The classification method of encrypted traffic based on GNN can deal with encrypted traffic well. However, existing GNN-based approaches ignore the relationship between client or server packets. In this paper, we design a network traffic topology based on GCN, called Flow Mapping Graph (FMG). FMG establishes sequential edges between vertexes by the arrival order of packets and establishes jump-order edges between vertexes by connecting packets in different bursts with the same direction. It not only reflects the time characteristics of the packet but also strengthens the relationship between the client or server packets. According to FMG, a Traffic Mapping Classification model (TMC-GCN) is designed, which can automatically capture and learn the characteristics and structure information of the top vertex in FMG. The TMC-GCN model is used to classify the encrypted traffic. The encryption stream classification problem is transformed into a graph classification problem, which can effectively deal with data from different data sources and application scenarios. By comparing the performance of TMC-GCN with other classical models in four public datasets, including CICIOT2023, ISCXVPN2016, CICAAGM2017, and GraphDapp, the effectiveness of the FMG algorithm is verified. The experimental results show that the accuracy rate of the TMC-GCN model is 96.13%, the recall rate is 95.04%, and the F1 rate is 94.54%.展开更多

文摘Studies show that Graph Neural Networks(GNNs)are susceptible to minor perturbations.Therefore,analyzing adversarial attacks on GNNs is crucial in current research.Previous studies used Generative Adversarial Networks to generate a set of fake nodes,injecting them into a clean GNNs to poison the graph structure and evaluate the robustness of GNNs.In the attack process,the computation of new node connections and the attack loss are independent,which affects the attack on the GNN.To improve this,a Fake Node Camouflage Attack based on Mutual Information(FNCAMI)algorithm is proposed.By incorporating Mutual Information(MI)loss,the distribution of nodes injected into the GNNs become more similar to the original nodes,achieving better attack results.Since the loss ratios of GNNs and MI affect performance,we also design an adaptive weighting method.By adjusting the loss weights in real-time through rate changes,larger loss values are obtained,eliminating local optima.The feasibility,effectiveness,and stealthiness of this algorithm are validated on four real datasets.Additionally,we use both global and targeted attacks to test the algorithm’s performance.Comparisons with baseline attack algorithms and ablation experiments demonstrate the efficiency of the FNCAMI algorithm.

文摘Accurate traffic pattern prediction in largescale networks is of great importance for intelligent system management and automatic resource allocation.System-level mobile traffic forecasting has significant challenges due to the tremendous temporal and spatial dynamics introduced by diverse Internet user behaviors and frequent traffic migration.Spatialtemporal graph modeling is an efficient approach for analyzing the spatial relations and temporal trends of mobile traffic in a large system.Previous research may not reflect the optimal dependency by ignoring inter-base station dependency or pre-determining the explicit geological distance as the interrelationship of base stations.To overcome the limitations of graph structure,this study proposes an adaptive graph convolutional network(AGCN)that captures the latent spatial dependency by developing self-adaptive dependency matrices and acquires temporal dependency using recurrent neural networks.Evaluated on two mobile network datasets,the experimental results demonstrate that this method outperforms other baselines and reduces the mean absolute error by 3.7%and 5.6%compared to time-series based approaches.

文摘With the emphasis on user privacy and communication security, encrypted traffic has increased dramatically, which brings great challenges to traffic classification. The classification method of encrypted traffic based on GNN can deal with encrypted traffic well. However, existing GNN-based approaches ignore the relationship between client or server packets. In this paper, we design a network traffic topology based on GCN, called Flow Mapping Graph (FMG). FMG establishes sequential edges between vertexes by the arrival order of packets and establishes jump-order edges between vertexes by connecting packets in different bursts with the same direction. It not only reflects the time characteristics of the packet but also strengthens the relationship between the client or server packets. According to FMG, a Traffic Mapping Classification model (TMC-GCN) is designed, which can automatically capture and learn the characteristics and structure information of the top vertex in FMG. The TMC-GCN model is used to classify the encrypted traffic. The encryption stream classification problem is transformed into a graph classification problem, which can effectively deal with data from different data sources and application scenarios. By comparing the performance of TMC-GCN with other classical models in four public datasets, including CICIOT2023, ISCXVPN2016, CICAAGM2017, and GraphDapp, the effectiveness of the FMG algorithm is verified. The experimental results show that the accuracy rate of the TMC-GCN model is 96.13%, the recall rate is 95.04%, and the F1 rate is 94.54%.

