Dynamic Network Updating Techniques for Diagnostic Reasoning

چکیده

A new probabilistic network construction system, DYNASTY, is proposed for diagnos­ tic reasoning given variables whose probabil­ ities change over time. Diagnostic reason­ ing is formulated as a sequential stochastic process, and is modeled using influence dia­ grams. Given a set 0 of observations, DY­ NASTY creates an influence diagram in or­ der to devise the best action given 0. Sensi­ tivity analyses are conducted to determine if the best network has been created, given the uncertainty in network parameters and topol­ ogy. DYNASTY uses an equivalence class ap­ proach to provide decision thresholds for the sensitivity analysis. This equivalence-class approach to diagnostic reasoning differenti­ ates diagnoses only if the required actions are different. A set of network-topology updat­ ing algorithms are proposed for dynamically updating the network when necessary.

BeeID: intrusion detection in AODV-based MANETs using artificial Bee colony and negative selection algorithms

Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are multi-hop wireless networks of mobile nodes constructed dynamically without the use of any fixed network infrastructure. Due to inherent characteristics of these networks, malicious nodes can easily disrupt the routing process. A traditional approach to detect such malicious network activities is to build a profile of the normal network traffic, and then iden...

Relevance-Based Incremental Belief Updating in Bayesian Networks

Relevance reasoning in Bayesian networks can be used to improve eeciency of belief updating algorithms by identifying and pruning those parts of a network that are irrelevant for the computation. Relevance reasoning is based on the graphical property of d{separation and other simple and eecient techniques, the computational complexity of which is usually negligible when compared to the complexi...
