Parameters Efficient Language Model with Latent Cross-Attention for IoT Intrusion Detection

Language models have shown strong potential for intrusion detection, but their high memory and computational demands make them difficult to deploy in resource-constrained IoT environments. In this work, we propose a compact Transformer-based architecture that compresses the input into a small...

Beyond Detection Accuracy: Measuring Explanation Cost, Stability, and Utility for Resource-Aware IoT Intrusion Detection

Machine-learning intrusion-detection studies commonly emphasize predictive accuracy while treating explanation generation as a computationally free post-processing step. This study jointly evaluates predictive effectiveness, explanation cost, local explanation stability, and selective explanation...