文摘Quantum machine learning is an important application of quantum computing in the era of noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices.Domain adaptation(DA)is an effective method for addressing the distribution discrepancy problem between the training data and the real data when the neural network model is deployed.In this paper,we propose a variational quantum domain adaptation method inspired by the quantum convolutional neural network,named variational quantum domain adaptation(VQDA).The data are first uploaded by a‘quantum coding module',then the feature information is extracted by several‘quantum convolution layers'and‘quantum pooling layers',which is named‘Feature Extractor'.Subsequently,the labels and the domains of the samples are obtained by the‘quantum fully connected layer'.With a gradient reversal module,the trained‘Feature Extractor'can extract the features that cannot be distinguished from the source and target domains.The simulations on the local computer and IBM Quantum Experience(IBM Q)platform by Qiskit show the effectiveness of the proposed method.The results show that VQDA(with 8 quantum bits)has 91.46%average classification accuracy for DA task between MNIST→USPS(USPS→MNIST),achieves 91.16%average classification accuracy for gray-scale and color images(with 10 quantum bits),and has 69.25%average classification accuracy on the DA task for color images(also with 10 quantum bits).VQDA achieves a 9.14%improvement in average classification accuracy compared to its corresponding classical domain adaptation method with the same parameter scale for different DA tasks.Simultaneously,the parameters scale is reduced to 43%by using VQDA when both quantum and classical DA methods have similar classification accuracies.
文摘A significant advantage of medical image processing is that it allows non-invasive exploration of internal anatomy in great detail.It is possible to create and study 3D models of anatomical structures to improve treatment outcomes,develop more effective medical devices,or arrive at a more accurate diagnosis.This paper aims to present a fused evolutionary algorithm that takes advantage of both whale optimization and bacterial foraging optimization to optimize feature extraction.The classification process was conducted with the aid of a convolu-tional neural network(CNN)with dual graphs.Evaluation of the performance of the fused model is carried out with various methods.In the initial input Com-puter Tomography(CT)image,150 images are pre-processed and segmented to identify cancerous and non-cancerous nodules.The geometrical,statistical,struc-tural,and texture features are extracted from the preprocessed segmented image using various methods such as Gray-level co-occurrence matrix(GLCM),Histo-gram-oriented gradient features(HOG),and Gray-level dependence matrix(GLDM).To select the optimal features,a novel fusion approach known as Whale-Bacterial Foraging Optimization is proposed.For the classification of lung cancer,dual graph convolutional neural networks have been employed.A com-parison of classification algorithms and optimization algorithms has been con-ducted.According to the evaluated results,the proposed fused algorithm is successful with an accuracy of 98.72%in predicting lung tumors,and it outper-forms other conventional approaches.

文摘Graph Convolutional Neural Networks(GCNs)have been widely used in various fields due to their powerful capabilities in processing graph-structured data.However,GCNs encounter significant challenges when applied to scale-free graphs with power-law distributions,resulting in substantial distortions.Moreover,most of the existing GCN models are shallow structures,which restricts their ability to capture dependencies among distant nodes and more refined high-order node features in scale-free graphs with hierarchical structures.To more broadly and precisely apply GCNs to real-world graphs exhibiting scale-free or hierarchical structures and utilize multi-level aggregation of GCNs for capturing high-level information in local representations,we propose the Hyperbolic Deep Graph Convolutional Neural Network(HDGCNN),an end-to-end deep graph representation learning framework that can map scale-free graphs from Euclidean space to hyperbolic space.In HDGCNN,we define the fundamental operations of deep graph convolutional neural networks in hyperbolic space.Additionally,we introduce a hyperbolic feature transformation method based on identity mapping and a dense connection scheme based on a novel non-local message passing framework.In addition,we present a neighborhood aggregation method that combines initial structural featureswith hyperbolic attention coefficients.Through the above methods,HDGCNN effectively leverages both the structural features and node features of graph data,enabling enhanced exploration of non-local structural features and more refined node features in scale-free or hierarchical graphs.Experimental results demonstrate that HDGCNN achieves remarkable performance improvements over state-ofthe-art GCNs in node classification and link prediction tasks,even when utilizing low-dimensional embedding representations.Furthermore,when compared to shallow hyperbolic graph convolutional neural network models,HDGCNN exhibits notable advantages and performance enhancements.

