Modification of supervised OPF-based intrusion detection systems using unsupervised learning and social network concept

Optimum-path forest (OPF) is a graph-based machine learning method that can overcome some limitations of the traditional machine learning algorithms that have been used in intrusion detection systems. This paper presents a novel approach for intrusion detection using a modified OPF (MOPF) algorithm for improving the performance of traditional OPF in terms of detection rate (DR), false alarm rate (FAR), and time of execution. To address the...
