Abstract

Network anomaly detection is a crucial process to identify abnormal network traffic, which may pose a security threat. This research aims to improve the performance and efficiency of Logistic Regression (LR) in network anomaly detection by applying dimension reduction techniques, such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Truncated Singular Value Decomposition (TSVD), t-Distributed Stochastic Neighbor Embedding (t-SNE), and Independent Component Analysis (ICA). The performance of each dimension reduction method is evaluated based on accuracy, precision, recall, F1-score, and computation time. The results show that TSVD provides the best performance with 95.86% accuracy, 0.96 precision, 0.96 recall, 0.95 F1-score, and 13.83 seconds computation time. In contrast, ICA showed the worst performance, especially in precision, recall, and F1-score, with values of 0.73, 0.83, and 0.78, respectively. Meanwhile, although t-SNE produces competitive accuracy, it has a high computational cost with an execution time of 1698.54 seconds. These findings show that choosing the right dimension reduction algorithm not only improves detection performance but also supports data processing efficiency, making it highly relevant for large-scale network security scenarios. Keywords: dimensionality reduction, Logistic Regression, network anamoly detection, performance evaluation, Truncated Singular Value Decomposition.
