| Abstract | Software-Defined Networking (SDN) plays a crucial role in enabling scalable and programmable infrastructures for smart cities. However, its centralized and open architecture is increasingly vulnerable to security threats, especially with the growing complexity of network traffic. This paper proposes a novel approach called Optimized Efficient Predefined Time Adaptive Neural Network for accurate and adaptive stream traffic classification in SDN environments (EPTANN-STC-SDN). The proposed framework addresses imbalanced traffic data using a Multi-Observation Fusion Kalman Filter (MOFKF) and enhances feature selection using Secretary Bird Optimization Algorithm (SBOA). The classification is performed with the help of Efficient Predefined Time Adaptive Neural Network (EPTANN), whose parameters are fine-tuned under the Bitterling Fish Optimization Algorithm (BFOA) to enhance the accuracy and generalization. The experimental results demonstrate that the EPTANN-STC-SDN significantly outperforms existing methods, achieving up to 33.82% higher accuracy, 31.48% improvement in kappa and 33.02% better precision over leading baseline models. The proposed model contributes to both academic research and practical SDN deployments by enabling more secure, efficient and intelligent traffic management in modern networks. © 2025 |
