Abstract Signature verification is regarded as the most beneficial behavioral characteristic-based biometric feature in security and fraud protection. It is also a popular biometric authentication technology in forensic and commercial transactions due to its various advantages, including noninvasiveness, user-friendliness, and social and legal acceptability. According to the literature, extensive research has been conducted on signature verification systems in a variety of languages, including English, Hindi, Bangla, and Chinese. However, the Arabic Offline Signature Verification (OSV) system is still a challenging issue that has not been investigated as much by researchers due to the Arabic script being distinguished by changing letter shapes,… More >

Abstract In the era of Big data, learning discriminant feature representation from network traffic is identified has as an invariably essential task for improving the detection ability of an intrusion detection system (IDS). Owing to the lack of accurately labeled network traffic data, many unsupervised feature representation learning models have been proposed with state-of-the-art performance. Yet, these models fail to consider the classification error while learning the feature representation. Intuitively, the learnt feature representation may degrade the performance of the classification task. For the first time in the field of intrusion detection, this paper proposes an unsupervised IDS model leveraging the… More >
