NETWORK INTRUSION DETECTION VIA KNOWLEDGE DISTILLATION - CSE-CIC-IDS2018
TabNet Teacher → Multiple Student Models Comparison (Publication Ready Version)

CORRECTED VERSION - Fixed all critical bugs and added missing components

This implementation includes:

- TabNet (attention-based deep learning) as a high-accuracy teacher
- EBM Student (with Knowledge Distillation)
- EBM Baseline (without KD - hard labels only)
- MLP Student (with Knowledge Distillation)
- Logistic Regression Baseline (traditional interpretable model)
- Comprehensive, publication-ready visualizations and reporting

Dataset: CSE-CIC-IDS2018 (Full Dataset)

Requirements: See [Link]
Hardware: High-performance GPU with TF32 support recommended
