In this article, we investigate secure mobile crowdsensing and present ways to use deep learning(DL) methods, such as stacked autoencoder, deep neural networks, convolutional neural networks, and deep reinforcement learning, to improve approaches to MCS security, including authentication, privacy protection, faked sensing countermeasures, intrusion detection and anti-jamming transmissions in MCS. We discuss the performance gain of these DLbased approaches compared to traditional security schemes and identify the challenges that must be addressed to implement these approaches in practical MCS systems.展开更多
