Improved Elman Deep Learning Model for Intrusion Detection System in Internet of Things

Many researchers have developed intrusion detection systems in the past using conventional techniques such as artificial neural networks, fuzzy clustering, evolutionary algorithms, association rule mining, and support vector machines. However, in terms of false negative rates and detection rates, these methods did not yield the best outcomes. To address these problems, we proposed a hybrid deep learning model (HDLM) based on intrusion detection and prevention in IoT devices. Initially, the data are collected from KDDCup-99 and NSL-KDD datasets. Then, the important features are extracted from the dataset using the Forward Feature Selection Algorithm (FFSA). Finally, the extracted features are given to the HDLM classifier. The proposed HDLM is a combination of Elman Recurrent Neural Network (ERNN) and Subtraction-Average-Based Optimizer (SABO). The performance of the suggested method is assessed using performance metrics including precision, recall, accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, and F_Measure. The experimental results show that the proposed method attained the maximum intrusion detection accuracy of 98.52%.
