Face recognition is a biometric technique that uses a computer or machine to facilitate the recognition of human faces. The advantage of this technique is that it can detect faces without direct contact with the device. In its application, the security of face recognition data systems is still not given much attention. Therefore, this study proposes a technique for securing data stored in the face recognition system database. It implements the Viola-Jones Algorithm, the Kanade-Lucas-Tomasi Algorithm (KLT), and the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) algorithm by applying a database security algorithm using XOR encryption. Several tests and analyzes have been performed with this method. The histogram analysis results show no visual information related to encrypted images with plain images. In addition, the correlation value between the encrypted and plain images is weak, so it has high security against statistical attacks with an entropy value of around 7.9. The average time required to carry out the introduction process is 0.7896 s.

In order to improve the security and anti-interference ability of industrial control system, this paper proposes an improved industrial neural network defense method based on the PCA dimension reduction and the improved deep neural network. Firstly, the proposed method reduces the dimensionality of the industrial data using the dimension reduction theory of principal component analysis (PCA). Then the deep neural network extracts the features of the network. Finally, the softmax classifier classifies industrial data. Experiment results show that compared with unintegrated algorithm, this method achieves higher recognition accuracy and has great application potential.

IP Identification (IP ID) is an IP header field that identifies a data packet in the network to distinguish its fragments from others during the reassembly process. Random generated IP ID field could be used as a covert channel by embedding hidden bits within it. This paper uses the support vector machine (SVM) while enabling a features reduction procedure for investigating to what extend could the entropy feature of the IP ID covert channel affect the detection. Then, an entropy-based SVM is employed to evaluate the roles of the IP ID covert channel hidden bits on detection. Results show that, entropy is a distinct discrimination feature in classifying and detecting the IP ID covert channel with high accuracy. Additionally, it is found that each of the type, the number and the position of the hidden bits within the IP ID field has a specified influence on the IP ID covert channel detection accuracy.

In the multivariable fault diagnosis of industrial process, due to the existence of correlation between variables, the result of fault diagnosis will inevitably appear "smearing" effect. Although the fault diagnosis method based on the contribution of multi-dimensional reconstruction is helpful when multiple faults occur. But in order to correctly isolate all the fault variables, this method will become very inefficient due to the combination of variables. In this paper, a fault diagnosis method based on kNN and MRBC is proposed to fundamentally avoid the corresponding influence of "smearing", and a fast variable selection strategy is designed to accelerate the process of fault isolation. Finally, simulation study on a benchmark process verifies the effectiveness of the method, in comparison with the traditional method represented by FDA-based method.

This paper presents Zero-Day Attack Packet Highlighting System. Proposed system outputs zero-day attack packet information from flow extracted as result of regression inspection of packets stored in flow-based PCA. It also highlights raw data of the packet matched with rule. Also, we design communication protocols for sending and receiving data within proposed system. Purpose of the proposed system is to solve existing flow-based problems and provides users with raw data information of zero-day packets so that they can analyze raw data for the packets.

Among the different types of malware, botnets are rising as the most genuine risk against cybersecurity as they give a stage to criminal operations (e.g., Distributed Denial of Service (DDOS) attacks, malware dispersal, phishing, and click fraud and identity theft). Existing botnet detection techniques work only on specific botnet Command and Control (C&C) protocols and lack in providing early-stage botnet detection. In this paper, we propose an approach for early-stage botnet detection. The proposed approach first selects the optimal features using feature selection techniques. Next, it feeds these features to machine learning classifiers to evaluate the performance of the botnet detection. Experiments reveals that the proposed approach efficiently classifies normal and malicious traffic at an early stage. The proposed approach achieves the accuracy of 99%, True Positive Rate (TPR) of 0.99 %, and False Positive Rate (FPR) of 0.007 % and provide an efficient detection rate in comparison with the existing approach.

Image watermarking is very important phenomenon in modern society where intellectual property right of information is necessary. Considering this impending problem, there are many image watermarking methods exist in the literature each of having some key advantages and disadvantages. After summarising state-of-the-art literature survey, an optimum digital watermark technique using singular value decomposition with principle component analysis (PCA) is proposed and verified. Basically, the host image is compressed using PCA which reduces multi-dimensional data to effective low-dimensional information. In this scheme, the watermark is embedded using the discrete wavelet transformation-singular value decomposition approach. Simulation results show that the proposed method improves the system performance compared with the existing method in terms of the watermark embedding, and extraction time. Therefore, this work is valuable for image watermarking in modern life such as tracing copyright infringements and banknote authentication.