文摘The prediction for Multivariate Time Series(MTS)explores the interrelationships among variables at historical moments,extracts their relevant characteristics,and is widely used in finance,weather,complex industries and other fields.Furthermore,it is important to construct a digital twin system.However,existing methods do not take full advantage of the potential properties of variables,which results in poor predicted accuracy.In this paper,we propose the Adaptive Fused Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network(AFSTGCN).First,to address the problem of the unknown spatial-temporal structure,we construct the Adaptive Fused Spatial-Temporal Graph(AFSTG)layer.Specifically,we fuse the spatial-temporal graph based on the interrelationship of spatial graphs.Simultaneously,we construct the adaptive adjacency matrix of the spatial-temporal graph using node embedding methods.Subsequently,to overcome the insufficient extraction of disordered correlation features,we construct the Adaptive Fused Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional(AFSTGC)module.The module forces the reordering of disordered temporal,spatial and spatial-temporal dependencies into rule-like data.AFSTGCN dynamically and synchronously acquires potential temporal,spatial and spatial-temporal correlations,thereby fully extracting rich hierarchical feature information to enhance the predicted accuracy.Experiments on different types of MTS datasets demonstrate that the model achieves state-of-the-art single-step and multi-step performance compared with eight other deep learning models.
文摘Existing segmentation and augmentation techniques on convolutional neural network(CNN)has produced remarkable progress in object detection.However,the nominal accuracy and performance might be downturned with the photometric variation of images that are directly ignored in the training process,along with the context of the individual CNN algorithm.In this paper,we investigate the effect of a photometric variation like brightness and sharpness on different CNN.We observe that random augmentation of images weakens the performance unless the augmentation combines the weak limits of photometric variation.Our approach has been justified by the experimental result obtained from the PASCAL VOC 2007 dataset,with object detection CNN algorithms such as YOLOv3(You Only Look Once),Faster R-CNN(Region-based CNN),and SSD(Single Shot Multibox Detector).Each CNN model shows performance loss for varying sharpness and brightness,ranging between−80%to 80%.It was further shown that compared to random augmentation,the augmented dataset with weak photometric changes delivered high performance,but the photometric augmentation range differs for each model.Concurrently,we discuss some research questions that benefit the direction of the study.The results prove the importance of adaptive augmentation for individual CNN model,subjecting towards the robustness of object detection.

文摘The surge in connected devices and massive data aggregation has expanded the scale of the Internet of Things(IoT)networks.The proliferation of unknown attacks and related risks,such as zero-day attacks and Distributed Denial of Service(DDoS)attacks triggered by botnets,have resulted in information leakage and property damage.Therefore,developing an efficient and realistic intrusion detection system(IDS)is critical for ensuring IoT network security.In recent years,traditional machine learning techniques have struggled to learn the complex associations between multidimensional features in network traffic,and the excellent performance of deep learning techniques,as an advanced version of machine learning,has led to their widespread application in intrusion detection.In this paper,we propose an Adaptive Particle Swarm Optimization Convolutional Neural Network Squeeze-andExcitation(APSO-CNN-SE)model for implementing IoT network intrusion detection.A 2D CNN backbone is initially constructed to extract spatial features from network traffic.Subsequently,a squeeze-and-excitation channel attention mechanism is introduced and embedded into the CNN to focus on critical feature channels.Lastly,the weights and biases in the CNN-SE are extracted to initialize the population individuals of the APSO.As the number of iterations increases,the population’s position vector is continuously updated,and the cross-entropy loss function value is minimized to produce the ideal network architecture.We evaluated the models experimentally using binary and multiclassification on the UNSW-NB15 and NSL-KDD datasets,comparing and analyzing the evaluation metrics derived from each model.Compared to the base CNN model,the results demonstrate that APSO-CNNSE enhances the binary classification detection accuracy by 1.84%and 3.53%and the multiclassification detection accuracy by 1.56%and 2.73%on the two datasets,respectively.Additionally,the model outperforms the existing models like DT,KNN,LR,SVM,LSTM,etc.,in terms of accuracy and fitting performance.This means that the model can identify potential attacks or anomalies more precisely,improving the overall security and stability of the IoT environment.

