOLO series, including YOLOv3, YOLOv5l, YOLOv5m, and YOLOv8s. © 2024 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.

Employing feature mixture for active learning of object detection

Active learning aims to select the most informative samples for annotation from a large amount of unlabeled data, in order to reduce time-consuming and labor-intensive manual labeling efforts. Although active learning for object detection has made substantial progress in recent years, developing an accurate and efficient active learning algorithm for object detection remains a challenge. In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised active learning method for deep object detection. This is based on our hypotheses that an object is more likely to be wrongly predicted by the model, if the prediction changes when its feature representations are slightly mixed by another feature representations at a very small ratio. Such unlabeled samples can be regarded as informative samples that can be selected by active learning. Our method employs base representations of all categories generated from the object detection network to examine the robustness of every detected object. We design a scoring function to calculate the informative score of each unlabeled image. We conduct extensive experiments on two public datasets, i.e., PASCAL VOC and MS-COCO. Experiment results show that our approach consistently outperforms state-of-the-art single-model based methods with significant margins. Our approach also performs on par with multi-model based methods, at much lesser computational cost.

The equivalences of community detection methods for bipartite networks

Abstract Investigating the community structures of bipartite networks is a frequent topic of discussion in the ecological and social fields. The most widely used methods, as proposed by numerous academics from varying perspectives, include spectral graph partitioning, modularity, nonnegative matrix factorization, and stochastic block model. In this paper, we demonstrate three equivalences among these four methods. One, both Dhillon spectral graph partitioning and Barber modularity clustering are equivalent to solving for the matrix's left and right singular vectors after relaxing the discrete constraints. Two, the nonnegative matrix factorization clustering is equivalent to the Dhillon spectral graph partitioning. Three, The bipartite stochastic block model is equivalent to the constraint-based NMF that uses K-L divergence as its cost function. These equivalences, obtained through rigorous mathematical derivations, will aid in the future development of efficient algorithms for community detection in bipartite networks.

An efficient algorithm for multi-scale maritime object detection and recognition

Due to the complexity of the maritime environment and the diversity of the volume and shape of monitored objects in the maritime, existing object detection algorithms based on Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are challenging to balance the requirements of high accuracy and high real-time simultaneously in the field of maritime object detection. In response to the characteristics of complex backgrounds, significant differences in object size between categories, and the characteristic of having a large number of small objects in maritime surveillance videos and images, the Maritime dataset with rich scenes and object categories was self-made, and the OS-YOLOv7 algorithm was proposed based on the YOLOv7 algorithm. Firstly, a feature enhancement module named the TC-ELAN module based on the self-attention mechanism was designed, which enables the feature map used for detection to obtain enhanced semantic information fused from multiple scale features. Secondly, in order to enhance the attention to the area of dense small objects and further improve the positioning accuracy of occluded small objects, this study redesigned the SPPCSPC structure. Then, the network structure was improved to alleviate the problem of decreased object detection accuracy caused by the loss of semantic feature information. Finally, experimental results on self-made datasets and mainstream maritime object detection datasets show that OS-YOLOv7 has a better object detection effect compared to other state-of-the-art (SOTA) object detection algorithms at the cost of reasonable inference time and parameter quantity and can achieve good object detection accuracy on mainstream datasets with high real-time performance.

A computational tool was developed to provide relevant information to the utility Operation Center to initiate an emergency maintenance.

Efficient genetic algorithm for spam mail detection and classification

E-mail is the quickest tool to convey information from one to others. Individual users and organizations have become more reliant on e-mails as technology advances. At the moment, all email inboxes are swamped with spam and these cause significant and diverse difficulties, such as the loss of crucial information and the theft of the recipient’s identity. Organizations may suffer significant losses. As a result, users cannot avoid spam emails, which come in various formats such as advertisements and messages. Spam filtering removes spam messages and prevents them from being accessed. This paper focuses on categorization of e-mails by using genetic algorithm. The proposed approach uses entropy to evaluate information gain, which is subsequently employed by the genetic algorithm classifier to choose important features from the spam database. The model performance is then assessed by using the testing dataset with all 57 features, a crossover probability of 0.3, and a mutation probability of 1.0 and obtained good accuracy.

