    A Statistical Model for Phase Difference Spectrum of Ground-Motion and Its Application in Generating Non-Stationary Seismic Waves

    Dongsheng Du1,*, Sheng Shi1, Weizhi Xu1, Chen Kong2, Shuguang Wang1, Weiwei Li1

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.124, No.1, pp. 265-285, 2020, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2020.09151 - 19 June 2020

    Abstract The intensity non-stationarity is one of the most important features of earthquake records. Modeling of this feature is significant to the generation of arti- ficial earthquake waves. Based on the theory of phase difference spectrum, an intensity non-stationary envelope function with log-normal form is proposed. Through a tremendous amount of earthquake records downloaded on Kik-net, a parameter fitting procedure using the genetic algorithm is conducted to obtain the value of model parameters under different magnitudes, epicenter distances and site conditions. A numerical example is presented to describe the procedure of generating fully non-stationary ground motions More >

    Privacy-Preserving Genetic Algorithm Outsourcing in Cloud Computing

    Leqi Jiang1, 2, Zhangjie Fu1, 2, *

    Journal of Cyber Security, Vol.2, No.1, pp. 49-61, 2020, DOI:10.32604/jcs.2020.09308

    Abstract Genetic Algorithm (GA) has been widely used to solve various optimization problems. As the solving process of GA requires large storage and computing resources, it is well motivated to outsource the solving process of GA to the cloud server. However, the algorithm user would never want his data to be disclosed to cloud server. Thus, it is necessary for the user to encrypt the data before transmitting them to the server. But the user will encounter a new problem. The arithmetic operations we are familiar with cannot work directly in the ciphertext domain. In this More >

    An Amorphous 2-Dimensional Barcode

    Han Jin1, Shi Jin2, *, Junfeng Wu2

    Journal of Cyber Security, Vol.2, No.1, pp. 37-48, 2020, DOI:10.32604/jcs.2020.07209

    Abstract Most existing 2-dimensional barcodes are designed with a fixed shape and clear area. Having a fixed shape and clear area makes the barcode difficult to lay out with other text and pictures. To solve this problem, an amorphous 2-dimensional barcode is presented in this paper. The barcode uses encoding graph units to encode data. There are two key points in a 2-dimensional barcode: One is the encoding graph unit, the other is its encoding rules. Because encoding graph units of a 2-dimensional barcode are surrounded by other graphics, the units should be self-positioned and distinguished… More >

    Smart Contract Fuzzing Based on Taint Analysis and Genetic Algorithms

    Zaoyu Wei1, *, Jiaqi Wang2, Xueqi Shen1, Qun Luo1

    Journal of Quantum Computing, Vol.2, No.1, pp. 11-24, 2020, DOI:10.32604/jqc.2020.010815 - 28 May 2020

    Abstract Smart contract has greatly improved the services and capabilities of blockchain, but it has become the weakest link of blockchain security because of its code nature. Therefore, efficient vulnerability detection of smart contract is the key to ensure the security of blockchain system. Oriented to Ethereum smart contract, the study solves the problems of redundant input and low coverage in the smart contract fuzz. In this paper, a taint analysis method based on EVM is proposed to reduce the invalid input, a dangerous operation database is designed to identify the dangerous input, and genetic algorithm More >

    Weak Fault Diagnosis of Rolling Bearing Based on Improved Stochastic Resonance

    Xiaoping Zhao1, 4, Yifei Wang2, *, Yonghong Zhang2, Jiaxin Wu1, Yunqing Shi3

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.64, No.1, pp. 571-587, 2020, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2020.06363 - 08 April 2019

    Abstract Stochastic resonance can use noise to enhance weak signals, effectively reducing the effect of noise signals on feature extraction. In order to improve the early fault recognition rate of rolling bearings, and to overcome the shortcomings of lack of interaction in the selection of SR (Stochastic Resonance) method parameters and the lack of validation of the extracted features, an adaptive genetic random resonance early fault diagnosis method for rolling bearings was proposed. compared with the existing methods, the AGSR (Adaptive Genetic Stochastic Resonance) method uses genetic algorithms to optimize the system parameters, and further optimizes More >

    KAEA: A Novel Three-Stage Ensemble Model for Software Defect Prediction

    Nana Zhang1, Kun Zhu1, Shi Ying1, *, Xu Wang2

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.64, No.1, pp. 471-499, 2020, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2020.010117 - 20 May 2020

    Abstract Software defect prediction is a research hotspot in the field of software engineering. However, due to the limitations of current machine learning algorithms, we can’t achieve good effect for defect prediction by only using machine learning algorithms. In previous studies, some researchers used extreme learning machine (ELM) to conduct defect prediction. However, the initial weights and biases of the ELM are determined randomly, which reduces the prediction performance of ELM. Motivated by the idea of search based software engineering, we propose a novel software defect prediction model named KAEA based on kernel principal component analysis… More >

    Cooperative Perception Optimization Based on Self-Checking Machine Learning

    Haoxiang Sun1, *, Changxing Chen1, Yunfei Ling1, Mu Yang1

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.62, No.2, pp. 747-761, 2020, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2020.05625

    Abstract In the process of spectrum perception, in order to realize accurate perception of the channel state, the method of multi-node cooperative perception can usually be used. However, the first problem to be considered is how to complete information fusion and obtain more accurate and reliable judgment results based on multi-node perception results. The ideas put forward in this paper are as follows: firstly, the perceived results of each node are obtained on the premise of limiting detection probability and false alarm probability. Then, on the one hand, the weighted fusion criterion of decision-making weight optimization… More >

    A Novel Two-Level Optimization Strategy for Multi-Debris Active Removal Mission in LEO

    Junfeng Zhao1, 2, Weiming Feng1, Jianping Yuan2, 3, *

    CMES-Computer Modeling in Engineering & Sciences, Vol.122, No.1, pp. 149-174, 2020, DOI:10.32604/cmes.2020.07504 - 01 January 2020

    Abstract Recent studies of the space debris environment in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) have shown that the critical density of space debris has been reached in certain regions. The Active Debris Removal (ADR) mission, to mitigate the space debris density and stabilize the space debris environment, has been considered as a most effective method. In this paper, a novel two-level optimization strategy for multi-debris removal mission in LEO is proposed, which includes the low-level and high-level optimization process. To improve the overall performance of the multi-debris active removal mission and obtain multiple Pareto-optimal solutions, the ADR… More >

    Intelligent Automation & Soft Computing, Vol.25, No.4, pp. 815-825, 2019, DOI:10.31209/2019.100000085

    Abstract In this paper, we proposed a hybrid algorithm, which is embedding the genetic operators in the global-best-guided artificial bee colony algorithms called GABCGA to solve the nonlinear design optimization problems. The genetic algorithm has no memory function and good at find global optimization with large probability, but the artificial bee colony algorithm not have selection, crossover and mutation operator and most significant at local search. The hybrid algorithm balances the exploration and exploitation ability further by combining the advantages of both. The experimental results of five engineering optimization and comparisons with existing approaches show that More >
