There are mainly three methods, which are rule set, outlier detection and classification to solve the problem. But those methods have some drawbacks respectively. To overcome these limitations, we propose a new algorithm UAF (Usage Amount Forecast).Firstly, Manhattan distance is used to measure the similarity between fraudulent instances and normal ones. Secondly, UAF gives real-time score which detects the fraud early and reduces as much economic loss as possible. Experiments on various real-world datasets demonstrate the high potential of UAF for processing real-time data and predicting fraudulent users.展开更多

文摘The Intrusion Detection System(IDS)is a security mechanism developed to observe network traffic and recognize suspicious or malicious activities.Clustering algorithms are often incorporated into IDS;however,conventional clustering-based methods face notable drawbacks,including poor scalability in handling high-dimensional datasets and a strong dependence of outcomes on initial conditions.To overcome the performance limitations of existing methods,this study proposes a novel quantum-inspired clustering algorithm that relies on a similarity coefficient-based quantum genetic algorithm(SC-QGA)and an improved quantum artificial bee colony algorithm hybrid K-means(IQABC-K).First,the SC-QGA algorithmis constructed based on quantum computing and integrates similarity coefficient theory to strengthen genetic diversity and feature extraction capabilities.For the subsequent clustering phase,the process based on the IQABC-K algorithm is enhanced with the core improvement of adaptive rotation gate and movement exploitation strategies to balance the exploration capabilities of global search and the exploitation capabilities of local search.Simultaneously,the acceleration of convergence toward the global optimum and a reduction in computational complexity are facilitated by means of the global optimum bootstrap strategy and a linear population reduction strategy.Through experimental evaluation with multiple algorithms and diverse performance metrics,the proposed algorithm confirms reliable accuracy on three datasets:KDD CUP99,NSL_KDD,and UNSW_NB15,achieving accuracy of 98.57%,98.81%,and 98.32%,respectively.These results affirm its potential as an effective solution for practical clustering applications.

文摘Existing feature selection methods for intrusion detection systems in the Industrial Internet of Things often suffer from local optimality and high computational complexity.These challenges hinder traditional IDS from effectively extracting features while maintaining detection accuracy.This paper proposes an industrial Internet ofThings intrusion detection feature selection algorithm based on an improved whale optimization algorithm(GSLDWOA).The aim is to address the problems that feature selection algorithms under high-dimensional data are prone to,such as local optimality,long detection time,and reduced accuracy.First,the initial population’s diversity is increased using the Gaussian Mutation mechanism.Then,Non-linear Shrinking Factor balances global exploration and local development,avoiding premature convergence.Lastly,Variable-step Levy Flight operator and Dynamic Differential Evolution strategy are introduced to improve the algorithm’s search efficiency and convergence accuracy in highdimensional feature space.Experiments on the NSL-KDD and WUSTL-IIoT-2021 datasets demonstrate that the feature subset selected by GSLDWOA significantly improves detection performance.Compared to the traditional WOA algorithm,the detection rate and F1-score increased by 3.68%and 4.12%.On the WUSTL-IIoT-2021 dataset,accuracy,recall,and F1-score all exceed 99.9%.

文摘Impact craters are important for understanding the evolution of lunar geologic and surface erosion rates,among other functions.However,the morphological characteristics of these micro impact craters are not obvious and they are numerous,resulting in low detection accuracy by deep learning models.Therefore,we proposed a new multi-scale fusion crater detection algorithm(MSF-CDA)based on the YOLO11 to improve the accuracy of lunar impact crater detection,especially for small craters with a diameter of<1 km.Using the images taken by the LROC(Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera)at the Chang’e-4(CE-4)landing area,we constructed three separate datasets for craters with diameters of 0-70 m,70-140 m,and>140 m.We then trained three submodels separately with these three datasets.Additionally,we designed a slicing-amplifying-slicing strategy to enhance the ability to extract features from small craters.To handle redundant predictions,we proposed a new Non-Maximum Suppression with Area Filtering method to fuse the results in overlapping targets within the multi-scale submodels.Finally,our new MSF-CDA method achieved high detection performance,with the Precision,Recall,and F1 score having values of 0.991,0.987,and 0.989,respectively,perfectly addressing the problems induced by the lesser features and sample imbalance of small craters.Our MSF-CDA can provide strong data support for more in-depth study of the geological evolution of the lunar surface and finer geological age estimations.This strategy can also be used to detect other small objects with lesser features and sample imbalance problems.We detected approximately 500,000 impact craters in an area of approximately 214 km2 around the CE-4 landing area.By statistically analyzing the new data,we updated the distribution function of the number and diameter of impact craters.Finally,we identified the most suitable lighting conditions for detecting impact crater targets by analyzing the effect of different lighting conditions on the detection accuracy.
文摘Optimizing convolutional neural networks(CNNs)for IoT attack detection remains a critical yet challenging task due to the need to balance multiple performance metrics beyond mere accuracy.This study proposes a unified and flexible optimization framework that leverages metaheuristic algorithms to automatically optimize CNN configurations for IoT attack detection.Unlike conventional single-objective approaches,the proposed method formulates a global multi-objective fitness function that integrates accuracy,precision,recall,and model size(speed/model complexity penalty)with adjustable weights.This design enables both single-objective and weightedsum multi-objective optimization,allowing adaptive selection of optimal CNN configurations for diverse deployment requirements.Two representativemetaheuristic algorithms,GeneticAlgorithm(GA)and Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO),are employed to optimize CNNhyperparameters and structure.At each generation/iteration,the best configuration is selected as themost balanced solution across optimization objectives,i.e.,the one achieving themaximum value of the global objective function.Experimental validation on two benchmark datasets,Edge-IIoT and CIC-IoT2023,demonstrates that the proposed GA-and PSO-based models significantly enhance detection accuracy(94.8%–98.3%)and generalization compared with manually tuned CNN configurations,while maintaining compact architectures.The results confirm that the multi-objective framework effectively balances predictive performance and computational efficiency.This work establishes a generalizable and adaptive optimization strategy for deep learning-based IoT attack detection and provides a foundation for future hybrid metaheuristic extensions in broader IoT security applications.

