A fast instance reduction algorithm for intrusion detection scenarios

We live in a world that is being driven by data. This leads to challenges of extracting and analyzing knowledge from large volumes of data. An example of such a challenge is intrusion detection. Intrusion detection data sets are characterized by huge volumes, which affects the learning of the classifier. So there is a need to reduce the size...

A multi-measure feature selection algorithm for efficacious intrusion detection

Every day the number of devices interacting through telecommunications networks grows resulting into an increase in the volume of data and information generated. At the same time, a growing number of information security incidents is being observed including the occurrence of unauthorized accesses, also named intrusions. As a consequence of...

A data reduction strategy and its application on scan and backscatter detection using rule-based classifiers

In the last few years, the telecommunications scenario has experienced an increase in the volume of information generated, as well as in the execution of malicious activities. In order to complement Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs), data mining techniques have begun to play a fundamental role in data analysis. On the other hand, the...
