Artificial intelligence enabled Luong Attention and Hosmer Lemeshow Regression Window‐based attack detection in 6G

Abstract

SummaryRegardless of the developments of networking and communication technologies, security is without exception a predominant feature to ensure network reliability. The future sixth‐generation (6G) network is anticipated to be carried out with artificial intelligence (AI) powered communication via machine learning (ML), post‐quantum cryptography, and so on. AI‐powered communication has been in recent years utilized in enhancing network traffic performance with respect to resource management, optimal frequency spectrum design, security, and latency. The studies of modern wireless communications and anticipated features of 6G networks revealed a prerequisite for designing a trustworthy attack detection mechanism. In this work, a method called, Luong Attention and Hosmer Lemeshow Regression Window‐based (LA‐HLRW) attack detection in 6G is proposed. Initially, with the raw Botnet Attack dataset obtained as input, preprocessing is performed to normalize network traffic features. Next, the dimensionality of network traffic feature of large‐scale network traffic data is reduced using the Luong Attention integrated with Long Short Term Memory (LSTM)‐based Feature extraction model. Finally, with the objective of classifying network traffic samples for attack detection in 6G, we analyze the low dimensional network traffic feature set produced by Luong Attention integrated with LSTM using the Hosmer Lemeshow Logistic Regression Window‐based Attack Detection model. Extensive experiments are performed with the Botnet Attack dataset to validate the efficiency of the proposed LA‐HLRW method by using different parameters such as attack detection accuracy, attack detection time, precision, and recall. The overall analysis of proposed LA‐HLRW results significantly reduced the attack detection time by 24%, and additionally improved attack detection accuracy, precision, and recall by 5%, 5%, and 6% as compared to existing attack detection methods respectively.
