1. Introduction

The rapid advancement of technology in mobile smartphone devices makes them an important part of human life [1–4] . Also, the reduction in cost makes it easier for everyone to possess [5] including Those with disability,[6, 7] and their popularity is incre-asing [8, 9] They are now equipped with tremendous functional-ities and a flexible operating system, providing the opportunity to store sensitive information such as official documents as well as installing official applications to improve the efficiency of office work [10]. Mobile phone users have become addict due to the social media applications and other applications being made available through google play store and apple store, [10] which carry numerous private information. Hence, the security of smartphone devices is becoming sacrosanct [11]. Protecting sensitive information requires a strong security scheme to protect the smartphone from intrusion, many mobile phone authenticatio-n schemes have proposed including person number (PIN),passw-ord and authentication [2]  which are all vulnerable to shoulder surfing [2, 12]and smudge attacks [13, 14].Recently, biometrics have been incorporated into smartphone devices [15] in an effort to improve their security system . These include fingerprint auth entication and facial recognition. Fingerprint authentication is also vulnerable to attacks as a user’s fingerprint can be copied from a touched object and used to gain access to the device [16]. Similarly, Facial recognition is also vulnerable to attack as the user’s photo or video can be used to gain unauthorized access to the device and this attack is made easier as the pictures of users can be found on social media platforms [17].

The vulnerability to attack of the current security systems of mobile devices has led many researchers to propose different machine learning algorithms to improve their authentication scheme. For example, [18] they used support vector machine (SVM) to build a behavioral authentication scheme to improve the traditional authentication system. The scheme authenticates users

Based on their behaviors when interacting with social media applications. It is found to perform better than other classical methods. As [19] presented a continuous behavioral authentication model to improve the security of mobile application. In the study, k-nearest neighbor (KNN), random forest (RF) and gradient boosting (GB) were used to build authentication classifiers. In [20], author built an authentication scheme using SVM based on physical activity performed by different mobile phone users. The proposed SVM model showed a promising result when compared with decision tree (DT) and KNN. In [21],  the author hybridized SVM and hidden Markova model (HMM) to develop an authentication model using EEG signal while a user is drawing a pattern. The SVM-HMM model provides the best result when compared with naïve Bayes and cosine similarity. In [22],  the author trained SVM classifier on facial attributes extracted from real images to build a continuous classification scheme. Results indicated that the proposed scheme shows a significant improvement on the existing continuous facial recognition system. Similarly, in [23] the author used a one-class SVM to build a behavioral biometrics authentication that automatically adapt to human behavior change over time while considering memory constraint. Results show that there is a  possibility of using online machine learning to adapt to recent human behavior. In [24], the author trained a two-class SVM classifier using the user’s SCG signal which captures heartbeat signal to improve the security scheme of smartphone devices. The heartbeat signal can be used as a unique feature to authenticate smartphone users.

In [25], the author explored four mobile phone non assisted sensors; transmitted data, noise, battery and ambient light to develop a continuous user authentication based on KNN. The KNN classifier achieved a reasonable accuracy. In  [26], it exploits user’s hand geometry and behavioral biometrics to build a one class classification model based on KNN. The model was compared with SVM and experimental results show that KNN outperforms the SVM in all the different positions. In [27] It creates an authentication scheme using artificial neural network (ANN) based on thumb stroke dynamics. The scheme was evaluated and compared with other .machine learning algorithms and the results of the experiment indicated that the ANN provided the best result. It was found that researchers in this domain heavily relied on SVM [28–33]; [18, 20–23] for mobile smartphone authentication. The previously used algorithms such as SVM, KNN, ANN etc. proved to be good in improving smartphone security especially when the data size is small. However, these algorithms require independent feature extraction before the extracted features are fed to the algorithms [19]. The performance of the algorithms depend on how well the features are extracted before modeling the classifier. Therefore, inefficient feature extraction may lead to poor classification accuracy [34] unlike deep learning which does not require independent feature extraction as it is done automatically and can work on large data size [35, 36]. Finally, a [37] convolutional neural network is applied to create an authentication scheme based on tap sequence and usage behavior of users.

