<p>The task of network security is to keep services available at all times by dealing with hacker attacks. One of the mechanisms obtainable is the Intrusion Detection System (IDS) which is used to sense and classify any abnormal actions. Therefore, the IDS system should always be up-to-date with the latest hacker attack signatures to keep services confidential, safe, and available. IDS speed is a very important issue in addition to learning new attacks. A modified selection strategy based on features was proposed in this paper one of the important swarm intelligent algorithms is the Meerkat Clan Algorithm (MCA). Meerkat Clan Algorithm has good diversity solutions through its neighboring generation conduct and it was used to solve several problems. The proposed strategy benefitted from mutual information to increase the performance and decrease the consumed time. Two datasets (NSL-KDD & UNSW-NB15) for Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS) have been used to verify the performance of the proposed algorithm. The experimental findings indicate that, compared to other approaches, the proposed algorithm produces good results in a minimum of time.</p><p><strong> </strong></p>
This paper presents a proposed approach for assessing video quality without reference and makes use of a data hiding technique to embed a fragile mark into video frame by using Discreet Cosine Transform (DCT) and quantization. The fragile mark is random watermark generator using stream cipher based on Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) and using Geffe generator to give a balanced distribution of zeros and ones in its output. The frame format consists of three color components, Red (R), Green (G) and Blue (B) for individual pixel, the watermark data should be hidden in Red (R) color channel to ensure the best recovery of the watermark. At the receiver, the mark is extracted from decoded video without any original reference video sequences. After extracted watermark, quality measure of the video is obtained by computing the degradation of the extracted mark. The results of this experiment indicate identical values of the Normalized Cross-correlation (NC) for three categories of real quality that have been proposed (good, low, bad) with the perceived quality. The experiment shows the error of the proposed system is 7% while correct ratio is 93% , the salt and pepper noise gives good results without errors while the Dust& Scratches noise gives highest error in the system. Results shown that the proposed algorithm provides a good estimation for the video quality when adding noise.
In recent years, social media has been increasing widely and obviously as a media for users expressing their emotions and feelings through thousands of posts and comments related to tourism companies. As a consequence, it became difficult for tourists to read all the comments to determine whether these opinions are positive or negative to assess the success of a tourism company. In this paper, a modest model is proposed to assess e-tourism companies using Iraqi dialect reviews collected from Facebook. The reviews are analyzed using text mining techniques for sentiment classification. The generated sentiment words are classified into positive, negative and neutral comments by utilizing Rough Set Theory, Naïve Bayes and K-Nearest Neighbor methods. After experimental results, it was determined that out of 71 tested Iraqi tourism companies, 28% from these companies have very good assessment, 26% from these companies have good assessment, 31% from these companies have medium assessment, 4% from these companies have acceptance assessment and 11% from these companies have bad assessment. These results helped the companies to improve their work and programs responding sufficiently and quickly to customer demands.
The Internet of Things (IoT) has been influential in predicting major diseases in current practice. The deep learning (DL) technique is vital in monitoring and controlling the functioning of the healthcare system and ensuring an effective decision-making process. In this study, we aimed to develop a framework implementing the IoT and DL to identify lung cancer. The accurate and efficient prediction of disease is a challenging task. The proposed model deploys a DL process with a multi-layered non-local Bayes (NL Bayes) model to manage the process of early diagnosis. The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) could be useful in determining factors that could enable the effective sorting of quality values through the use of sensors and image processing techniques. We studied the proposed model by analyzing its results with regard to specific attributes such as accuracy, quality, and system process efficiency. In this study, we aimed to overcome problems in the existing process through the practical results of a computational comparison process. The proposed model provided a low error rate (2%, 5%) and an increase in the number of instance values. The experimental results led us to conclude that the proposed model can make predictions based on images with high sensitivity and better precision values compared to other specific results. The proposed model achieved the expected accuracy (81%, 95%), the expected specificity (80%, 98%), and the expected sensitivity (80%, 99%). This model is adequate for real-time health monitoring systems in the prediction of lung cancer and can enable effective decision-making with the use of DL techniques.
Honeywords are fake passwords that serve as an accompaniment to the real password, which is called a "sugarword." The honeyword system is an effective password cracking detection system designed to easily detect password cracking in order to improve the security of hashed passwords. For every user, the password file of the honeyword system will have one real hashed password accompanied by numerous fake hashed passwords. If an intruder steals the password file from the system and successfully cracks the passwords while attempting to log in to users' accounts, the honeyword system will detect this attempt through the honeychecker. A honeychecker is an auxiliary server that distinguishes the real password from the fake passwords and triggers an alarm if intruder signs in using a honeyword. Many honeyword generation approaches have been proposed by previous research, all with limitations to their honeyword generation processes, limited success in providing all required honeyword features, and susceptibility to many honeyword issues. This work will present a novel honeyword generation method that uses a proposed discrete salp swarm algorithm. The salp swarm algorithm (SSA) is a bio-inspired metaheuristic optimization algorithm that imitates the swarming behavior of salps in their natural environment. SSA has been used to solve a variety of optimization problems. The presented honeyword generation method will improve the generation process, improve honeyword features, and overcome the issues of previous techniques. This study will demonstrate numerous previous honeyword generating strategies, describe the proposed methodology, examine the experimental results, and compare the new honeyword production method to those proposed in previous research.
Sentiment analysis is an emerging research field that can be integrated with other domains, including data mining, natural language processing and machine learning. In political articles, it is difficult to understand and summarise the state or overall views due to the diversity and size of social media information. A number of studies were conducted in the area of sentiment analysis, especially using English texts, while Arabic language received less attention in the literature. In this study, we propose a detection model for political orientation articles in the Arabic language. We introduce the key assumptions of the model, present and discuss the obtained results, and highlight the issues that still need to be explored to further our understanding of subjective sentences. The main purpose of applying this new approach based on Rough Set (RS) theory is to increase the accuracy of the models in recognizing the orientation of the articles. We present extensive simulation results, which demonstrate the superiority of the proposed model over other algorithms. It is shown that the performance of the proposed approach significantly improves by adding discriminating features. To summarize, the proposed approach demonstrates an accuracy of 85.483%, when evaluating the orientation of political Arabic datasets, compared to 72.58% and 64.516% for the Support Vector Machines and Naïve Bayes methods, respectively.
