Abstract

Accurate detection of network intrusions remains challenging under severe class imbalance, where rare attacks such as remote-to-local (R2L) and user-to-root (U2R) are poorly represented. Although many learning-based intrusion detection systems achieve high overall accuracy, conventional loss functions often bias training toward majority classes, leading to weak minority-class performance. This paper introduces a smooth margin-reciprocal loss (MRL), inspired by distance-weighted discrimination (DWD), which emphasizes samples with small or negative margins while rapidly attenuating penalties for well-classified instances. Unlike probability-based focal loss, MRL operates directly on the signed margin and enables stable optimization with first-order methods. Experiments conducted on the NSL-KDD benchmark using linear and shallow multilayer perceptron models show that MRL consistently improves macro-F1 and per-class precision–recall AUC compared with hinge, logistic, and focal losses, with notable gains on minority attack classes.

Abstract

The rapid deployment of the internet of drones (IoD) exposes aerial networks to authentication failures, eavesdropping, data theft, and impersonation attacks due to open wireless communication. This paper presents a lightweight identity based blind signcryption scheme for secure IoD communication. The scheme leverages hyper-elliptic curve cryptography to provide strong security with reduced computational overhead, making it suitable for resource-constrained drones. The blind signcryption mechanism enhances privacy by preventing the signer from accessing message content. Informal analysis shows that the scheme achieves confidentiality, authentication, anonymity, forward secrecy, and resis tance to common protocol-level attacks. Formal verification using the Scyther tool confirms secrecy, agreement, and authentication properties under a stan dard symbolic adversary model. Analytical and simulation-based evaluations demonstrate average reductions of 59.60% in computational cost, 48.86% in communication overhead, and 55.75% in energy consumption compared with existing schemes. While the results confirm protocol-level efficiency, real-world implementation and testbed validation remain future work.
