Existing network traffic anomaly detection still faces challenges: the inability to fully extract local and global features, as well as the lack of effective mechanisms to capture complex interactions between features;Additionally, when increasing the receptive field to obtain deeper feature representations, the reliance on increasing network depth leads to a significant increase in computational resource consumption, affecting the efficiency and performance of detection. Based on these issues, firstly, this paper proposes a network traffic anomaly detection model based on parallel dilated convolution and residual learning (Res-PDC). To better explore the interactive relationships between features, the traffic samples are converted into two-dimensional matrix. A module combining parallel dilated convolutions and residual learning (res-pdc) was designed to extract local and global features of traffic at different scales. By utilizing res-pdc modules with different dilation rates, we can effectively capture spatial features at different scales and explore feature dependencies spanning wider regions without increasing computational resources. Secondly, to focus and integrate the information in different feature subspaces, further enhance and extract the interactions among the features, multi-head attention is added to Res-PDC, resulting in the final model: multi-head attention enhanced parallel dilated convolution and residual learning (MHA-Res-PDC) for network traffic anomaly detection. Finally, comparisons with other machine learning and deep learning algorithms are conducted on the NSL-KDD and CIC-IDS-2018 datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method in this paper can effectively improve the detection performance.展开更多

文摘With the increasing emphasis on personal information protection,encryption through security protocols has emerged as a critical requirement in data transmission and reception processes.Nevertheless,IoT ecosystems comprise heterogeneous networks where outdated systems coexist with the latest devices,spanning a range of devices from non-encrypted ones to fully encrypted ones.Given the limited visibility into payloads in this context,this study investigates AI-based attack detection methods that leverage encrypted traffic metadata,eliminating the need for decryption and minimizing system performance degradation—especially in light of these heterogeneous devices.Using the UNSW-NB15 and CICIoT-2023 dataset,encrypted and unencrypted traffic were categorized according to security protocol,and AI-based intrusion detection experiments were conducted for each traffic type based on metadata.To mitigate the problem of class imbalance,eight different data sampling techniques were applied.The effectiveness of these sampling techniques was then comparatively analyzed using two ensemble models and three Deep Learning(DL)models from various perspectives.The experimental results confirmed that metadata-based attack detection is feasible using only encrypted traffic.In the UNSW-NB15 dataset,the f1-score of encrypted traffic was approximately 0.98,which is 4.3%higher than that of unencrypted traffic(approximately 0.94).In addition,analysis of the encrypted traffic in the CICIoT-2023 dataset using the same method showed a significantly lower f1-score of roughly 0.43,indicating that the quality of the dataset and the preprocessing approach have a substantial impact on detection performance.Furthermore,when data sampling techniques were applied to encrypted traffic,the recall in the UNSWNB15(Encrypted)dataset improved by up to 23.0%,and in the CICIoT-2023(Encrypted)dataset by 20.26%,showing a similar level of improvement.Notably,in CICIoT-2023,f1-score and Receiver Operation Characteristic-Area Under the Curve(ROC-AUC)increased by 59.0%and 55.94%,respectively.These results suggest that data sampling can have a positive effect even in encrypted environments.However,the extent of the improvement may vary depending on data quality,model architecture,and sampling strategy.

文摘Semantic segmentation for mixed scenes of aerial remote sensing and road traffic is one of the key technologies for visual perception of flying cars.The State-of-the-Art(SOTA)semantic segmentation methods have made remarkable achievements in both fine-grained segmentation and real-time performance.However,when faced with the huge differences in scale and semantic categories brought about by the mixed scenes of aerial remote sensing and road traffic,they still face great challenges and there is little related research.Addressing the above issue,this paper proposes a semantic segmentation model specifically for mixed datasets of aerial remote sensing and road traffic scenes.First,a novel decoding-recoding multi-scale feature iterative refinement structure is proposed,which utilizes the re-integration and continuous enhancement of multi-scale information to effectively deal with the huge scale differences between cross-domain scenes,while using a fully convolutional structure to ensure the lightweight and real-time requirements.Second,a welldesigned cross-window attention mechanism combined with a global information integration decoding block forms an enhanced global context perception,which can effectively capture the long-range dependencies and multi-scale global context information of different scenes,thereby achieving fine-grained semantic segmentation.The proposed method is tested on a large-scale mixed dataset of aerial remote sensing and road traffic scenes.The results confirm that it can effectively deal with the problem of large-scale differences in cross-domain scenes.Its segmentation accuracy surpasses that of the SOTA methods,which meets the real-time requirements.

