Abstract Cognitive Radio (CR) is a competent technique devised to smart sense its surroundings and address the spectrum scarcity issues in wireless communication networks. The Primary User Emulation Attack (PUEA) is one of the most serious security threats affecting the performance of CR networks. In this paper, machine learning (ML) principles have been applied to detect PUEA with superior decision-making ability. To distinguish the attacking nodes, Reinforced Learning (RL) and Extreme Machine Learning (EML-RL) algorithms are proposed to be based on Reinforced Learning (EML). Various dynamic parameters like estimation error, attack detection efficiency, attack estimation rate, and learning rate have been… More >

Abstract Viral diseases transmitted by mosquitoes are emerging public health problems across the globe. Dengue is considered to be the most significant mosquito-oriented disease. Conspicuously, the present study provides an effective architecture for Dengue Virus Infection surveillance. The proposed system involves a 4-level architecture for the prediction and prevention of dengue infection outspread. The architectural levels including Dengue Information Acquisition level, Dengue Information Classification level, Dengue-Mining and Extraction level, and Dengue-Prediction and Decision Modeling level enable an individual to periodically monitor his/her probabilistic dengue fever measure. The prediction process is carried out so that proactive measures are taken beforehand. For predictive… More >

Abstract Preserving privacy of the user is a very critical requirement to be met with all the international laws like GDPR, California privacy protection act and many other bills in place. On the other hand, Online Social Networks (OSN) has a wide spread recognition among the users, as a means of virtual communication. OSN may also acts as an identity provider for both internal and external applications. While it provides a simplified identification and authentication function to users across multiple applications, it also opens the users to a new spectrum of privacy threats. The privacy breaches costs to the users as… More >

Abstract The scope of this research is to design and fuse the sensors used in the self-balancing vehicle through Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference systems (ANFIS) algorithm to optimize the output. The self-balancing vehicle is a wheeled inverted pendulum, which is extremely complex, nonlinear and unstable. Homogeneous and Heterogeneous sensors are involved in this sensor fusion research to identify the best feasible value among them. The data fusion algorithm present inside the controller of the self-balancing vehicle makes the inputs of the homogeneous sensors and heterogeneous sensors separately for ameliorate surrounding perception. Simulation is performed by modeling the sensors in Simulink. The outcomes… More >

Abstract Nowadays, machine learning (ML) algorithms cannot succeed without the availability of an enormous amount of training data. The data could contain sensitive information, which needs to be protected. Membership inference attacks attempt to find out whether a target data point is used to train a certain ML model, which results in security and privacy implications. The leakage of membership information can vary from one machine-learning algorithm to another. In this paper, we conduct an empirical study to explore the performance of membership inference attacks against three different machine learning algorithms, namely, K-nearest neighbors, random forest, support vector machine, and logistic… More >

Abstract The most common alarming and dangerous disease in the world today is the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The coronavirus is perceived as a group of coronaviruses which causes mild to severe respiratory diseases among human beings. The infection is spread by aerosols emitted from infected individuals during talking, sneezing, and coughing. Furthermore, infection can occur by touching a contaminated surface followed by transfer of the viral load to the face. Transmission may occur through aerosols that stay suspended in the air for extended periods of time in enclosed spaces. To stop the spread of the pandemic, it is crucial to… More >

Abstract This paper is focused on the state estimation problem for nonlinear systems with unknown statistics of measurement noise. Based on the cubature Kalman filter, we propose a new nonlinear filtering algorithm that employs a skew t distribution to characterize the asymmetry of the measurement noise. The system states and the statistics of skew t noise distribution, including the shape matrix, the scale matrix, and the degree of freedom (DOF) are estimated jointly by employing variational Bayesian (VB) inference. The proposed method is validated in a target tracking example. Results of the simulation indicate that the proposed nonlinear filter can perform… More >

Abstract

Traffic related accidents and route congestions remain to dwell significant issues in the globe. To overcome this, VANET was proposed to enhance the traffic management. However, there are several drawbacks in VANET such as collision of vehicles, data transmission in high probability of network fragmentation and data congestion. To overcome these issues, the Enhanced Pigeon Inspired Optimization (EPIO) and the Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) based methods have been proposed. The Cluster Head (CH) has been selected optimally using the EPIO approach, and then the ANFIS has been used for updating and validating the CH and also for enhancing… More >

Abstract Efforts were exerted to enhance the live virtual machines (VMs) migration, including performance improvements of the live migration of services to the cloud. The VMs empower the cloud users to store relevant data and resources. However, the utilization of servers has increased significantly because of the virtualization of computer systems, leading to a rise in power consumption and storage requirements by data centers, and thereby the running costs. Data center migration technologies are used to reduce risk, minimize downtime, and streamline and accelerate the data center move process. Indeed, several parameters, such as non-network overheads and downtime adjustment, may impact… More >

Abstract One of the important geotechnical parameters required for designing of the civil engineering structure is the compressibility of the soil. In this study, the main purpose is to develop a novel hybrid Machine Learning (ML) model (ANFIS-DE), which used Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm to optimize the predictive capability of Adaptive-Network-based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), for estimating soil Compression coefficient (Cc) from other geotechnical parameters namely Water Content, Void Ratio, Specific Gravity, Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit, Clay content and Depth of Soil Samples. Validation of the predictive capability of the novel model was carried out using statistical indices: Root Mean Square… More >
