Abstract
Described is a system for detecting attacks of misinformation on communication networks. Network controllability metrics on a graphical representation of a communication network are computed. Changes in the network controllability metrics are detected, and attack of misinformation on the communication network are detected based on the detected changes in the network controllability metrics.
Claims21
A system for detecting attacks of misinformation on communication networks, the system comprising:
- one or more processors and a non-transitory memory having instructions encoded, thereon such that when the instructions are executed, the one or more processors perform operations of:
- computing a plurality of network controllability metrics on a representation of a communication network comprising a plurality, of nodes;
- detecting changes in the plurality of network controllability metrics;
- and
- using the detected changes to detect attacks of misinformation on the communication network.
A computer-implemented method for detecting attacks of misinformation on communication networks, comprising:
- an act of causing one or more processors to execute instructions stored on a non-transitory memory such that upon execution, the one or more processors perform operations of:
- computing a plurality of network controllability metrics on a representation of a communication network comprising a plurality of nodes;
- detecting changes in the plurality of network controllability metrics;
- and
- using the detected changes to detect attacks of misinformation on the communication network.
A computer program product for detecting attacks of misinformation on communication networks, the computer program product comprising:
- computer-readable instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable medium that are executable by a computer having one or more processors for causing the processor to perform operations of:
- computing a plurality of network controllability metrics on a representation of a communication network comprising a plurality of nodes;
- detecting changes in the plurality of network controllability metrics;
- and
- using the detected changes to detect attacks of misinformation on the communication network.
