An intrusion detection system (IDS) inspects all inbound and outbound network activity and identifies suspicious patterns that may indicate a network or system attack from someone attempting to break into or compromise a system. Soft computing techniques resemble biological processes more closely than traditional techniques, which are largely based on formal logical systems. Knowledge Discovery...

In this paper we present and evaluate a Radial-basis-function neural network detector for Distributed-Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks in public networks based on statistical features estimated in short-time window analysis of the incoming data packets. A small number of statistical descriptors were used to describe the DDoS attacks behaviour, and an accurate classification is achieved using th...

Speaker identification is the computing task to identify an unknown identity based on the voice. A good speaker identification system must have a high accuracy rate to avoid invalid identity. Despite of last few decades’ efforts, accuracy rate in speaker identification is still low. In this paper, we propose a hybrid approach of unsupervised and supervised learning i.e. subtractive clustering a...

In this paper we introduce adaptive vision techniques used, for example, in video-conferencing applications. Radial Basis Function (RBF) networks have been trained for gesture-based communication with colour/motion cues to direct face detection and capture ‘attentional frames’. These focus the processing for Visually Mediated Interaction via an appearance-based approach with Gabor filter coeffi...

The two well-known neural network, Hopfield networks and Radial Basis Function networks, have different structures and characteristics. Hopfield neural network and RBF neural network are two of the most commonly-used types of feedback networks and feedforward networks respectively. This study gives an overview for Hopfield neural network and RBF neural network in architectures, the learning pro...

This paper analyses the application of Radial Basis Function (RBF) networks in grade interpolation. These networks are a very unique member of the family of Artificial Neural Networks. RBF networks have such theoretical properties that establish them as a potential alternative to existing grade interpolation techniques. Their suitability to the problem of grade interpolation will be demonstrate...

We address a contrastive study between the well known Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural networks and a SOM based supervised architecture in a number of data classification tasks. Well known databases like Breast Cancer, Parkinson and Iris were used to evaluate the three architectures by constructing confusion matrices. The results are encouraging and indicate t...

ICE is a new incremental construction algorithm of a hybrid system for continuous learning tasks. The basis of the hybrid system is a radial basis function (RBF) network layer. The second layer consists of local models. The two layers are closely combined with a strong interaction. For example information from the model-layer is used by the RBF-layer to decide if new RBF-neurons are needed and ...

In a motorized spindle, due to the complexity of the system and nonlinear relationship between features and types of faults, it is difficult and inefficient to use traditional methods or physical models for the fault diagnosis. This paper focuses on the research on applying Radial Basis Function (RBF) Networks for fault detection and classification in the motorized spindle. As a data driven mod...

This work describes a Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural network method used to analyze ECG signals for diagnosing cardiac arrhythmias effectively. The proposed method can accurately classify and differentiate normal (Normal) and abnormal heartbeats. Abnormal heartbeats include left bundle branch block (LBBB), right bundle branch block (RBBB), atrial premature contractions (APC) and premature v...
