An Efficient Intrusion Detection Framework Based on Embedding Feature Selection and Ensemble Learning Technique
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Network security has emerged as a crucial universal issue that affects enterprises, governments, and individuals. The strategies utilized by the attackers are continuing to evolve, and therefore the rate of attacks targeting the network system has expanded dramatically. An Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is one of the significant defense solutions against sophisticated cyberattacks. However, the challenge of improving the accuracy, detection rate, and minimal false alarms of the IDS continues. This paper proposes a robust and effective intrusion detection framework based on the ensemble learning technique using eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and an embedded feature selection method. Further, the best uniform feature subset is extracted using the up-to-date real-world intrusion dataset Canadian Institute for Cybersecurity Intrusion Detection (CICIDS2017) for all attacks. The proposed IDS framework has successfully exceeded several evaluations on a big test dataset over both multi and binary classification. The achieved results are promising on various measurements with an accuracy overall, precision, detection rate, specificity, F-score, false-negative rate, false-positive rate, error rate, and The Area Under the Curve (AUC) scores of 99.86%, 99.69%, 99.75%, 99.69%, 99.72%, 0.17%, 0.2%, 0.14%, and 99.72 respectively for abnormal class. Moreover, the achieved results of multi-classification are also remarkable and impressively great on all performance metrics.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
