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 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… 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… 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 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… More >

Abstract Detecting malicious Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) is crucially important to prevent attackers from committing cybercrimes. Recent researches have investigated the role of machine learning (ML) models to detect malicious URLs. By using ML algorithms, first, the features of URLs are extracted, and then different ML models are trained. The limitation of this approach is that it requires manual feature engineering and it does not consider the sequential patterns in the URL. Therefore, deep learning (DL) models are used to solve these issues since they are able to perform featureless detection. Furthermore, DL models give better… More >

Abstract The license plate recognition system (LPRS) has been widely adopted in daily life due to its efficiency and high accuracy. Deep neural networks are commonly used in the LPRS to improve the recognition accuracy. However, researchers have found that deep neural networks have their own security problems that may lead to unexpected results. Specifically, they can be easily attacked by the adversarial examples that are generated by adding small perturbations to the original images, resulting in incorrect license plate recognition. There are some classic methods to generate adversarial examples, but they cannot be adopted on More >

Abstract Recommender systems are very useful for people to explore what they really need. Academic papers are important achievements for researchers and they often have a great deal of choice to submit their papers. In order to improve the efficiency of selecting the most suitable journals for publishing their works, journal recommender systems (JRS) can automatically provide a small number of candidate journals based on key information such as the title and the abstract. However, users or journal owners may attack the system for their own purposes. In this paper, we discuss about the adversarial attacks More >
