In pedestrian detection methods, their high accuracy detection rates are always obtained at the cost of a large amount of false pedestrians. In order to overcome this problem, the authors propose an accurate pedestrian detection system based on two machine learning methods: cascade AdaBoost detector and random vector functional-link net. During the offline training phase, the parameters of a cascade AdaBoost detector and random vector functional-link net are trained by standard dataset. These candidates, extracted by the strategy of a multiscale sliding window, are normalized to be standard scale and verified by the cascade AdaBoost detector and random vector functional-link net on the online phase. Only those candidates with high confidence can pass the validation. The proposed system is more accurate than other single machine learning algorithms with fewer false pedestrians, which has been confirmed in simulation experiment on four datasets.

Detection and mitigation of modern malware are critical for the normal operation of an organisation. Traditional defence mechanisms are becoming increasingly ineffective due to the techniques used by attackers such as code obfuscation, metamorphism, and polymorphism, which strengthen the resilience of malware. In this context, the development of adaptive, more effective malware detection methods has been identified as an urgent requirement for protecting the IT infrastructure against such threats, and for ensuring security. In this paper, we investigate an alternative method for malware detection that is based on N-grams and machine learning. We use a dynamic analysis technique to extract an Indicator of Compromise (IOC) for malicious files, which are represented using N-grams. The paper also proposes TF-IDF as a novel alternative used to identify the most significant N-grams features for training a machine learning algorithm. Finally, the paper evaluates the proposed technique using various supervised machine-learning algorithms. The results show that Logistic Regression, with a score of 98.4%, provides the best classification accuracy when compared to the other classifiers used.

Android Malware

Smartphone usage is nearly ubiquitous worldwide, and Android provides the leading open-source operating system, retaining the most significant market share and active user population of all open-source operating systems. Hence, malicious actors target the Android operating system to capitalize on this consumer reliance and vulnerabilities present in the system. Hackers often use confidential user data to exploit users for advertising, extortion, and theft. Notably, most Android malware detection tools depend on conventional machine-learning algorithms; hence, they lose the benefits of metaheuristic optimization. Here, we introduce a novel detection system based on optimizing the random vector functional link (RVFL) using the artificial Jellyfish Search (JS) optimizer following dimensional reduction of Android application features. JS is used to determine the optimal configurations of RVFL to improve classification performance. RVFL+JS minimizes the runtime of the execution of the optimized models with the best performance metrics, based on a dataset consisting of 11,598 multi-class applications and 471 static and dynamic features.

With the gradual increase of malicious mining, a large amount of computing resources are wasted, and precious power resources are consumed maliciously. Many detection methods to detect malicious mining behavior have been proposed by scholars, but most of which have pure defects and need to collect sensitive data (such as memory and register data) from the detected host. In order to solve these problems, a malicious mining detection system based on network timing signals is proposed. When capturing network traffic, the system does not need to know the contents of data packets but only collects network flow timing signals, which greatly protects the privacy of users. Besides, we use the campus network to carry out experiments, collect a large amount of network traffic data generated by mining behavior, and carry out feature extraction and data cleaning. We also collect traffic data of normal network behavior and combine them after labeling. Then, we use four machine learning algorithms for classification. The final results show that our detection system can effectively distinguish the normal network traffic and the network traffic generated by mining behavior.

Human fall due to an accident can cause heavy injuries which may lead to a major medical issue for elderly people. With the introduction of new advanced technologies in the healthcare sector, an alarm system can be developed to detect a human fall. This paper summarizes various human fall detection methods and techniques, through observing people’s daily routine activities. A human fall detection system can be designed using one of these technologies: wearable based device, context-aware based and vision based methods. In this paper, we discuss different machine learning models designed to detect human fall using these techniques. These models have already been designed to discriminate fall from activities of daily living (ADL) like walking, moving, sitting, standing, lying and bending. This paper is aimed at analyzing the effectiveness of these machine learning algorithms for the detection of human fall.

Security in IoT networks is currently mandatory, due to the high amount of data that has to be handled. These systems are vulnerable to several cybersecurity attacks, which are increasing in number and sophistication. Due to this reason, new intrusion detection techniques have to be developed, being as accurate as possible for these scenarios. Intrusion detection systems based on machine learning algorithms have already shown a high performance in terms of accuracy. This research proposes the study and evaluation of several preprocessing techniques based on traffic categorization for a machine learning neural network algorithm. This research uses for its evaluation two benchmark datasets, namely UGR16 and the UNSW-NB15, and one of the most used datasets, KDD99. The preprocessing techniques were evaluated in accordance with scalar and normalization functions. All of these preprocessing models were applied through different sets of characteristics based on a categorization composed by four groups of features: basic connection features, content characteristics, statistical characteristics and finally, a group which is composed by traffic-based features and connection direction-based traffic characteristics. The objective of this research is to evaluate this categorization by using various data preprocessing techniques to obtain the most accurate model. Our proposal shows that, by applying the categorization of network traffic and several preprocessing techniques, the accuracy can be enhanced by up to 45%. The preprocessing of a specific group of characteristics allows for greater accuracy, allowing the machine learning algorithm to correctly classify these parameters related to possible attacks.

BACKGROUND There is a serious threat from fake news spreading in technologically advanced societies, including those in the Arab world, via deceptive machine-generated text. In the last decade, Arabic fake news identification has gained increased attention, and numerous detection approaches have revealed some ability to find fake news throughout various data sources. Nevertheless, many existing approaches overlook recent advancements in fake news detection, explicitly to incorporate machine learning algorithms system. OBJECTIVE Tebyan project aims to address the problem of fake news by developing a fake news detection system that employs machine learning algorithms to detect whether the news is fake or real in the context of Arab world. METHODS The project went through numerous phases using an iterative methodology to develop the system. This study analysis incorporated numerous stages using an iterative method to develop the system of misinformation and contextualize fake news regarding society's information. It consists of implementing the machine learning algorithms system using Python to collect genuine and fake news datasets. The study also assesses how information-exchanging behaviors can minimize and find the optimal source of authentication of the emergent news through system testing approaches. RESULTS The study revealed that the main deliverable of this project is the Tebyan system in the community, which allows the user to ensure the credibility of news in Arabic newspapers. It showed that the SVM classifier, on average, exhibited the highest performance results, resulting in 90% in every performance measure of sources. Moreover, the results indicate the second-best algorithm is the linear SVC since it resulted in 90% in performance measure with the societies' typical type of fake information. CONCLUSIONS The study concludes that conducting a system with machine learning algorithms using Python programming language allows the rapid measures of the users' perception to comment and rate the credibility result and subscribing to news email services.
