Anomaly Detection Based on Discrete Wavelet Transformation for Insider Threat Classification

Unlike external attacks,insider threats arise from legitimate users who belong to the organization.These individuals may be a potential threat for hostile behavior depending on their motives.For insider detection,many intrusion detection systems learn and prevent known scenarios,but because malicious behavior has similar patterns to normal behavior,in reality,these systems can be evaded.Furthermore,because insider threats share a feature space similar to normal behavior,identifying them by detecting anomalies has limitations.This study proposes an improved anomaly detection methodology for insider threats that occur in cybersecurity in which a discrete wavelet transformation technique is applied to classify normal vs.malicious users.The discrete wavelet transformation technique easily discovers new patterns or decomposes synthesized data,making it possible to distinguish between shared characteristics.To verify the efficacy of the proposed methodology,experiments were conducted in which normal users and malicious users were classified based on insider threat scenarios provided in Carnegie Mellon University’s Computer Emergency Response Team(CERT)dataset.The experimental results indicate that the proposed methodology with discrete wavelet transformation reduced the false-positive rate by 82%to 98%compared to the case with no wavelet applied.Thus,the proposed methodology has high potential for application to similar feature spaces.

ASTER Data Processing by Discrete Wavelets Transform and Band Ratio Techniques for the Identification of Lineaments and Hydrothermal Alteration Zones in Poli, North Cameroon

The aim of this study is to carry out hydrothermal alteration mapping and structural mapping using ASTER images in order to identify indices that could guide mining exploration work in the Poli area and its surroundings. To achieve this, the ASTER images were first preprocessed to correct atmospheric effects and remove vegetation influence. Secondly, a lineament mapping was conducted by applying Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) algorithms to the First Principal Component Analysis (PCA1) of Visible Near-Infrared (VNIR) and Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) bands. Lastly, band ratio methods were applied to the VNIR, SWIR, and Thermal Infrared (TIR) bands to determine indices of iron oxides/hydroxides (hematite and limonite), hydroxyl-bearing minerals (chlorite, epidote, and muscovite), and the quartz index. The results obtained showed that the lineaments were mainly oriented NE-SW, ENE-WSW, and E-W, with NE-SW being the most predominant direction. Concerning hydrothermal alteration, the identified indices covered almost the entire study area and showed a strong correlation with lithological data. Overlaying the obtained lineaments with the hydrothermal alteration indices revealed a significant correlation between existing mining indices and those observed in the field. Mineralized zones generally coincided with areas of high lineament density exhibiting significant hydrothermal alteration. Based on the correlation between existing mining indices and the results of hydrothermal and structural mapping, the results obtained can then be used as a reference document for any mining exploration in the study area.

A New Image Watermarking Scheme Using Genetic Algorithm and Residual Numbers with Discrete Wavelet Transform

Transmission of data over the internet has become a critical issue as a result of the advancement in technology, since it is possible for pirates to steal the intellectual property of content owners. This paper presents a new digital watermarking scheme that combines some operators of the Genetic Algorithm (GA) and the Residue Number (RN) System (RNS) to perform encryption on an image, which is embedded into a cover image for the purposes of watermarking. Thus, an image watermarking scheme uses an encrypted image. The secret image is embedded in decomposed frames of the cover image achieved by applying a three-level Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). This is to ensure that the secret information is not exposed even when there is a successful attack on the cover information. Content creators can prove ownership of the multimedia content by unveiling the secret information in a court of law. The proposed scheme was tested with sample data using MATLAB2022 and the results of the simulation show a great deal of imperceptibility and robustness as compared to similar existing schemes.

