Item Exopolysaccharide-producing lactic acid bacteria strains from traditional thai fermented foods: Isolation, identification and exopolysaccharide characterization(1999) T. Smitinont; C. Tansakul; S. Tanasupawat; S. Keeratipibul; L. Navarini; M. Bosco; P. Cescutti; T. Smitinont; Natl. Ctr. for Genet. Eng./Biotech., Natl. Sci./Technol. Devmt. Agency, Rajdhevee, Bangkok 10400, 73/1 Rama VI Road, Thailand; email: thita@biotec.or.thLactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) isolated from various traditional Thai fermented foods were screened for exopolysaccharides (EPS) production. From 104 isolates, two rod-shaped and five coccal-shaped LAB were able to produce EPS from sucrose on solid media. However, only the cocci were capable of producing EPS in liquid media and these were identified as Pediococcus pentosaceus. Pediococcus pentosaceus strains AP-1 and AP-3 produced EPS in high yield. In liquid media containing sucrose as carbon source, the amount of EPS produced by AP-1 and AP-3 strains was 6.0 and 2.5 g/L, respectively. The isolated and purified EPSs were chemically characterized. On the basis of sugar composition, methylation analysis and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, both the EPSs were shown to belong to the same dextran class. In particular, both EPSs differed from linear dextran by branching through 3,6-di-Osubstituted _-d-glucopyranosyl residues. The EPS from P. pentosaceus AP-3 was characterized by a relatively higher degree of branching and by a higher molecular weight than that from P. pentosaceus AP-1.Item Student attitudes to learning business statistics: Comparison of online and traditional methods(International Forum of Educational Technology and Society,National Taiwan Normal University, 2004) Pannee Suanpang; Peter Petocz; Walter Kalceff; P. Suanpang; Faculty of Science and Technology, Rajabhat Suan Dusit University, Bangkok, 10300, Thailand; email: dtechpannee@yahoo.comWorldwide, electronic learning (E-learning) has become an important part of the education agenda in the last decade. The Suan Dusit Rajabhat University (SDRU), Thailand has made significant efforts recently to use Internet technologies to enhance learning opportunities. The results reported here are part of a pioneering study to determine the effectiveness of a new online learning course in the subject "Business Statistics". This paper compares two groups of students, one studying using a traditional lecture-based approach, and the other studying using e-learning. The comparison is based on students' attitudes towards statistics measured using a validated questionnaire, both before and after the 16-week course, and for each of the modes of study. Comparisons are also made with students studying by distance, although the numbers in these groups are too small for sensible statistical analysis. The questionnaire data are augmented by material from interviews and other student reports of their experience. The results showed highly significant differences in attitudes towards statistics between the students studying online and the students using a traditional approach.Item Ultrastructural alterations in the liver and kidney of white sea bass, Lates calcarifer, in acute and subchronic cadmium exposure(2004) Suchada Thophon; Prayad Pokethitiyook; Kashane Chalermwat; E.

Disorganized brush borders and increased numbers of large hydropic vacuoles and lysosomes were also observed. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.Item Integrating genetic algorithms and fuzzy c-means for anomaly detection(2005) Witcha Chimphlee; Abdul Hanan Abdullah; Mohd Moor Md Sap; Siriporn Chimphlee; Surat Srinoy; W. Chimphlee; Faculty of Science and Technology, Suan Dusit Rajabhat University, Dusit, Bangkok, 295 Rajasrima Road, Thailand; email: witcha_chi@dusit.ac.thThe goal of intrusion detection is to discover unauthorized use of computer systems. New intrusion types, of which detection systems are unaware, are the most difficult to detect. The amount of available network audit data instances is usually large; human labeling is tedious, time-consuming, and expensive. Traditional anomaly detection algorithms require a set of purely normal data from which they train their model. In this paper we propose an intrusion detection method that combines Fuzzy Clustering and Genetic Algorithms. Clustering-based intrusion detection algorithm which trains on unlabeled data in order to detect new intrusions. Fuzzy c-Means allow objects to belong to several clusters simultaneously, with different degrees of membership. Genetic Algorithms (GA) to the problem of selection of optimized feature subsets to reduce the error caused by using land-selected features. Our method is able to detect many different types of intrusions, while maintaining a low false positive rate. We used data set from 1999 KDD intrusion detection contest. © 2005 IEEE.Item E-learning in Thailand: An analysis and case study(International Institute of Informatics and Systemics, IIIS, 2005) Pannee Suanpang; Jarinee SantijanyapornThis paper presents a discussion of E-Leaming in the context of Thailand using as an example a study carried out in a course in Business Statistics at Suan Dusit Rajabhat University (SDU), Thailand. The online course was a pioneering research project at SDU for studying the efficiency and effectiveness of the online learning system. The research conducted over 16 weeks compared online learning with traditional teaching. Aspects of students' learning outcomes have been analyzed, including quantitative features such as their grades and course evaluations, and this analysis is supported by qualitative features such as results of open-ended questionnaires, interviews and diaries. Results of the analysis show that students' outcomes were more favorable in the online groups than in the traditional groups. The large amount of rich qualitative information obtained highlights a range of reasons for this. The results of this study will be beneficial and useful for further research to develop effective and efficient online learning systems in Thailand, and in other countries with similar educational backgrounds to this country.Item An adaptive IDS model based on swarm intelligence and support vector machine(2006) Surat Srinoy; S. Srinoy; Faculty of Science and Technology, Suan Dusit Rajabhat University, Bangkok, Thailand; email: surat_sri@dusit.ac.thIntrusion detection system looks for unusual or suspicious activity, such as patterns of network traffics that are likely indicators of unauthorized activity. New intrusion types, of which detection systems are unaware, are the most difficult to detect. The amount of available network audit data instances is usually large, human labeling is tedious, time-consuming, and expensive. In this paper we present support vector machine approach to data clustering.

