Modern network intrusion detection systems rely on machine learning techniques to detect traffic anomalies and thus intruders. However, the ability to learn the network behaviour in real-time comes at a cost: malicious software can interfere with the learning process, and teach the intrusion detection system to accept dangerous traffic. This paper presents an intrusion detection system (IDS) that is able to detect common network attacks including but not limited to, denial-of-service, bot nets, intrusions, and network scans. With the help of the proposed example IDS, we show to what extent the training attack (and more sophisticated variants of it) has an impact on machine-learning based detection schemes, and how it can be detected.

This paper presents a multi-agent simulation implemented in Python, using fuzzy logic to explore collective battery recharge management for autonomous industrial vehicles (AIVs) in an airport environment. This approach offers adaptability and resilience through a distributed system, taking into account variations in AIV battery capacity. Simulation scenarios were based on a proposed charging/discharging model for an AIV battery. The results highlight the effectiveness of adaptive fuzzy multi-agent models in optimizing charging strategies, improving operational efficiency, and reducing energy consumption. Dynamic factors such as workload variations and AIV-infrastructure communication are taken into account in the form of heuristics, underlining the importance of flexible and collaborative approaches in autonomous systems. In particular, an infrastructure capable of optimizing charging according to energy tariffs can significantly reduce consumption during peak hours, highlighting the importance of such strategies in dynamic environments. An optimal control model is established to improve the energy consumption of each AIV during its mission. The energy consumption depends on the speed, as demonstrated via numerical simulations using realistic data. The speed profile of each AIV is adjusted according to the various constraints within an airport. Overall, the study highlights the potential of incorporating adaptive fuzzy multi-agent models for AIV energy management to boost efficiency and sustainability in industrial operations.
