Popis: The key point in the process of agent-based management in e-service for malware detection (according to accuracy criteria) is a decision-making process. To determine the optimal e-service for malware detection, two concepts were investigated: Fuzzy Logic (FL) and Probabilistic Neural Networks (PNN). In this study, three evolutionary variants of fuzzy partitioning, including regular, hierarchical fuzzy partitioning, and k-means, were used to automatically process the design of the fuzzy partition. Also, this study demonstrates the application of a feature selection method to reduce the dimensionality of the data by removing irrelevant features to create fuzzy logic in a dataset. The behaviors of malware are analyzed by fuzzifying relevant features for pattern recognition. The Apriori algorithm was applied to the fuzzified features to find the fuzzy-based rules, and these rules were used for predicting the output of malware detection e-services. Probabilistic neural networks were also used to find the ideal agent-based model for numerous classification problems. The numerical results show that the agent-based management performances trained with the clustering method achieve an accuracy of 100% with the PNN-MCD model. This is followed by the FL model, which classifies on the basis of linguistic variables and achieves an average accuracy of 82%.
