Event re-scheduled from original  date of 2024-Jun-15 

Speaker:  Ljiljana Trajkovic, Ph.D., P.Eng., FIEEE; Professor, School of Engineering Science, Simon Fraser University

In this talk, the speaker will describe collection and analysis of data from various deployed communication networks and the Internet. We are interested in collections of traffic data during reported anomalies such as worms, viruses, power outages, and ransomware attacks. Modern machine learning techniques and tools used to classify such anomalies are described and evaluated.

Registration is optional, but we want to know who to expect.
10:00 AM P.D.T. Suggest you log in at 9:45 AM (12:45 PM Montreal) to check connection and say hello.
All IEEE members are welcome, especially those Life Members that don't have a local Affinity Group.

We are looking for speakers for the rest of the year, contact Carl Zanon <sczanon@shaw.ca> if interested.

Topic:

Data Mining and Machine Learning for Analysis of Network Traffic

Collection and analysis of data from deployed networks is essential for understanding modern communication networks. Data mining and statistical analysis of network data are often employed to determine traffic loads, analyze patterns of users' behavior, and predict future network traffic while various machine learning techniques proved valuable for predicting anomalous traffic behavior. In described case studies, traffic traces collected from various deployed networks and the Internet are used to characterize and model network traffic, analyze Internet topologies, and classify network anomalies.