In this paper, we proposed deep learning (dense neural network) based keystroke dynamics authentication for mobile smartphones touch screen device. The closest work to our proposal is [38] the one that employed deep learning technique to build an identification system that identify smartphone users based on keystroke behavior captured via a special keyboard or a web browser. This differs from our work in the sense  that it focuses on a  user’s identification while our proposed model focuses on the user’s authorization and authentication. Similarly, it explores gated recurrent unit and bidirectional recurrent neural network (GRU-BRNN) to build the identification model while our work explored the dense neural network. Also, [39] the deep neural network is explored to develop an authentication scheme based on user keystroke dynamics on mobile phone. Furthermore, our work explored supervise learning dense neural network on 71 different features of keystroke dynamics to build an authentication model while [39] applied deep neural network unsupervised learning on timing, tapping and inertial attributes of keystroke dynamics to develop an authentication scheme.

We choose the DNN in view of the fact that the learning features are provided from all the combination of the features in the layers while convolutional layer depends on minor repetitive field with features that are consistent [40].

The rest of the paper is structured as follows: Section 2 describes the concept of deep learning. Section 3 describes the methodology of the study. Section 4 presents the results and discussion before presenting Section five that comprises conclusions and recommendation for future work.

2. Basic Concept of Deep Learning – Dense Neural Network

Deep Learning is an aspect of machine learning which represents multiple hidden layers that can learn on multiple attributes to produce better results [36]. Traditional machine learning algorithms have limitation on processing real data. Building a classification model with conventional machine learning algorithms, requiring reasonable amount of human expertise and efficient feature engineering to transform the raw data to desirable features that can be fed into any learning system or  classifier. Deep learning permits inputting raw data into the algorithm without being transformed to feature vector or feature engineering as the features are learnt automatically during training the network [36].

Problems are solved in a hierarchical manner in deep learning, where the lower layers depict the basic representation of the problem and the upper layers are created based on the lower layers to build a more complex model. Deep learning is a hierarchical process as each layer in the deep learning network uses the output of the previous layer and the output of the current layer serves as the input to the successive layer to continuously build a complex concept [36]. The number of layers in a network determines the depth of the network. Cconventional machine learning only focuses on one or two layers, whereas in deep learning, the network contains at least three or more hidden layers. The unique aspect of deep learning is that the feature layers are automatically learned on the raw data not extracted by human expertise unlike the conventional machine learning[36]. The major advantages of deep learning over traditional machine learning are; automatic feature extraction and efficient handling of massive amount of data as a result, it keeps improving as the data gets larger [36]. Based on the concept presented in[36], we created  Figure 1 to show deep learning and the conventional machine learning processes.

Figure 2: A simple example of dense neural network

In DNN, the layers of the network are fully connected as the name (dense) suggest, each neuron in a layer is connected to all the neurons in the previous layer which means all the nodes are fully connected to the nodes in the next layer. A densely connected layer learns features from all the combined features of the previous layer. The goal of the classifier is to adequately categorize the input data [40]. Figure 2 presents the simple example of DNN.

3. The proposed deep learning – dense neural network authentication model

This section presents the methodology of the study, where the data collection procedure, propose authentication model, propose work flow and performance metrics are outlined. The proposed model authenticates smartphone users is based on user’s password typing behavior on a touch screen. The framework consists 4 steps namely; accusation of data, training, user authentication and performance evaluation.

3.1. Dataset

The dataset used for this study contains keystroke dynamics (user typing behavior) data of users collected from nexus 7 touch screen smartphone device when typing the “tie5Roanl” password. The data was collected from 56 subjects and each subject was asked to perform the task 51 times. Therefore, the dataset contains 2856 records.  The dataset contains 71 attributes (features), the main features include: hold, up-down, pressure, finger area, average of hold, average pressure and average finger area. Each feature has some feature elements which correspond to the typed characters. The dataset is obtained from the UCI machine learning repository [41]. It was normalized between 0.00 – 1.00, consisting of the user’s keystroke dynamics. The data extracted from touch screen smartphone is used to conduct the experiment. The dataset was partitioned several times and the keystroke attributes were used to train the deep learning – DNN classifier model. During the authentication phase, user’s tested data for all the 56 subjects. As such, the classes are 56 to authenticate each of the 56 subjects. Each of the 56 subject is authenticated. If the similarities between the two models for each of the 56 users matches, the user is authenticated into the smartphone else the user is rejected. To evaluate the performance of the proposed deep learning model – DNN, the model is compared with previously used machines learning algorithms such as SVM, ANN and KNN. These three algorithms were chosen because the algorithms are found to be highly relied on especially SVM in creating classifiers for improving the security of mobile smartphones device [42].

