With the recent housing crisis, studying abandoned buildings has once again become important. However, it has been some time since abandoned buildings were the subject of direct study, leaving scholars with scant knowledge about the characteristics of abandoned buildings, how they change, and their relationship to neighborhood processes. To fill this gap, we employed longitudinal photographic a...

--Network security risks grow tremendously in recent past, the attacks on computer networks have enhanced hugely and need economical network intrusion detection mechanisms. Data processing and machine-learning techniques are used for network intrusion detection throughout the past few years and have gained abundant quality. In this paper, we propose an intrusion detection mechanism based on sim...

Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) is a security system that monitors the network traffic and analyzes activities for possible hostile attacks. A novel collaborative visual analytics application for cognitive overloaded site security officer (SSO) in the network intrusion detection environment is presented. The system was developed for site security officers who need to analyze heterogen...

A web application today often utilizes web APIs to incorporate third-party services into its functionality. Such API integration, however, is full of security perils: recent studies show that popular web sites using high-profile web services, such as PayPal/Amazon checkouts and Facebook/Google singlesign-on (SSO) services, are riddled with logic flaws, enabling a malicious party to shop for fre...

Text document clustering is one of the most widely studied data mining problems. It organizes text documents into groups such that each group has similar text documents. While grouping text documents, several issues have been observed. Accuracy and Efficiency are the main issues in text document clustering. Recently, as clustering problem can be mapped to optimization problem, evolutionary opti...

Single sign-on (SSO) is definitely an authentication mechanism that enables any legal user which has a one credential being authenticated by means of many distributed computer networks. Recently Chang and Lee proposed the latest SSO structure in addition to state their safety measures by providing well-organized safety measures quarrels. In another attack, an outsider without any credential mig...
