Abstract This study describes improving network security by implementing and assessing an intrusion detection system (IDS) based on deep neural networks (DNNs). The paper investigates contemporary technical ways for enhancing intrusion detection performance, given the vital relevance of safeguarding computer networks against harmful activity. The DNN-based IDS is trained and validated by the model using the NSL-KDD dataset, a popular benchmark for IDS research. The model performs well in both the training and validation stages, with 91.30% training accuracy and 94.38% validation accuracy. Thus, the model shows good learning and generalization capabilities with minor losses of… More >

Abstract Phishing, an Internet fraud where individuals are deceived into revealing critical personal and account information, poses a significant risk to both consumers and web-based institutions. Data indicates a persistent rise in phishing attacks. Moreover, these fraudulent schemes are progressively becoming more intricate, thereby rendering them more challenging to identify. Hence, it is imperative to utilize sophisticated algorithms to address this issue. Machine learning is a highly effective approach for identifying and uncovering these harmful behaviors. Machine learning (ML) approaches can identify common characteristics in most phishing assaults. In this paper, we propose an ensemble approach… More >

Abstract The prompt spread of COVID-19 has emphasized the necessity for effective and precise diagnostic tools. In this article, a hybrid approach in terms of datasets as well as the methodology by utilizing a previously unexplored dataset obtained from a private hospital for detecting COVID-19, pneumonia, and normal conditions in chest X-ray images (CXIs) is proposed coupled with Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI). Our study leverages less preprocessing with pre-trained cutting-edge models like InceptionV3, VGG16, and VGG19 that excel in the task of feature extraction. The methodology is further enhanced by the inclusion of the t-SNE (t-Distributed… More >

Abstract Virtual machine (VM) consolidation aims to run VMs on the least number of physical machines (PMs). The optimal consolidation significantly reduces energy consumption (EC), quality of service (QoS) in applications, and resource utilization. This paper proposes a prediction-based multi-objective VM consolidation approach to search for the best mapping between VMs and PMs with good timeliness and practical value. We use a hybrid model based on Auto-Regressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) and Support Vector Regression (SVR) (HPAS) as a prediction model and consolidate VMs to PMs based on prediction results by HPAS, aiming at minimizing the More >

Abstract The growing global requirement for food and the need for sustainable farming in an era of a changing climate and scarce resources have inspired substantial crop yield prediction research. Deep learning (DL) and machine learning (ML) models effectively deal with such challenges. This research paper comprehensively analyses recent advancements in crop yield prediction from January 2016 to March 2024. In addition, it analyses the effectiveness of various input parameters considered in crop yield prediction models. We conducted an in-depth search and gathered studies that employed crop modeling and AI-based methods to predict crop yield. The… More >

Abstract Multi-modal histological image registration tasks pose significant challenges due to tissue staining operations causing partial loss and folding of tissue. Convolutional neural network (CNN) and generative adversarial network (GAN) are pivotal in medical image registration. However, existing methods often struggle with severe interference and deformation, as seen in histological images of conditions like Cushing’s disease. We argue that the failure of current approaches lies in underutilizing the feature extraction capability of the discriminator in GAN. In this study, we propose a novel multi-modal registration approach GAN-DIRNet based on GAN for deformable histological image registration. To… More >

Abstract To reduce the negative effects that conventional modes of transportation have on the environment, researchers are working to increase the use of electric vehicles. The demand for environmentally friendly transportation may be hampered by obstacles such as a restricted range and extended rates of recharge. The establishment of urban charging infrastructure that includes both fast and ultra-fast terminals is essential to address this issue. Nevertheless, the powering of these terminals presents challenges because of the high energy requirements, which may influence the quality of service. Modelling the maximum hourly capacity of each station based on… More >

Abstract With the rapid growth of internet usage, a new situation has been created that enables practicing bullying. Cyberbullying has increased over the past decade, and it has the same adverse effects as face-to-face bullying, like anger, sadness, anxiety, and fear. With the anonymity people get on the internet, they tend to be more aggressive and express their emotions freely without considering the effects, which can be a reason for the increase in cyberbullying and it is the main motive behind the current study. This study presents a thorough background of cyberbullying and the techniques used… More >