文摘Traffic flow prediction constitutes a fundamental component of Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS),playing a pivotal role in mitigating congestion,enhancing route optimization,and improving the utilization efficiency of roadway infrastructure.However,existingmethods struggle in complex traffic scenarios due to static spatio-temporal embedding,restricted multi-scale temporal modeling,and weak representation of local spatial interactions.This study proposes Bi-STAT+,an enhanced bidirectional spatio-temporal attention framework to address existing limitations through three principal contributions:(1)an adaptive spatio-temporal embedding module that dynamically adjusts embeddings to capture complex traffic variations;(2)frequency-domain analysis in the temporal dimension for simultaneous high-frequency details and low-frequency trend extraction;and(3)an agent attention mechanism in the spatial dimension that enhances local feature extraction through dynamic weight allocation.Extensive experiments were performed on four distinct datasets,including two publicly benchmark datasets(PEMS04 and PEMS08)and two private datasets collected from Baotou and Chengdu,China.The results demonstrate that Bi-STAT+consistently outperforms existing methods in terms of MAE,RMSE,and MAPE,while maintaining strong robustness against missing data and noise.Furthermore,the results highlight that prediction accuracy improves significantly with higher sampling rates,providing crucial insights for optimizing real-world deployment scenarios.

文摘Traffic sign detection is an important part of autonomous driving,and its recognition accuracy and speed are directly related to road traffic safety.Although convolutional neural networks(CNNs)have made certain breakthroughs in this field,in the face of complex scenes,such as image blur and target occlusion,the traffic sign detection continues to exhibit limited accuracy,accompanied by false positives and missed detections.To address the above problems,a traffic sign detection algorithm,You Only Look Once-based Skip Dynamic Way(YOLO-SDW)based on You Only Look Once version 8 small(YOLOv8s),is proposed.Firstly,a Skip Connection Reconstruction(SCR)module is introduced to efficiently integrate fine-grained feature information and enhance the detection accuracy of the algorithm in complex scenes.Secondly,a C2f module based on Dynamic Snake Convolution(C2f-DySnake)is proposed to dynamically adjust the receptive field information,improve the algorithm’s feature extraction ability for blurred or occluded targets,and reduce the occurrence of false detections and missed detections.Finally,the Wise Powerful IoU v2(WPIoUv2)loss function is proposed to further improve the detection accuracy of the algorithm.Experimental results show that the average precision mAP@0.5 of YOLO-SDW on the TT100K dataset is 89.2%,and mAP@0.5:0.95 is 68.5%,which is 4%and 3.3%higher than the YOLOv8s baseline,respectively.YOLO-SDW ensures real-time performance while having higher accuracy.
文摘With the proliferation of Internet of Things(IoT)devices,securing these interconnected systems against cyberattacks has become a critical challenge.Traditional security paradigms often fail to cope with the scale and diversity of IoT network traffic.This paper presents a comparative benchmark of classic machine learning(ML)and state-of-the-art deep learning(DL)algorithms for IoT intrusion detection.Our methodology employs a twophased approach:a preliminary pilot study using a custom-generated dataset to establish baselines,followed by a comprehensive evaluation on the large-scale CICIoTDataset2023.We benchmarked algorithms including Random Forest,XGBoost,CNN,and StackedLSTM.The results indicate that while top-performingmodels frombothcategories achieve over 99%classification accuracy,this metric masks a crucial performance trade-off.We demonstrate that treebased ML ensembles exhibit superior precision(91%)in identifying benign traffic,making them effective at reducing false positives.Conversely,DL models demonstrate superior recall(96%),making them better suited for minimizing the interruption of legitimate traffic.We conclude that the selection of an optimal model is not merely a matter of maximizing accuracy but is a strategic choice dependent on the specific security priority either minimizing false alarms or ensuring service availability.Thiswork provides a practical framework for deploying context-aware security solutions in diverse IoT environments.