Smart home is one application of the pervasive computing branch of science. Three categories of smart homes, namely comfort, healthcare, and security. The security system is a part of smart home technology that is very important because the intensity of crime is increasing, especially in residential areas. The system will detect the face by the webcam camera if the user enters the correct password. Face recognition will be processed by the Raspberry pi 3 microcontroller with the Principal Component Analysis method using OpenCV and Python software which has outputs, namely actuators in the form of a solenoid lock door and buzzer. The test results show that the webcam can perform face detection when the password input is successful, then the buzzer actuator can turn on when the database does not match the data taken by the webcam or the test data and the solenoid door lock actuator can run if the database matches the test data taken by the sensor. webcam. The mean response time of face detection is 1.35 seconds.

Partitional Clustering Algorithm (PCA) on the Hadoop Distributed File System is to perform big data securities using the Perturbation Technique is the main idea of the proposed work. There are numerous clustering methods available that are used to categorize the information from the big data. PCA discovers the cluster based on the initial partition of the data. In this approach, it is possible to develop a security safeguarding of data that is impoverished to allow the calculations and communication. The performances were analyzed on Health Care database under the studies of various parameters like precision, accuracy, and F-score measure. The outcome of the results is to demonstrate that this method is used to decrease the complication in preserving privacy and better accuracy than that of the existing techniques.

Designing a machine learning based network intrusion detection system (IDS) with high-dimensional features can lead to prolonged classification processes. This is while low-dimensional features can reduce these processes. Moreover, classification of network traffic with imbalanced class distributions has posed a significant drawback on the performance attainable by most well-known classifiers. With the presence of imbalanced data, the known metrics may fail to provide adequate information about the performance of the classifier. This study first uses Principal Component Analysis (PCA) as a feature dimensionality reduction approach. The resulting low-dimensional features are then used to build various classifiers such as Random Forest (RF), Bayesian Network, Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) and Quadratic Discriminant Analysis (QDA) for designing an IDS. The experimental findings with low-dimensional features in binary and multi-class classification show better performance in terms of Detection Rate (DR), F-Measure, False Alarm Rate (FAR), and Accuracy. Furthermore, in this paper, we apply a Multi-Class Combined performance metric Combi ned Mc with respect to class distribution through incorporating FAR, DR, Accuracy, and class distribution parameters. In addition, we developed a uniform distribution based balancing approach to handle the imbalanced distribution of the minority class instances in the CICIDS2017 network intrusion dataset. We were able to reduce the CICIDS2017 dataset's feature dimensions from 81 to 10 using PCA, while maintaining a high accuracy of 99.6% in multi-class and binary classification.

In fault diagnosis of industrial process, there are usually more than one variable that are faulty. When multiple faults occur, the generalized reconstruction-based contribution can be helpful while traditional RBC may make mistakes. Due to the correlation between the variables, these faults usually propagate to other normal variables, which is called smearing effect. Thus, it is helpful to consider the pervious fault diagnosis results. In this paper, a data-driven fault diagnosis method which is based on generalized RBC and bayesian decision is presented. This method combines multi-dimensional RBC and bayesian decision. The proposed method improves the diagnosis capability of multiple and minor faults with greater noise. A numerical simulation example is given to show the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method.

Collaborative filtering (CF) recommender system has been widely used for its well performing in personalized recommendation, but CF recommender system is vulnerable to shilling attacks in which shilling attack profiles are injected into the system by attackers to affect recommendations. Design robust recommender system and propose attack detection methods are the main research direction to handle shilling attacks, among which unsupervised PCA is particularly effective in experiment, but if we have no information about the number of shilling attack profiles, the unsupervised PCA will be suffered. In this paper, a new unsupervised detection method which combine PCA and data complexity has been proposed to detect shilling attacks. In the proposed method, PCA is used to select suspected attack profiles, and data complexity is used to pick out the authentic profiles from suspected attack profiles. Compared with the traditional PCA, the proposed method could perform well and there is no need to determine the number of shilling attack profiles in advance.

Botnet on a mobile platform is one of the severe problems for the Internet security. It causes damages to both individual users and the economic system. Botnet detection is required to stop these damages. However, botmasters keep developing their botnets. Peer-to-peer (P2P) connection and encryption are used in the botnet communication to avoid the exposure and takedown. To tackle this problem, we propose the P2P mobile botnet detection by using communication patterns. A graph representation called "graphlet" is used to capture the natural communication patterns of a P2P mobile botnet. The graphlet-based detection does not violate the user privacy, and also effective with encrypted traffic. Furthermore, a machine learning technique with graphlet-based features can detect the P2P mobile botnet even it runs simultaneously with other applications such as Facebook, Line, Skype, YouTube, and Web. Moreover, we employ the Principal Components Analysis (PCA) to analyze graphlet's features to leverage the detection performance when the botnet coexists with dense traffic such as Web traffic. Our work focuses on the real traffic of an advanced P2P mobile botnet named "NotCompatible.C". The detection performance shows high F-measure scores of 0.93, even when sampling only 10% of traffic in a 3-minute duration.

