Cluster DetectionMethod of Endogenous Security Abnormal Attack Behavior in Air Traffic Control Network

In order to enhance the accuracy of Air Traffic Control(ATC)cybersecurity attack detection,in this paper,a new clustering detection method is designed for air traffic control network security attacks.The feature set for ATC cybersecurity attacks is constructed by setting the feature states,adding recursive features,and determining the feature criticality.The expected information gain and entropy of the feature data are computed to determine the information gain of the feature data and reduce the interference of similar feature data.An autoencoder is introduced into the AI(artificial intelligence)algorithm to encode and decode the characteristics of ATC network security attack behavior to reduce the dimensionality of the ATC network security attack behavior data.Based on the above processing,an unsupervised learning algorithm for clustering detection of ATC network security attacks is designed.First,determine the distance between the clustering clusters of ATC network security attack behavior characteristics,calculate the clustering threshold,and construct the initial clustering center.Then,the new average value of all feature objects in each cluster is recalculated as the new cluster center.Second,it traverses all objects in a cluster of ATC network security attack behavior feature data.Finally,the cluster detection of ATC network security attack behavior is completed by the computation of objective functions.The experiment took three groups of experimental attack behavior data sets as the test object,and took the detection rate,false detection rate and recall rate as the test indicators,and selected three similar methods for comparative test.The experimental results show that the detection rate of this method is about 98%,the false positive rate is below 1%,and the recall rate is above 97%.Research shows that this method can improve the detection performance of security attacks in air traffic control network.

A Double Threshold Energy Detection-Based Neural Network for Cognitive Radio Networks

In cognitive radio networks(CoR),the performance of cooperative spectrum sensing is improved by reducing the overall error rate or maximizing the detection probability.Several optimization methods are usually used to optimize the number of user-chosen for cooperation and the threshold selection.However,these methods do not take into account the effect of sample size and its effect on improving CoR performance.In general,a large sample size results in more reliable detection,but takes longer sensing time and increases complexity.Thus,the locally sensed sample size is an optimization problem.Therefore,optimizing the local sample size for each cognitive user helps to improve CoR performance.In this study,two new methods are proposed to find the optimum sample size to achieve objective-based improved(single/double)threshold energy detection,these methods are the optimum sample size N^(*)and neural networks(NN)optimization.Through the evaluation,it was found that the proposed methods outperform the traditional sample size selection in terms of the total error rate,detection probability,and throughput.

A model of sea surface temperature front detection based on a threshold interval

A model （Bayesian oceanic front detection, BOFD） of sea surface temperature （SST） front detection in satel- lite-derived SST images based on a threshold interval is presented, to be used in different applications such as climatic and environmental studies or fisheries. The model first computes the SST gradient by using a Sobel algorithm template. On the basis of the gradient value, the threshold interval is determined by a gradi- ent cumulative histogram. According to this threshold interval, front candidates can be acquired and prior probability and likelihood can be calculated. Whether or not the candidates are front points can be deter- mined by using the Bayesian decision theory. The model is evaluated on the Advanced Very High-Resolution Radiometer images of part of the Kuroshio front region. Results are compared with those obtained by using several SST front detection methods proposed in the literature. This comparison shows that the BOFD not only suppresses noise and small-scale fronts, but also retains continuous fronts.

An automatic detection of green tide using multi-windows with their adaptive threshold from Landsat TM/ETM plus image

Since the atmospheric correction is a necessary preprocessing step of remote sensing image before detecting green tide, the introduced error directly affects the detection precision. Therefore, the detection method of green tide is presented from Landsat TM/ETM plus image which needs not the atmospheric correction. In order to achieve an automatic detection of green tide, a linear relationship（y =0.723 x＋0.504） between detection threshold y and subtraction x（x=λnir–λred） is found from the comparing Landsat TM/ETM plus image with the field surveys.Using this relationship, green tide patches can be detected automatically from Landsat TM/ETM plus image.Considering there is brightness difference between different regions in an image, the image will be divided into a plurality of windows（sub-images） with a same size firstly, and then each window will be detected using an adaptive detection threshold determined according to the discovered linear relationship. It is found that big errors will appear in some windows, such as those covered by clouds seriously. To solve this problem, the moving step k of windows is proposed to be less than the window width n. Using this mechanism, most pixels will be detected[n/k]×[n/k] times except the boundary pixels, then every pixel will be assigned the final class（green tide or sea water） according to majority rule voting strategy. It can be seen from the experiments, the proposed detection method using multi-windows and their adaptive thresholds can detect green tide from Landsat TM/ETM plus image automatically. Meanwhile, it avoids the reliance on the accurate atmospheric correction.