文摘With network attack technology continuing to develop,traditional anomaly traffic detection methods that rely on feature engineering are increasingly insufficient in efficiency and accuracy.Graph Neural Network(GNN),a promising Deep Learning(DL)approach,has proven to be highly effective in identifying intricate patterns in graph⁃structured data and has already found wide applications in the field of network security.In this paper,we propose a hybrid Graph Convolutional Network(GCN)⁃GraphSAGE model for Anomaly Traffic Detection,namely HGS⁃ATD,which aims to improve the accuracy of anomaly traffic detection by leveraging edge feature learning to better capture the relationships between network entities.We validate the HGS⁃ATD model on four publicly available datasets,including NF⁃UNSW⁃NB15⁃v2.The experimental results show that the enhanced hybrid model is 5.71%to 10.25%higher than the baseline model in terms of accuracy,and the F1⁃score is 5.53%to 11.63%higher than the baseline model,proving that the model can effectively distinguish normal traffic from attack traffic and accurately classify various types of attacks.
文摘Reliable traffic flow prediction is crucial for mitigating urban congestion.This paper proposes Attentionbased spatiotemporal Interactive Dynamic Graph Convolutional Network(AIDGCN),a novel architecture integrating Interactive Dynamic Graph Convolution Network(IDGCN)with Temporal Multi-Head Trend-Aware Attention.Its core innovation lies in IDGCN,which uniquely splits sequences into symmetric intervals for interactive feature sharing via dynamic graphs,and a novel attention mechanism incorporating convolutional operations to capture essential local traffic trends—addressing a critical gap in standard attention for continuous data.For 15-and 60-min forecasting on METR-LA,AIDGCN achieves MAEs of 0.75%and 0.39%,and RMSEs of 1.32%and 0.14%,respectively.In the 60-min long-term forecasting of the PEMS-BAY dataset,the AIDGCN out-performs the MRA-BGCN method by 6.28%,4.93%,and 7.17%in terms of MAE,RMSE,and MAPE,respectively.Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our pro-posed model over state-of-the-art methods.

文摘Accurate and real-time traffic-sign detection is a cornerstone of Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems(ADAS)and autonomous vehicles.However,existing one-stage detectors miss distant signs,and two-stage pipelines are impractical for embedded deployment.To address this issue,we present YOLO-SMM,a lightweight two-stage framework.This framework is designed to augment the YOLOv8 baseline with three targeted modules.(1)SlimNeck replaces PAN/FPN with a CSP-OSA/GSConv fusion block,reducing parameters and FLOPs without compromising multi-scale detail.(2)The MCA model introduces row-and column-aware weights to selectively amplify small sign regions in cluttered scenes.(3)MPDIoU augments CIoU loss with a corner-distance term,supplying stable gradients for sub-20-pixel boxes and tightening localization.An evaluation of YOLO-SMMon the German Traffic Sign Recognition Benchmark(GTSRB)revealed that it attained 96.3% mAP50 and 93.1% mAP50-90 at a rate of 90.6 frames per second(FPS).This represents an improvement of+1.0% over previous performance benchmarks.Them APat 64×64 resolution was found to be 50% of the maximum attainable value,with an FPS of+8.3 when compared to YOLOv8.This result indicates superior performance in terms of accuracy and speed compared to YOLOv7,YOLOv5,RetinaNet,EfficientDet,and Faster R-CNN,all of which were operated under equivalent conditions.

文摘Android smartphones have become an integral part of our daily lives,becoming targets for ransomware attacks.Such attacks encrypt user information and ask for payment to recover it.Conventional detection mechanisms,such as signature-based and heuristic techniques,often fail to detect new and polymorphic ransomware samples.To address this challenge,we employed various ensemble classifiers,such as Random Forest,Gradient Boosting,Bagging,and AutoML models.We aimed to showcase how AutoML can automate processes such as model selection,feature engineering,and hyperparameter optimization,to minimize manual effort while ensuring or enhancing performance compared to traditional approaches.We used this framework to test it with a publicly available dataset from the Kaggle repository,which contains features for Android ransomware network traffic.The dataset comprises 392,024 flow records,divided into eleven groups.There are ten classes for various ransomware types,including SVpeng,PornDroid,Koler,WannaLocker,and Lockerpin.There is also a class for regular traffic.We applied a three-step procedure to select themost relevant features:filter,wrapper,and embeddedmethods.The Bagging classifier was highly accurate,correctly getting 99.84%of the time.The FLAML AutoML framework was evenmore accurate,correctly getting 99.85%of the time.This is indicative of howwellAutoML performs in improving things with minimal human assistance.Our findings indicate that AutoML is an efficient,scalable,and flexible method to discover Android ransomware,and it will facilitate the development of next-generation intrusion detection systems.