Phase sensitive detection for embedded sensors

The measurement of some physical properties requires detection of both amplitude and phase of an applied test signal. In portable sensors, this needs to be performed locally with integrated analog circuits or digital processing. Wireless sensor network allows the measurements over wide areas but raises a challenge of using efficient algorithm for phase sensitive detection (PSD) in nodes with constrained processing capacity. It is not straightforward to compare different PSD methods because their performance is closely related to the fine tuning of their parameters such as filter order and cut-off frequency. We propose a methodology to compare several PSD methods subjected to the same response time to assess its ability to provide accurate estimation in the presence of noise. We also determine the computational complexity of the investigated methods in terms of the number of operations required. We investigate both continuous and windowed operation. The methods were tested through simulations and verified using a dedicated embedded system. Our findings demonstrate that Goertzel algorithm rendered the best results, with smaller estimation error and less computation complexity.

An efficient unused integrated circuits detection algorithm for parallel scan architecture

In recent days, many integrated circuits (ICs) are operated parallelly to increase switching operations in on-chip static random access memory (SRAM) array, due to more complex tasks and parallel operations being executed in many digital systems. Hence, it is important to efficiently identify the long-duration unused ICs in the on-chip SRAM memory array layout and to effectively distribute the task to unused ICs in SRAM memory array. In the present globalization, semiconductor supply chain detection of unused SRAM in large memory arrays is a very difficult task. This also results in reduced lifetime and more power dissipation. To overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks, an efficient unused integrated circuits detection algorithm (ICDA) for parallel scan architecture is proposed to differentiate the ‘0’ and ‘1’ in a larger SRAM memory array. The proposed architecture avoids the unbalancing of ‘0’ and ‘1’ concentrations in the on-chip SRAM memory array and also optimizes the area required for the memory array. As per simulation results, the proposed method is more efficient in terms of reliability, the detection rate in both used and unused ICs and reduction of power dissipation in comparison to conventional methods such as backscattering side-channel analysis (BSCA) and network attached storage (NAS) algorithm.

YOLOvT: CSPNet-based attention for a lightweight textile defect detection model

Fabric inspection is a crucial process in the textile industry's quality control. Due to the varying structures, textures, geometric features, and spatial distributions of fabric defects, manual fabric inspection is costly and inefficient. Existing fabric defect detection algorithms struggle to strike a balance among efficiency, accuracy, applicability, and deployment costs. In this model, an efficient lightweight fabric defect detection and classification algorithm based on deep convolutional neural networks is proposed. First, the algorithm performs cluster analysis on the fabric defect dataset to ensure that prior boxes better recall objects with fabric defect geometries and spatial characteristics. Next is fusing the convolutional block attention module attention mechanism and Swin Transformer module with the CSPNet structure. This fusion enhances the model's focus on local features and its ability to capture global contextual information without sacrificing the model's inference speed. Moreover, WIoU or Wise-IoU is used as the bounding box loss function of the model, which improves the convergence speed of the bounding box loss and enhances the positioning ability of the model. Finally, the performance of the improved model was validated on a public dataset, showing varying degrees of improvement compared to the baseline model and other state-of-the-art algorithms, meeting the requirements of modern textile processes.

Efficient Cross-Modality Insulator Augmentation for Multi-Domain Insulator Defect Detection in UAV Images.

Regular inspection of the insulator operating status is essential to ensure the safe and stable operation of the power system. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) inspection has played an important role in transmission line inspection, replacing former manual inspection. With the development of deep learning technologies, deep learning-based insulator defect detection methods have drawn more and more attention and gained great improvement. However, former insulator defect detection methods mostly focus on designing complex refined network architecture, which will increase inference complexity in real applications. In this paper, we propose a novel efficient cross-modality insulator augmentation algorithm for multi-domain insulator defect detection to mimic real complex scenarios. It also alleviates the overfitting problem without adding the inference resources. The high-resolution insulator cross-modality translation (HICT) module is designed to generate multi-modality insulator images with rich texture information to eliminate the adverse effects of existing modality discrepancy. We propose the multi-domain insulator multi-scale spatial augmentation (MMA) module to simultaneously augment multi-domain insulator images with different spatial scales and leverage these fused images and location information to help the target model locate defects with various scales more accurately. Experimental results prove that the proposed cross-modality insulator augmentation algorithm can achieve superior performance in public UPID and SFID insulator defect datasets. Moreover, the proposed algorithm also gives a new perspective for improving insulator defect detection precision without adding inference resources, which is of great significance for advancing the detection of transmission lines.

