With the development of the fifth-generation networks and artificial intelligence technologies, new threats and challenges have emerged to wireless communication system, especially in cybersecurity. In this paper, we offer a review on attack detection methods involving strength of deep learning techniques. Specifically, we firstly summarize fundamental problems of network security and attack detection and introduce several successful related applications using deep learning structure. On the basis of categorization on deep learning methods, we pay special attention to attack detection methods built on different kinds of architectures, such as autoencoders, generative adversarial network, recurrent neural network, and convolutional neural network. Afterwards, we present some benchmark datasets with descriptions and compare the performance of representing approaches to show the current working state of attack detection methods with deep learning structures. Finally, we summarize this paper and discuss some ways to improve the performance of attack detection under thoughts of utilizing deep learning structures.

Drones are becoming increasingly popular not only for recreational purposes but in day-to-day applications in engineering, medicine, logistics, security and others. In addition to their useful applications, an alarming concern in regard to the physical infrastructure security, safety and privacy has arisen due to the potential of their use in malicious activities. To address this problem, we propose a novel solution that automates the drone detection and identification processes using a drone’s acoustic features with different deep learning algorithms. However, the lack of acoustic drone datasets hinders the ability to implement an effective solution. In this paper, we aim to fill this gap by introducing a hybrid drone acoustic dataset composed of recorded drone audio clips and artificially generated drone audio samples using a state-of-the-art deep learning technique known as the Generative Adversarial Network. Furthermore, we examine the effectiveness of using drone audio with different deep learning algorithms, namely, the Convolutional Neural Network, the Recurrent Neural Network and the Convolutional Recurrent Neural Network in drone detection and identification. Moreover, we investigate the impact of our proposed hybrid dataset in drone detection. Our findings prove the advantage of using deep learning techniques for drone detection and identification while confirming our hypothesis on the benefits of using the Generative Adversarial Networks to generate real-like drone audio clips with an aim of enhancing the detection of new and unfamiliar drones.

Borehole image logs are used to identify the presence and orientation of fractures, both natural and induced, found in reservoir intervals. The contrast in electrical or acoustic properties of the rock matrix and fluid-filled fractures is sufficiently large enough that sub-resolution features can be detected by these image logging tools. The resolution of these image logs is based on the design and operation of the tools, and generally is in the millimeter per pixel range. Hence the quantitative measurement of actual width remains problematic. An artificial intelligence (AI) -based workflow combines the statistical information obtained from a Machine-Learning (ML) segmentation process with a multiple-layer neural network that defines a Deep Learning process that enhances fractures in a borehole image. These new images allow for a more robust analysis of fracture widths, especially those that are sub-resolution. The images from a BHTV log were first segmented into rock and fluid-filled fractures using a ML-segmentation tool that applied multiple image processing filters that captured information to describe patterns in fracture-rock distribution based on nearest-neighbor behavior. The robust ML analysis was trained by users to identify these two components over a short interval in the well, and then the regression model-based coefficients applied to the remaining log. Based on the training, each pixel was assigned a probability value between 1.0 (being a fracture) and 0.0 (pure rock), with most of the pixels assigned one of these two values. Intermediate probabilities represented pixels on the edge of rock-fracture interface or the presence of one or more sub-resolution fractures within the rock. The probability matrix produced a map or image of the distribution of probabilities that determined whether a given pixel in the image was a fracture or partially filled with a fracture. The Deep Learning neural network was based on a Conditional Generative Adversarial Network (cGAN) approach where the probability map was first encoded and combined with a noise vector that acted as a seed for diverse feature generation. This combination was used to generate new images that represented the BHTV response. The second layer of the neural network, the adversarial or discriminator portion, determined whether the generated images were representative of the actual BHTV by comparing the generated images with actual images from the log and producing an output probability of whether it was real or fake. This probability was then used to train the generator and discriminator models that were then applied to the entire log. Several scenarios were run with different probability maps. The enhanced BHTV images brought out fractures observed in the core photos that were less obvious in the original BTHV log through enhanced continuity and improved resolution on fracture widths.

Deep learning (DL), which is originated from an artificial neural network (ANN), is one of the major technologies of today's smart cybersecurity systems or policies to function in an intelligent manner. Popular deep learning techniques, such as Multi-layer Perceptron (MLP), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN or ConvNet), Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) or Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Self-organizing Map (SOM), Auto-Encoder (AE), Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM), Deep Belief Networks (DBN), Generative Adversarial Network (GAN), Deep Transfer Learning (DTL or Deep TL), Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL or Deep RL), or their ensembles and hybrid approaches can be used to intelligently tackle the diverse cybersecurity issues. In this paper, we aim to present a comprehensive overview from the perspective of these neural networks and deep learning techniques according to today's diverse needs. We also discuss the applicability of these techniques in various cybersecurity tasks such as intrusion detection, identification of malware or botnets, phishing, predicting cyber-attacks, e.g. denial of service (DoS), fraud detection or cyber-anomalies, etc. Finally, we highlight several research issues and future directions within the scope of our study in the field. Overall, the ultimate goal of this paper is to serve as a reference point and guidelines for the academia and professionals in the cyber industries, especially from the deep learning point of view.