文摘Deep learning-based intelligent recognition algorithms are increasingly recognized for their potential to address the labor-intensive challenge of manual pest detection.However,their deployment on mobile devices has been constrained by high computational demands.Here,we developed GBiDC-PEST,a mobile application that incorporates an improved,lightweight detection algorithm based on the You Only Look Once(YOLO)series singlestage architecture,for real-time detection of four tiny pests(wheat mites,sugarcane aphids,wheat aphids,and rice planthoppers).GBiDC-PEST incorporates several innovative modules,including GhostNet for lightweight feature extraction and architecture optimization by reconstructing the backbone,the bi-directional feature pyramid network(BiFPN)for enhanced multiscale feature fusion,depthwise convolution(DWConv)layers to reduce computational load,and the convolutional block attention module(CBAM)to enable precise feature focus.The newly developed GBiDC-PEST was trained and validated using a multitarget agricultural tiny pest dataset(Tpest-3960)that covered various field environments.GBiDC-PEST(2.8 MB)significantly reduced the model size to only 20%of the original model size,offering a smaller size than the YOLO series(v5-v10),higher detection accuracy than YOLOv10n and v10s,and faster detection speed than v8s,v9c,v10m and v10b.In Android deployment experiments,GBiDCPEST demonstrated enhanced performance in detecting pests against complex backgrounds,and the accuracy for wheat mites and rice planthoppers was improved by 4.5-7.5%compared with the original model.The GBiDC-PEST optimization algorithm and its mobile deployment proposed in this study offer a robust technical framework for the rapid,onsite identification and localization of tiny pests.This advancement provides valuable insights for effective pest monitoring,counting,and control in various agricultural settings.

文摘The exponential expansion of the Internet of Things(IoT),Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT),and Transportation Management of Things(TMoT)produces vast amounts of real-time streaming data.Ensuring system dependability,operational efficiency,and security depends on the identification of anomalies in these dynamic and resource-constrained systems.Due to their high computational requirements and inability to efficiently process continuous data streams,traditional anomaly detection techniques often fail in IoT systems.This work presents a resource-efficient adaptive anomaly detection model for real-time streaming data in IoT systems.Extensive experiments were carried out on multiple real-world datasets,achieving an average accuracy score of 96.06%with an execution time close to 7.5 milliseconds for each individual streaming data point,demonstrating its potential for real-time,resourceconstrained applications.The model uses Principal Component Analysis(PCA)for dimensionality reduction and a Z-score technique for anomaly detection.It maintains a low computational footprint with a sliding window mechanism,enabling incremental data processing and identification of both transient and sustained anomalies without storing historical data.The system uses a Multivariate Linear Regression(MLR)based imputation technique that estimates missing or corrupted sensor values,preserving data integrity prior to anomaly detection.The suggested solution is appropriate for many uses in smart cities,industrial automation,environmental monitoring,IoT security,and intelligent transportation systems,and is particularly well-suited for resource-constrained edge devices.
文摘Automatic analysis of student behavior in classrooms has gained importance with the rise of smart education and vision technologies.However,the limited real-time accuracy of existing methods severely constrains their practical classroom deployment.To address this issue of low accuracy,we propose an improved YOLOv11-based detector that integrates CARAFE upsampling,DySnakeConv,DyHead,and SMFA fusion modules.This new model for real-time classroom behavior detection captures fine-grained student behaviors with low latency.Additionally,we have developed a visualization system that presents data through intuitive dashboards.This system enables teachers to dynamically grasp classroom engagement by tracking student participation and involvement.The enhanced YOLOv11 model achieves an mAP@0.5 of 87.2%on the evaluated datasets,surpassing baseline models.This significance lies in two aspects.First,it provides a practical technical route for deployable live classroom behavior monitoring and engagement feedback systems.Second,by integrating this proposed system,educators could make data-informed and fine-grained teaching decisions,ultimately improving instructional quality and learning outcomes.

