Enhancing intrusion detection performance using explainable ensemble deep learning.

ABSTRACT: Given the exponential growth of available data in large networks, the need for an accurate and explainable intrusion detection system has become of high necessity to effectively discover attacks in such networks. To deal with this challenge, we propose a two-phase Explainable Ensemble deep learning-based method (EED) for intrusion detection. In the first phase, a new ensemble intrusion detection model using three one-dimensional long short-term memory networks (LSTM) is designed for an accurate attack identification. The outputs of three classifiers are aggregated using a meta-learner algorithm resulting in refined and improved results. In the second phase, interpretability and explainability of EED outputs are enhanced by leveraging the capabilities of SHape Additive exPplanations (SHAP).
