Project description:User authentication is a fundamental aspect of information security, requiring robust measures against identity fraud and data breaches. In the domain of keystroke dynamics research, a significant challenge lies in the reliance on imposter datasets, particularly evident in real-world scenarios where obtaining authentic imposter data is exceedingly difficult. This article presents a novel approach to keystroke dynamics-based authentication, utilizing unsupervised outlier detection techniques, notably exemplified by the histogram-based outlier score (HBOS), eliminating the necessity for imposter samples. A comprehensive evaluation, comparing HBOS with 15 alternative outlier detection methods, highlights its superior performance. This departure from traditional dependence on imposter datasets signifies a substantial advancement in keystroke dynamics research. Key innovations include the introduction of an alternative outlier detection paradigm with HBOS, increased practical applicability by reducing reliance on extensive imposter data, resolution of real-world challenges in simulating fraudulent keystrokes, and addressing critical gaps in existing authentication methodologies. Rigorous testing on Carnegie Mellon University's (CMU) keystroke biometrics dataset validates the effectiveness of the proposed approach, yielding an impressive equal error rate (EER) of 5.97%, a notable area under the ROC curve of 97.79%, and a robust accuracy (ACC) of 89.23%. This article represents a significant advancement in keystroke dynamics-based authentication, offering a reliable and efficient solution characterized by substantial improvements in accuracy and practical applicability.

Project description:Voice intelligence is a revolutionary “zero-touch” type of human-machine interaction based on spoken language. There has been a recent increase in the number and variations of voice assistants and applications that help users to acquire information. The increased popularity of voice intelligence, however, has not been reflected in the customer value chain. Current research on the socio-technological aspects of human-technology interaction has emphasized the importance of anthropomorphism and user identification in the adoption of the technology. Prior research has also pointed out that user perception toward the technology is key to its adoption. Therefore, this research examines how anthropomorphism and multimodal biometric authentication influence the adoption of voice intelligence through user perception in the customer value chain. In this study we conducted a between-subjects online experiment. We designed a 2 × 2 factorial experiment by manipulating anthropomorphism and multimodal biometric authentication into four conditions, namely with and without a combination of these two factors. Subjects were recruited from Amazon MTurk platform and randomly assigned to one of the four conditions. The results drawn from the empirical study showed a significant direct positive effect of anthropomorphism and multimodal biometric authentication on user adoption of voice intelligence in the customer value chain. Moreover, the effect of anthropomorphism is partially mediated by users' perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and perceived security risk. This research contributes to the existing literature on human-computer interaction and voice intelligence by empirically testing the simultaneous impact of anthropomorphism and biometric authentication on users' experience of the technology. The study also provides practitioners who wish to adopt voice intelligence in the commercial environment with insights into the user interface design.

Project description:The emerging physical-layer unclonable attribute-aided authentication (PLUA) schemes are capable of outperforming traditional isolated approaches, with the advantage of having reliable fingerprints. However, conventional PLUA methods face new challenges in artificial intelligence of things (AIoT) applications owing to their limited flexibility. These challenges arise from the distributed nature of AIoT devices and the involved information, as well as the requirement for short end-to-end latency. To address these challenges, we propose a security authentication scheme that utilizes intelligent prediction mechanisms to detect spoofing attack. Our approach is based on a dynamic authentication method using long short term memory (LSTM), where the edge computing node observes and predicts the time-varying channel information of access devices to detect clone nodes. Additionally, we introduce a Savitzky-Golay filter-assisted high order cumulant feature extraction model (SGF-HOCM) for preprocessing channel information. By utilizing future channel attributes instead of relying solely on previous channel information, our proposed approach enables authentication decisions. We have conducted extensive experiments in actual industrial environments to validate our prediction-based security strategy, which has achieved an accuracy of 97%.

