With rapid technological progress in the Internet of Things (IoT), it has become imperative to concentrate on its security aspect. This paper represents a model that accounts for the detection of botnets through the use of machine learning algorithms. The model examined anomalies, commonly referred to as botnets, in a cluster of IoT devices attempting to connect to a network. Essentially, this paper exhibited the use of transport layer data (User Datagram Protocol- UDP) generated through IoT devices. An intelligent novel model comprising Random Forest Classifier with Independent Component Analysis (ICA) was proposed for botnet detection in IoT devices. Various machine learning algorithms were also implemented upon the processed data for comparative analysis. The experimental results of the proposed model generated state-of-the-art results for three different datasets, achieving up to 99.99% accuracy effectively with the lowest prediction time of 0.12 seconds without overfitting. The significance of this study lies in detecting botnets in IoT devices effectively and efficiently under all circumstances by utilizing ICA with Random Forest Classifier, which is a simple machine learning algorithm.
In the fourth industrial revolution, data-driven intelligent fault diagnosis for industrial purposes serves a crucial role. In contemporary times, although deep learning is a popular approach for fault diagnosis, it requires massive amounts of labelled samples for training, which is arduous to come by in the real world. Our contribution to introduce a novel comprehensive intelligent fault detection model using the Case Western Reserve University dataset is divided into two steps. Firstly, a new hybrid signal decomposition methodology is developed comprising Empirical Mode Decomposition and Variational Mode Decomposition to leverage signal information from both processes for effective feature extraction. Secondly, transfer learning with DenseNet121 is employed to alleviate the constraints of deep learning models. Finally, our proposed novel technique surpassed not only previous outcomes but also generated state-of-the-art outcomes represented via the F1 score.
