Density Clustering Algorithm Based on KD-Tree and Voting Rules

Traditional clustering algorithms often struggle to produce satisfactory results when dealing with datasets withuneven density. Additionally, they incur substantial computational costs when applied to high-dimensional datadue to calculating similarity matrices. To alleviate these issues, we employ the KD-Tree to partition the dataset andcompute the K-nearest neighbors (KNN) density for each point, thereby avoiding the computation of similaritymatrices. Moreover, we apply the rules of voting elections, treating each data point as a voter and casting a votefor the point with the highest density among its KNN. By utilizing the vote counts of each point, we develop thestrategy for classifying noise points and potential cluster centers, allowing the algorithm to identify clusters withuneven density and complex shapes. Additionally, we define the concept of “adhesive points” between two clustersto merge adjacent clusters that have similar densities. This process helps us identify the optimal number of clustersautomatically. Experimental results indicate that our algorithm not only improves the efficiency of clustering butalso increases its accuracy.

Novel traveling quantum anonymous voting scheme via GHZ states

Based on traveling ballot mode,we propose a secure quantum anonymous voting via Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger(GHZ)states.In this scheme,each legal voter performs unitary operation on corresponding position of particle sequence to encode his/her voting content.The voters have multiple ballot items to choose rather than just binary options“yes”or“no”.After counting votes phase,any participant who is interested in voting results can obtain the voting results.To improve the efficiency of the traveling quantum anonymous voting scheme,an optimization method based on grouping strategy is also presented.Compared with the most existing traveling quantum voting schemes,the proposed scheme is more practical because of its privacy,verifiability and non-repeatability.Furthermore,the security analysis shows that the proposed traveling quantum anonymous voting scheme can prevent various attacks and ensure high security.

Maximizing Influence in Temporal Social Networks:A Node Feature-Aware Voting Algorithm

Influence Maximization(IM)aims to select a seed set of size k in a social network so that information can be spread most widely under a specific information propagation model through this set of nodes.However,most existing studies on the IM problem focus on static social network features,while neglecting the features of temporal social networks.To bridge this gap,we focus on node features reflected by their historical interaction behavior in temporal social networks,i.e.,interaction attributes and self-similarity,and incorporate them into the influence maximization algorithm and information propagation model.Firstly,we propose a node feature-aware voting algorithm,called ISVoteRank,for seed nodes selection.Specifically,before voting,the algorithm sets the initial voting ability of nodes in a personalized manner by combining their features.During the voting process,voting weights are set based on the interaction strength between nodes,allowing nodes to vote at different extents and subsequently weakening their voting ability accordingly.The process concludes by selecting the top k nodes with the highest voting scores as seeds,avoiding the inefficiency of iterative seed selection in traditional voting-based algorithms.Secondly,we extend the Independent Cascade(IC)model and propose the Dynamic Independent Cascade(DIC)model,which aims to capture the dynamic features in the information propagation process by combining node features.Finally,experiments demonstrate that the ISVoteRank algorithm has been improved in both effectiveness and efficiency compared to baseline methods,and the influence spread through the DIC model is improved compared to the IC model.

Voting Classifier and Metaheuristic Optimization for Network Intrusion Detection

Managing physical objects in the network’s periphery is made possible by the Internet of Things(IoT),revolutionizing human life.Open attacks and unauthorized access are possible with these IoT devices,which exchange data to enable remote access.These attacks are often detected using intrusion detection methodologies,although these systems’effectiveness and accuracy are subpar.This paper proposes a new voting classifier composed of an ensemble of machine learning models trained and optimized using metaheuristic optimization.The employed metaheuristic optimizer is a new version of the whale optimization algorithm(WOA),which is guided by the dipper throated optimizer(DTO)to improve the exploration process of the traditionalWOA optimizer.The proposed voting classifier categorizes the network intrusions robustly and efficiently.To assess the proposed approach,a dataset created from IoT devices is employed to record the efficiency of the proposed algorithm for binary attack categorization.The dataset records are balanced using the locality-sensitive hashing(LSH)and Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique(SMOTE).The evaluation of the achieved results is performed in terms of statistical analysis and visual plots to prove the proposed approach’s effectiveness,stability,and significance.The achieved results confirmed the superiority of the proposed algorithm for the task of network intrusion detection.