Enhancing elderly care: Efficient and reliable real-time fall detection algorithm.

Falls pose a significant risk to public health, especially for the elderly population, and could potentially result in severe injuries or even death. A reliable fall detection system is urgently needed to recognise and promptly alert to falls effectively. A vision-based fall detection system has the advantage of being non-invasive and affordable compared with another popular approach using wearable sensors. Nevertheless, the present challenge lies in the algorithm's limited on-device operating speed due to extremely high computational demands, and the high computational demands are usually essential to improve the performance for the complex scene. Therefore, it is crucial to address the above challenge in computational power and complex scenes. This article presents the implementation of a real-time fall detection algorithm with low computational costs using a single webcam. The suggested method optimises precision and efficiency by synthesising the strengths of background subtraction and the human pose estimation model BlazePose. The biomechanical features, derived from body key points identified by BlazePose, are utilised in a random forest model for classifying fall events. The proposed algorithm achieves 89.99% accuracy and 29.7 FPS with a laptop CPU on the UR Fall Detection dataset and the Le2i Fall Detection dataset. The algorithm shows great generalisation and robustness in different scenarios. Due to the low computational power of the system, the findings also suggest the potential for implementing the system in small-scale medical monitoring equipment, which maximises its practical value in digital health.

P-Bifurcation Analysis of a Quarter-Car Model With Inerter-Based Pendulum Vibration Absorber: A Wiener Path Integration Approach

Abstract In this theoretical study, a recently developed inerter-based pendulum vibration absorber (IPVA) coupled with energy harvesting capabilities is applied to the quarter car model with class C road conditions (ISO 8608). The impact of varying the pendulum length parameter on power harvesting, ride comfort (sprung mass acceleration), and road handling is investigated. It is discovered that P-bifurcation of the probability density function (PDF), can simultaneously occur with enhanced output power (40% improvements), low sprung mass acceleration (60% improvements), and better road handling (60% improvements) when compared with the linear benchmark system. To predict this bifurcation, a Wiener path integration (WPI) method coupled with curvature checking is developed for the PDF. An efficient bifurcation detection algorithm is developed which leads to the prediction of monomodal, bimodal, and rotation PDF regions in the noise intensity-electrical damping plane. Using Monte Carlo simulations (MCS), the performance metrics were then compared against the optimal linear benchmark for varying driving speed on a class F road while varying the electrical damping so that the system is at or near P-bifurcation. Energy transfer into the electrical domain and power harvested are shown to be up to 43% and 20% higher than for the optimized linear system, respectively. Electrical efficiency considerations show that generator selection is also a factor. Ride comfort and road handling still saw improvements of at least 59%. Finally, the new algorithm effectively reduces an exhaustive MCS for various parameter configurations when qualitative changes in the PDF are linked to performance.

An efficient feature selection and explainable classification method for EEG-based epileptic seizure detection

Epilepsy is a prevalent neurological disorder that poses life-threatening emergencies. Early electroencephalogram (EEG) seizure detection can mitigate the risks and aid in the treatment of patients with epilepsy. EEG based epileptic seizure (ES) detection has significant applications in epilepsy treatment and medical diagnosis. Therefore, this paper presents an innovative framework for efficient ES detection, providing coefficient and distance correlation feature selection algorithms, a Bagged Tree-based classifer (BTBC), and Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI). Initially, the Butterworth filter is employed to eliminate various artifacts, and the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is used to decompose the EEG signals and extract various eigenvalue features of the statistical time domain (STD) as linear and Fractal dimension-based non-linear (FD-NL). The optimal features are then identified through correlation coefficients with P-value and distance correlation analysis.These features are subsequently utilized by the Bagged Tree-based classifer (BTBC). The proposed model provides best performance in mitigating overfitting issues and improves the average accuracy by 2% using (CD, E), (AB, CD, E), and (A, B) experimental types as compared to other machine learning (ML) models using well-known Bonn and UCI-EEG benchmark datasets. Finally, SHapley additive exPlanation (SHAP) was used to interpret and explain the decision-making process of the proposed model. The results highlight the framework’s capability to accurately classify ES, thereby improving the diagnosis process in patients with brain dysfunctions.
