Abstract Hyperspectral image classification stands as a pivotal task within the field of remote sensing, yet achieving high-precision classification remains a significant challenge. In response to this challenge, a Spectral Convolutional Neural Network model based on Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm (AFLA-SCNN) is proposed. The Adaptive Fick’s Law Algorithm (AFLA) constitutes a novel metaheuristic algorithm introduced herein, encompassing three new strategies: Adaptive weight factor, Gaussian mutation, and probability update policy. With adaptive weight factor, the algorithm can adjust the weights according to the change in the number of iterations to improve the performance of the algorithm. Gaussian mutation helps the algorithm avoid… More >

Abstract Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) ranks third among the most common causes of blindness. As the most conventional and direct method for identifying AMD, color fundus photography has become prominent owing to its consistency, ease of use, and good quality in extensive clinical practice. In this study, a convolutional neural network (CSPDarknet53) was combined with a transformer to construct a new hybrid model, HCSP-Net. This hybrid model was employed to tri-classify color fundus photography into the normal macula (NM), dry macular degeneration (DMD), and wet macular degeneration (WMD) based on clinical classification manifestations, thus identifying and resolving AMD as early as… More >

Abstract In the last decade, technical advancements and faster Internet speeds have also led to an increasing number of mobile devices and users. Thus, all contributors to society, whether young or old members, can use these mobile apps. The use of these apps eases our daily lives, and all customers who need any type of service can access it easily, comfortably, and efficiently through mobile apps. Particularly, Saudi Arabia greatly depends on digital services to assist people and visitors. Such mobile devices are used in organizing daily work schedules and services, particularly during two large occasions, Umrah and Hajj. However, pilgrims… More >

Abstract A consumption of 46.9 million tons of processed tomatoes was reported in 2022 which is merely 20% of the total consumption. An increase of 3.3% in consumption is predicted from 2024 to 2032. Tomatoes are also rich in iron, potassium, antioxidant lycopene, vitamins A, C and K which are important for preventing cancer, and maintaining blood pressure and glucose levels. Thus, tomatoes are globally important due to their widespread usage and nutritional value. To face the high demand for tomatoes, it is mandatory to investigate the causes of crop loss and minimize them. Diseases are one of the major causes… More >

Abstract As industrialization and informatization become more deeply intertwined, industrial control networks have entered an era of intelligence. The connection between industrial control networks and the external internet is becoming increasingly close, which leads to frequent security accidents. This paper proposes a model for the industrial control network. It includes a malware containment strategy that integrates intrusion detection, quarantine, and monitoring. Based on this model, the role of key nodes in the spread of malware is studied, a comparison experiment is conducted to validate the impact of the containment strategy. In addition, the dynamic behavior of the model is analyzed, the… More >

Abstract Zero-shot learning enables the recognition of new class samples by migrating models learned from semantic features and existing sample features to things that have never been seen before. The problems of consistency of different types of features and domain shift problems are two of the critical issues in zero-shot learning. To address both of these issues, this paper proposes a new modeling structure. The traditional approach mapped semantic features and visual features into the same feature space; based on this, a dual discriminator approach is used in the proposed model. This dual discriminator approach can further enhance the consistency between… More >

Abstract The rapid expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) devices across various sectors is driven by steadily increasing demands for interconnected and smart technologies. Nevertheless, the surge in the number of IoT device has caught the attention of cyber hackers, as it provides them with expanded avenues to access valuable data. This has resulted in a myriad of security challenges, including information leakage, malware propagation, and financial loss, among others. Consequently, developing an intrusion detection system to identify both active and potential intrusion traffic in IoT networks is of paramount importance. In this paper, we propose ResNeSt-biGRU, a practical intrusion detection… More >

Abstract The quantization algorithm compresses the original network by reducing the numerical bit width of the model, which improves the computation speed. Because different layers have different redundancy and sensitivity to data bit width. Reducing the data bit width will result in a loss of accuracy. Therefore, it is difficult to determine the optimal bit width for different parts of the network with guaranteed accuracy. Mixed precision quantization can effectively reduce the amount of computation while keeping the model accuracy basically unchanged. In this paper, a hardware-aware mixed precision quantization strategy optimal assignment algorithm adapted to low bit width is proposed,… More >

Abstract The efficient transmission of images, which plays a large role in wireless communication systems, poses a significant challenge in the growth of multimedia technology. High-quality images require well-tuned communication standards. The Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) is adopted for broadband wireless communications, because of its low sensitivity to carrier frequency offsets and low Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR). Data transmission through open-channel networks requires much concentration on security, reliability, and integrity. The data need a space away from unauthorized access, modification, or deletion. These requirements are to be fulfilled by digital image watermarking and encryption. This paper is mainly… More >

Abstract As social networks become increasingly complex, contemporary fake news often includes textual descriptions of events accompanied by corresponding images or videos. Fake news in multiple modalities is more likely to create a misleading perception among users. While early research primarily focused on text-based features for fake news detection mechanisms, there has been relatively limited exploration of learning shared representations in multimodal (text and visual) contexts. To address these limitations, this paper introduces a multimodal model for detecting fake news, which relies on similarity reasoning and adversarial networks. The model employs Bidirectional Encoder Representation from Transformers (BERT) and Text Convolutional Neural… More >
