Recently machine learning based intrusion detection system developments have been subjected to extensive researches because they can detect both misuse detection and anomaly detection. In this paper, we propose an AdaBoost based algorithm for network intrusion detection system with single weak classifier. In this algorithm, the classifiers such as Bayes Net, Naïve Bayes and Decision tree are used as weak classifiers. KDDCup99 dataset is used in these experiments to demonstrate that boosting algorithm can greatly improve the classification accuracy of weak classification algorithms. Our approach achieves higher detection rate with low false alarm rates and is scalable for large datasets, resulting in an effective intrusion detection system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
