Jie Liu, XingSheng Qin, F. Jiang · 2022
The advent of the digital age and the internet has recently seen a corresponding increase in security concerns. Intrusion detection systems are one of the crucial factors to consider in today’s digital world. This paper proposes a metaheuristic algorithm based on quantum differential evolution with multiple strategies. This algorithm proposes a new differential mutation strategy approach to improve the search capability and convergence speed. Then, a quantum rotation gate is used to perform the secondary evolution of the population. Finally, various benchmark functions are chosen to demonstrate the optimization ability of the algorithm. The experimental results show that the model outperforms differential evolution and quantum differential evolution. And has better optimization capability, efficiency and stability. This evolutionary technique plays an important role in identifying network intrusions and security attacks.
