Android platform security is an active area of research where malware detection techniques continuously evolve to identify novel malware and improve the timely and accurate detection of existing malware. Adversaries are constantly in charge of employing innovative techniques to avoid or prolong malware detection effectively. Past studies have shown that malware detection systems are susceptible to evasion attacks where adversaries can successfully bypass the existing security defenses and deliver the malware to the target system without being detected. The evolution of escape-resistant systems is an open research problem. This paper presents a detailed taxonomy and evaluation of Android-based malware evasion techniques deployed to circumvent malware detection. The study characterizes such evasion techniques into two broad categories, polymorphism and metamorphism, and analyses techniques used for stealth malware detection based on the malware's unique characteristics. Furthermore, the article also presents a qualitative and systematic comparison of evasion detection frameworks and their detection methodologies for Android-based malware. Finally, the survey discusses open-ended questions and potential future directions for continued research in mobile malware detection. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The sentiment analysis (SA) from the user‐generated reviews is the latest research topic in natural language processing. Nowadays, the extraction of consumer sentiment from the content of the consumer reviews is getting much attention because of its importance in understanding consumers' experiences regarding services or products. Consumer sentiment may be helpful for both consumers and organizations; a consumer can refer to previous consumers' feedback while making their purchase decisions, and organizations can use it in service improvements. For the consumer SA, this article proposed the BERT‐GAN model with review aspect fusion, which improves the fine‐tuning performance of the BERT model by introducing semi‐supervised adversarial learning. For our objective, we extracted various service aspects from consumer reviews and fused them with the word sequences before feeding them into the model. That helps in incorporating aspect representation as well as position information in context with the sentences. Our results analysis and their demonstration show the contribution of the presented model in terms of accuracy compared with the existing models found in the previous work. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There are various applications of clustering in the fields of machine learning, data mining, data compression along with pattern recognition. The existent techniques like the Llyods algorithm (sometimes called k-means) were affected by the issue of the algorithm which converges to a local optimum along with no approximation guarantee. For overcoming these shortcomings, an efficient k-means clustering approach is offered by this paper for stream data mining. Coreset is a popular and fundamental concept for k-means clustering in stream data. In each step, reduction determines a coreset of inputs, and represents the error, where P represents number of input points according to nested property of coreset. Hence, a bit reduction in error of final coreset gets n times more accurate. Therefore, this motivated the author to propose a new coreset-reduction algorithm. The proposed algorithm executed on the Covertype dataset, Spambase dataset, Census 1990 dataset, Bigcross dataset, and Tower dataset. Our algorithm outperforms with competitive algorithms like Streamkm++, BICO (BIRCH meets Coresets for k-means clustering), and BIRCH (Balance Iterative Reducing and Clustering using Hierarchies.

Security of information put away and handled on the open cloud is a noteworthy concern. In this paper we contend that hybrid cloud gives a perfect situation to applications that require the participation of different associations, every association needs to facilitate a few parts of its movement and offer a few information with a few different associations yet has severe security prerequisites for its very own private information. Such applications could profit by a hybrid cloud condition. In a perfect world, "big data" ought to be scrambled and put away on the open cloud. In this the data from the windmill, wind pump or wind charger are to be stored in cloud, that data must be secured in the cloud by means of a fog computing capability. Towards termination, a third party one round verified key understanding convention had been projected in view of the bilinear blending cryptography that may produce a session key among the members and impart among them safely. At last, the secluded wind turbine information's were gotten to, put away safely via executing a lure procedure. In this computational cost is low and key size is reduced when compared to all other existing systems. The proposed system reduces the computational cost at 97% compared with the other existing systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Fault detection in wind turbine which is identified with complete system monitoring under multi-fault scenario is proposed. When a fault is detected, its types and location are recognized for easy maintenance. Fault in wind turbines is caused due to the high speed of gearbox, generator bearing and the failures occurred in various parts. In wind farm, wind turbine condition monitoring is used to reduce the maintenance cost and also improves the accuracy. Generally, in wind turbine gearbox condition monitoring using sensor is a gainful method to monitor wind turbine performance and fault. This paper nominates a method to decide the parameters for support vector machine (SVM) in wind turbine called Cuckoo search optimization (CSO). The combination of optimization technique with classification technique is evaluated. MATLAB platform was used to evaluate the various faults under fixed value and gain factor conditions. Comparing the accuracy with SVM, particle swarm optimized SVM and k-nearest neighbor, the proposed fault detection and fault isolation technique (CSO-SVM) is improved by 2.5%, 3.5% and 6.5%, respectively. The result shows the CSO model based on SVM algorithm accomplishes the most accurate fault detection than the past models. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
