Abstract

Abstract : Purpose: This paper aims to propose a multi-dimensional hierarchical K-means clustering algorithm for the purpose of intrusion detection. Initially, the clustering set of rules is proposed to shape some of clusters in the network and then the most beneficial clusters are decided on by the use of Cuckoo search optimization set of rules. Finally, an Artificial Bee Colony primarily based selection tree (ABC-DT) classifier is rented to classify the regular and unusual instances present in the network with the aid of the extracted features. Design/methodology/approach: Intrusion detection system (IDS) is crucial for the network system; the intruder can take sensitive details about the network. IDS are said to be more effective when it has both high intrusion detection rate and low false alarm rate. Numerous strategies including gadget mastering, records mining and statistical techniques were tested for IDS mission. Recent study reveals that combining multiple classifiers, i.e. classifiers ensemble, can also own better performance than unmarried classifier. In this paper, a comparative study is conducted of the overall performance of four classifiers, i.e. hybrid ABC-DT particle swarm optimization-based K-means clustering (PSO-KM), help vector device (SVM) and K-Nearest neighbour (KNN). All the four classifiers are tested with exceptional packet sizes 1470, 1024, 512 and 256. The experiment is carried out for the speed ranging from turned into done for the velocity ranging from 250Mbps, 500Mbps, 750Mbps, 1.0Gpbs, 1.5Gbps, and 2.0Gbps in terms of accuracy, detection charge, specificity, false alarm charge and computational time. The experimental results reveals that the hybridization of classifiers performs better than the base classifiers in all scenarios. Findings: This study analyses the performance of hybrid ABC-DT classifier and compares the performance against three well-known classifiers such as PSO-KM, SVM and K-NN. The performances of all the four classifiers are tested with Discovery in Data Mining (KDD) CUP 99 dataset with different packet sizes 1470, 1024, 512 and 256. The results show the classifier performance variations with different speed ranges. From the experimental results and analysis, the hybridization of classifiers such as ABC-DT outperforms the base classifiers in all scenarios. Originality/value: The novel approach in this paper is used to study the hybrid ABC-DT classifier and compare the performance against three well-known classifiers such as PSO-KM, SVM and K-NN. The discussed concept is used within the network to monitor the traffic to and from all the devices connected in that network.
