An Effective Intrusion Detection Algorithm Based on Improved Semi-supervised Fuzzy Clustering

An algorithm for intrusion detection based on improved evolutionary semi-supervised fuzzy clustering is proposed which is suited for situation that gaining labeled data is more difficulty than unlabeled data in intrusion detection systems. The algorithm requires a small number of labeled data only and a large number of unlabeled data and class labels information provided by labeled data is used to guide the evolution process of each fuzzy partition on unlabeled data, which plays the role of chromosome. This algorithm can deal with fuzzy label, uneasily plunges locally optima and is suited to implement on parallel architecture. Experiments show that the algorithm can improve classification accuracy and has high detection efficiency.
