Binary division fuzzy C-means clustering and particle swarm optimization based efficient intrusion detection for e-governance systems
Sunil K. Muttoo, Saibal K. Pal, 2016, original scientific article

Abstract: With the rapid rise of technology, many unusual and unwanted patterns have been observed in the communication network andrespective systems. This may be attributed to the increase of external threats that cause many security concerns. Such anomalies and unusual behavior lead to a strong need of studying and designing the Intrusion Detection Systems and Clustering. Currently,a variety of clustering methods and their combinations are used to develop an efficient intrusion detection system, but some metrics like low detection rate and high false alarm rate make these models unsatisfactory. The problem of local minima for clustering technique makes their search ability less efficient. An evolutionary technique called particle swarm optimization algorithm, that is based on swarm intelligence, shows a high global maxima search capability. In this paper, these two techniques have been combined to present a novel approach called fuzzy based particle swarm algorithm for the implementation of intrusion detection system. The experiment was conducted on a new data set called Kyoto data set with more number of anomalies. The obtained results were compared with two traditional clustering techniques based on K-Means and Fuzzy C-Means. It was observed that the proposed algorithm outperformed the other two traditional methods on the basis of the Detection Rate and False Alarm rate. In past some researchers have presented the combination of Fuzzy Based Particle Swarm Optimization algorithm to improve the intrusion detection rate,but this rate has been further improved because the algorithm performance depends on the termination condition and the fitness function value which are new in the proposed algorithm. Moreover, cluster numbers have been considered differently in the past, whereas the proposed algorithm works only on binary clustering.

Meta-heuristic algorithms to improve fuzzy C-means and K-means clustering for location allocation of telecenters under e-governance in developing nations
Rajan Gupta, Sunil K. Muttoo, Saibal K. Pal, 2019, original scientific article

Abstract: The telecenter, popularly known as the rural kiosk or common service center, is an important building block for the improvement of e-governance in developing nations as they help in better citizen engagement. Setting up of these centers at appropriate locations is a challenging task; inappropriate locations can lead to a huge loss to the government and allied stakeholders. This study proposes the use of various meta-heuristic algorithms (particle swarm optimization, bat algorithm, and ant colony optimization) for the improvement of traditional clustering approaches (K-means and fuzzy C-means) used in the facility location allocation problem and maps them for the betterment of telecenter location allocation. A dataset from the Indian region was considered for the purpose of this experiment. The performance of the algorithms when applied to traditional facility location allocation problems such as set-cover, P-median, and the P-center problem was investigated, and it was found that their efficiency improved by 20%–25% over that of existing algorithms.

Fuzzy C-means clustering and particle swarm optimization based scheme for common service center location allocation
Rajan Gupta, Sunil K. Muttoo, Saibal K. Pal, 2017, original scientific article

Abstract: Common Service Centers (CSCs), which are also known as Tele-centers and Rural Kiosks, are important infrastructural options for any country aiming to provide E-Governance services in rural regions. Their main objective is to provide adequate information and services to a country’s rural areas, thereby increasing government-citizen connectivity. Within developing nations, such as India, many CSC allocations are being planned. This study proposes a solution for allocating a CSC for villages in a country according to their E-Governance plan. The Fuzzy C-Means (FCM) algorithm was used for clustering the village dataset and finding a cluster center for CSC allocation, and the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm was used for further optimizing the results obtained from the FCM algorithm based on population. In the context of other studies addressing similar issues, this study highlights the practical implementation of location modeling and analysis. An extensive analysis of the results obtained using a village dataset from India including four prominent states shows that the proposed solution reduces the average traveling costs of villagers by an average of 33 % compared with those of allocating these CSCs randomly in a sorted order and by an average of 11 % relative to centroid allocation using the FCM-based approach only. As compared to traditional approaches like P-Center and P-Median, the proposed scheme is better by 31 % and 14 %, respectively. Therefore, the proposed algorithm yields better results than classical FCM and other types of computing techniques, such as random search & linear programming. This scheme could be useful for government departments managing the allocation of CSCs in various regions. This work should also be useful for researchers optimizing the location allocation schemes used for various applications worldwide.
