Network Traffic Anomaly Detection Method Based on Multi scale Residual Feature
To address the problem that traditional network traffic anomaly detection algorithms do not suffi-ciently mine potential features in long time domain, an anomaly detection method based on mul-ti-scale residual features of network traffic is proposed. The original traffic is divided into subse-quences of different time spans using sliding windows, and each subsequence is decomposed and reconstructed into data sequences of different levels using wavelet transform technique; the stacked autoencoder (SAE) constructs similar feature space using normal network traffic, and gen-erates reconstructed error vector using the difference between reconstructed samples and input samples in the similar feature space; the multi-path residual group is used to learn reconstructed error The traffic classification is completed by a lightweight classifier. The experimental results show that the detection performance of the proposed method for anomalous network traffic is sig-nificantly improved compared with traditional methods; it confirms that the longer time span and more S transformation scales have positive effects on discovering potential diversity information in the original network traffic.