文摘Hyperspectral image classification stands as a pivotal task within the field of remote sensing,yet achieving highprecision classification remains a significant challenge.In response to this challenge,a Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm(AFLA-SCNN)is proposed.The Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm(AFLA)constitutes a novel metaheuristic algorithm introduced herein,encompassing three new strategies:Adaptive weight factor,Gaussian mutation,and probability update policy.With adaptive weight factor,the algorithmcan adjust theweights according to the change in the number of iterations to improve the performance of the algorithm.Gaussianmutation helps the algorithm avoid falling into local optimal solutions and improves the searchability of the algorithm.The probability update strategy helps to improve the exploitability and adaptability of the algorithm.Within the AFLA-SCNN model,AFLA is employed to optimize two hyperparameters in the SCNN model,namely,“numEpochs”and“miniBatchSize”,to attain their optimal values.AFLA’s performance is initially validated across 28 functions in 10D,30D,and 50D for CEC2013 and 29 functions in 10D,30D,and 50D for CEC2017.Experimental results indicate AFLA’s marked performance superiority over nine other prominent optimization algorithms.Subsequently,the AFLA-SCNN model was compared with the Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Fick’s Law Algorithm(FLA-SCNN),Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Harris Hawks Optimization(HHO-SCNN),Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based onDifferential Evolution(DE-SCNN),SpectralConvolutionalNeuralNetwork(SCNN)model,and SupportVector Machines(SVM)model using the Indian Pines dataset and PaviaUniversity dataset.The experimental results show that the AFLA-SCNN model outperforms other models in terms of Accuracy,Precision,Recall,and F1-score on Indian Pines and Pavia University.Among them,the Accuracy of the AFLA-SCNN model on Indian Pines reached 99.875%,and the Accuracy on PaviaUniversity reached 98.022%.In conclusion,our proposed AFLA-SCNN model is deemed to significantly enhance the precision of hyperspectral image classification.

文摘Graph convolutional networks(GCNs)have received significant attention from various research fields due to the excellent performance in learning graph representations.Although GCN performs well compared with other methods,it still faces challenges.Training a GCN model for large-scale graphs in a conventional way requires high computation and storage costs.Therefore,motivated by an urgent need in terms of efficiency and scalability in training GCN,sampling methods have been proposed and achieved a significant effect.In this paper,we categorize sampling methods based on the sampling mechanisms and provide a comprehensive survey of sampling methods for efficient training of GCN.To highlight the characteristics and differences of sampling methods,we present a detailed comparison within each category and further give an overall comparative analysis for the sampling methods in all categories.Finally,we discuss some challenges and future research directions of the sampling methods.
文摘The ever-growing available visual data(i.e.,uploaded videos and pictures by internet users)has attracted the research community’s attention in the computer vision field.Therefore,finding efficient solutions to extract knowledge from these sources is imperative.Recently,the BlazePose system has been released for skeleton extraction from images oriented to mobile devices.With this skeleton graph representation in place,a Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network can be implemented to predict the action.We hypothesize that just by changing the skeleton input data for a different set of joints that offers more information about the action of interest,it is possible to increase the performance of the Spatial-Temporal Graph Convolutional Network for HAR tasks.Hence,in this study,we present the first implementation of the BlazePose skeleton topology upon this architecture for action recognition.Moreover,we propose the Enhanced-BlazePose topology that can achieve better results than its predecessor.Additionally,we propose different skeleton detection thresholds that can improve the accuracy performance even further.We reached a top-1 accuracy performance of 40.1%on the Kinetics dataset.For the NTU-RGB+D dataset,we achieved 87.59%and 92.1%accuracy for Cross-Subject and Cross-View evaluation criteria,respectively.

