Abstract This study provides information on artificial immune systems. The artificial immune system is an adaptive computational system that uses models, principles, mechanisms and functions to describe and solve the problems in theoretical immunology. Its application in various fields of science is explored. The theory of natural immune systems and the key features and algorithms of artificial immune system are analyzed. The advantages and disadvantages of protection systems based on artificial immune systems are shown. The methods for malicious software detection are studied. Some works in the field of artificial immune systems are analyzed, and the problems to be solved are identified. A new algorithm is developed for the application of Bayesian method in software using artificial immune systems, and experiments are implemented. The results of the experiment are estimated to be good. The advantages and disadvantages of AIS were shown. To eliminate the disadvantages, perfect AISs should be developed to enable the software more efficient and effective.

How different is the immune system in a human from that of a mouse? Do pathogens replicate at the same rate in different species? Answers to these questions have impact on human health since multi-host pathogens that jump from animals to humans affect millions worldwide.It is not known how rates of immune response and viral dynamics vary from species to species and how they depend on species body size. Metabolic scalingtheory predicts that intracellular processes will be slower in larger animals since cellular metabolic rates are slower. We test how rates of pathogenesis and immune system response rates depend on species body size.

In particular, models had only one type of cages , they applied V-lymphocytes. The distribution and a decentralization were the second feature for using artificial immune systems. This article is devoted to creation the artificial immune system (AIS), the creation model and algorithm of IIS is considered. The model for realization of a problem is consid-ered. Accuracy of calculations is compared to other methods, especially to neural networks. The structure of a program complex is described.

The field of Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) concerns the study and development of computationally interesting abstractions of the immune system. This survey tracks the development of AIS since its inception, and then attempts to make an assessment of its usefulness, defined in terms of ‘distinctiveness’ and ‘effectiveness.’ In this paper, the standard types of AIS are examined—Negative Selection, Clonal Selection and Immune Networks—as well as a new breed of AIS, based on the immunological ‘danger theory.’ The paper concludes that all types of AIS largely satisfy the criteria outlined for being useful, but only two types of AIS satisfy both criteria with any certainty.

This chapter aims to review the state of the art in algorithms of multiobjective optimization with artificial immune systems (MOAIS). As it will be focused in the chapter, Artificial Immune Systems (AIS) have some intrinsic characteristics which make them well suited as multiobjective optimization algorithms. Following this basic idea, different implementations have been proposed in the literature. This chapter aims to provide a thorough review of the literature on multiobjective optimization algorithms based on the emulation of the immune system.

Recent years have seen a dramatic increase in the application of biologically-inspired algorithms to business problems. Applications of neural networks and evolutionary algorithms have become common. However, as yet there have been few applications of artificial immune systems (AIS), algorithms that are inspired by the workings of the natural immune system. The natural immune system can be considered as a distributed, self-organizing, classification system that operates in a dynamic environment. The mechanisms of natural immune systems, including their ability to distinguish between self and non-self, provides a rich metaphorical inspiration for the design of pattern-recognition algorithms. This chapter introduces AIS and provides an example of how an immune algorithm can be used to develop a classification system for predicting corporate failure. The developed system displays good classification accuracy out-of-sample, up to two years prior to failure.

SummaryThe immune system is an impressive information processing system with many appealing properties for solving problems. Artificial immune systems are a paradigm inspired by the immune system and are used for solving computational and information processing problems. In this paper, we outline two different immune-inspired approaches typically used for IT-security problems. Specifically, we present one of the first proposed immune inspired approaches for network intrusion detection, this is then complimented with an overview of recent investigations on the latest immunological theories and how they may be exploited in IT-security. We then present an artificial immune system concept for database security which encompasses issues such as confidentiality of database information and prevention of privacy-preserving data mining.

Artificial immune system is inspired by the natural immune system for solving computational problems. The immunological principles that are primarily used in artificial immune systems are the clonal selection principle, the immune network theory, and the negative selection mechanism. These principles have been applied in anomaly detection, pattern recognition, computer and network security, dynamic environments and learning, robotics, data analysis, optimization, scheduling, and timetabling. This paper describes how these three immunological principles were adapted by previous researchers in their artificial immune system models and algorithms. Finally, the applications of various artificial immune systems to various domains are summarized as a time-line.

The immune system is highly distributed, highly adaptive, self-organising in nature, maintains a memory of past encounters and has the ability to continually learn about new encounters. From a computational viewpoint, the immune system has much to offer by way of inspiration. Recently there has been growing interest in the use of the natural immune system as inspiration for the creation of novel approaches to computational problems; this field of research is referred to as Immunological Computation (IC) or Artificial Immune Systems (AIS). This chapter describes the physiology of the immune system and provides a general introduction to Artificial Immune Systems. Significant applications that are relevant to data mining, in particular in the areas of machine learning and data analysis, are discussed in detail. Attention is paid both to the salient characteristics of the application and the details of the algorithms. This chapter concludes with an evaluation of the current and future contributions of Artificial Immune Systems in data mining.