文摘Psychological distress detection plays a critical role in modern healthcare,especially in ambient environments where continuous monitoring is essential for timely intervention.Advances in sensor technology and artificial intelligence(AI)have enabled the development of systems capable of mental health monitoring using multimodal data.However,existing models often struggle with contextual adaptation and real-time decision-making in dynamic settings.This paper addresses these challenges by proposing TRANS-HEALTH,a hybrid framework that integrates transformer-based inference with Belief-Desire-Intention(BDI)reasoning for real-time psychological distress detection.The framework utilizes a multimodal dataset containing EEG,GSR,heart rate,and activity data to predict distress while adapting to individual contexts.The methodology combines deep learning for robust pattern recognition and symbolic BDI reasoning to enable adaptive decision-making.The novelty of the approach lies in its seamless integration of transformermodelswith BDI reasoning,providing both high accuracy and contextual relevance in real time.Performance metrics such as accuracy,precision,recall,and F1-score are employed to evaluate the system’s performance.The results show that TRANS-HEALTH outperforms existing models,achieving 96.1% accuracy with 4.78 ms latency and significantly reducing false alerts,with an enhanced ability to engage users,making it suitable for deployment in wearable and remote healthcare environments.

文摘Cardiovascular diseases(CVDs)continue to present a leading cause ofmortalityworldwide,emphasizing the importance of early and accurate prediction.Electrocardiogram(ECG)signals,central to cardiac monitoring,have increasingly been integratedwithDeep Learning(DL)for real-time prediction of CVDs.However,DL models are prone to performance degradation due to concept drift and to catastrophic forgetting.To address this issue,we propose a realtime CVDs prediction approach,referred to as ADWIN-GFR that combines Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)layers,for spatial feature extraction,with Gated Recurrent Units(GRU),for temporal modeling,alongside adaptive drift detection and mitigation mechanisms.The proposed approach integratesAdaptiveWindowing(ADWIN)for realtime concept drift detection,a fine-tuning strategy based on Generative Features Replay(GFR)to preserve previously acquired knowledge,and a dynamic replay buffer ensuring variance,diversity,and data distribution coverage.Extensive experiments conducted on the MIT-BIH arrhythmia dataset demonstrate that ADWIN-GFR outperforms standard fine-tuning techniques,achieving an average post-drift accuracy of 95.4%,amacro F1-score of 93.9%,and a remarkably low forgetting score of 0.9%.It also exhibits an average drift detection delay of 12 steps and achieves an adaptation gain of 17.2%.These findings underscore the potential of ADWIN-GFR for deployment in real-world cardiac monitoring systems,including wearable ECG devices and hospital-based patient monitoring platforms.

文摘This paper proposes an algorithm that extracts features of back side of the vehicle and detects the front vehicle in real-time by local feature tracking of vehicle in the continuous images.The features in back side of the vehicle are vertical and horizontal edges,shadow and symmetry.By comparing local features using the fixed window size,the features in the continuous images are tracked.A robust and fast Haarlike mask is used for detecting vertical and horizontal edges,and shadow is extracted by histogram equalization,and the sliding window method is used to compare both side templates of the detected candidates for extracting symmetry.The features for tracking are vertical edges,and histogram is used to compare location of the peak and magnitude of the edges.The method using local feature tracking in the continuous images is more robust for detecting vehicle than the method using single image,and the proposed algorithm is evaluated by continuous images obtained on the expressway and downtown.And it can be performed on real-time through applying it to the embedded system.
文摘To detect the improper sitting posture of a person sitting on a chair,a posture detection system using machine learning classification has been proposed in this work.The addressed problem correlates to the third Sustainable Development Goal(SDG),ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all ages,as specified by the World Health Organization(WHO).An improper sitting position can be fatal if one sits for a long time in the wrong position,and it can be dangerous for ulcers and lower spine discomfort.This novel study includes a practical implementation of a cushion consisting of a grid of 3×3 force-sensitive resistors(FSR)embedded to read the pressure of the person sitting on it.Additionally,the Body Mass Index(BMI)has been included to increase the resilience of the system across individual physical variances and to identify the incorrect postures(backward,front,left,and right-leaning)based on the five machine learning algorithms:ensemble boosted trees,ensemble bagged trees,ensemble subspace K-Nearest Neighbors(KNN),ensemble subspace discriminant,and ensemble RUSBoosted trees.The proposed arrangement is novel as existing works have only provided simulations without practical implementation,whereas we have implemented the proposed design in Simulink.The results validate the proposed sensor placements,and the machine learning(ML)model reaches a maximum accuracy of 99.99%,which considerably outperforms the existing works.The proposed concept is valuable as it makes it easier for people in workplaces or even at individual household levels to work for long periods without suffering from severe harmful effects from poor posture.

文摘Real-time Fraud Detection has always been a challenging task, especially in financial, insurance, and telecom industries. There are mainly three methods, which are rule set, outlier detection and classification to solve the problem. But those methods have some drawbacks respectively. To overcome these limitations, we propose a new algorithm UAF (Usage Amount Forecast).Firstly, Manhattan distance is used to measure the similarity between fraudulent instances and normal ones. Secondly, UAF gives real-time score which detects the fraud early and reduces as much economic loss as possible. Experiments on various real-world datasets demonstrate the high potential of UAF for processing real-time data and predicting fraudulent users.