Deep Learning-Based Robust Morphed Face Authentication Framework for Online Systems

The amalgamation of artificial intelligence(AI)with various areas has been in the picture for the past few years.AI has enhanced the functioning of several services,such as accomplishing better budgets,automating multiple tasks,and data-driven decision-making.Conducting hassle-free polling has been one of them.However,at the onset of the coronavirus in 2020,almost all worldly affairs occurred online,and many sectors switched to digital mode.This allows attackers to find security loopholes in digital systems and exploit them for their lucrative business.This paper proposes a three-layered deep learning(DL)-based authentication framework to develop a secure online polling system.It provides a novel way to overcome security breaches during the face identity(ID)recognition and verification process for online polling systems.This verification is done by training a pixel-2-pixel Pix2pix generative adversarial network(GAN)for face image reconstruction to remove facial objects present(if any).Furthermore,image-to-image matching is done by implementing the Siamese network and comparing the result of various metrics executed on feature embeddings to obtain the outcome,thus checking the electorate credentials.

An Intelligent Hazardous Waste Detection and Classification Model Using Ensemble Learning Techniques

Proper waste management models using recent technologies like computer vision,machine learning(ML),and deep learning(DL)are needed to effectively handle the massive quantity of increasing waste.Therefore,waste classification becomes a crucial topic which helps to categorize waste into hazardous or non-hazardous ones and thereby assist in the decision making of the waste management process.This study concentrates on the design of hazardous waste detection and classification using ensemble learning(HWDC-EL)technique to reduce toxicity and improve human health.The goal of the HWDC-EL technique is to detect the multiple classes of wastes,particularly hazardous and non-hazardous wastes.The HWDC-EL technique involves the ensemble of three feature extractors using Model Averaging technique namely discrete local binary patterns(DLBP),EfficientNet,and DenseNet121.In addition,the flower pollination algorithm(FPA)based hyperparameter optimizers are used to optimally adjust the parameters involved in the EfficientNet and DenseNet121 models.Moreover,a weighted voting-based ensemble classifier is derived using three machine learning algorithms namely support vector machine(SVM),extreme learning machine(ELM),and gradient boosting tree(GBT).The performance of the HWDC-EL technique is tested using a benchmark Garbage dataset and it obtains a maximum accuracy of 98.85%.

Classifying Hematoxylin and Eosin Images Using a Super-Resolution Segmentor and a Deep Ensemble Classifier

Developing an automatic and credible diagnostic system to analyze the type,stage,and level of the liver cancer from Hematoxylin and Eosin(H&E)images is a very challenging and time-consuming endeavor,even for experienced pathologists,due to the non-uniform illumination and artifacts.Albeit several Machine Learning(ML)and Deep Learning(DL)approaches are employed to increase the performance of automatic liver cancer diagnostic systems,the classi-fication accuracy of these systems still needs significant improvement to satisfy the real-time requirement of the diagnostic situations.In this work,we present a new Ensemble Classifier(hereafter called ECNet)to classify the H&E stained liver histopathology images effectively.The proposed model employs a Dropout Extreme Learning Machine(DrpXLM)and the Enhanced Convolutional Block Attention Modules(ECBAM)based residual network.ECNet applies Voting Mechanism(VM)to integrate the decisions of individual classifiers using the average of probabilities rule.Initially,the nuclei regions in the H&E stain are seg-mented through Super-resolution Convolutional Networks(SrCN),and then these regions are fed into the ensemble DL network for classification.The effectiveness of the proposed model is carefully studied on real-world datasets.The results of our meticulous experiments on the Kasturba Medical College(KMC)liver dataset reveal that the proposed ECNet significantly outperforms other existing classifica-tion networks with better accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,precision,and Jaccard Similarity Score(JSS)of 96.5%,99.4%,89.7%,95.7%,and 95.2%,respectively.We obtain similar results from ECNet when applied to The Cancer Genome Atlas Liver Hepatocellular Carcinoma(TCGA-LIHC)dataset regarding accuracy(96.3%),sensitivity(97.5%),specificity(93.2%),precision(97.5%),and JSS(95.1%).More importantly,the proposed ECNet system consumes only 12.22 s for training and 1.24 s for testing.Also,we carry out the Wilcoxon statistical test to determine whether the ECNet provides a considerable improvement with respect to evaluation metrics or not.From extensive empirical analysis,we can conclude that our ECNet is the better liver cancer diagnostic model related to state-of-the-art classifiers.

