AbstractSupport vector machine (SVM) is one of the effective classifiers in the field of network intrusion detection; however, some important information related to classification might be lost in the reprocessing. In this paper, we propose a granular classifier based on entropy clustering method and support vector machine to overcome this limitation. The overall design of classifier is realized with the aid of if-then rules that consists of a premise part and conclusion part. The premise part realized by the entropy clustering method is used here to address the problem of a possible curse of dimensionality, while the conclusion part realized by support vector machines is utilized to build local models. In contrast to the conventional SVM, the proposed entropy clustering-based granular classifiers (ECGC) can be regarded as an entropy-based support function machine. Moreover, an opposition-based genetic algorithm is proposed to optimize the design parameters of the granular classifiers. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the ECGC when compared with some classical models reported in the literatures.