Coupling denoising algorithm based on discrete wavelet transform and modified median filter for medical image

In order to overcome the phenomenon of image blur and edge loss in the process of collecting and transmitting medical image,a denoising method of medical image based on discrete wavelet transform(DWT)and modified median filter for medical image coupling denoising is proposed.The method is composed of four modules:image acquisition,image storage,image processing and image reconstruction.Image acquisition gets the medical image that contains Gaussian noise and impulse noise.Image storage includes the preservation of data and parameters of the original image and processed image.In the third module,the medical image is decomposed as four sub bands(LL,HL,LH,HH)by wavelet decomposition,where LL is low frequency,LH,HL,HH are respective for horizontal,vertical and in the diagonal line high frequency component.Using improved wavelet threshold to process high frequency coefficients and retain low frequency coefficients,the modified median filtering is performed on three high frequency sub bands after wavelet threshold processing.The last module is image reconstruction,which means getting the image after denoising by wavelet reconstruction.The advantage of this method is combining the advantages of median filter and wavelet to make the denoising effect better,not a simple combination of the two previous methods.With DWT and improved median filter coefficients coupling denoising,it is highly practical for high-precision medical images containing complex noises.The experimental results of proposed algorithm are compared with the results of median filter,wavelet transform,contourlet and DT-CWT,etc.According to visual evaluation index PSNR and SNR and Canny edge detection,in low noise images,PSNR and SNR increase by 10%–15%;in high noise images,PSNR and SNR increase by 2%–6%.The experimental results of the proposed algorithm achieved better acceptable results compared with other methods,which provides an important method for the diagnosis of medical condition.

Interpolation of Images Using Discrete Wavelet Transform to Simulate Image Resizing as in Human Vision

This paper presents discrete wavelet transform （DWT） and its inverse （IDWT） with Haar wavelets as tools to compute the variable size interpolated versions of an image at optimum computational load. As a human observer moves closer to or farther from a scene, the retinal image of the scene zooms in or out, respectively. This zooming in or out can be modeled using variable scale interpolation. The paper proposes a novel way of applying DWT and IDWT in a piecewise manner by non-uniform down- or up-sampling of the images to achieve partially sampled versions of the images. The partially sampled versions are then aggregated to achieve the final variable scale interpolated images. The non-uniform down- or up-sampling here is a function of the required scale of interpolation. Appropriate zero padding is used to make the images suitable for the required non-uniform sampling and the subsequent interpolation to the required scale. The concept of zeroeth level DWT is introduced here, which works as the basis for interpolating the images to achieve bigger size than the original one. The main emphasis here is on the computation of variable size images at less computational load, without compromise of quality of images. The interpolated images to different sizes and the reconstructed images are benchmarked using the statistical parameters and visual comparison. It has been found that the proposed approach performs better as compared to bilinear and bicubic interpolation techniques.

FAST TEXT LOCATION BASED ON DISCRETE WAVELET TRANSFORM

The paper describes a texture-based fast text location scheme which operates directly in the Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) domain. By the distinguishing texture characteristics encoded in wavelet transform domain, the text is fast detected from complex background images stored in the compressed format such as JPEG2000 without full decompress. Compared with some traditional character location methods, the proposed scheme has the advantages of low computational cost, robust to size and font of characters and high accuracy. Preliminary experimental results show that the proposed scheme is efficient and effective.

Classification of human emotion from EEG using discrete wavelet transform

In this paper, we summarize the human emotion recognition using different set of electroencephalogram (EEG) channels using discrete wavelet transform. An audio-visual induction based protocol has been designed with more dynamic emotional content for inducing discrete emotions (disgust, happy, surprise, fear and neutral). EEG signals are collected using 64 electrodes from 20 subjects and are placed over the entire scalp using International 10-10 system. The raw EEG signals are preprocessed using Surface Laplacian (SL) filtering method and decomposed into three different frequency bands (alpha, beta and gamma) using Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT). We have used “db4” wavelet function for deriving a set of conventional and modified energy based features from the EEG signals for classifying emotions. Two simple pattern classification methods, K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) methods are used and their performances are compared for emotional states classification. The experimental results indicate that, one of the proposed features (ALREE) gives the maximum average classification rate of 83.26% using KNN and 75.21% using LDA compared to those of conventional features. Finally, we present the average classification rate and subsets of emotions classification rate of these two different classifiers for justifying the performance of our emotion recognition system.

