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 >

Abstract Numerous studies have characterized the critical role of circular RNAs (circRNAs) as regulatory factors in the progression of multiple cancers. However, the biological functions of circRNAs and their underlying molecular mechanisms in the progression of uveal melanoma (UM) remain enigmatic. In this study, we identified a novel circRNA, circ_0053943, through re-analysis of UM microarray data and quantitative RT-PCR. Circ_0053943 was found to be upregulated in UM and to promote the proliferation and metastatic ability of UM cells in both in vitro and in vivo settings. Mechanistically, circ_0053943 was observed to bind to the KH1 and KH2 domains of insulin-like growth… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Automatic detection of student engagement levels from videos, which is a spatio-temporal classification problem is crucial for enhancing the quality of online education. This paper addresses this challenge by proposing four novel hybrid end-to-end deep learning models designed for the automatic detection of student engagement levels in e-learning videos. The evaluation of these models utilizes the DAiSEE dataset, a public repository capturing student affective states in e-learning scenarios. The initial model integrates EfficientNetV2-L with Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) and attains an accuracy of 61.45%. Subsequently, the second model combines EfficientNetV2-L with bidirectional GRU (Bi-GRU), yielding an accuracy of 61.56%. The… More >

Abstract Color, as a significant element of village landscapes, serves various functions such as enhancing aesthetic appeal and attractiveness, conveying emotions and cultural values. To explore the three-dimensional spatial characteristics of color landscapes in beautiful villages, this study conducted a comparative experiment involving eight provincial-level beautiful villages and eight ordinary villages in Jinzhai County. Landscape pattern indices were used to analyze the color landscape patterns on the facades of these villages, complemented by a quantitative analysis of color attributes using the Munsell color system. The results indicate that (1) Natural landscape colors in beautiful villages are primarily concentrated in the yellow-red… More >

Abstract One of the significant issues the insurance industry faces is its ability to predict future claims related to individual policyholders. As risk varies from one policyholder to another, the industry has faced the challenge of using various risk factors to accurately predict the likelihood of claims by policyholders using historical data. Traditional machine-learning models that use neural networks are recognized as exceptional algorithms with predictive capabilities. This study aims to develop a deep learning model using sequential deep regression techniques for insurance claim prediction using historical data obtained from Kaggle with 1339 cases and eight variables. This study adopted a… More >
