Introducting Dendritic Cells as a Novel Immune-Inspired Algorithm for Anomaly Detection
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Greensmith, J., Aickelin, U., & Cayzer, S. Introducting Dendritic Cells as a Novel Immune-Inspired Algorithm for Anomaly Detection.

Dendritic cells are antigen presenting cells that provide a
vital link between the innate and adaptive immune system. Research into this family of cells has revealed that they perform the role of coordinating T-cell based immune responses, both reac... Read More about Introducting Dendritic Cells as a Novel Immune-Inspired Algorithm for Anomaly Detection.

Integrating real-time analysis with the dendritic cell algorithm through segmentation
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gu, F., Greensmith, J., & Aickelin, U. (in press). Integrating real-time analysis with the dendritic cell algorithm through segmentation.

As an immune inspired algorithm, the Dendritic Cell Algorithm (DCA) has been applied to a range of problems, particularly in the area of intrusion detection. Ideally, the intrusion detection should be performed in real-time, to continuously detect mi... Read More about Integrating real-time analysis with the dendritic cell algorithm through segmentation.

Variance in system dynamics and agent based modelling using the SIR model of infectious diseases
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Ahmed, A., Greensmith, J., & Aickelin, U. Variance in system dynamics and agent based modelling using the SIR model of infectious diseases.

Classical deterministic simulations of epidemiological processes, such as those based on System Dynamics, produce a single result based on a fixed set of input parameters with no variance between simulations. Input parameters are subsequently modifie... Read More about Variance in system dynamics and agent based modelling using the SIR model of infectious diseases.

PCA 4 DCA: the application of principal component analysis to the Dendritic Cell Algorithm
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gu, F., Greensmith, J., Oates, R., & Aickelin, U. PCA 4 DCA: the application of principal component analysis to the Dendritic Cell Algorithm.

As one of the newest members in the field of articial immune systems (AIS), the Dendritic Cell Algorithm (DCA) is
based on behavioural models of natural dendritic cells (DCs). Unlike other AIS, the DCA does not rely on training data, instead domain... Read More about PCA 4 DCA: the application of principal component analysis to the Dendritic Cell Algorithm.

The DCA:SOMe comparison: a comparative study between two biologically-inspired algorithms
Journal Article
Greensmith, J., Feyereisl, J., & Aickelin, U. The DCA:SOMe comparison: a comparative study between two biologically-inspired algorithms. Evolutionary Intelligence, 1(2), https://doi.org/10.1007/s12065-008-0008-6

The dendritic cell algorithm (DCA) is an immune-inspired algorithm, developed for the purpose of anomaly detection. The algorithm performs multi-sensor data fusion and correlation which results in a ‘context aware’ detection system. Previous applicat...

Dendritic Cells for Anomaly Detection
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Greensmith, J., Twycross, J., & Aickelin, U. Dendritic Cells for Anomaly Detection.

Artificial immune systems, more specifically the negative selection algorithm, have previously been applied to intrusion detection. The aim of this research is to develop
an intrusion detection system based on a novel concept in
immunology, the Dan... Read More about Dendritic Cells for Anomaly Detection.

Articulation and Clarification of the Dendric Cell Algorithm
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Greensmith, J., Aickelin, U., & Twycross, J. Articulation and Clarification of the Dendric Cell Algorithm.

The Dendritic Cell algorithm (DCA) is inspired by recent
work in innate immunity. In this paper a formal description of the DCA is given. The DCA is described in detail, and its use as an anomaly detector is illustrated within the context of compute... Read More about Articulation and Clarification of the Dendric Cell Algorithm.

The Application of a Dendric Cell Algorithm to a Robotic Classifier
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Oates, R., Greensmith, J., Aickelin, U., Garibaldi, J., & Kendall, G. The Application of a Dendric Cell Algorithm to a Robotic Classifier.

The dendritic cell algorithm is an immune-inspired technique for processing time-dependant data. Here we propose it as a possible solution for a robotic classification problem. The dendritic cell algorithm is implemented on a real robot and an invest... Read More about The Application of a Dendric Cell Algorithm to a Robotic Classifier.
