DAIRE: Lightweight AI model for real-time CAN attack detection in IoV

ai-technology · 2026-04-24

Researchers have introduced DAIRE (Detecting Attacks in IoV in REal-time), an efficient machine learning framework designed for the immediate detection and classification of Controller Area Network (CAN) attacks within the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). Utilizing a streamlined artificial neural network (ANN), DAIRE structures each layer with Ni = i x c neurons (where i represents the layer index and c denotes the number of attack classes). Empirical methods are used to set other hyperparameters for real-time functionality. The model focuses on various attacks, including Denial-of-Service, Fuzzy, and Spoofing, and utilizes sparse categorical cross-entropy loss. This framework tackles significant security vulnerabilities in CAN communication, which is prone to cyber threats. The findings are available on arXiv (ID: 2604.20771).