Sap; Surat Srinoy; Siriporn Chimphlee; W. Chimphlee; Faculty of Science and Technology, Suan Dusit Rajabhat University, Thailand; email: witcha_chi@dusit.ac.thIt is an important issue for the security of network to detect new intrusion attack and also to increase the detection rates and reduce false positive rates in Intrusion Detection System (IDS). Anomaly intrusion detection focuses on modeling normal behaviors and identifying significant deviations, which could be novel attacks. The normal and the suspicious behavior in computer networks are hard to predict as the boundaries between them cannot be well defined. We apply the idea of the Fuzzy Rough C-means (FRCM) to clustering analysis. FRCM integrates the advantage of fuzzy set theory and rough set theory that the improved algorithm to network intrusion detection.

Srinoy; Department Computer Science, Suan Dusit Rajabhat University, Thailand; email: surat_sri@dusit.ac.thThe Traditional intrusion detection systems (IDS) look for unusual or suspicious activity, such as patterns of network traffic that are likely indicators of unauthorized activity. However, normal operation often produces traffic that matches likely "attack signature", resulting in false alarms. One main drawback is the inability of detecting new attacks which do not have known signatures. In this paper we propose an intrusion detection method that proposes rough set based feature selection heuristics and using fuzzy ants for clustering data. Rough set has to decrease the amount of data and get rid of redundancy. Fuzzy ants clustering methods allow objects to belong to several clusters simultaneously, with different degrees of membership. Our approach allows us to recognize not only known attacks but also to detect suspicious activity that may be the result of a new, unknown attack.

A large amount of research has been done on trying to predict correctly the pages a user will request. This task requires the development of models that can predicts a user's next request to a web server. In this paper, we propose a method for constructing first-order and second-order Markov models of Web site access prediction based on past visitor behavior and compare it association rules technique. In these approaches, sequences of user requests are collected by the session identification technique, which distinguishes the requests for the same web page in different browses. We report experimental studies using real server log for comparison between methods and show that degree of precision. © 2006 Springer.Item An improving fuzzy ant clustering using artificial immune recognition system(2006) Werasak Kurutach; Surat Srinoy; Witcha Chimphlee; Siriporn ChimphleeWe present a swarm intelligence approach to data clustering.

Lorpunmanee; Faculty of Science and Technology, Suan Dusit Rajabhat University, Dusit, Bangkok, 295 Rajasrima Rd., Malaysia; email: siriluck_lor@dusit.ac.thGrid computing is the principle in utilizing and sharing large-scale resources of heterogeneous computing systems to solve the complex scientific problem. Such flexible resource request could offer the opportunity to optimize several parameters, such as coordinated resource sharing among dynamic collections of individuals, institutions, and resources. However, the major opportunity is in optimal job scheduling, which Grid nodes need to allocate the resources for each job. This paper proposes and evaluates a new method for job scheduling in heterogeneous computing Systems. Its objectives are to minimize the average waiting time and make-span time. The minimization is proposed by using a multiple objective genetic algorithm (GA), because the job scheduling problem is NP-hard problem. Our model presents the strategies of allocating jobs to different nodes. In this preliminary tests we show how the solution founded may minimize the average waiting time and the make-span time in Grid environment. The benefits of the usage of multiple objective genetic algorithm is improving the performance of the scheduling is discussed. The simulation has been obtained using historical information to study the job scheduling in Grid environment. The experimental results have shown that the scheduling system using the multiple objective genetic algorithms can allocate jobs efficiently and effectively.Item Intrusion detection via independent component analysis based on rough fuzzy(2006) Surat Srinoy; Werasak Kurutach; Witcha Chimphlee; Siriporn Chimphlee; Santi Sounsri; S.

By changing the optical parameters that result the change of the optical output intensities, the nonlinear behaviors such as bifurcation, chaos and bistability effects are occurred. The relationship between the optical parameters and output intensities are derived by varying the interested parameters such as coupling coefficient (_), nonlinear refractive index (n2), and linear phase shift (_0). The results obtained are presented and plotted showing that the optical parameters can be changed i.e. controlled, and then the nonlinear effects characteristics can be predicted and controlled. © 2006 IEEE.Item Combination artificial ant clustering and K-PSO clustering approach to network security model(2006) Surat Srinoy; Werasak Kurutach; S.

Sap; Siriporn Chimphlee; Surat Srinoy; W. Chimphlee; Faculty of Science and Technology, Suan Dusit Rajabhat University, Dusit, Bangkok, 295 Rajasrima Road, Thailand; email: witcha_chi@dusit.ac.thTo protect networks, intrusion detection systems aim to identify attacks with a high detection rate and a low false alarm rate. In this paper we propose an intrusion detection method that combines rule induction analysis for misuse detection and Fuzzy c-means for anomaly detection. Rule induction is used to generate patterns from data and finding a set of rules that satisfy some predefined criteria. Fuzzy c-Means allow objects to belong to several clusters simultaneously, with different degrees of membership. Our method is an accurate model for handle complex attack patterns in large networks. Empirical studies using the network security data set from the DARPA 1998 offline intrusion detection project (KDD 1999 Cup) show the feasibility of misuse and anomaly detection results.