Ensemble Learning for Fetal Health Classification

Cardiotocography(CTG)represents the fetus’s health inside the womb during labor.However,assessment of its readings can be a highly subjective process depending on the expertise of the obstetrician.Digital signals from fetal monitors acquire parameters(i.e.,fetal heart rate,contractions,acceleration).Objective:This paper aims to classify the CTG readings containing imbalanced healthy,suspected,and pathological fetus readings.Method:We perform two sets of experiments.Firstly,we employ five classifiers:Random Forest(RF),Adaptive Boosting(AdaBoost),Categorical Boosting(CatBoost),Extreme Gradient Boosting(XGBoost),and Light Gradient Boosting Machine(LGBM)without over-sampling to classify CTG readings into three categories:healthy,suspected,and pathological.Secondly,we employ an ensemble of the above-described classifiers with the oversamplingmethod.We use a random over-sampling technique to balance CTG records to train the ensemble models.We use 3602 CTG readings to train the ensemble classifiers and 1201 records to evaluate them.The outcomes of these classifiers are then fed into the soft voting classifier to obtain the most accurate results.Results:Each classifier evaluates accuracy,Precision,Recall,F1-scores,and Area Under the Receiver Operating Curve(AUROC)values.Results reveal that the XGBoost,LGBM,and CatBoost classifiers yielded 99%accuracy.Conclusion:Using ensemble classifiers over a balanced CTG dataset improves the detection accuracy compared to the previous studies and our first experiment.A soft voting classifier then eliminates the weakness of one individual classifier to yield superior performance of the overall model.

Ensemble Voting-Based Anomaly Detection for a Smart Grid Communication Infrastructure

Advanced Metering Infrastructure(AMI)is the metering network of the smart grid that enables bidirectional communications between each consumer’s premises and the provider’s control center.The massive amount of data collected supports the real-time decision-making required for diverse applications.The communication infrastructure relies on different network types,including the Internet.This makes the infrastructure vulnerable to various attacks,which could compromise security or have devastating effects.However,traditional machine learning solutions cannot adapt to the increasing complexity and diversity of attacks.The objective of this paper is to develop an Anomaly Detection System(ADS)based on deep learning using the CIC-IDS2017 dataset.However,this dataset is highly imbalanced;thus,a two-step sampling technique:random under-sampling and the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique(SMOTE),is proposed to balance the dataset.The proposed system utilizes a multiple hidden layer Auto-encoder(AE)for feature extraction and dimensional reduction.In addition,an ensemble voting based on both Random Forest(RF)and Convolu-tional Neural Network(CNN)is developed to classify the multiclass attack cate-gories.The proposed system is evaluated and compared with six different state-of-the-art machine learning and deep learning algorithms:Random Forest(RF),Light Gradient Boosting Machine(LightGBM),eXtreme Gradient Boosting(XGboost),Convolutional Neural Network(CNN),Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM),and bidirectional LSTM(biLSTM).Experimental results show that the proposed model enhances the detection for each attack class compared with the other machine learning and deep learning models with overall accuracy(98.29%),precision(99%),recall(98%),F_(1) score(98%),and the UNDetection rate(UND)(8%).
