Security Operations Centers (SOCs) require intrusion detection systems that achieve high detection accuracy while maintaining a low false-positive rate and robustness to evolving attack patterns. However, most existing machine learning-based approaches primarily focus on detecting known threats and often overlook distribution shifts and the reliability of generated alerts. In this paper, we propose TL-SOC, a…

This paper introduces HLLSet (HyperLogLog Set), a probabilistic data structure that behaves like a set under all standard operations while containing no explicit elements. Unlike traditional HyperLogLog, which only estimates cardinality, HLLSets support full set operations (union, intersection, difference) through enhanced register structures and provide a principled framework for representing semantic relationships. We establish a…

Forecasting and assessing student performance are crucial for allowing educators to pinpoint deficiencies and promote grade improvement. A thorough comprehension of feature contributions is crucial for improving model interpretability and facilitating informed decision-making in academic institutions. Explainable artificial intelligence encompasses methodologies and strategies designed to deliver transparent and accessible rationales for the decisions rendered by…

Neural Networks derives intelligent systems and modern autonomous applications. With the complexity introduced in today’s systems, designing architectures remains open research problem in all fields.

Heart rate (HR) is a critical indicator in fitness monitoring, athletic performance evaluation, and injury prevention. However, traditional motion-sensitive wearable devices are highly susceptible to movement artifacts, which degrade measurement accuracy during physical activity. Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) offers a non-contact alternative for HR measurement, though it too remains sensitive to motion. This study proposes a…

Service-oriented architecture has attracted attention in automotive development. The Automotive Open System Architecture (AUTOSAR) specifies Scalable Service-Oriented Middleware over IP (SOME/IP) as a key middleware for service-oriented communication in-vehicles. However, SOME/IP-based networks are vulnerable to server spoofing during the service discovery phase, enabling attackers to cause man-in-the-middle attacks by impersonating legitimate services. This paper proposes…