In recent years, deep neural networks have made significant progress in image classification, object detection and face recognition. However, they still have the problem of misclassification when facing adversarial examples. In order to address security issue and improve the robustness of the neural network, we propose a novel defense network based on generative adversarial network (GAN). The distribution of clean - and adversarial examples are matched to solve the mentioned problem. This guides the network to remove invisible noise accurately, and restore the adversarial example to a clean example to achieve the effect of defense. In addition, in order to maintain the classification accuracy of clean examples and improve the fidelity of neural network, we input clean examples into proposed network for denoising. Our method can effectively remove the noise of the adversarial examples, so that the denoised adversarial examples can be correctly classified. In this paper, extensive experiments are conducted on five benchmark datasets, namely MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, CIFAR10, CIFAR100 and ImageNet. Moreover, six mainstream attack methods are adopted to test the robustness of our defense method including FGSM, PGD, MIM, JSMA, CW and Deep-Fool. Results show that our method has strong defensive capabilities against the tested attack methods, which confirms the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Deep learning has made significant progress in the field of automatic music generation. At present, the research on music generation via deep learning can be divided into two categories: predictive models and generative models. However, both categories have the same problems that need to be resolved. First, the length of the music must be determined artificially prior to generation. Second, although the convolutional neural network (CNN) is unexpectedly superior to the recurrent neural network (RNN), CNN still has several disadvantages. This paper proposes a conditional generative adversarial network approach using an inception model (INCO-GAN), which enables the generation of complete variable-length music automatically. By adding a time distribution layer that considers sequential data, CNN considers the time relationship in a manner similar to RNN. In addition, the inception model obtains richer features, which improves the quality of the generated music. In experiments conducted, the music generated by the proposed method and that by human composers were compared. High cosine similarity of up to 0.987 was achieved between the frequency vectors, indicating that the music generated by the proposed method is very similar to that created by a human composer.

Abstract. Weather radar echo is one of the fundamental data for meteorological workers to weather systems identification and classification. Through the technique of weather radar echo extrapolation, the future short-term weather conditions can be predicted and severe convection storms can be warned. However, traditional extrapolation methods cannot offer accurate enough extrapolation results since their modeling capacity is limited, the recent deep learning based methods make some progress but still remains a problem of blurry prediction when making deeper extrapolation, which may due to they choose the mean square error as their loss function and that will lead to losing echo details. To address this problem and make a more realistic and accurate extrapolation, we propose a deep learning model called Adversarial Extrapolation Neural Network (AENN), which is a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) structure and consist of a conditional generator and two discriminators, echo-frame discriminator and echo-sequence discriminator. The generator and discriminators are trained alternately in an adversarial way to make the final extrapolation results be realistic and accurate. To evaluate the model, we conduct experiments on extrapolating 0.5h, 1h, and 1.5h imminent future echoes, the results show that our proposed AENN can achieve the expected effect and outperforms other models significantly, which has a powerful potential application value for short-term weather forecasting.

Colon cancer is thought about as the third most regularly identified cancer after Brest and lung cancer. Most colon cancers are adenocarcinomas developing from adenomatous polyps, grow on the intima of the colon. The standard procedure for polyp detection is colonoscopy, where the success of the standard colonoscopy depends on the colonoscopist experience and other environmental factors. Nonetheless, throughout colonoscopy procedures, a considerable number (8-37%) of polyps are missed due to human mistakes, and these missed polyps are the prospective reason for colorectal cancer cells. In the last few years, many research groups developed deep learning-based computer-aided (CAD) systems that recommended many techniques for automated polyp detection, localization, and segmentation. Still, accurate polyp detection, segmentation is required to minimize polyp miss out rates. This paper suggested a Super-Resolution Generative Adversarial Network (SRGAN) assisted Encoder-Decoder network for fully automated colon polyp segmentation from colonoscopic images. The proposed deep learning model incorporates the SRGAN in the up-sampling process to achieve more accurate polyp segmentation. We examined our model on the publicly available benchmark datasets CVC-ColonDB and Warwick- QU. The model accomplished a dice score of 0.948 on the CVC-ColonDB dataset, surpassed the recently advanced state-of-the-art (SOTA) techniques. When it is evaluated on the Warwick-QU dataset, it attains a Dice Score of 0.936 on part A and 0.895 on Part B. Our model showed more accurate results for sessile and smaller-sized polyps.
