Title: Can
software tools accelerate electrification in the automotive industry?

Abstract:
User authentication is an important process that ensures only authorized
individuals can access a system or network infrastructure. This process
protects users' sensitive information from unauthorized access and prevents any
unwanted tampering. In this research paper, a unique method for authenticating
users based on typing dynamics has been proposed, aimed to enhance the security
of systems and networks by verifying user identities. This method involves
calculating the period of time each key is pressed and released. The study
includes data collection, feature extraction, model training, and performance
evaluation by measuring the accuracy and precision of the trained model. We
evaluated three deep-learning models to test the proposed method and determine
its accuracy, precision, and superiority among the three models. Based on the
findings of this research, we are able to present an algorithm which
outperforms the other two considered for the experiment. Also, a comparative
study is been presented after the first evaluation which involves assessing the
accuracies for different lengths of the password. Additionally, charts and
graphs were carefully employed to ensure precise representation and effective
visualization of the data.