This paper firstly defines the importance index of several types of nodes from the local and global attributes of the supply chain network, analyzes the propagation effect of the nodes after the risk is generated from the perspective of the network topology, and forms multidimensional structural attributes that describe node risk propagation capabilities of the supply chain network. Then the indicators of the structure attributes of the supply chain network are simplified based on PCA (Principal Component Analysis). Finally, a risk assessment model of node risk propagation is constructed using BP neural network. This paper also takes 4G smart phone industry chain data as an example to verify the validity of the proposed model.

Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks are a popular and inexpensive form of cyber attacks. Application layer DDoS attacks utilize legitimate application layer requests to overwhelm a web server. These attacks are a major threat to Internet applications and web services. The main goal of these attacks is to make the services unavailable to legitimate users by overwhelming the resources on a web server. They look valid in connection and protocol characteristics, which makes them difficult to detect. In this paper, we propose a detection method for the application layer DDoS attacks, which is based on user behavior anomaly detection. We extract instances of user behaviors requesting resources from HTTP web server logs. We apply the Principle Component Analysis (PCA) subspace anomaly detection method for the detection of anomalous behavior instances. Web server logs from a web server hosting a student resource portal were collected as experimental data. We also generated nine different HTTP DDoS attacks through penetration testing. Our performance results on the collected data show that using PCAsubspace anomaly detection on user behavior data can detect application layer DDoS attacks, even if they are trying to mimic a normal user's behavior at some level.

The smart grid is an electrical grid that has a duplex communication. This communication is between the utility and the consumer. Digital system, automation system, computers and control are the various systems of Smart Grid. It finds applications in a wide variety of systems. Some of its applications have been designed to reduce the risk of power system blackout. Dynamic vulnerability assessment is done to identify, quantify, and prioritize the vulnerabilities in a system. This paper presents a novel approach for classifying the data into one of the two classes called vulnerable or non-vulnerable by carrying out Dynamic Vulnerability Assessment (DVA) based on some data mining techniques such as Multichannel Singular Spectrum Analysis (MSSA), and Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and a machine learning tool such as Support Vector Machine Classifier (SVM-C) with learning algorithms that can analyze data. The developed methodology is tested in the IEEE 57 bus, where the cause of vulnerability is transient instability. The results show that data mining tools can effectively analyze the patterns of the electric signals, and SVM-C can use those patterns for analyzing the system data as vulnerable or non-vulnerable and determines System Vulnerability Status.

In order to realize the accurate positioning and recognition effectively of the analog circuit, the feature extraction of fault information is an extremely important port. This arrival based on the experimental circuit which is designed as a failure mode to pick-up the fault sample set. We have chosen two methods, one is the combination of wavelet transform and principal component analysis, the other is the factorial analysis for the fault data's feature extraction, and we also use the extreme learning machine to train and diagnose the data, to compare the performance of these two methods through the accuracy of the diagnosis. The results of the experiment shows that the data which we get from the experimental circuit, after dealing with these two methods can quickly get the fault location.

Protecting the privacy of user-identification data is fundamental to protect the information systems from attacks and vulnerabilities. Providing access to such data only to the limited and legitimate users is the key motivation for `Biometrics'. In `Biometric Systems' confirming a user's claim of his/her identity reliably, is more important than focusing on `what he/she really possesses' or `what he/she remembers'. In this paper the use of face image for biometric access is proposed using two multistage face recognition algorithms that employ biometric facial features to validate the user's claim. The proposed algorithms use standard algorithms and classifiers such as EigenFaces, PCA and LDA in stages. Performance evaluation of both proposed algorithms is carried out using two standard datasets, the Extended Yale database and AT&T database. Results using the proposed multi-stage algorithms are better than those using other standard algorithms. Current limitations and possible applications of the proposed algorithms are also discussed along, with further scope of making these robust to pose, illumination and noise variations.

This article presents results of the recognition process of acoustic fingerprints from a noise source using spectral characteristics of the signal. Principal Components Analysis (PCA) is applied to reduce the dimensionality of extracted features and then a classifier is implemented using the method of the k-nearest neighbors (KNN) to identify the pattern of the audio signal. This classifier is compared with an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) implementation. It is necessary to implement a filtering system to the acquired signals for 60Hz noise reduction generated by imperfections in the acquisition system. The methods described in this paper were used for vessel recognition.
