Random Forrest Based Man-in-the-Middle Attack Detection in Advanced Metering Infrastructure
Abstract: Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) plays a central role in the operation of modern smart grid (SG) systems by enabling continuous, two-way communication between utility providers and consumers. Through this communication, AMI supports real-time monitoring, dynamic pricing, and efficient energy management. However, the same connectivity that makes AMI effective also increases its exposure to cyber threats. One of the most critical threats is the man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack, in which an attacker …

Application of Compressive Sensing for Sampling and Reconstruction of MRI Images
Abstract: In recent years, a new theory of compressive sensing has evolved which asserts that super resolved signals and images can be recovered with far fewer samples than that demanded by the Nyquist sampling theorem. It is required that the signal being sensed has a low information-rate meaning that it is sparse in original or some transform domain. Former approaches capture the complete signal and process it to extract the information. …
