Considerations For Radio Frequency Fingerprinting Across Multiple Frequency Channels, Jose A. Gutierrez Del Arroyo, Brett J. Borghetti, Michael A. Temple
Faculty Publications
Radio Frequency Fingerprinting (RFF) is often proposed as an authentication mechanism for wireless device security, but application of existing techniques in multi-channel scenarios is limited because prior models were created and evaluated using bursts from a single frequency channel without considering the effects of multi-channel operation. Our research evaluated the multi-channel performance of four single-channel models with increasing complexity, to include a simple discriminant analysis model and three neural networks. Performance characterization using the multi-class Matthews Correlation Coefficient (MCC) revealed that using frequency channels other than those used to train the models can lead to a deterioration in performance from …
Using Generative Adversarial Networks To Augment Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Image Classification Training Sets, Benjamin J. Mccloskey
Using Generative Adversarial Networks To Augment Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Image Classification Training Sets, Benjamin J. Mccloskey
Theses and Dissertations
A challenging task in computer vision is finding techniques to improve the object detection and classification capabilities of ML models used for processing images acquired by moving aerial platforms. This research explores if GAN augmented UAV training sets can increase the generalizability of a detection model trained on said data. To answer this question, the YOLOv4-Tiny Object Detection Model was trained with aerial image training sets depicting rural environments. The salient objects within the frames were recreated using various GAN architectures, placed back into the original frames, and the augmented frames appended to the original training sets. GAN augmentation on …
Generalized Robust Feature Selection, Bradford L. Lott
Generalized Robust Feature Selection, Bradford L. Lott
Theses and Dissertations
Feature selection may be summarized as identifying salient features to a given response. Understanding which features affect the response enables, in the future, only collecting consequential data; hence, the feature selection algorithm may lead to saving effort spent collecting data, storage resources, as well as computational resources for making predictions. We propose a generalized approach to select the salient features of data sets. Our approach may also be applied to unsupervised datasets to understand which data streams provide unique information. We contend our approach identifies salient features robust to the sub-sequent predictive model applied. The proposed algorithm considers all provided …
Smoothing Of Convolutional Neural Network Classifications, Glen R. Drumm
Smoothing Of Convolutional Neural Network Classifications, Glen R. Drumm
Theses and Dissertations
Smoothing convolutional neural networks is investigated. When intermittent and random false predictions happen, a technique of average smoothing is applied to smooth out the incorrect predictions. While a simple problem environment shows proof of concept, obstacles remain for applying such a technique to a more operationally complex problem.
