Multi-Task Deep Learning in IoT Networks for Anomaly and Attack Detection

The talk discusses an approach to the application of multi-task deep machine learning for improving the cyber security of the Internet of Things, including anomaly and attack detection based on autoencoders, hard and soft parameter sharing with data resampling for improved classification, and the integration of knowledge-oriented attention networks and long short-term memory networks for real-time time series analysis. A data preprocessing methodology specifically designed for network traffic analysis is presented. Improved multi-task learning models capable of efficient detecting anomalies and attacks are developed.