Denoising of an Image Using Discrete Stationary Wavelet Transform and Various Thresholding Techniques

Image denoising has remained a fundamental problem in the field of image processing. With Wavelet transforms, various algorithms for denoising in wavelet domain were introduced. Wavelets gave a superior performance in image denoising due to its properties such as multi-resolution. The problem of estimating an image that is corrupted by Additive White Gaussian Noise has been of interest for practical and theoretical reasons. Non-linear methods especially those based on wavelets have become popular due to its advantages over linear methods. Here I applied non-linear thresholding techniques in wavelet domain such as hard and soft thresholding, wavelet shrinkages such as Visu-shrink (non-adaptive) and SURE, Bayes and Normal Shrink (adaptive), using Discrete Stationary Wavelet Transform (DSWT) for different wavelets, at different levels, to denoise an image and determine the best one out of them. Performance of denoising algorithm is measured using quantitative performance measures such as Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) and Mean Square Error (MSE) for various thresholding techniques.

A Robust Image Watermarking Scheme Using Z-Transform, Discrete Wavelet Transform and Bidiagonal Singular Value Decomposition

Watermarking is a widely used solution to the problems of authentication and copyright protection of digital media especially for images,videos,and audio data.Chaos is one of the emerging techniques adopted in image watermarking schemes due to its intrinsic cryptographic properties.This paper proposes a new chaotic hybrid watermarking method combining Discrete Wavelet Transform(DWT),Z-transform(ZT)and Bidiagonal Singular Value Decomposition(BSVD).The original image is decomposed into 3-level DWT,and then,ZT is applied on the HH3 and HL3 sub-bands.The watermark image is encrypted using Arnold Cat Map.BSVD for the watermark and transformed original image were computed,and the watermark was embedded by modifying singular values of the host image with the singular values of the watermark image.Robustness of the proposed scheme was examined using standard test images and assessed against common signal processing and geometric attacks.Experiments indicated that the proposed method is transparent and highly robust.

Audio Zero-Watermark Scheme Based on Discrete Cosine Transform-Discrete Wavelet TransformSingular Value Decomposition

Traditional watermark embedding schemes inevitably modify the data in a host audio signal and lead to the degradation of the host signal.In this paper,a novel audio zero-watermarking algorithm based on discrete wavelet transform(DWT),discrete cosine transform(DCT),and singular value decomposition(SVD) is presented.The watermark is registered by performing SVD on the coefficients generated through DWT and DCT to avoid data modification and host signal degradation.Simulation results show that the proposed zero-watermarking algorithm is strongly robust to common signal processing methods such as requantization,MP3 compression,resampling,addition of white Gaussian noise,and low-pass filtering.

A lightweight symmetric image encryption cryptosystem in wavelet domain based on an improved sine map

In the era of big data,the number of images transmitted over the public channel increases exponentially.As a result,it is crucial to devise the efficient and highly secure encryption method to safeguard the sensitive image.In this paper,an improved sine map(ISM)possessing a larger chaotic region,more complex chaotic behavior and greater unpredictability is proposed and extensively tested.Drawing upon the strengths of ISM,we introduce a lightweight symmetric image encryption cryptosystem in wavelet domain(WDLIC).The WDLIC employs selective encryption to strike a satisfactory balance between security and speed.Initially,only the low-frequency-low-frequency component is chosen to encrypt utilizing classic permutation and diffusion.Then leveraging the statistical properties in wavelet domain,Gaussianization operation which opens the minds of encrypting image information in wavelet domain is first proposed and employed to all sub-bands.Simulations and theoretical analysis demonstrate the high speed and the remarkable effectiveness of WDLIC.

Comparison of fast discrete wavelet transform algorithms

This paper presents an analysis on and experimental comparison of several typical fast algorithms for discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and their implementation in image compression, particularly the Mallat algorithm, FFT-based algorithm, Short- length based algorithm and Lifting algorithm. The principles, structures and computational complexity of these algorithms are explored in details respectively. The results of the experiments for comparison are consistent to those simulated by MATLAB. It is found that there are limitations in the implementation of DWT. Some algorithms are workable only for special wavelet transform, lacking in generality. Above all, the speed of wavelet transform, as the governing element to the speed of image processing, is in fact the retarding factor for real-time image processing.
