The rapid growth of Internet users led to unwanted cyber issues, including cyberbullying, hate speech, and many more. This article deals with the problems of hate speech on Twitter. Hate speech appears to be an inflammatory kind of interaction process that uses misconceptions to express a hate ideology. The hate speech focuses on various protected aspects, including gender, religion, race, and disability. Owing to hate speech, sometimes unwanted crimes are going to happen as someone or a group of people get disheartened. Hence, it is essential to monitor user’s posts and filter the hate speech related post before it is spread. However, Twitter receives more than six hundred tweets per second and about 500 million tweets per day. Manually filtering any information from such a huge incoming traffic is almost impossible. Concerning to this aspect, an automated system is developed using the Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN). The proposed DCNN model utilises the tweet text with GloVe embedding vector to capture the tweets’ semantics with the help of convolution operation and achieved the precision, recall and F1-score value as 0.97, 0.88, 0.92 respectively for the best case and outperformed the existing models.

The rapid growth of cloud computing environment with many clients ranging from personal users to big corporate or business houses has become a challenge for cloud organizations to handle the massive volume of data and various resources in the cloud. Inefficient management of resources can degrade the performance of cloud computing. Therefore, resources must be evenly allocated to different stakeholders without compromising the organization’s profit as well as users’ satisfaction. A customer’s request cannot be withheld indefinitely just because the fundamental resources are not free on the board. In this paper, a combined resource allocation security with efficient task scheduling in cloud computing using a hybrid machine learning (RATS-HM) technique is proposed to overcome those problems. The proposed RATS-HM techniques are given as follows: First, an improved cat swarm optimization algorithm-based short scheduler for task scheduling (ICS-TS) minimizes the make-span time and maximizes throughput. Second, a group optimization-based deep neural network (GO-DNN) for efficient resource allocation using different design constraints includes bandwidth and resource load. Third, a lightweight authentication scheme, i.e., NSUPREME is proposed for data encryption to provide security to data storage. Finally, the proposed RATS-HM technique is simulated with a different simulation setup, and the results are compared with state-of-art techniques to prove the effectiveness. The results regarding resource utilization, energy consumption, response time, etc., show that the proposed technique is superior to the existing one.

This article explores deep learning models in the field of malware detection in cyberspace, aiming to provide insights into their relevance and contributions. The primary objective of the study is to investigate the practical applications and effectiveness of deep learning models in detecting malware. By carefully analyzing the characteristics of malware samples, these models gain the ability to accurately categorize them into distinct families or types, enabling security researchers to swiftly identify and counter emerging threats. The PRISMA 2020 guidelines were used for paper selection and the time range of review study is January 2015 to Dec 2023. In the review, various deep learning models such as Recurrent Neural Networks, Deep Autoencoders, LSTM, Deep Neural Networks, Deep Belief Networks, Deep Convolutional Neural Networks, Deep Generative Models, Deep Boltzmann Machines, Deep Reinforcement Learning, Extreme Learning Machine, and others are thoroughly evaluated. It highlights their individual strengths and real-world applications in the domain of malware detection in cyberspace. The review also emphasizes that deep learning algorithms consistently demonstrate exceptional performance, exhibiting high accuracy and low false positive rates in real-world scenarios. Thus, this article aims to contribute to a better understanding of the capabilities and potential of deep learning models in enhancing cybersecurity efforts.

Hate speech on social media may spread quickly through online users and subsequently, may even escalate into local vile violence and heinous crimes. This paper proposes a hate speech detection model by means of machine learning and text mining feature extraction techniques. In this study, the authors collected the hate speech of English-Odia code mixed data from a Facebook public page and manually organized them into three classes. In order to build binary and ternary datasets, the data are further converted into binary classes. The modeling of hate speech employs the combination of a machine learning algorithm and features extraction. Support vector machine (SVM), naïve Bayes (NB) and random forest (RF) models were trained using the whole dataset, with the extracted feature based on word unigram, bigram, trigram, combined n-grams, term frequency-inverse document frequency (TF-IDF), combined n-grams weighted by TF-IDF and word2vec for both the datasets. Using the two datasets, we developed two kinds of models with each feature—binary models and ternary models. The models based on SVM with word2vec achieved better performance than the NB and RF models for both the binary and ternary categories. The result reveals that the ternary models achieved less confusion between hate and non-hate speech than the binary models.

Convergence of information and communication technology has brought a radical change in the way data are collected or generated for ease of multi criterion decision making. The huge data is of no use unless it provides certain information. It is very tedious to select a best option among an array of alternatives. Also, it becomes more tedious when the data contains uncertainties and objectives of evaluation vary in importance and scope. Unlocking the hidden data is of no use to gain insight into customers, markets and organizations. Therefore, processing these data for obtaining decisions is of great challenge. Based on decision theory, in the past many methods are introduced to solve multi criterion decision making problem. The limitation of these approaches is that, they consider only certain information of the weights and decision values to make decisions. Alternatively, it makes less useful when managing uncertain and vague information. In addition, an information system establishes relation between two universal sets. In such situations, multi criterion decision making is very challenging. Therefore, an effort has been made in this paper to process inconsistencies in data with the introduction of intuitionistic fuzzy rough set theory on two universal sets.
