Ren, Lijuan, Wang, Tao, Seklouli, Aicha Sekhari, Zhang, Haiqing, Bouras, Abdelaziz.  2022.  Missing Values for Classification of Machine Learning in Medical data. 2022 5th International Conference on Artificial Intelligence and Big Data (ICAIBD). :101—106.
Missing values are an unavoidable problem for classification tasks of machine learning in medical data. With the rapid development of the medical system, large scale medical data is increasing. Missing values increase the difficulty of mining hidden but useful information in these medical datasets. Deletion and imputation methods are the most popular methods for dealing with missing values. Existing studies ignored to compare and discuss the deletion and imputation methods of missing values under the row missing rate and the total missing rate. Meanwhile, they rarely used experiment data sets that are mixed-type and large scale. In this work, medical data sets of various sizes and mixed-type are used. At the same time, performance differences of deletion and imputation methods are compared under the MCAR (Missing Completely At Random) mechanism in the baseline task using LR (Linear Regression) and SVM (Support Vector Machine) classifiers for classification with the same row and total missing rates. Experimental results show that under the MCAR missing mechanism, the performance of two types of processing methods is related to the size of datasets and missing rates. As the increasing of missing rate, the performance of two types for processing missing values decreases, but the deletion method decreases faster, and the imputation methods based on machine learning have more stable and better classification performance on average. In addition, small data sets are easily affected by processing methods of missing values.

Bhati, Akhilesh, Bouras, Abdelaziz, Ahmed Qidwai, Uvais, Belhi, Abdelhak.  2020.  Deep Learning Based Identification of DDoS Attacks in Industrial Application. 2020 Fourth World Conference on Smart Trends in Systems, Security and Sustainability (WorldS4). :190–196.
Denial of Service (DoS) attacks are very common type of computer attack in the world of internet today. Automatically detecting such type of DDoS attack packets & dropping them before passing through is the best prevention method. Conventional solution only monitors and provide the feedforward solution instead of the feedback machine-based learning. A Design of Deep neural network has been suggested in this paper. In this approach, high level features are extracted for representation and inference of the dataset. Experiment has been conducted based on the ISCX dataset for year 2017, 2018 and CICDDoS2019 and program has been developed in Matlab R17b using Wireshark.

Kubler, Sylvain, Robert, Jérémy, Hefnawy, Ahmed, Cherifi, Chantal, Bouras, Abdelaziz, Främling, Kary.  2016.  IoT-based Smart Parking System for Sporting Event Management. Proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Mobile and Ubiquitous Systems: Computing, Networking and Services. :104–114.

By connecting devices, people, vehicles and infrastructures everywhere in a city, governments and their partners can improve community wellbeing and other economic and financial aspects (e.g., cost and energy savings). Nonetheless, smart cities are complex ecosystems that comprise many different stakeholders (network operators, managed service providers, logistic centers...) who must work together to provide the best services and unlock the commercial potential of the IoT. This is one of the major challenges that faces today's smart city movement, and more generally the IoT as a whole. Indeed, while new smart connected objects hit the market every day, they mostly feed "vertical silos" (e.g., vertical apps, siloed apps...) that are closed to the rest of the IoT, thus hampering developers to produce new added value across multiple platforms. Within this context, the contribution of this paper is twofold: (i) present the EU vision and ongoing activities to overcome the problem of vertical silos; (ii) introduce recent IoT standards used as part of a recent Horizon 2020 IoT project to address this problem. The implementation of those standards for enhanced sporting event management in a smart city/government context (FIFA World Cup 2022) is developed, presented, and evaluated as a proof-of-concept.
