Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) has enabled various intelligent services, and IoT service range has been steadily extended through long range wide area communication technologies, which enable very long distance wireless data transmission. End-nodes are connected to a gateway with a single hop. They consume very low-power, using very low data rate to deliver data. Since long transmission time is consequently needed for each data packet transmission in long range wide area networks, data transmission should be efficiently performed. Therefore, this paper proposes a multicast uplink data transmission mechanism particularly for bad network conditions. Transmission delay will be increased if… More >

Abstract Huffman [Huffman (1952)] encoding is one of the most known compression algorithms. In its basic use, only one encoding is given for the same letter in text to compress. In this paper, a text compression algorithm that is based on Huffman encoding is proposed. Huffman encoding is used to give different encodings for the same letter depending on the prefix preceding it in the word. A deterministic finite automaton (DFA) that recognizes the words of the text is constructed. This DFA records the frequencies for letters that label the transitions. Every state will correspond to one of the prefixes of… More >

Abstract In this study, we applied a defined auxiliary problem in a novel error estimation technique to estimate the numerical error in the method of fundamental solutions (MFS) for solving the Helmholtz equation. The defined auxiliary problem is substituted for the real problem, and its analytical solution is generated using the complementary solution set of the governing equation. By solving the auxiliary problem and comparing the solution with the quasianalytical solution, an error curve of the MFS versus the source location parameters can be obtained. Thus, the optimal location parameter can be identified. The convergent numerical solution can be obtained and… More >

Abstract In this paper, the supervised Deep Neural Network (DNN) based signal detection is analyzed for combating with nonlinear distortions efficiently and improving error performances in clipping based Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) ssystem. One of the main disadvantages for the OFDM is the high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR). The clipping is a simple method for the PAPR reduction. However, an effect of the clipping is nonlinear distortion, and estimations for transmitting symbols are difficult despite a Maximum Likelihood (ML) detection at the receiver. The DNN based online signal detection uses the offline learning model where all weights and… More >

Abstract Strip Wireless Sensor Networks (SWSNs) have drawn much attention in many applications such as monitoring rivers, highways and coal mines. Packet delivery in SWSN usually requires a large number of multi-hop transmissions which leads to long transmission latency in low-duty-cycle SWSNs. Several pipeline scheduling schemes have been proposed to reduce latency. However, when communication links are unreliable, pipeline scheduling is prone to failure. In this paper, we propose a pipeline scheduling transmission protocol based on constructive interference. The protocol first divides the whole network into multiple partitions and uses a pipelined mechanism to allocate active time slots for each partition.… More >

To address this, a novel SSL algorithm based on deep neural network (DNN) using steered response power-phase transform (SRP-PHAT) spatial spectrum as input feature is presented in this paper. Since the SRP-PHAT spatial power spectrum contains spatial location information, it is adopted as the input feature for sound source localization. DNN is exploited to extract the efficient location information from SRP-PHAT spatial power spectrum due to its advantage on extracting high-level features. SRP-PHAT at each steering position within a frame is arranged into a vector, which… More >

However, these detection techniques are mainly based on text features and have weak detection capabilities across programs. Compared with the uncertainty of the code and text caused by the developer’s personalization, the programming language has a stricter logical specification, which reflects the rules and requirements of the language itself and the developer’s potential way of thinking.

Abstract To measure the security for hot searched reversible data hiding (RDH) technique, especially for the common-used histogram-shifting based RDH (denoted as HS-RDH), several steganalysis schemes are designed to detect whether some secret data has been hidden in a normal-looking image. However, conventional steganalysis schemes focused on the previous RDH algorithms, i.e., some early spatial/pixel domain-based histogram-shifting (HS) schemes, which might cause great changes in statistical characteristics and thus be easy to be detected. For recent improved methods, such as some adaptive prediction error (PE) based embedding schemes, those conventional schemes might be invalid, since those adaptive embedding mechanism would effectively… More >

Abstract Arranging multiple identical sub-arrays in a special way can enhance degrees of freedom (DOFs) and obtain a hole-free difference co-array (DCA). In this paper, by adjusting the interval of adjacent sub-arrays, a kind of generalized array architecture with larger aperture is proposed. Although some holes may exist in the DCA of the proposed array, they are distributed uniformly. Utilizing the partial continuity of the DCA, an extended covariance matrix can be constructed. Singular value decomposition (SVD) is used to obtain an extended signal sub-space, by which the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation algorithm for quasi-stationary signals is given. In order to eliminating… More >

Abstract Nowadays cloud architecture is widely applied on the internet. New malware aiming at the privacy data stealing or crypto currency mining is threatening the security of cloud platforms. In view of the problems with existing application behavior monitoring methods such as coarse-grained analysis, high performance overhead and lack of applicability, this paper proposes a new fine-grained binary program monitoring and analysis method based on multiple system level components, which is used to detect the possible privacy leakage of applications installed on cloud platforms. It can be used online in cloud platform environments for fine-grained automated analysis of target programs, ensuring… More >

Abstract Deep learning networks are widely used in various systems that require classification. However, deep learning networks are vulnerable to adversarial attacks. The study on adversarial attacks plays an important role in defense. Black-box attacks require less knowledge about target models than white-box attacks do, which means black-box attacks are easier to launch and more valuable. However, the state-of-arts black-box attacks still suffer in low success rates and large visual distances between generative adversarial images and original images. This paper proposes a kind of fast black-box attack based on the cross-correlation (FBACC) method. The attack is carried out in two stages.… More >

Abstract The translation quality of neural machine translation (NMT) systems depends largely on the quality of large-scale bilingual parallel corpora available. Research shows that under the condition of limited resources, the performance of NMT is greatly reduced, and a large amount of high-quality bilingual parallel data is needed to train a competitive translation model. However, not all languages have large-scale and high-quality bilingual corpus resources available. In these cases, improving the quality of the corpora has become the main focus to increase the accuracy of the NMT results. This paper proposes a new method to improve the quality of data by… More >

Abstract In actual exploration, the demand for 3D seismic data collection is increasing, and the requirements for data are becoming higher and higher. Accordingly, the collection cost and data volume also increase. Aiming at this problem, we make use of the nature of data sparse expression, based on the theory of compressed sensing, to carry out the research on the efficient collection method of seismic data. It combines the collection of seismic data and the compression in data processing in practical work, breaking through the limitation of the traditional sampling frequency, and the sparse characteristics of the seismic signal are utilized… More >

Abstract Loop free alternate (LFA) is a routing protection scheme that is currently deployed in commercial routers. However, LFA cannot handle all single network component failure scenarios in traditional networks. As Internet service providers have begun to deploy software defined network (SDN) technology, the Internet will be in a hybrid SDN network where traditional and SDN devices coexist for a long time. Therefore, this study aims to deploy the LFA scheme in hybrid SDN network architecture to handle all possible single network component failure scenarios. First, the deployment of LFA scheme in a hybrid SDN network is described as a 0-1… More >
