• Abstract: Fully Connected Neural Networks (FCNNs) have been the core of most state-of-the-art Machine Learning (ML) applications in recent years and also have been widely used for Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs). Experimental results from the last years show that generally deeper neural networks with more layers perform better than shallow models. Nonetheless, with the growing number of layers, obtaining fast predictions with less resources has become a difficult task despite the use of special hardware such as GPUs. We propose a new architecture to detect network attacks with minimal resources. The architecture is able to deal with either binary or multiclass classification problems and trades prediction speed for the accuracy of the network. We evaluate our proposal with two different network intrusion detection datasets. Results suggest that it is possible to obtain comparable accuracies to simple FCNNs without evaluating all layers for the majority of samples, thus obtaining early predictions and saving energy and computational efforts.

  neural network predictions tend to be unpredictable and overconfident when faced with out-of-distribution (OOD) inputs. We observe that neural network predictions often tend towards a constant value as input data becomes increasingly OOD. We show how one can leverage our insights in practice to enable risk-sensitive decision-making in the presence of OOD inputs.

This study employs an overcomplete CNN architecture to focus on learning low-level features by restricting the receptive field. We show that the proposed network improves despeckling performance compared to recent despeckling methods on synthetic and real SAR images.
