Feature selection is a process of identifying relevant feature subset that leads to the machine learning algorithm in a well-defined manner. In this paper, anovel ensemble feature selection approach that comprises of Relief  Attribute Evaluation and hybrid kernel-based support vector machine (HK-SVM) approach is proposed as a feature selection method for network intrusion detection system (NIDS). A Hybrid approach along with the combination of Gaussian and Polynomial methods is used as a kernel for support vector machine (SVM). The key issue is to select a feature subset that yields good accuracy at a minimal computational cost. The proposed approach is implemented and compared with classical SVM and simple kernel. Kyoto2006+, a bench mark intrusion detection dataset,is used for experimental evaluation and then observations are drawn.


Network intrusions detection is a continuous vigilant task and to efficiently analyze the traffic in the corporate network to detect network intrusions. The efficiency of the Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) performance can be improved by adopting feature selection or reduction process to suit the present day high speed real time networks. This work is focused on identifying the key features of the audit dataset used to build an efficient light-weight NIDS. The NSL KDD dataset is used in this work titled Attribute Richness Based Feature Selection (ARFS) in order to analyze its performance.The obtained results are compared with the Correlation-based Feature Selection (CFS) and Information Gain (IG) feature selection methods. The proposed feature selection method produced better detection rate comparatively.