Adaptive Dual-Threshold Edge Detection Based on Wavelet Transform

In order to solve the problems of local maximum modulus extraction and threshold selection in the edge detection of finite resolution digital images, a new wavelet transform based adaptive dual threshold edge detection algorithm is proposed. The local maximum modulus is extracted by linear interpolation in wavelet domain. With the analysis on histogram, the image is filtered with an adaptive dual threshold method, which effectively detects the contours of small structures as well as the boundaries of large objects. A wavelet domain's propagation function is used to further select weak edges. Experimental results have shown the self adaptivity of the threshold to images having the same kind of histogram, and the efficiency even in noise tampered images.

Efficient Crack Severity Level Classification Using Bilayer Detection for Building Structures

Detection of cracks at the early stage is considered as very constructive since precautionary steps need to be taken to avoid the damage to the civil structures.Moreover,identifying and classifying the severity level of cracks is inevitable in order to find the stability of buildings.Hence,this paper proposes an efficient strategy to classify the cracks into fine,medium,and thick using a novel bilayer crack detection algorithm.The bilayer crack detection algorithm helps in extracting the requisite features from the crack for efficient classification.The proposed algorithm works well in the dark background and connects the discontinued cracks too.The first layer is used to detect cracks under texture variations and manufacturing defects,through segmented adaptive thresholding and morphological operations.The residual noise present in the output of the first layer is removed in the second layer of crack detection.The second layer includes the double scan and the noise reduction algorithms and is used to join the missed crack parts.As a result,a segmented crack is formed.Further classification is done using an ensemble classifier with bagging,and decision tree techniques by extracting the geometrical features and the weaker crack criterion from the segmented part.The results of the proposed technique are compared with the existing techniques for different datasets and have obtained a rise in True Positive Rate(TPR),accuracy and precision value.The proposed technique is also implemented in Raspberry Pi for further real-time evaluation.

Wavelet threshold method of resolving noise interference in periodic short-impulse signals chaotic detection

The chaotic oscillator has already been considered as a powerful method to detect weak signals, even weak signals accompanied with noises. However, many examples, analyses and simulations indicate that chaotic oscillator detection system cannot guarantee the immunity to noises （even white noise）. In fact the randomness of noises has a serious or even a destructive effect on the detection results in many cases. To solve this problem, we present a new detecting method based on wavelet threshold processing that can detect the chaotic weak signal accompanied with noise. All theoretical analyses and simulation experiments indicate that the new method reduces the noise interferences to detection significantly, thereby making the corresponding chaotic oscillator that detects the weak signals accompanied with noises more stable and reliable.

Edge detection is an effective method for image segmentation and feature extraction.Therefore,extracting weak edges with the inhomogeneous gray of Corona Virus Disease 2019(COVID-19)CT images is extremely important.Multiscale morphology has been widely used in the edge detection of medical images due to its excellent boundary detection accuracy.In this paper,we propose a weak edge detection method based on Gaussian filtering and singlescale Retinex(GF_SSR),and improved multiscale morphology and adaptive threshold binarization(IMSM_ATB).As all the CT images have noise,we propose to remove image noise by Gaussian filtering.The edge of CT images is enhanced using the SSR algorithm.In addition,based on the extracted edge of CT images using improved Multiscale morphology,a particle swarm optimization(PSO)algorithm is introduced to binarize the image by automatically getting the optimal threshold.To evaluate our method,we use images from three datasets,namely COVID-19,Kaggle-COVID-19,and COVID-Chestxray,respectively.The average values of results are worthy of reference,with the Shannon information entropy of 1.8539,the Precision of 0.9992,the Recall of 0.8224,the F-Score of 1.9158,running time of 11.3000.Finally,three types of lesion images in the COVID-19 dataset are selected to evaluate the visual effects of the proposed algorithm.Compared with the other four algorithms,the proposed algorithm effectively detects the weak edge of the lesion and provides help for image segmentation and feature extraction.

Robust Fault Detection and Isolation Based on Finite-frequency H__/H_∞ Unknown Input Observers and Zonotopic Threshold Analysis

This work proposes a robust fault detection and isolation scheme for discrete-time systems subject to actuator faults,in which a bank of H_/H∞ fault detection unknown input observers(UIOs) and a zonotopic threshold analysis strategy are considered. In observer design, finite-frequency H_ index based on the generalized Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov lemma and H∞ technique are utilized to evaluate worst-case fault sensitivity and disturbance attenuation performance, respectively. The proposed H_/H∞ fault detection observers are designed to be insensitive to the corresponding actuator fault only, but sensitive to others.Then, to overcome the weakness of predefining threshold for FDI decision-making, this work proposes a zonotopic threshold analysis method to evaluate the generated residuals. The FDI decision-making relies on the evaluation with a dynamical zonotopic threshold. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to show the feasibility of the proposed scheme.