文摘Feature fusion is an important technique in medical image classification that can improve diagnostic accuracy by integrating complementary information from multiple sources.Recently,Deep Learning(DL)has been widely used in pulmonary disease diagnosis,such as pneumonia and tuberculosis.However,traditional feature fusion methods often suffer from feature disparity,information loss,redundancy,and increased complexity,hindering the further extension of DL algorithms.To solve this problem,we propose a Graph-Convolution Fusion Network with Self-Supervised Feature Alignment(Self-FAGCFN)to address the limitations of traditional feature fusion methods in deep learning-based medical image classification for respiratory diseases such as pneumonia and tuberculosis.The network integrates Convolutional Neural Networks(CNNs)for robust feature extraction from two-dimensional grid structures and Graph Convolutional Networks(GCNs)within a Graph Neural Network branch to capture features based on graph structure,focusing on significant node representations.Additionally,an Attention-Embedding Ensemble Block is included to capture critical features from GCN outputs.To ensure effective feature alignment between pre-and post-fusion stages,we introduce a feature alignment loss that minimizes disparities.Moreover,to address the limitations of proposed methods,such as inappropriate centroid discrepancies during feature alignment and class imbalance in the dataset,we develop a Feature-Centroid Fusion(FCF)strategy and a Multi-Level Feature-Centroid Update(MLFCU)algorithm,respectively.Extensive experiments on public datasets LungVision and Chest-Xray demonstrate that the Self-FAGCFN model significantly outperforms existing methods in diagnosing pneumonia and tuberculosis,highlighting its potential for practical medical applications.

文摘Appropriately characterising the mixed space-time relations of the contagion process caused by hybrid space and time factors remains the primary challenge in COVID-19 forecasting.However,in previous deep learning models for epidemic forecasting,spatial and temporal variations are captured separately.A unified model is developed to cover all spatio-temporal relations.However,this measure is insufficient for modelling the complex spatio-temporal relations of infectious disease transmission.A dynamic adaptive spatio-temporal graph network(DASTGN)is proposed based on attention mechanisms to improve prediction accuracy.In DASTGN,complex spatio-temporal relations are depicted by adaptively fusing the mixed space-time effects and dynamic space-time dependency structure.This dual-scale model considers the time-specific,space-specific,and direct effects of the propagation process at the fine-grained level.Furthermore,the model characterises impacts from various space-time neighbour blocks under time-varying interventions at the coarse-grained level.The performance comparisons on the three COVID-19 datasets reveal that DASTGN achieves state-of-the-art results with a maximum improvement of 17.092%in the root mean-square error and 11.563%in the mean absolute error.Experimental results indicate that the mechanisms of designing DASTGN can effectively detect some spreading characteristics of COVID-19.The spatio-temporal weight matrices learned in each proposed module reveal diffusion patterns in various scenarios.In conclusion,DASTGN has successfully captured the dynamic spatio-temporal variations of COVID-19,and considering multiple dynamic space-time relationships is essential in epidemic forecasting.
文摘Deep neural network-based relational extraction research has made significant progress in recent years,andit provides data support for many natural language processing downstream tasks such as building knowledgegraph,sentiment analysis and question-answering systems.However,previous studies ignored much unusedstructural information in sentences that could enhance the performance of the relation extraction task.Moreover,most existing dependency-based models utilize self-attention to distinguish the importance of context,whichhardly deals withmultiple-structure information.To efficiently leverage multiple structure information,this paperproposes a dynamic structure attention mechanism model based on textual structure information,which deeplyintegrates word embedding,named entity recognition labels,part of speech,dependency tree and dependency typeinto a graph convolutional network.Specifically,our model extracts text features of different structures from theinput sentence.Textual Structure information Graph Convolutional Networks employs the dynamic structureattention mechanism to learn multi-structure attention,effectively distinguishing important contextual features invarious structural information.In addition,multi-structure weights are carefully designed as amergingmechanismin the different structure attention to dynamically adjust the final attention.This paper combines these featuresand trains a graph convolutional network for relation extraction.We experiment on supervised relation extractiondatasets including SemEval 2010 Task 8,TACRED,TACREV,and Re-TACED,the result significantly outperformsthe previous.