Figure 3: proposed model workflow

The SVM, KNN and ANN were trained to build classifier based on the keystroke dynamics data for the purpose of validation. The performance of the proposed deep learning – DNN classifier is compared with that of the SVM, KNN and ANN. The process involved assessing how well the algorithms perform on the test dataset. The performance of the algorithms on the keystroke dynamic dataset is measured based on performance evaluation metrics.  The complete work flow of the methodology is presented in Figure 3.

3.2. Performance Evaluation Metrics

The performance of the proposed touch screen authentication model is evaluated using the true positive (these are instances that are correctly identified), true negative (instances that are correctly rejected), false positive (these are instances that are incorrectly identified) and false negative (these are instances that are incorrectly rejected). The performance metrics were computed from the results generated from the validation of the models. The performance of the deep learning – DNN algorithm and the classical algorithms are being evaluated using the performance metrics [43].

4. Results and Discussion

In this section, the results generated from the experiment were presented including the discussion. The hardware platform, parameter settings of the proposed deep learning – DNN, comparative analysis of the DNN performance compared to the state of the art methods: SVM, ANN, and KNN were presented as well as the implication of the result in theory and practice.

4.1. Parameter Setting

The implementation was conducted on a platform equipped with Microsoft Window 10 with the following specifications:

• System Type: x64-based processor, 64-bit Operating System
• Memory installed on system (RAM): 8.00 GB
• Processor: Intel(R) Core (TM) i3-4000M @ 2.40 GHz 2.40 GHz

The platform for DNN is TensorFlow using Python. a preliminary experiment was conducted to obtain the best parameters of the propose deep learning – DNN. The number of hidden layers and the nodes on each hidden layer are selected after different combination of layers and nodes were run during the preliminary experiment. It was found that the deep learning – DNN setting with the best performance is presented in Table 2. Different learning rates were tested ranging from (0.1 – 0.9), the best value was adopted. Adam optimizer provided the best performance when compared with Gradient Descent Optimization and Adagrad Optimizer. Relu activation function was selected after been compared with other activation functions such as softmax, tanh, etc. The summary of the preliminary experiment result for setting the deep learning – DNN is presented in Table 2.

Table 2: Optimal parameter setting for the proposed DNN

The deep learning – DNN with the parameter setting in Table 2 is applied to run on keystroke dynamic datasets to authenticate access to mobile smartphone touch screen device. The DNN was run 10 times to ensure consistency of the result produced by the DNN. Data partition ratio affects the performance of the DNN, as such, several partition ratios were used to ascertain the robustness of the DNN and it is performance. An algorithm intend for real world application should be robust in addition to performance. The performance metrics in Table 1 were used to measure the performance of the DNN in user authentication for the mobile touch screen device. To evaluate the performance of the DNN, the classical algorithms SVM, KNN and ANN were also applied on the same dataset to authenticate user access to the touch screen mobile device based on keystroke dynamic authentication. The results of the experiments are presented in Tables 3 – 6 and Figure 4. The first column indicates the different data partition ratio used to evaluate the algorithms. The second column shows the algorithm for the experiment while the third, fourth and fifth columns indicate the mean, best and the worst performance respectively. The bold values in each Table indicates the best result obtained.

Table 3: Performance comparison of the propose DNN with the SVM, KNN and ANN based on Recall

The result presented in Table 3 represent the performance of the algorithms based on the Recall for the five different data partitions. It clearly shows that the proposed DNN model produce the best results compared to the classical algorithms. The DNN result indicates that the propose DNN classifier was able to authenticate user access to the mobile touch screen device based on keystroke dynamics with very high level of accuracy. Meaning that the DNN determines the number of instances that were correctly classified as the legitimate user of the mobile phone touch screen device. ANN produced the worst result in all the different data partitions. This is not surprising because the shallow ANN produce poor result as data size increases.

Table 4 clearly indicated that the propose DNN outperforms the classical algorithms in terms of the F1-measure.  The performance of the DNN is far more than that of the classical algorithms recording more than 90% in each case. The ANN has maintained consistency in producing the worst performance in all the data partition ratio. This result means that the DNN is a good algorithm with potential to determine the harmonic average between the precision and the recall better than the classical algorithms.