Project description:Biometric authentication is a widely used method for verifying individuals' identities using photoplethysmography (PPG) cardiac signals. The PPG signal is a non-invasive optical technique that measures the heart rate, which can vary from person to person. However, these signals can also be changed due to factors like stress, physical activity, illness, or medication. Ensuring the system can accurately identify and authenticate the user despite these variations is a significant challenge. To address these issues, the PPG signals were preprocessed and transformed into a 2-D image that visually represents the time-varying frequency content of multiple PPG signals from the same human using the scalogram technique. Afterward, the features fusion approach is developed by combining features from the hybrid convolution vision transformer (CVT) and convolutional mixer (ConvMixer), known as the CVT-ConvMixer classifier, and employing attention mechanisms for the classification of human identity. This hybrid model has the potential to provide more accurate and reliable authentication results in real-world scenarios. The sensitivity (SE), specificity (SP), F1-score, and area under the receiver operating curve (AUC) metrics are utilized to assess the model's performance in accurately distinguishing genuine individuals. The results of extensive experiments on the three PPG datasets were calculated, and the proposed method achieved ACCs of 95%, SEs of 97%, SPs of 95%, and an AUC of 0.96, which indicate the effectiveness of the CVT-ConvMixer system. These results suggest that the proposed method performs well in accurately classifying or identifying patterns within the PPG signals to perform continuous human authentication.

Project description:Hybrid breeding is fast becoming a key instrument in plants' crop productivity. Grain yield performance of hybrids (F1) under different parental genetic features has consequently received considerable attention in the literature. The main objective of this study was to introduce a new method, known as AI_HIB under different parental genetic features using artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. In so doing, the rice cultivars TAM, KHZ, SPD, GHB, IR28, AHM, SHP and their F1 hybrid were used. Having recorded Grain Yield (GY), Unfertile Panicle Number (UFP), Plant Height (HE), Days to Flowering (DF), Panicle Exertion (PE), Panicle Length (PL), Filled Grain Number (FG), Primary Branches Number (PBN), Flag Leaf Length (FLL), Flag Leaf Width (FLW), Flag Leaf Area (FLA), and Plant Biomass (BI) in the field, we include these features in our proposed model. When using the GA and PSO algorithm to select the features, grain yield had the highest frequency at the input of the Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) structure. The AI_HIB_ANN result revealed that the trained neural network with parental data enjoyed a good ability to predict the response of hybrid performance. Findings also reflected that the obtained MSE was low and R2 value was greater than 96%. AI_HIB_SVM and AI_HIB_ANFIS showed that measuring attributes could predict number of primary branches, plant height, days to flowering and grain yield per plant with accuracies of 99%. These findings have significant implications as it presents a new promising prediction method for hybrid rice yield based on the characteristics of the parent lines by AI. These findings contribute to provide a basis for designing a smartphone application in terms of the AI_HIB_SVM and AI_HIB_ANFIS methods to easily predict hybrid performance with a high accuracy rate.

Project description:Biometric technology is becoming increasingly prevalent in several vital applications that substitute traditional password and token authentication mechanisms. Recognition accuracy and computational cost are two important aspects that are to be considered while designing biometric authentication systems. Thermal imaging is proven to capture a unique thermal signature for a person and thus has been used in thermal face recognition. However, the literature did not thoroughly analyse the impact of feature selection on the accuracy and computational cost of face recognition which is an important aspect for limited resources applications like IoT ones. Also, the literature did not thoroughly evaluate the performance metrics of the proposed methods/solutions which are needed for the optimal configuration of the biometric authentication systems. This paper proposes a thermal face-based biometric authentication system. The proposed system comprises five phases: a) capturing the user's face with a thermal camera, b) segmenting the face region and excluding the background by optimized superpixel-based segmentation technique to extract the region of interest (ROI) of the face, c) feature extraction using wavelet and curvelet transform, d) feature selection by employing bio-inspired optimization algorithms: grey wolf optimizer (GWO), particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithm (GA), e) the classification (user identification) performed using classifiers: random forest (RF), k-nearest neighbour (KNN), and naive bayes (NB). Upon the public dataset, Terravic Facial IR, the proposed system was evaluated using the metrics: accuracy, precision, recall, F-measure, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) area. The results showed that the curvelet features optimized using the GWO and classified with random forest could help in authenticating users through thermal images with performance up to 99.5% which is better than the results of wavelet features by 10% while the former used 5% fewer features. In addition, the statistical analysis showed the significance of our proposed model. Compared to the related works, our system showed to be a better thermal face authentication model with a minimum set of features, making it computational-friendly.

