Support vector data description with kernel density estimation (SVDD-KDE) control chart for network intrusion monitoring

Multivariate control charts have been applied in many sectors. One of the sectors that employ this method is network intrusion detection. However, the issue arises when the conventional control chart faces difficulty monitoring the network-traffic data that do not follow a normal distribution as req...
