Abstract Artificial intelligence has been involved in several domains. Despite the advantages of using artificial intelligence techniques, some crucial limitations prevent them from being implemented in specific domains and locations. The accuracy, poor quality of gathered data, and processing time are considered major concerns in implementing machine learning techniques, certainly in low-end smart devices. This paper aims to introduce a novel pre-treatment technique dedicated to image text detection that uses the images’ pixel divergence and similarity to reduce the image size. Mitigating the image size while keeping its features improves the model training time with an… More >

Abstract The study of gene expression has emerged as a vital tool for cancer diagnosis and prognosis, particularly with the advent of microarray technology that enables the measurement of thousands of genes in a single sample. While this wealth of data offers invaluable insights for disease management, the high dimensionality poses a challenge for multiclass classification. In this context, selecting relevant features becomes essential to enhance classification model performance. Swarm Intelligence algorithms have proven effective in addressing this challenge, owing to their ability to navigate intricate, non-linear feature-class relationships. This paper introduces a novel hybrid swarm More >

Abstract Existing multiple workflow scheduling techniques focus on traditional Quality of Service (QoS) parameters such as cost, deadline, and makespan to find optimal solutions by consuming a large amount of electrical energy. Higher energy consumption decreases system efficiency, increases operational cost, and generates more carbon footprint. These major problems can lead to several problems, such as economic strain, environmental degradation, resource depletion, energy dependence, health impacts, etc. In a cloud computing environment, scheduling multiple workflows is critical in developing a strategy for energy optimization, which is an NP-hard problem. This paper proposes a novel, bi-phase Energy-Efficient… More >

Abstract System calls are essential interfaces that enable applications to access and utilize the operating system’s services and resources. Attackers frequently exploit application’s vulnerabilities and misuse system calls to execute malicious code, aiming to elevate privileges and so on. Consequently, restricting the misuse of system calls becomes a crucial measure in ensuring system security. It is an effective method known as reducing the attack surface. Existing attack surface reduction techniques construct a global whitelist of system calls for the entire lifetime of the application, which is coarse-grained. In this paper, we propose a Fine-grained Function-level framework… More >

Abstract Text mining presents unique challenges in extracting meaningful information from the vast volumes of digital documents. Traditional filter feature selection methods often fall short in handling the complexities of short text data. To address this issue, this paper presents a novel approach to feature selection in text classification, aiming to overcome challenges posed by high dimensionality and reduced accuracy in the face of increasing digital document volumes. Unlike traditional filter feature selection techniques, the proposed method, Multivariate Relevance Frequency Analysis, offers a tailored solution for diverse text data types. By integrating positive, negative, and dependency… More >

Abstract Nowadays, construction site safety accidents are frequent, and wearing safety helmets is essential to prevent head injuries caused by object collisions and falls. However, existing helmet detection algorithms have several drawbacks, including a complex structure with many parameters, high calculation volume, and poor detection of small helmets, making deployment on embedded or mobile devices difficult. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a YOLOv5-based multi-head detection safety helmet detection algorithm that is faster and more robust for detecting helmets on construction sites. By replacing the traditional DarkNet backbone network of YOLOv5s with a new backbone… More >

Abstract Internet cloud services come at a price, especially when they provide top-tier security measures. The cost incurred by cloud utilization is directly proportional to the storage requirements. Companies are always looking to increase profits and reduce costs while preserving the security of their data by encrypting them. One of the offered solutions is to find an efficient encryption method that can store data in a much smaller space than traditional encryption techniques. This article introduces a novel encryption approach centered on consolidating information into a single ciphertext by implementing Multi-Key Embedded Encryption (MKEE). The effectiveness… More >
