Abstract The increasing use of cloud-based devices has reached the critical point of cybersecurity and unwanted network traffic. Cloud environments pose significant challenges in maintaining privacy and security. Global approaches, such as IDS, have been developed to tackle these issues. However, most conventional Intrusion Detection System (IDS) models struggle with unseen cyberattacks and complex high-dimensional data. In fact, this paper introduces the idea of a novel distributed explainable and heterogeneous transformer-based intrusion detection system, named INTRUMER, which offers balanced accuracy, reliability, and security in cloud settings by multiple modules working together within it. The traffic captured… More >

Abstract Breast cancer stands as one of the world’s most perilous and formidable diseases, having recently surpassed lung cancer as the most prevalent cancer type. This disease arises when cells in the breast undergo unregulated proliferation, resulting in the formation of a tumor that has the capacity to invade surrounding tissues. It is not confined to a specific gender; both men and women can be diagnosed with breast cancer, although it is more frequently observed in women. Early detection is pivotal in mitigating its mortality rate. The key to curbing its mortality lies in early detection.… More >

Abstract The use of Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) models becomes increasingly important for making decisions in smart healthcare environments. It is to make sure that decisions are based on trustworthy algorithms and that healthcare workers understand the decisions made by these algorithms. These models can potentially enhance interpretability and explainability in decision-making processes that rely on artificial intelligence. Nevertheless, the intricate nature of the healthcare field necessitates the utilization of sophisticated models to classify cancer images. This research presents an advanced investigation of XAI models to classify cancer images. It describes the different levels of explainability… More >

Abstract One of the most widely used smartphone operating systems, Android, is vulnerable to cutting-edge malware that employs sophisticated logic. Such malware attacks could lead to the execution of unauthorized acts on the victims’ devices, stealing personal information and causing hardware damage. In previous studies, machine learning (ML) has shown its efficacy in detecting malware events and classifying their types. However, attackers are continuously developing more sophisticated methods to bypass detection. Therefore, up-to-date datasets must be utilized to implement proactive models for detecting malware events in Android mobile devices. Therefore, this study employed ML algorithms to… More >

Abstract Cybersecurity increasingly relies on machine learning (ML) models to respond to and detect attacks. However, the rapidly changing data environment makes model life-cycle management after deployment essential. Real-time detection of drift signals from various threats is fundamental for effectively managing deployed models. However, detecting drift in unsupervised environments can be challenging. This study introduces a novel approach leveraging Shapley additive explanations (SHAP), a widely recognized explainability technique in ML, to address drift detection in unsupervised settings. The proposed method incorporates a range of plots and statistical techniques to enhance drift detection reliability and introduces a… More >

Abstract Intrusion detection involves identifying unauthorized network activity and recognizing whether the data constitute an abnormal network transmission. Recent research has focused on using semi-supervised learning mechanisms to identify abnormal network traffic to deal with labeled and unlabeled data in the industry. However, real-time training and classifying network traffic pose challenges, as they can lead to the degradation of the overall dataset and difficulties preventing attacks. Additionally, existing semi-supervised learning research might need to analyze the experimental results comprehensively. This paper proposes XA-GANomaly, a novel technique for explainable adaptive semi-supervised learning using GANomaly, an image anomalous… More >

Abstract AI-related research is conducted in various ways, but the reliability of AI prediction results is currently insufficient, so expert decisions are indispensable for tasks that require essential decision-making. XAI (eXplainable AI) is studied to improve the reliability of AI. However, each XAI methodology shows different results in the same data set and exact model. This means that XAI results must be given meaning, and a lot of noise value emerges. This paper proposes the HFD (Hybrid Feature Dropout)-based XAI and evaluation methodology. The proposed XAI methodology can mitigate shortcomings, such as incorrect feature weights and… More >

Abstract In the Internet of Things (IoT) based system, the multi-level client’s requirements can be fulfilled by incorporating communication technologies with distributed homogeneous networks called ubiquitous computing systems (UCS). The UCS necessitates heterogeneity, management level, and data transmission for distributed users. Simultaneously, security remains a major issue in the IoT-driven UCS. Besides, energy-limited IoT devices need an effective clustering strategy for optimal energy utilization. The recent developments of explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) concepts can be employed to effectively design intrusion detection systems (IDS) for accomplishing security in UCS.
