Dr. James Henrydoss

I am a Ph.D. graduate from the Computer Science Department advised by professor Dr. Terrance E. Boult. I also worked as a research assistant at the Vision And Security Technology (VAST) lab at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs (UCCS). My research work lies at the intersection of network security and machine learning.

Ph.D. dissertation: Open-Set Intrusion Recognition System using Extreme Value Machine.

I have developed an Open-Set Recognition (OSR) based machine learning object detection system that can identify unknown security incursions. As a part of this work, I have developed a new state-of-the-art open-set based machine learning classifiers, Clustering-enabled Extreme Value Machine (C-EVM), and Faster-Extreme Value Machine (F-EVM) that are yielding better and faster prediction performances in an open-set environment. These newly developed models are useful in deploying machine learning-based intrusion detection systems and can be used for computer vision recognition applications.

I have research interests in the following areas: Machine Learning and network security, computer vision, and pattern recognition and mobile computing (LTE and 5G), cloud and wireless security.

My focus is to develop new machine learning algorithms for object recognition using Open-Set Recognition (OSR) models for network security and computer vision applications.