Table 4: Performance comparison of DNN with SVM, KNN and ANN based on F1-Score

Table 5: Performance comparison of the propose DNN with SVM, KNN and ANN based on accuracy

Table 5 presents the accuracy of the DNN in authenticating the user of a mobile touch screen device in terms of keystroke dynamic. It is clearly indicated that the propose DNN has better accuracy than the compared algorithms.

Table 6: Performances comparison of the DNN with SVM, KNN and ANN based on FPR

Table 6 clearly indicates that in terms of the FPR, the SVM has the lowest FPR compared to the propose DNN. In this parameter, the DNN fails to outperform the classical algorithms.

Figure 4: Overall accuracy rate of the proposed deep learning – DNN compared to the SVM, KNN and ANN

Figure 4 indicates that the DNN model has the best classification accuracy than the compared algorithms: SVM, KNN and ANN with ANN producing the worst classification accuracy based on the keystroke dynamics. Our proposed DNN model proves to be the overall best performing algorithm for classification based on the keystroke dynamic data providing the best accuracy rate.  It indicates that the DNN model provides a high rate of correctly classified instances and maintaining a low rate of classifying incorrect instances.

Our research work provided a description of the application of DNN in authenticating users of mobile touch screen device based on keystroke dynamics. The authentication security system is to identify authentic users based on keystroke dynamics on mobile touch screen device. As a result, keystroke dynamic features were used for the training of the propose DNN without feature extraction with varying data partition ratios. The DNN authentication based on the keystroke dynamics was applied to classy users based on evaluation measures: f1-measure, recall, accuracy and FPR.

The feature extraction method that the classical algorithms heavily rely on for their performance in the modelling process is a multiple work and human intervention is required significantly. Our propose DNN approach for authentication based on keystroke dynamics is able to eliminate the double work of the feature extraction mostly practiced by researchers in the mobile touch screen device domain.

From the results presented in Tables 3 – 6 and Figure 4. It is clear that the propose DNN can perform better than the classical algorithms in terms of authenticating users of mobile touch screen devices based on keystroke dynamic. The recall and F1-measure values of the propose DNN for authentication based on keystroke dynamics ranges from 94 to 99% while accuracy ranges from 94 – 98.7%. The possible reason why the DNN performs better than the classical algorithms is because of the ability of the DNN to process large size of dataset without requiring feature extraction to discover intricate structures. The propose DNN has proven to provide better authentication of mobile touch screen device based on keystroke dynamic without feature extraction typically required by the classical algorithms. As such, the extra steps of feature extraction that is tedious and incurring extra computational processes can be eliminated with the propose DNN. The DNN has proven that it is a good algorithm with the required robustness to improve the security of the mobile touch screen devices. Therefore, mobile touch screen authentication system can be developed with the propose DNN to improve security of the mobile devices. The experimental result obtained from the study shows that the DNN is a choice algorithm for building classifier for the future research work on keystroke dynamic based user authentication.

The task of authenticating mobile touch screen device considered accuracy, F1-measure and recall as critical measures for evaluating the effectiveness of the authentication systems.  The higher the value of these measures the better is the authentication system. The propose DNN authentication based on the keystroke dynamic can be considered to be successful because of its performance on the three performance measures. Though, the propose DNN has inferior performance on FPR compared to the classical algorithms regarding rejections – FPR. This means that the propose DNN can wrongly classify some few instances as the percentage is not much. It is argued that a classification technique is said to be good if the TPR is high while maintaining a low FPR [42]. Therefore, the propose deep learning – DNN is considered the best because the SVM does not maintain high TPR and low FPR like the deep learning – DNN classifier.

5. Conclusions and Future Work

In this paper, we proposed a deep learning approach to build a touch screen mobile phone authentication scheme based on keystroke dynamics. An experiment was carried out and the deep learning model was evaluated by comparing it with conventional machine learning algorithms: the SVM, KNN and ANN. Results of the experiment show that the propose deep learning model outperforms the compared algorithms. The results indicated the feasibility of using deep learning to improve the security system of the mobile smartphone touch screen devices. The deep learning approach has succeeded in eliminating the tedious feature extraction step required by the conventional algorithms: SVM, KNN and ANN.  The propose dense DNN low performance on FPR which is considered to be the next future work to improve the value of the FPR. In the future, we plan to use behavioral biometric data extracted from users when drawing a pattern password.
