With the increased use of the Internet, unauthorized access has increased, allowing malicious users to hack networks and carry out malicious activities. One of the essential modern approaches in today's cybersecurity efforts is the limitation of access by suspect users. In this study, the approach toward real-time intrusion detection was to consider behavioral patterns of past users on the network. We classified the users as two categories: intervention and non-intervention, and employed the machine learning techniques Artificial Neural Networks [ANN], Support Vector Machines [SVM], and Decision Trees [DT]. The Decision Trees model was chosen as it had a mature capability concerning complex pattern recognition and an enhancement capability of the intrusion detection systems. The efficiency of these algorithms is examined via the key performance metrics: confusion matrix, F1-score, and Area Under the Curve [AUC]. Decision Tree, which came up as the best model for both the training and testing phases, produced an outstanding F1-score of 99.96% and AUC score of 99.93% in the testing phase. SVM and ANN gave good results; the F1 scores of SVM and ANN in the testing phase were 92.76% and 93.33%, while the AUC was 90.57% and 94.78%, respectively. This research will enlighten us on the influence of machine learning on the scope of intrusion detection, fostering more development efforts toward more responsive and dynamic intrusion detection systems. The comparative evaluation of these models will help in providing vital information for the further enhancement of cybersecurity strategies, ensuring better defenses against these ever-evolving cyber threats.

Ahmed Rabea , Mohamed G. Abdelfattah , Abeer T. Khalil , Ali E. Takieldeen

Chosen plaintext attacks (CPA) pose a significant security risk to encryption algorithms. However, it can be difficult to perform such an attack without direct access to the encryption process. This paper introduces a new cryptoanalysis method that uses hidden CPA to analyze image encryption schemes based on substitution boxes (S-boxes) Unlike traditional CPA methods, the proposed algorithm does not require that they can directly into the encryption process. Instead, a hidden attack vector is embedded in the natural host image to reduce the risk of attack detection. By asking the owner of the encryption algorithm to encrypt this encryption image and provide a cipher image, the input vector can be compared with its encrypted counterpart This can have an effective S-box and break encryption the algorithm, which does not interact directly with the encryption process. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can completely recover cipher images in cascading S-box encryption schemes, regardless of the number of S-boxes used. Additionally, it conceals the CPA vector within the host image imperceptibly, achieving a high PSNR of 49.47 dB, indicating minimal visual distortion. Furthermore, our CPA significantly outperforms existing techniques in speed, recovering a  grayscale image in just 1.2 seconds. This method provides a simple yet effective cryptanalysis tool to evaluate the security of such image encryption schemes against CPAs.

Since heterogeneous wireless sensor networks consist of sensor nodes of varying capacity and energy-constrained, effective routing techniques are essential to ensure the proper functioning of the systems. Most traditional routing techniques fail to dynamically adjust to varying network conditions, leading to ineffective use of energy and poor performance. Therefore, deep Q-Networks implementation of reinforcement learning provides a beneficial approach to the problem due to adaptive routing decisions depending on the environmental signals and systems’ performance. Therefore, the suggested approach integrates Deep Q-Network into the data routing framework for different Wireless Sensor Networks to improve energy-efficiency and ensure data delivery. The DQN agent is designed to pick routing functions that maximize total rewards which depend on energy consumption, packet delivery, and network stability. Hence, the decentralized learning allows each sensor node to develop its routing policy based on the local environment under the interactions with their neighbors. Therefore, the approach promotes the ability to adapt and learn, crucial for changing network conditions. Thus, extensive simulation was conducted to assess the applicability of the DQN-based routing for different WSNs, proving the significant reducing of energy consumption compared to traditional routing approaches with an average of 25% regardless of the network formation and traffic conditions . This approach also demonstrates lower packet loss of 15%, revealing enhanced data transfer reliability . In particular, the existing on demand routing protocols, only forward the request that arrives first from each route discovery process. The attacker exploits this property of the operation of route discovery. The network lifetime was extended by 30% showing growing energy efficiency for a long-term run. In general, the integration of Deep Q-Networks into data routing provides an excellent opportunity to improve energy-efficiency in different types of wireless sensor networks. Hence, the proposed approach effectively optimizes the routing solutions in real-time, using adaptive lenience, also showing enhancing data delivery, and improving the systems’ lifetime. Hence, the presented results prove the capability of reinforcement learning methods to address the growing challenges of WSNs and leave space for further research in autonomous WSN improvement.

Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) represent a crucial component of intelligent transportation systems (ITS), enabling vehicles to communicate with each other and with roadside infrastructure. Predicting traffic congestion in VANETs is essential for enhancing road safety, optimizing traffic flow, and improving overall transportation efficiency. Traditional machine learning methods have shown promise in this domain; however, they often fall short in handling the complex, high-dimensional data typical of VANETs. To address these challenges, this study employs Extreme Deep Learning Machines (EDRLM), an advanced deep learning technique, for traffic congestion prediction. The EDRLM framework leverages the strengths of deep neural networks and extreme learning machines, offering a robust and scalable solution for processing the dynamic and heterogeneous data in VANETs. By integrating feature extraction, selection, and prediction into a unified model, EDRLM can capture intricate patterns and temporal dependencies within traffic data. The proposed model is trained and validated using real-world VANET datasets, incorporating various traffic parameters such as vehicle speed, density, and inter-vehicular distances. Our experimental results demonstrate that EDRLM outperforms conventional machine learning algorithms in terms of prediction accuracy, computational efficiency, and robustness to noise and missing data. The model's ability to provide timely and precise congestion predictions can facilitate proactive traffic management strategies, including dynamic routing and adaptive traffic signal control, ultimately leading to reduced travel times and enhanced road safety. This study underscores the potential of EDRLM in transforming traffic management in VANETs, paving the way for more intelligent and adaptive ITS solutions.

Automatic detection of a medical disease is a need of the hour as it helps doctors diagnose diseases and provide fast medical reports. COVID-19 is a deadly disease for which an automated detection system may be helpful. This study proposes a unique hybrid deep learning model, COVIDet, based on CNN and the speeded-up robust features (SURF) extraction approach to diagnose COVID-19 using chest x-ray images. SURF is utilized in this work to extract features, and the output is then transferred to a 25-layer CNN for detection using the extracted features. This investigation employed 4623 COVID-19 positive X-ray pictures or 8055 total. The suggested hybrid model also contrasts with the study's VGG19, Resnet50, Inception, Xception, and traditional CNN models. The proposed model had a 98.01% accuracy, a 97.03% F1-score, a 98.65% sensitivity, a 99% precision, and a 95.65% specificity. The proposed model can be further improved when more datasets are available and can help doctors to diagnose patients quickly and efficiently. Using chest X-ray pictures, a secured web application is also developed to identify COVID-19. The user sends the application a chest X-ray image, and in return, it determines whether an individual is COVID-19 positive or not, cutting down on testing time.

Leonso Dagoberto Torres Torres , Milena Elizabeth Alvarez Tapia , Paul Orlando Piray Rodríguez , Aymuxammedova Amina Kakajanovna

The authors suggest a new approach to create a composite index by fusing of information as well as applying Shannon Entropy but ready under one challenge that exists when it comes to understanding the complex nature of the exercising data and that is integrating information from different sources that are distinct and provide different facets of an estimation into one single best. In that sense, the modern world of information system is one which has to work with data which is in most cases erroneous and sometimes even contradictory, then the perspective of fusing at such information in a fruitful manner becomes very important. However, such information is not always available as it is only after the uncertainty of the relevant data has been difficult to make optimal use of decision making ability of a model. This paper goes some way to assisting with that issue and describes a framework that involves multiple information sources as well as how information entropy models the data uncertainty. The method put forward in the study employs the integration of information fusion with the application of Shannon entropy computation to come up with a composite index that best represents the particular system of interest in terms of its intricacy and the amount of uncertainty associated with it. Furthermore, the application of this composite index has practical implications in various areas, such as risk management, business decision-making and public policy evaluation, where precision in information integration is crucial to achieve effective results.
