The paper discusses the consequences of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks in various application areas of Internet of Things (IoT). In this paper, we have analyzed the performance of machine learning(ML)-based classifiers including bagging and boosting techniques for the binary classification of attack traffic. For the analysis, we have used the benchmark CICDDoS2019 dataset which deals with DDoS attacks based on User Datagram Protocol (UDP) and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) in order to study new kinds of attacks. Since these protocols are widely used for communication in IoT networks, this data has been used for studying DDoS attacks in the IoT domain. Since the data is highly unbalanced, data balancing is done using an ensemble sampling approach comprising random under-sampler and ADAptive SYNthetic (ADASYN) oversampling technique. Feature selection is achieved using two methods, i.e., (a) Pearson correlation coefficient and (b) Extra Tree classifier. Further, performance is evaluated for ML classifiers viz. Random Forest (RF), Naïve Bayes (NB), support vector machine (SVM), AdaBoost, eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and Gradient Boosting (GB) algorithms. It is found that RF has given the best performance with the least training and prediction time. Further, it is found that feature selection using extra trees classifier is more efficient as compared to the Pearson correlation coefficient method in terms of total time required in training and prediction for most classifiers. It is found that RF has given best performance with least time along with feature selection using Pearson correlation coefficient in attack detection.","PeriodicalId":54732,"journal":{"name":"Networks and Heterogeneous Media","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70228479","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To solve the equation numerically, L1 discretisation to each fractional derivative is used on a graded temporal mesh, together with a standard finite difference method for the spatial derivatives on a uniform spatial mesh.

However, the methods' performance improvements were insignificant, while time and hardware costs increased dramatically due to re-modeling. To tackle this problem, this study sought a simple, lightweight, yet more accurate solution for RSI semantic classification (RSI-SC). At first, we proposed a set of mathematical derivations to analyze and identify the best way among different technical roadmaps. Afterward, we selected a simple route that can significantly boost a single CNN's performance while maintaining simplicity and reducing costs in time and hardware. The proposed method, called RE-EfficientNet, only consists of a lightweight EfficientNet-B3 and a concise training algorithm named RE-CNN. The novelty of RE-EfficientNet and RE-CNN includes the following: First, EfficientNet-B3 employs transfer learning from ImageNet-1K and excludes any complicated re-modeling. It can adequately utilize the easily accessible pre-trained weights for time savings and avoid the pre-training effect being weakened due to re-modeling. Second, RE-CNN includes an effective combination of data augmentation (DA) transformations and two modified training tricks (TTs). It can alleviate the data distribution shift from DA-processed training sets and make the TTs more effective through modification according to the inherent nature of RSI. Extensive experimental results on two RSI sets prove that RE-EfficientNet can surpass all 30 cutting-edge methods published before 2023. It gives a remarkable improvement of 0.50% to 0.75% in overall accuracy (OA) and a 75% or more reduction in parameters. The ablation experiment also reveals that RE-CNN can improve CNN OA by 0.55% to 1.10%. All the results indicate that RE-EfficientNet is a simple, lightweight and more accurate solution for RSI-SC. In addition, we argue that the ideas proposed in this work about how to choose an appropriate model and training algorithm can help us find more efficient approaches in the future.","PeriodicalId":54732,"journal":{"name":"Networks and Heterogeneous Media","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70228453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The underlying interaction network is complete. At every time step, a fixed number of individuals are added to the population. The opinion of the new individuals may or may not depend on the current configuration of opinions in the population. Further, in each time step, a fixed number of individuals are chosen and they update their opinion in three possible ways: they organically switch their opinion with some probability and with some probability they adopt the majority or the minority opinion. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the fraction of individuals with either opinion and characterize conditions under which it converges to a deterministic limit. We analyze the behaviour of the limiting fraction as a function of the probability of new individuals having opinion 1 as well as with respect to the ratio of the number of people being added to the population and the number of people being chosen to update opinions. We also discuss the nature of fluctuations around the limiting fraction and study the transitions in scaling depending on the system parameters. Further, for this opinion dynamics model on a finite time horizon, we obtain optimal external influencing strategies in terms of when to influence to get the maximum expected fraction of individuals with opinion 1 at the end of the finite time horizon.","PeriodicalId":54732,"journal":{"name":"Networks and Heterogeneous Media","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70228015","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
