The rapid growth of demand for transportation, both for people and goods, as well as the massive accumulation of population in urban centers has augmented the need for the development of smart transport systems. One of the needs that have arisen is to efficiently monitor and evaluate driving behavior, so as to increase safety, provide alarms, and avoid accidents. Capitalizing on the evolution of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), the development of intelligent vehicles and platforms in this domain is getting more feasible than ever. Nowadays, vehicles, as well as highways, are equipped with sensors that collect a variety of data, such as speed, acceleration, fuel consumption, direction, and more. The methodology presented in this paper combines both advanced machine learning algorithms and open-source based tools to correlate different data flows originating from vehicles. Particularly, the data gathered from different vehicles are processed and analyzed with the utilization of machine learning techniques in order to detect abnormalities in driving behavior. Results from different suitable techniques are presented and compared, using an extensive real-world dataset containing field measurements. The results feature the application of both supervised univariate anomaly detection and unsupervised multivariate anomaly detection methods in the same dataset.

Malware is the most serious security threat, which possibly targets billions of devices like personal computers, smartphones, etc. across the world. Malware classification and detection is a challenging task due to the targeted, zero-day, and stealthy nature of advanced and new malwares. The traditional signature detection methods like antivirus software were effective for detecting known malwares. At present, there are various solutions for detection of such unknown malwares employing feature-based machine learning algorithms. Machine learning techniques detect known malwares effectively but are not optimal and show a low accuracy rate for unknown malwares. This chapter explores a novel deep learning model called deep dilated residual network model for malware image classification. The proposed model showed a higher accuracy of 98.50% and 99.14% on Kaggle Malimg and BIG 2015 datasets, respectively. The new malwares can be handled in real-time with minimal human interaction using the proposed deep residual model.

Plant stresses have been monitored using the imaging or spectrometry of plant leaves in the visible (red-green-blue or RGB), near-infrared (NIR), infrared (IR), and ultraviolet (UV) wavebands, often augmented by fluorescence imaging or fluorescence spectrometry. Imaging at multiple specific wavelengths (multi-spectral imaging) or across a wide range of wavelengths (hyperspectral imaging) can provide exceptional information on plant stress and subsequent diseases. Digital cameras, thermal cameras, and optical filters have become available at a low cost in recent years, while hyperspectral cameras have become increasingly more compact and portable. Furthermore, smartphone cameras have dramatically improved in quality, making them a viable option for rapid, on-site stress detection. Due to these developments in imaging technology, plant stresses can be monitored more easily using handheld and field-deployable methods. Recent advances in machine learning algorithms have allowed for images and spectra to be analyzed and classified in a fully automated and reproducible manner, without the need for complicated image or spectrum analysis methods. This review will highlight recent advances in portable (including smartphone-based) detection methods for biotic and abiotic stresses, discuss data processing and machine learning techniques that can produce results for stress identification and classification, and suggest future directions towards the successful translation of these methods into practical use.

A webshell is a command execution environment in the form of web pages. It is often used by attackers as a backdoor tool for web server operations. Accurately detecting webshells is of great significance to web server protection. Most security products detect webshells based on feature-matching methods—matching input scripts against pre-built malicious code collections. The feature-matching method has a low detection rate for obfuscated webshells. However, with the help of machine learning algorithms, webshells can be detected more efficiently and accurately. In this paper, we propose a new PHP webshell detection model, the NB-Opcode (naïve Bayes and opcode sequence) model, which is a combination of naïve Bayes classifiers and opcode sequences. Through experiments and analysis on a large number of samples, the experimental results show that the proposed method could effectively detect a range of webshells. Compared with the traditional webshell detection methods, this method improves the efficiency and accuracy of webshell detection.

Many research works and official reports approve that irresponsible driving behavior on the road is the main cause of accidents. Consequently, responsible driving behavior can significantly reduce accidents’ number and severity. Therefore, in the research area as well as in the industrial area, mobile technologies are widely exploited in assisting drivers in reducing accident rates and preventing accidents. For instance, several mobile apps are provided to assist drivers in improving their driving behavior. Recently and thanks to mobile cloud computing, smartphones can benefit from the computing power of servers in the cloud for executing machine learning algorithms. Therefore, many mobile applications of driving assistance and control are based on machine learning techniques to adjust their functioning automatically to driver history, context, and profile. Additionally, gamification is a key element in the design of these mobile applications that allow drivers to develop their engagement and motivation to improve their driving behavior. To have an overview concerning existing mobile apps that improve driving behavior, we have chosen to conduct a systematic mapping study about driving behavior mobile apps that exist in the most common mobile apps repositories or that were published as research works in digital libraries. In particular, we should explore their functionalities, the kinds of collected data, the used gamification elements, and the used machine learning techniques and algorithms. We have successfully identified 220 mobile apps that help to improve driving behavior. In this work, we will extract all the data that seem to be useful for the classification and analysis of the functionalities offered by these applications.

Network Anomaly Detection

Currently, expert systems and applied machine learning algorithms are widely used to automate network intrusion detection. In critical infrastructure applications of communication technologies, the interaction among various industrial control systems and the Internet environment intrinsic to the IoT technology makes them susceptible to cyber-attacks. Given the existence of the enormous network traffic in critical Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs), traditional methods of machine learning implemented in network anomaly detection are inefficient. Therefore, recently developed machine learning techniques, with the emphasis on deep learning, are finding their successful implementations in the detection and classification of anomalies at both the network and host levels. This paper presents an ensemble method that leverages deep models such as the Deep Neural Network (DNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and a meta-classifier (i.e., logistic regression) following the principle of stacked generalization. To enhance the capabilities of the proposed approach, the method utilizes a two-step process for the apprehension of network anomalies. In the first stage, data pre-processing, a Deep Sparse AutoEncoder (DSAE) is employed for the feature engineering problem. In the second phase, a stacking ensemble learning approach is utilized for classification. The efficiency of the method disclosed in this work is tested on heterogeneous datasets, including data gathered in the IoT environment, namely IoT-23, LITNET-2020, and NetML-2020. The results of the evaluation of the proposed approach are discussed. Statistical significance is tested and compared to the state-of-the-art approaches in network anomaly detection.

Machine learning techniques are essential for system log anomaly detection. It is prone to the phenomenon of class overlap because of too many similar system log data. The occurrence of this phenomenon will have a serious impact on the anomaly detection of the system logs. To solve the problem of class overlap in system logs, this paper proposes an anomaly detection model for class overlap problem on system logs. We first calculate the relationship between the sample data and the membership of different classes, normal or anomaly, and use the fuzziness to separate the sample data of the overlapping parts of the classes from the data of the other parts. AdaBoost, an ensemble learning approach, is used to detect overlapping data. Compared with machine learning algorithms, ensemble learning can better classify the data of the overlapping parts, so as to achieve the purpose of detecting the anomalies of the system logs. We also discussed the possible impact of different voting methods on ensemble learning results. Experimental results show that our model can be effectively applied in a variety of basic algorithms, and the results of each measure have been improved.
