    Improving Smart Home Security via MQTT: Maximizing Data Privacy and Device Authentication Using Elliptic Curve Cryptography

    Zainatul Yushaniza Mohamed Yusoff1, Mohamad Khairi Ishak2,*, Lukman A. B. Rahim3, Mohd Shahrimie Mohd Asaari1
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.056741
    Abstract The rapid adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies has introduced significant security challenges across the physical, network, and application layers, particularly with the widespread use of the Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol, which, while efficient in bandwidth consumption, lacks inherent security features, making it vulnerable to various cyber threats. This research addresses these challenges by presenting a secure, lightweight communication proxy that enhances the scalability and security of MQTT-based Internet of Things (IoT) networks. The proposed solution builds upon the Dang-Scheme, a mutual authentication protocol designed explicitly for resource-constrained environments and enhances it… More >

    Performance Analysis of Machine Learning-Based Intrusion Detection with Hybrid Feature Selection

    Mohammad Al-Omari1, Qasem Abu Al-Haija2,*
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.056257
    Abstract More businesses are deploying powerful Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) to secure their data and physical assets. Improved cyber-attack detection and prevention in these systems requires machine learning (ML) approaches. This paper examines a cyber-attack prediction system combining feature selection (FS) and ML. Our technique’s foundation was based on Correlation Analysis (CA), Mutual Information (MI), and recursive feature reduction with cross-validation. To optimize the IDS performance, the security features must be carefully selected from multiple-dimensional datasets, and our hybrid FS technique must be extended to validate our methodology using the improved UNSW-NB 15 and TON_IoT datasets.

    Software Cost Estimation Using Social Group Optimization

    Sagiraju Srinadhraju*, Samaresh Mishra, Suresh Chandra Satapathy
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.055612
    (This article belongs to the Special Issue: Emerging Artificial Intelligence Techniques for Software Engineering Process Optimization)
    Abstract This paper introduces the integration of the Social Group Optimization (SGO) algorithm to enhance the accuracy of software cost estimation using the Constructive Cost Model (COCOMO). COCOMO’s fixed coefficients often limit its adaptability, as they don’t account for variations across organizations. By fine-tuning these parameters with SGO, we aim to improve estimation accuracy. We train and validate our SGO-enhanced model using historical project data, evaluating its performance with metrics like the mean magnitude of relative error (MMRE) and Manhattan distance (MD). Experimental results show that SGO optimization significantly improves the predictive accuracy of software cost More >

    Evaluating Public Sentiments during Uttarakhand Flood: An Artificial Intelligence Techniques

    Stephen Afrifa1,2,*, Vijayakumar Varadarajan3,4,5,*, Peter Appiahene2, Tao Zhang1, Richmond Afrifa6
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.055084
    Abstract Users of social networks can readily express their thoughts on websites like Twitter (now X), Facebook, and Instagram. The volume of textual data flowing from users has greatly increased with the advent of social media in comparison to traditional media. For instance, using natural language processing (NLP) methods, social media can be leveraged to obtain crucial information on the present situation during disasters. In this work, tweets on the Uttarakhand flash flood are analyzed using a hybrid NLP model. This investigation employed sentiment analysis (SA) to determine the people’s expressed negative attitudes regarding the disaster. More >

    A Systematic Review of Automated Classification for Simple and Complex Query SQL on NoSQL Database

    Nurhadi, Rabiah Abdul Kadir*, Ely Salwana Mat Surin, Mahidur R. Sarker*
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.051851
    Abstract A data lake (DL), abbreviated as DL, denotes a vast reservoir or repository of data. It accumulates substantial volumes of data and employs advanced analytics to correlate data from diverse origins containing various forms of semi-structured, structured, and unstructured information. These systems use a flat architecture and run different types of data analytics. NoSQL databases are nontabular and store data in a different manner than the relational table. NoSQL databases come in various forms, including key-value pairs, documents, wide columns, and graphs, each based on its data model. They offer simpler scalability and generally outperform… More >

    Intelligent PID Control Method for Quadrotor UAV with Serial Humanoid Intelligence

    Linlin Zhang, Lvzhao Bai, Jianshu Liang, Zhiying Qin*, Yuejing Zhao
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.054237
    Abstract Quadrotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are widely used in inspection, agriculture, express delivery, and other fields owing to their low cost and high flexibility. However, the current UAV control system has shortcomings such as poor control accuracy and weak anti-interference ability to a certain extent. To address the control problem of a four-rotor UAV, we propose a method to enhance the controller’s accuracy by considering underactuated dynamics, nonlinearities, and external disturbances. A mathematical model is constructed based on the flight principles of the quadrotor UAV. We develop a control algorithm that combines humanoid intelligence with… More >

    An Expert System to Detect Political Arabic Articles Orientation Using CatBoost Classifier Boosted by Multi-Level Features

    Saad M. Darwish1,*, Abdul Rahman M. Sabri2, Dhafar Hamed Abd2, Adel A. Elzoghabi1
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.054615
    Abstract The number of blogs and other forms of opinionated online content has increased dramatically in recent years. Many fields, including academia and national security, place an emphasis on automated political article orientation detection. Political articles (especially in the Arab world) are different from other articles due to their subjectivity, in which the author’s beliefs and political affiliation might have a significant influence on a political article. With categories representing the main political ideologies, this problem may be thought of as a subset of the text categorization (classification). In general, the performance of machine learning models… More >

    Performance-Oriented Layout Synthesis for Quantum Computing

    Chi-Chou Kao1,*, Hung-Yi Lin2
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, DOI:10.32604/csse.2024.055073
    Abstract Layout synthesis in quantum computing is crucial due to the physical constraints of quantum devices where quantum bits (qubits) can only interact effectively with their nearest neighbors. This constraint severely impacts the design and efficiency of quantum algorithms, as arranging qubits optimally can significantly reduce circuit depth and improve computational performance. To tackle the layout synthesis challenge, we propose an algorithm based on integer linear programming (ILP). ILP is well-suited for this problem as it can formulate the optimization objective of minimizing circuit depth while adhering to the nearest neighbor interaction constraint. The algorithm aims… More >
