Abstract Background: Depression represents a significant global mental health burden, particularly among middle-aged and older Chinese with chronic diseases in high-altitude regions, where harsh environmental conditions and limited social support exacerbate mental health disparities. This paper aims to develop an interpretable machine learning prediction framework to identify the key factors of depression in this vulnerable population, thereby proposing targeted intervention measures. Methods: Utilizing data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study in 2020, this paper screened out and analyzed 2431 samples. Subsequently, Recursive Feature Elimination and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator were applied to screen… More >

Abstract Today, phishing is an online attack designed to obtain sensitive information such as credit card and bank account numbers, passwords, and usernames. We can find several anti-phishing solutions, such as heuristic detection, virtual similarity detection, black and white lists, and machine learning (ML). However, phishing attempts remain a problem, and establishing an effective anti-phishing strategy is a work in progress. Furthermore, while most anti-phishing solutions achieve the highest levels of accuracy on a given dataset, their methods suffer from an increased number of false positives. These methods are ineffective against zero-hour attacks. Phishing sites with… More >

Abstract A URL (Uniform Resource Locator) is used to locate a digital resource. With this URL, an attacker can perform a variety of attacks, which can lead to serious consequences for both individuals and organizations. Therefore, attackers create malicious URLs to gain access to an organization’s systems or sensitive information. It is crucial to secure individuals and organizations against these malicious URLs. A combination of machine learning and deep learning was used to predict malicious URLs. This research contributes significantly to the field of cybersecurity by proposing a model that seamlessly integrates the accuracy of machine More >

Abstract Aiming at the drift problem that the tracking control of the actual load relative to the target load during the electromagnetic excitation biaxial fatigue test of wind turbine blades is easy to drift, a biaxial fatigue testing machine for electromagnetic excitation is designed, and the following strategy of the actual load and the target load is studied. A Fast Transversal Recursive Least Squares algorithm based on fuzzy logic (Fuzzy FTRLS) is proposed to develop a fatigue loading following dynamic strategy, which adjusts the forgetting factor in the algorithm through fuzzy logic to overcome the contradiction More >

Abstract Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) connect numerous nodes to communicate data from the sender node to the target node. Due to the lack of an infrastructure network, mobile nodes communicate through wireless without an access point. MANET does not have a centralized controller and has a dynamic network topology, which increases link failure and energy consumption resulting in excessive path delay, loss of Quality of service (QoS), and reduced throughput during data communication. Congestion is a significant problem when the QoS of the link carrying the data is degraded. Routing is one of the vital challenges… More >

Abstract An effective communication application necessitates the cancellation of Impulsive Noise (IN) from Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), which is widely used for wireless applications due to its higher data rate and greater spectral efficiency. The OFDM system is typically corrupted by Impulsive Noise, which is an unwanted short-duration pulse with random amplitude and duration. Impulsive noise is created by humans and has non-Gaussian characteristics, causing problems in communication systems such as high capacity loss and poor error rate performance. Several techniques have been introduced in the literature to solve this type of problem, but they… More >

Abstract The data in the cloud is protected by various mechanisms to ensure security aspects and user’s privacy. But, deceptive attacks like phishing might obtain the user’s data and use it for malicious purposes. In Spite of much technological advancement, phishing acts as the first step in a series of attacks. With technological advancements, availability and access to the phishing kits has improved drastically, thus making it an ideal tool for the hackers to execute the attacks. The phishing cases indicate use of foreign characters to disguise the original Uniform Resource Locator (URL), typosquatting the popular… More >

Abstract A malicious URL is a link that is created to spread spams, phishing, malware, ransomware, spyware, etc. A user may download malware that can adversely affect the computer by clicking on an infected URL, or might be convinced to provide confidential information to a fraudulent website causing serious losses. These threats must be identified and handled in a decent time and in an effective way. Detection is traditionally done through the blacklist usage method, which relies on keyword matching with previously known malicious domain names stored in a repository. This method is fast and easy… More >

Abstract Detecting malicious Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) is crucially important to prevent attackers from committing cybercrimes. Recent researches have investigated the role of machine learning (ML) models to detect malicious URLs. By using ML algorithms, first, the features of URLs are extracted, and then different ML models are trained. The limitation of this approach is that it requires manual feature engineering and it does not consider the sequential patterns in the URL. Therefore, deep learning (DL) models are used to solve these issues since they are able to perform featureless detection. Furthermore, DL models give better… More >
