Keyven/CanDefender-Fuzzy

CANDefender – Fuzzy Attack Detection Model

Model Summary
This model detects Fuzzy attacks on the CAN bus. It was trained on 4.73 million real CAN frames, including normal data and Fuzzy-labeled data. The model uses an LSTM architecture that processes the CAN ID and 8-byte payload to classify each frame as either “Fuzzy” or “Normal.”

---

Performance

Test Accuracy: ~94.09%
Confusion Matrix (Fuzzy vs. Normal):

True \ Pred	Fuzzy (pred)	Normal (pred)
Fuzzy	3,737,645	13,379
Normal	266,808	722,063

• Recall (Fuzzy): ~99.6% (very few Fuzzy frames missed)
• Recall (Normal): ~73% (about 27% false positives on Normal)

---

Intended Use

• Goal: Real-time detection of Fuzzy attacks on the CAN bus.
• Limitations:
  • Focused on Fuzzy vs. Normal classification only (other attacks handled in separate models).
  • Tends to misclassify ~27% of normal frames as Fuzzy (relatively high false alarms).

How to Use

import torch
import numpy as np
from can_defender_fuzzy import CANLSTM  # Adjust import name

# Example frame => [CAN_ID, b0..b7]
frame = [0x315, 0x12, 0x4F, 0xA2, 0x00, 0x00, 0x78, 0x1C, 0xAA]

x_np = np.array(frame, dtype=np.float32).reshape(1,1,9)

model = CANLSTM(input_dim=9, hidden_dim=64, num_classes=2)
model.load_state_dict(torch.load("can_lstm_model_final.pt"))
model.eval()

with torch.no_grad():
    logits = model(torch.from_numpy(x_np))
    pred = torch.argmax(logits, dim=1).item()
    print("Prediction:", "Fuzzy" if pred == 0 else "Normal")

Training Configuration

• Architecture: LSTM (64 hidden units), final linear layer → 2 classes (Fuzzy vs. Normal)
• Optimizer: Adam (lr=1e-3)
• Epochs: ~30 (stopped once performance stabilized)
• Dataset: 4.73 million CAN frames

Limitations & Next Steps

• False Positives: ~27% of normal frames get labeled as Fuzzy. Acceptable for high-sensitivity scenarios, but can be improved (weighted loss, time-window approach, etc.).
• Scope: Only focuses on Fuzzy detection. Other attacks (DoS, Gear, RPM) are separate.

Potential Enhancements:

• Weighted training or additional features (delta-time, frequency)
• Window-based LSTM or transformers for sequence data
