With the ever-rising threat to security, multiple industries are always in search of safer communication techniques both in rest and transit. Multiple security institutions agree that any systems security can be modeled around three major concepts: Confidentiality, Availability, and Integrity. We try to reduce the holes in these concepts by developing a Deep Learning based Steganography technique. In our study, we have seen, data compression has to be at the heart of any sound steganography system. In this paper, we have shown that it is possible to compress and encode data efficiently to solve critical problems of steganography. The deep learning technique, which comprises an auto-encoder with Convolutional Neural Network as its building block, not only compresses the secret file but also learns how to hide the compressed data in the cover file efficiently. The proposed techniques can encode secret files of the same size as of cover, or in some sporadic cases, even larger files can be encoded. We have also shown that the same model architecture can theoretically be applied to any file type. Finally, we show that our proposed technique surreptitiously evades all popular steganalysis techniques.

Email has sustained to be an essential part of our lives and as a means for better communication on the internet. The challenge pertains to the spam emails residing a large amount of space and bandwidth. The defect of state-of-the-art spam filtering methods like misclassification of genuine emails as spam (false positives) is the rising challenge to the internet world. Depending on the classification techniques, literature provides various algorithms for the classification of email spam. This paper tactics to develop a novel spam detection model for improved cybersecurity. The proposed model involves several phases like dataset acquisition, feature extraction, optimal feature selection, and detection. Initially, the benchmark dataset of email is collected that involves both text and image datasets. Next, the feature extraction is performed using two sets of features like text features and visual features. In the text features, Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency (TF-IDF) is extracted. For the visual features, color correlogram and Gray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM) are determined. Since the length of the extracted feature vector seems to the long, the optimal feature selection process is done. The optimal feature selection is performed by a new meta-heuristic algorithm called Fitness Oriented Levy Improvement-based Dragonfly Algorithm (FLI-DA). Once the optimal features are selected, the detection is performed by the hybrid learning technique that is composed of two deep learning approaches named Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) and Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). For improving the performance of existing deep learning approaches, the number of hidden neurons of RNN and CNN is optimized by the same FLI-DA. Finally, the optimized hybrid learning technique having CNN and RNN classifies the data into spam and ham. The experimental outcomes show the ability of the proposed method to perform the spam email classification based on improved deep learning.

Solar cells may possess defects during the manufacturing process in photovoltaic (PV) industries. To precisely evaluate the effectiveness of solar PV modules, manufacturing defects are required to be identified. Conventional defect inspection in industries mainly depends on manual defect inspection by highly skilled inspectors, which may still give inconsistent, subjective identification results. In order to automatize the visual defect inspection process, an automatic cell segmentation technique and a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based defect detection system with pseudo-colorization of defects is designed in this paper. High-resolution Electroluminescence (EL) images of single-crystalline silicon (sc-Si) solar PV modules are used in our study for the detection of defects and their quality inspection. Firstly, an automatic cell segmentation methodology is developed to extract cells from an EL image. Secondly, defect detection can be actualized by CNN-based defect detector and can be visualized with pseudo-colors. We used contour tracing to accurately localize the panel region and a probabilistic Hough transform to identify gridlines and busbars on the extracted panel region for cell segmentation. A cell-based defect identification system was developed using state-of-the-art deep learning in CNNs. The detected defects are imposed with pseudo-colors for enhancing defect visualization using K-means clustering. Our automatic cell segmentation methodology can segment cells from an EL image in about 2.71 s. The average segmentation errors along the x-direction and y-direction are only 1.6 pixels and 1.4 pixels, respectively. The defect detection approach on segmented cells achieves 99.8% accuracy. Along with defect detection, the defect regions on a cell are furnished with pseudo-colors to enhance the visualization.

Device-free localization (DFL) has become a hot topic in the paradigm of the Internet of Things. Traditional localization methods are focused on locating users with attached wearable devices. This involves privacy concerns and physical discomfort especially to users that need to wear and activate those devices daily. DFL makes use of the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) to characterize the user’s location based on their influence on wireless signals. Existing work utilizes statistical features extracted from wireless signals. However, some features may not perform well in different environments. They need to be manually designed for a specific application. Thus, data processing is an important step towards producing robust input data for the classification process. This paper presents experimental procedures using the deep learning approach to automatically learn discriminative features and classify the user’s location. Extensive experiments performed in an indoor laboratory environment demonstrate that the approach can achieve 84.2% accuracy compared to the other basic machine learning algorithms.