Project description:ObjectiveTo evaluate the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence (AI)-based algorithms for identifying the presence of interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) in routine (20-min) electroencephalography (EEG) recordings.MethodsWe evaluated two approaches: a fully automated one and a hybrid approach, where three human raters applied an operational IED definition to assess the automated detections grouped into clusters by the algorithms. We used three previously developed AI algorithms: Encevis, SpikeNet, and Persyst. The diagnostic gold standard (epilepsy or not) was derived from video-EEG recordings of patients' habitual clinical episodes. We compared the algorithms with the gold standard at the recording level (epileptic or not). The independent validation data set (not used for training) consisted of 20-min EEG recordings containing sharp transients (epileptiform or not) from 60 patients: 30 with epilepsy (with a total of 340 IEDs) and 30 with nonepileptic paroxysmal events. We compared sensitivity, specificity, overall accuracy, and the review time-burden of the fully automated and hybrid approaches, with the conventional visual assessment of the whole recordings, based solely on unrestricted expert opinion.ResultsFor all three AI algorithms, the specificity of the fully automated approach was too low for clinical implementation (16.67%; 63.33%; 3.33%), despite the high sensitivity (96.67%; 66.67%; 100.00%). Using the hybrid approach significantly increased the specificity (93.33%; 96.67%; 96.67%) with good sensitivity (93.33%; 56.67%; 76.67%). The overall accuracy of the hybrid methods (93.33%; 76.67%; 86.67%) was similar to the conventional visual assessment of the whole recordings (83.33%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 71.48-91.70%; p > .5), yet the time-burden of review was significantly lower (p < .001).SignificanceThe hybrid approach, where human raters apply the operational IED criteria to automated detections of AI-based algorithms, has high specificity, good sensitivity, and overall accuracy similar to conventional EEG reading, with a significantly lower time-burden. The hybrid approach is accurate and suitable for clinical implementation.

Project description:The accurate identification of biological control agents is necessary for monitoring and preventing contamination in integrated pest management (IPM); however, this is difficult for non-taxonomists to achieve in the field. Many machine learning techniques have been developed for multiple applications (e.g., identification of biological organisms). Some phytoseiids are biological control agents for small pests, such as Neoseiulus barkeri Hughes. To identify a precise biological control agent, a boosting machine learning classification, namely eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), was introduced in this study for the semi-automated identification of phytoseiid mites. XGBoost analyses were based on 22 quantitative morphological features among 512 specimens of N. barkeri and related phytoseiid species. These features were extracted manually from photomicrograph of mites and included dorsal and ventrianal shield lengths, setal lengths, and length and width of spermatheca. The results revealed 100% accuracy rating, and seta j4 achieved significant discrimination among specimens. The present study provides a path through which skills and experiences can be transferred between experts and non-experts. This can serve as a foundation for future studies on the automated identification of biological control agents for IPM.

Project description:An ideal anti-counterfeiting technique has to be inexpensive, mass-producible, nondestructive, unclonable and convenient for authentication. Although many anti-counterfeiting technologies have been developed, very few of them fulfill all the above requirements. Here we report a non-destructive, inkjet-printable, artificial intelligence (AI)-decodable and unclonable security label. The stochastic pinning points at the three-phase contact line of the ink droplets is crucial for the successful inkjet printing of the unclonable security labels. Upon the solvent evaporation, the three-phase contact lines are pinned around the pinning points, where the quantum dots in the ink droplets deposited on, forming physically unclonable flower-like patterns. By utilizing the RGB emission quantum dots, full-color fluorescence security labels can be produced. A convenient and reliable AI-based authentication strategy is developed, allowing for the fast authentication of the covert, unclonable flower-like dot patterns with different sharpness, brightness, rotations, amplifications and the mixture of these parameters.

Project description:This paper presents a three trait identification model called multimodal recognition system developed by using different traits like face, finger and voice (Babu and Naidu, 2014, 2016; Balaka and Surendra, 2017) [1-3]. This system provides more security when compare to existing works. Initially, all the traits are followed by pre-processed, extract features using Histogram of oriented gradients (HOG), then apply Gaussian mixture model (GMM) for finding probability density function (PDF) values and then combining these features by using Score level fusion. The result of these features considered as a trainee dataset. In verification process, each test image trait compare with the trainee dataset. This entire process of authentication is done by using machine learning based technique.
