Abstract Neural networks play a significant role in the field of image classification. When an input image is modified by adversarial attacks, the changes are imperceptible to the human eye, but it still leads to misclassification of the images. Researchers have demonstrated these attacks to make production self-driving cars misclassify Stop Road signs as 45 Miles Per Hour (MPH) road signs and a turtle being misclassified as AK47. Three primary types of defense approaches exist which can safeguard against such attacks i.e., Gradient Masking, Robust Optimization, and Adversarial Example Detection. Very few approaches use Generative Adversarial Networks (GAN) for Defense against… More >

Abstract As more business transactions and information services have been implemented via communication networks, both personal and organization assets encounter a higher risk of attacks. To safeguard these, a perimeter defence like NIDS (network-based intrusion detection system) can be effective for known intrusions. There has been a great deal of attention within the joint community of security and data science to improve machine-learning based NIDS such that it becomes more accurate for adversarial attacks, where obfuscation techniques are applied to disguise patterns of intrusive traffics. The current research focuses on non-payload connections at the TCP (transmission control protocol) stack level that… More >

Abstract Deep learning-based systems have succeeded in many computer vision tasks. However, it is found that the latest study indicates that these systems are in danger in the presence of adversarial attacks. These attacks can quickly spoil deep learning models, e.g., different convolutional neural networks (CNNs), used in various computer vision tasks from image classification to object detection. The adversarial examples are carefully designed by injecting a slight perturbation into the clean images. The proposed CRU-Net defense model is inspired by state-of-the-art defense mechanisms such as MagNet defense, Generative Adversarial Network Defense, Deep Regret Analytic Generative Adversarial Networks Defense, Deep Denoising… More >

Abstract In recent years, machine learning has become more and more popular, especially the continuous development of deep learning technology, which has brought great revolutions to many fields. In tasks such as image classification, natural language processing, information hiding, multimedia synthesis, and so on, the performance of deep learning has far exceeded the traditional algorithms. However, researchers found that although deep learning can train an accurate model through a large amount of data to complete various tasks, the model is vulnerable to the example which is modified artificially. This technology is called adversarial attacks, while the examples are called adversarial examples.… More >

Abstract Due to rapid development in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Deep Learning (DL), it is difficult to maintain the security and robustness of these techniques and algorithms due to emergence of novel term adversary sampling. Such technique is sensitive to these models. Thus, fake samples cause AI and DL model to produce diverse results. Adversarial attacks that successfully implemented in real world scenarios highlight their applicability even further. In this regard, minor modifications of input images cause “Adversarial Attacks” that altered the performance of competing attacks dramatically. Recently, such attacks and defensive strategies are gaining lot of attention by the machine… More >

Abstract Intrusion detection system plays an important role in defending networks from security breaches. End-to-end machine learning-based intrusion detection systems are being used to achieve high detection accuracy. However, in case of adversarial attacks, that cause misclassification by introducing imperceptible perturbation on input samples, performance of machine learning-based intrusion detection systems is greatly affected. Though such problems have widely been discussed in image processing domain, very few studies have investigated network intrusion detection systems and proposed corresponding defence. In this paper, we attempt to fill this gap by using adversarial attacks on standard intrusion detection datasets and then using adversarial samples… More >

Abstract Deep Learning is one of the most popular computer science techniques, with applications in natural language processing, image processing, pattern identification, and various other fields. Despite the success of these deep learning algorithms in multiple scenarios, such as spam detection, malware detection, object detection and tracking, face recognition, and automatic driving, these algorithms and their associated training data are rather vulnerable to numerous security threats. These threats ultimately result in significant performance degradation. Moreover, the supervised based learning models are affected by manipulated data known as adversarial examples, which are images with a particular level of noise that is invisible… More >

Abstract The development of Vehicular Ad-hoc Network (VANET) technology is helping Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) services to become a reality. Vehicles can use VANETs to communicate safety messages on the road (while driving) and can inform their location and share road condition information in real-time. However, intentional and unintentional (e.g., packet/frame collision) wireless signal jamming can occur, which will degrade the quality of communication over the channel, preventing the reception of safety messages, and thereby posing a safety hazard to the vehicle's passengers. In this paper, VANET jamming detection applying Support Vector Machine (SVM) machine learning technology is used to classify… More >

Abstract These days, deep learning and computer vision are much-growing fields in this modern world of information technology. Deep learning algorithms and computer vision have achieved great success in different applications like image classification, speech recognition, self-driving vehicles, disease diagnostics, and many more. Despite success in various applications, it is found that these learning algorithms face severe threats due to adversarial attacks. Adversarial examples are inputs like images in the computer vision field, which are intentionally slightly changed or perturbed. These changes are humanly imperceptible. But are misclassified by a model with high probability and severely affects the performance or prediction.… More >

Abstract The current development of artificial intelligence is largely based on deep Neural Networks (DNNs). Especially in the computer vision field, DNNs now occur in everything from autonomous vehicles to safety control systems. Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is based on DNNs mostly used in different computer vision applications, especially for image classification and object detection. The CNN model takes the photos as input and, after training, assigns it a suitable class after setting traceable parameters like weights and biases. CNN is derived from Human Brain's Part Visual Cortex and sometimes performs even better than Haman visual system. However, recent research shows… More >
