Improving intrusion detection for better anomaly detection based on x-means clustering and multi-layer perceptron classification

Due to excessive usage of network communication through the Internet with sensitive data in recent years, providing competent security medium to secure this data has become the most matters to be considered. One of the significant security mediums is an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) which o...
