SIR-Aided Secure Transmission and Attack Detection for Security Management of Nonlinear Cyber-Physical System Using GRU Autoencoder
Abstract
This article designs a data-driven unsupervised defense scheme for nonlinear systems by proposing a machine learning approach called gate recurrent unit-based modified denoising and stable image representation-aided autoencoders. The proposed scheme decomposes original data into two subspaces through orthogonal projection. For secure transmission, information related to the system's dynamics, which is in the image space of the controlled system, is hidden through filtering, whereas only the dynamic-independent information is plaintext for transmission, which supplements the cryptographic encryption methods from a control perspective. Moreover, attack detection for nonstealthy and stealthy attacks is achieved simultaneously under the same framework. A case study is conducted for validation on the a hardware-in-the-loop platform with a mecanum-wheeled vehicle. The comparative experiments with well-known unsupervised data-driven methods show the high detection accuracy of the proposed defense scheme for nonstealthy and stealthy attacks and the excellent encryption capability.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
