Federated learning-based
Intrusion Detection System for
the Internet of Things using
Unsupervised and Supervised
Deep Learning Models
Problem Statement
This paper develops an Federated Learning based Intrusion Detection
System for IoT by combining Unsupervised Autoencoders (AEs) for
Anomaly detection and Supervised Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) for
Attack classification.
Unlike past studies, it integrates both models on a IoT dataset for
improved accuracy and privacy.
