• Abstract summary: We study the classification of animal behavior using accelerometry data through various recurrent neural network (RNN) models. We evaluate the classification performance and complexity of the considered models. We also include two state-of-the-art convolutional neural network (CNN)-based time-series classification models in the evaluations.

• Abstract: We study the classification of animal behavior using accelerometry data through various recurrent neural network (RNN) models. We evaluate the classification performance and complexity of the considered models, which feature long short-time memory (LSTM) or gated recurrent unit (GRU) architectures with varying depths and widths, using four datasets acquired from cattle via collar or ear tags. We also include two state-of-the-art convolutional neural network (CNN)-based time-series classification models in the evaluations. The results show that the RNN-based models can achieve similar or higher classification accuracy compared with the CNN-based models while having less computational and memory requirements. We also observe that the models with GRU architecture generally outperform the ones with LSTM architecture in terms of classification accuracy despite being less complex. A single-layer uni-directional GRU model with 64 hidden units appears to offer a good balance between accuracy and complexity making it suitable for implementation on edge/embedded devices.

  The objective here is to create a reliable intrusion detection mechanism to help identify malicious attacks. Deep learning based solution framework is developed consisting of three approaches. The first approach is Long-Short Term Memory Recurrent Neural Network (LSTM-RNN) with seven functions such as adamax, SGD, adagrad, adam, RMSprop, nadam and adadelta. The models self-learnt the features and classifies the attack classes as multi-attack classification.
