Toward Building An Intelligent And Secure Network: An Internet Traffic Forecasting Perspective, Sajal Saha

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

Internet traffic forecast is a crucial component for the proactive management of self-organizing networks (SON) to ensure better Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE). Given the volatile and random nature of traffic data, this forecasting influences strategic development and investment decisions in the Internet Service Provider (ISP) industry. Modern machine learning algorithms have shown potential in dealing with complex Internet traffic prediction tasks, yet challenges persist. This thesis systematically explores these issues over five empirical studies conducted in the past three years, focusing on four key research questions: How do outlier data samples impact prediction accuracy for …

Classification Of Ddos Attack With Machine Learning Architectures And Exploratory Analysis, Amreen Anbar

Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Repository

The ever-increasing frequency of occurrence and sophistication of DDoS attacks pose a serious threat to network security. Accurate classification of DDoS attacks with efficiency is crucial in order to develop effective defense mechanisms. In this thesis, we propose a novel approach for DDoS classification using the CatBoost algorithm, on CICDDoS2019, a benchmark dataset containing 12 variations of DDoS attacks and legitimate traffic using real-world traffic traces. With a developed ensemble feature selection method and feature engineering, our model proves to be a good fit for DDoS attack type prediction. Our experimental results demonstrate that our proposed approach achieves high classification …

Generalizable Deep-Learning-Based Wireless Indoor Localization, Ali Owfi

All Theses

The growing interest in indoor localization has been driven by its wide range of applications in areas such as smart homes, industrial automation, and healthcare. With the increasing reliance on wireless devices for location-based services, accurate estimation of device positions within indoor environments has become crucial. Deep learning approaches have shown promise in leveraging wireless parameters like Channel State Information (CSI) and Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) to achieve precise localization. However, despite their success in achieving high accuracy, these deep learning models suffer from limited generalizability, making them unsuitable for deployment in new or dynamic environments without retraining. To …

Proposed Mitigation Framework For The Internet Of Insecure Things, Mahmoud M. Elgindy, Sally M. Elghamrawy, Ali I. El-Desouky

Mansoura Engineering Journal

Intrusion detection systems IDS are increasingly utilizing machine learning methods. IDSs are important tools for ensuring the security of network data and resources. The Internet of Things (IoT) is an expanding network of intelligent machines and sensors. However, they are vulnerable to attackers because of the ubiquitous and extensive IoT networks. Datasets from intrusion detection systems (IDS) have been analyzed deep learning methods such as Bidirectional long-short term memory (BiLSTM). This research presents an BiLSTM intrusion detection framework with Principal Component Analysis PCA (PCA-LSTM-IDS). The PCA-LSTM-IDS is comprised of two layers: extracting layer which using PCA, and the anomaly BiLSTM …

Data Integration Based Human Activity Recognition Using Deep Learning Models, Basamma Umesh Patil, D V Ashoka, Ajay Prakash B. V

Karbala International Journal of Modern Science

Regular monitoring of physical activities such as walking, jogging, sitting, and standing will help reduce the risk of many diseases like cardiovascular complications, obesity, and diabetes. Recently, much research showed that the effective development of Human Activity Recognition (HAR) will help in monitoring the physical activities of people and aid in human healthcare. In this concern, deep learning models with a novel automated hyperparameter generator are proposed and implemented to predict human activities such as walking, jogging, walking upstairs, walking downstairs, sitting, and standing more precisely and robustly. Conventional HAR systems are unable to manage real-time changes in the surrounding …

A Flexible Photonic Reduction Network Architecture For Spatial Gemm Accelerators For Deep Learning, Bobby Bose

Theses and Dissertations--Electrical and Computer Engineering

As deep neural network (DNN) models increase significantly in complexity and size, it has become important to increase the computing capability of specialized hardware architectures typically used for DNN processing. The major linear operations of DNNs, which comprise the fully connected and convolution layers, are commonly converted into general matrix-matrix multiplication (GEMM) operations for acceleration. Specialized GEMM accelerators are typically employed to implement these GEMM operations, where a GEMM operation is decomposed into multiple vector-dot-product operations that run in parallel. A common challenge that arises in modern DNNs is the mismatch between the matrices used for GEMM operations and the …

Deep Learning-Based Intrusion Detection Methods For Computer Networks And Privacy-Preserving Authentication Method For Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks, Ayesha Dina

Theses and Dissertations--Computer Science

The incidence of computer network intrusions has significantly increased over the last decade, partially attributed to a thriving underground cyber-crime economy and the widespread availability of advanced tools for launching such attacks. To counter these attacks, researchers in both academia and industry have turned to machine learning (ML) techniques to develop Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSes) for computer networks. However, many of the datasets use to train ML classifiers for detecting intrusions are not balanced, with some classes having fewer samples than others. This can result in ML classifiers producing suboptimal results. In this dissertation, we address this issue and present …

Spatio-Temporal Deep Learning Approaches For Addressing Track Association Problem Using Automatic Identification System (Ais) Data, Md Asif Bin Syed

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports

In the realm of marine surveillance, track association constitutes a pivotal yet challenging task, involving the identification and tracking of unlabelled vessel trajectories. The need for accurate data association algorithms stems from the urge to spot unusual vessel movements or threat detection. These algorithms link sequential observations containing location and motion information to specific moving objects, helping to build their real-time trajectories. These threat detection algorithms will be useful when a vessel attempts to conceal its identity. The algorithm can then identify and track the specific vessel from its incoming signal. The data for this study is sourced from the …
