In the face of the increasingly severe Botnet problem on the Internet,how to effectively detect Botnet traffic in realtime has become a critical problem.Although the existing deepQnetwork(DQN)algorithminDeep reinforcement learning can solve the problem of real-time updating,its prediction results are always higher than the actual results.In Botnet traffic detection,although it performs well in the training set,the accuracy rate of predicting traffic is as high as%;however,in the test set,its accuracy has declined,and it is impossible to adjust its prediction strategy on time based on new data samples.However,in the new dataset,its accuracy has declined significantly.Therefore,this paper proposes a Botnet traffic detection system based on double-layer DQN(DDQN).Two Q-values are designed to adjust the model in policy and action,respectively,to achieve real-time model updates and improve the universality and robustness of the model under different data sets.Experiments show that compared with the DQN model,when using DDQN,the Q-value is not too high,and the detectionmodel has improved the accuracy and precision of Botnet traffic.Moreover,when using Botnet data sets other than the test set,the accuracy and precision of theDDQNmodel are still higher than DQN.

Internet of Things(IoT)is vulnerable to data-tampering(DT)attacks.Due to resource limitations,many anomaly detection systems(ADSs)for IoT have high false positive rates when detecting DT attacks.This leads to the misreporting of normal data,which will impact the normal operation of IoT.To mitigate the impact caused by the high false positive rate of ADS,this paper proposes an ADS management scheme for clustered IoT.First,we model the data transmission and anomaly detection in clustered IoT.Then,the operation strategy of the clustered IoT is formulated as the running probabilities of all ADSs deployed on every IoT device.In the presence of a high false positive rate in ADSs,to deal with the trade-off between the security and availability of data,we develop a linear programming model referred to as a security trade-off(ST)model.Next,we develop an analysis framework for the ST model,and solve the ST model on an IoT simulation platform.Last,we reveal the effect of some factors on the maximum combined detection rate through theoretical analysis.Simulations show that the ADS management scheme can mitigate the data unavailability loss caused by the high false positive rates in ADS.

Unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)have been widely used in military,medical,wireless communications,aerial surveillance,etc.One key topic involving UAVs is pose estimation in autonomous navigation.A standard procedure for this process is to combine inertial navigation system sensor information with the global navigation satellite system(GNSS)signal.However,some factors can interfere with the GNSS signal,such as ionospheric scintillation,jamming,or spoofing.One alternative method to avoid using the GNSS signal is to apply an image processing approach by matching UAV images with georeferenced images.But a high effort is required for image edge extraction.Here a support vector regression(SVR)model is proposed to reduce this computational load and processing time.The dynamic partial reconfiguration(DPR)of part of the SVR datapath is implemented to accelerate the process,reduce the area,and analyze its granularity by increasing the grain size of the reconfigurable region.Results show that the implementation in hardware is 68 times faster than that in software.This architecture with DPR also facilitates the low power consumption of 4 mW,leading to a reduction of 57%than that without DPR.This is also the lowest power consumption in current machine learning hardware implementations.Besides,the circuitry area is 41 times smaller.SVR with Gaussian kernel shows a success rate of 99.18%and minimum square error of 0.0146 for testing with the planning trajectory.This system is useful for adaptive applications where the user/designer can modify/reconfigure the hardware layout during its application,thus contributing to lower power consumption,smaller hardware area,and shorter execution time.
