    About this ebook

    Traffic Anomaly Detection presents an overview of traffic anomaly detection analysis, allowing you to monitor security aspects of multimedia services. The author's approach is based on the analysis of time aggregation adjacent periods of the traffic.

    As traffic varies throughout the day, it is essential to consider the concrete traffic period in which the anomaly occurs. This book presents the algorithms proposed specifically for this analysis and an empirical comparative analysis of those methods and settle a new information theory based technique, named "typical day analysis".

    • A new information-theory based technique for traffic anomaly detection (typical day analysis)
    • Introductory chapters to anomaly detection methods including control charts, tests of goodness-of-fit Mutual Information
    • Contains comparative analysis of traffic anomaly detection methods

      Introduction

      In this book, we show an overview of traffic anomaly detection analysis, which allows us to monitor the security aspects of multimedia services. This approach is based on the analysis of time aggregation adjacent periods of the traffic. As traffic varies throughout the day, it is essential to consider the concrete traffic period in which the anomaly occurs. In this book, we present the algorithms proposed for this analysis. In addition, we make an empirical comparative analysis of these methods and produce a new information theory-based technique which we call typical day analysis.

      In Chapter 1, we present the change point detection algorithms that we are considering in this book. We introduce the Cumulative SUM (CUSUM) control chart, two tests of goodness-of-fit (Pearson's Chi-squared and Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests) and mutual information (mutual dependency between variables). These algorithms are used in the subsequent chapters to detect traffic anomalies in multimedia
