Abstract | ||
Traffic classification is one of the most important network monitoring processes that has wide applications in the fields of security, quality of service, and network management. With the increasing complexity and variety of network traffic, new challenges arise, including the lack of labeled training data. In order to solve this challenge, in this paper, a traffic classification mechanism is presented by combining unsupervised and semi-supervised machine learning algorithms. This mechanism uses a limited set of labeled training data to improve classification accuracy. The proposed method describes each traffic flow as a feature vector that contains the statistical characteristics of that flow. The number of features generated for each sample is reduced using principal component analysis. DBScan clustering is used to determine the correct traffic type for each untagged traffic stream. Finally, the gamma classifier model is used to separate the new traffic flows. The efficiency of the proposed method has been evaluated using real data sets. The results show that the proposed method is able to classify traffic flows with an average accuracy of 95.12%, which shows at least 7.03% improvement over previous approaches. | ||
