Since the occurrence and variety of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) has dramatically increased, the discovery of DDoS signatures (rules) become very difficult for current intrusion detection mechanisms. Darknets, which ...

Evolutionary algorithms are capable to lead to efficient solutions without a predefined design and few human bias. However, they can be prone to early convergence and may be deceived by a non-informative or deceptive fitness ...

The simplicity and flexibility of tagging allows users to collaboratively create large, loosely structured repositories of Web resources. One of its main drawbacks is the need for manual formulation of tags for each posted ...

Real-world decision making is challenging due, in part, to changes in the underlying reward structure: the best option last week may be less rewarding today. Determining the best response is even more challenging when ...

Classification under streaming data constraints implies that training must be performed continuously, can only access individual exemplars for a short time after they arrive, must adapt to dynamic behaviour over time, and ...

Return-orientated programming (ROP) identifies pieces of a process’s executable memory ending in a return instruction (gadgets), and enlists them as an instruction set in which a new, “parasitic” program can be written, ...