Estimation of detection threshold in multiple ship target situations with HF ground wave radar

A credible method of calculating the detection threshold is presented for the multiple target situations, which appear frequently in the lower Doppler velocity region during the surveillance of sea with HF ground wave radar. This method defines a whole-peak-outlier elimination （WPOE） criterion, which is based on in-peak-samples correlation of each target echo spectra, to trim off the target signals and abnormal disturbances with great amplitude from the complex spectra. Therefore, cleaned background noise samples are obtained to improve the accuracy and reliability of noise level estimation. When the background noise is nonhomogeneous, the detection samples are limited and often occupied heavily with outliers. In this case, the problem that the detection threshold is overvalued can be solved. In applications on experimental data, it is verified that this method can reduce the miss alarm rate of signal detection effectively in multiple target situations as well as make the adaptability of the detector better.

The Q and S waves can then be accurately positioned based on the basic characteristics of QRS waves. Finally, the algorithm simulation is made based on the signals from MIT-BIH database with MATLAB. The ex- perimental results show that the algorithm can improve the detection accuracy rate to 99. 91% and o- vercome the problem of larger computation load for wavelet transform and other methods, so the al- gorithm is suitable for real-time detection.

Developing a Secure Framework Using Feature Selection and Attack Detection Technique

Intrusion detection is critical to guaranteeing the safety of the data in the network.Even though,since Internet commerce has grown at a breakneck pace,network traffic kinds are rising daily,and network behavior characteristics are becoming increasingly complicated,posing significant hurdles to intrusion detection.The challenges in terms of false positives,false negatives,low detection accuracy,high running time,adversarial attacks,uncertain attacks,etc.lead to insecure Intrusion Detection System(IDS).To offset the existing challenge,the work has developed a secure Data Mining Intrusion detection system(DataMIDS)framework using Functional Perturbation(FP)feature selection and Bengio Nesterov Momentum-based Tuned Generative Adversarial Network(BNM-tGAN)attack detection technique.The data mining-based framework provides shallow learning of features and emphasizes feature engineering as well as selection.Initially,the IDS data are analyzed for missing values based on the Marginal Likelihood Fisher Information Matrix technique(MLFIMT)that identifies the relationship among the missing values and attack classes.Based on the analysis,the missing values are classified as Missing Completely at Random(MCAR),Missing at random(MAR),Missing Not at Random(MNAR),and handled according to the types.Thereafter,categorical features are handled followed by feature scaling using Absolute Median Division based Robust Scalar(AMDRS)and the Handling of the imbalanced dataset.The selection of relevant features is initiated using FP that uses‘3’Feature Selection(FS)techniques i.e.,Inverse Chi Square based Flamingo Search(ICS-FSO)wrapper method,Hyperparameter Tuned Threshold based Decision Tree(HpTT-DT)embedded method,and Xavier Normal Distribution based Relief(XavND-Relief)filter method.Finally,the selected features are trained and tested for detecting attacks using BNM-tGAN.The Experimental analysis demonstrates that the introduced DataMIDS framework produces an accurate diagnosis about the attack with low computation time.The work avoids false alarm rate of attacks and remains to be relatively robust against malicious attacks as compared to existing methods.

Low-order Duffing and high-order Rossler chaotic oscillator are connected together and new self-adaption frequency detection method is presented. The frequency difference control between unknown signal and the periodic driving force is realized in this paper and the self-adaption is obtained. Thus, the detection precision and speed are promoted. The limitation that there are too many chaotic oscillators in Duffing system is broken. Meanwhile the disadvantage that the detection speed is lower in R ssler chaotic control is overcome. The self-adaption choice of frequency difference control is realized using the Duffing and Rssler different chaotic oscillators to obtain unknown signal frequency. The simulation results show that the presented method is feasible and effective.

SAR image despeckling based on edge detection and nonsubsampled second generation bandelets

To preserve the sharp features and details of the synthetic aperture radar （SAR） image effectively when despeckling, a despeckling algorithm with edge detection in nonsubsampled second generation bandelet transform （NSBT） domain is proposed. First, the Canny operator is utilized to detect and remove edges from the SAR image. Then the NSBT which has an optimal approximation to the edges of images and a hard thresholding rule are used to approximate the details while despeckling the edge-removed image. Finally, the removed edges are added to the reconstructed image. As the edges axe detected and protected, and the NSBT is used, the proposed algorithm reaches the state-of-the-art effect which realizes both despeckling and preserving edges and details simultaneously. Experimental results show that both the subjective visual effect and the mainly objective performance indexes of the proposed algorithm outperform that of both Bayesian wavelet shrinkage with edge detection and Bayesian least square-Gaussian scale mixture （BLS-GSM）.