文摘Long-term traffic flow prediction is a crucial component of intelligent transportation systems within intelligent networks,requiring predictive models that balance accuracy with low-latency and lightweight computation to optimize trafficmanagement and enhance urban mobility and sustainability.However,traditional predictivemodels struggle to capture long-term temporal dependencies and are computationally intensive,limiting their practicality in real-time.Moreover,many approaches overlook the periodic characteristics inherent in traffic data,further impacting performance.To address these challenges,we introduce ST-MambaGCN,a State-Space-Based Spatio-Temporal Graph Convolution Network.Unlike conventionalmodels,ST-MambaGCN replaces the temporal attention layer withMamba,a state-space model that efficiently captures long-term dependencies with near-linear computational complexity.The model combines Chebyshev polynomial-based graph convolutional networks(GCN)to explore spatial correlations.Additionally,we incorporate a multi-temporal feature capture mechanism,where the final integrated features are generated through the Hadamard product based on learnable parameters.This mechanism explicitly models shortterm,daily,and weekly traffic patterns to enhance the network’s awareness of traffic periodicity.Extensive experiments on the PeMS04 and PeMS08 datasets demonstrate that ST-MambaGCN significantly outperforms existing benchmarks,offering substantial improvements in both prediction accuracy and computational efficiency for long-term traffic flow prediction.

文摘Imputation of missing data has long been an important topic and an essential application for intelligent transportation systems(ITS)in the real world.As a state-of-the-art generative model,the diffusion model has proven highly successful in image generation,speech generation,time series modelling etc.and now opens a new avenue for traffic data imputation.In this paper,we propose a conditional diffusion model,called the implicit-explicit diffusion model,for traffic data imputation.This model exploits both the implicit and explicit feature of the data simultaneously.More specifically,we design two types of feature extraction modules,one to capture the implicit dependencies hidden in the raw data at multiple time scales and the other to obtain the long-term temporal dependencies of the time series.This approach not only inherits the advantages of the diffusion model for estimating missing data,but also takes into account the multiscale correlation inherent in traffic data.To illustrate the performance of the model,extensive experiments are conducted on three real-world time series datasets using different missing rates.The experimental results demonstrate that the model improves imputation accuracy and generalization capability.

文摘As an effective strategy to address urban traffic congestion,traffic flow prediction has gained attention from Federated-Learning(FL)researchers due FL’s ability to preserving data privacy.However,existing methods face challenges:some are too simplistic to capture complex traffic patterns effectively,and others are overly complex,leading to excessive communication overhead between cloud and edge devices.Moreover,the problem of single point failure limits their robustness and reliability in real-world applications.To tackle these challenges,this paper proposes a new method,CMBA-FL,a Communication-Mitigated and Blockchain-Assisted Federated Learning model.First,CMBA-FL improves the client model’s ability to capture temporal traffic patterns by employing the Encoder-Decoder framework for each edge device.Second,to reduce the communication overhead during federated learning,we introduce a verification method based on parameter update consistency,avoiding unnecessary parameter updates.Third,to mitigate the risk of a single point of failure,we integrate consensus mechanisms from blockchain technology.To validate the effectiveness of CMBA-FL,we assess its performance on two widely used traffic datasets.Our experimental results show that CMBA-FL reduces prediction error by 11.46%,significantly lowers communication overhead,and improves security.

文摘Abnormal network traffic, as a frequent security risk, requires a series of techniques to categorize and detect it. Existing network traffic anomaly detection still faces challenges: the inability to fully extract local and global features, as well as the lack of effective mechanisms to capture complex interactions between features;Additionally, when increasing the receptive field to obtain deeper feature representations, the reliance on increasing network depth leads to a significant increase in computational resource consumption, affecting the efficiency and performance of detection. Based on these issues, firstly, this paper proposes a network traffic anomaly detection model based on parallel dilated convolution and residual learning (Res-PDC). To better explore the interactive relationships between features, the traffic samples are converted into two-dimensional matrix. A module combining parallel dilated convolutions and residual learning (res-pdc) was designed to extract local and global features of traffic at different scales. By utilizing res-pdc modules with different dilation rates, we can effectively capture spatial features at different scales and explore feature dependencies spanning wider regions without increasing computational resources. Secondly, to focus and integrate the information in different feature subspaces, further enhance and extract the interactions among the features, multi-head attention is added to Res-PDC, resulting in the final model: multi-head attention enhanced parallel dilated convolution and residual learning (MHA-Res-PDC) for network traffic anomaly detection. Finally, comparisons with other machine learning and deep learning algorithms are conducted on the NSL-KDD and CIC-IDS-2018 datasets. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method in this paper can effectively improve the detection performance.
