    Enhanced Wolf Pack Algorithm (EWPA) and Dense-kUNet Segmentation for Arterial Calcifications in Mammograms

    Afnan M. Alhassan*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.2, pp. 2207-2223, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.046427

    Abstract Breast Arterial Calcification (BAC) is a mammographic decision dissimilar to cancer and commonly observed in elderly women. Thus identifying BAC could provide an expense, and be inaccurate. Recently Deep Learning (DL) methods have been introduced for automatic BAC detection and quantification with increased accuracy. Previously, classification with deep learning had reached higher efficiency, but designing the structure of DL proved to be an extremely challenging task due to overfitting models. It also is not able to capture the patterns and irregularities presented in the images. To solve the overfitting problem, an optimal feature set has been formed by Enhanced Wolf… More >

    Detecting APT-Exploited Processes through Semantic Fusion and Interaction Prediction

    Bin Luo1,2,3, Liangguo Chen1,2,3, Shuhua Ruan1,2,3,*, Yonggang Luo2,3,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.2, pp. 1731-1754, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.045739

    Abstract Considering the stealthiness and persistence of Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), system audit logs are leveraged in recent studies to construct system entity interaction provenance graphs to unveil threats in a host. Rule-based provenance graph APT detection approaches require elaborate rules and cannot detect unknown attacks, and existing learning-based approaches are limited by the lack of available APT attack samples or generally only perform graph-level anomaly detection, which requires lots of manual efforts to locate attack entities. This paper proposes an APT-exploited process detection approach called ThreatSniffer, which constructs the benign provenance graph from attack-free audit logs, fits normal system entity… More >

    Muhammad Rizwan1,2, Muhammad Faheem Mushtaq1, Maryam Rafiq2, Arif Mehmood3, Isabel de la Torre Diez4, Monica Gracia Villar5,6,7, Helena Garay5,8,9, Imran Ashraf10,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.2, pp. 2047-2066, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.037347

    Abstract Predicting depression intensity from microblogs and social media posts has numerous benefits and applications, including predicting early psychological disorders and stress in individuals or the general public. A major challenge in predicting depression using social media posts is that the existing studies do not focus on predicting the intensity of depression in social media texts but rather only perform the binary classification of depression and moreover noisy data makes it difficult to predict the true depression in the social media text. This study intends to begin by collecting relevant Tweets and generating a corpus of 210000 public tweets using Twitter… More >

    Perla Patricia Ochoa-García1, Jaime Sánchez-Salas2, Ricardo Trejo-Calzada1, Jesús Josafath Quezada-Rivera2, Fabián García-González1,*

    Phyton-International Journal of Experimental Botany, Vol.93, No.2, pp. 371-386, 2024, DOI:10.32604/phyton.2024.048338

    Abstract The genus Argemone L. (Papaveraceae) is found widely distributed in Mexico’s Chihuahuan Desert (CD). Some species of this genus are of phytochemical or ethnobotanical interest. They are inedible plants considered as scrubs. To date they have not been broadly studied; thus, their ecology is, to our knowledge, unknown. The present work was centered around carrying out a morphometric analysis and the determination of minerals in the soil and seeds of the wild populations of Argemone at sites belonging to two ecoregions of the CD in Mexico. In April 2021 and April 2022, seeds of Argemone spp., and soil samples were… More >

    Leveraging Augmented Reality, Semantic-Segmentation, and VANETs for Enhanced Driver’s Safety Assistance

    Sitara Afzal1, Imran Ullah Khan1, Irfan Mehmood2, Jong Weon Lee1,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.1, pp. 1443-1460, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.046707

    Abstract Overtaking is a crucial maneuver in road transportation that requires a clear view of the road ahead. However, limited visibility of ahead vehicles can often make it challenging for drivers to assess the safety of overtaking maneuvers, leading to accidents and fatalities. In this paper, we consider atrous convolution, a powerful tool for explicitly adjusting the field-of-view of a filter as well as controlling the resolution of feature responses generated by Deep Convolutional Neural Networks in the context of semantic image segmentation. This article explores the potential of seeing-through vehicles as a solution to enhance overtaking safety. See-through vehicles leverage… More >

    A Joint Entity Relation Extraction Model Based on Relation Semantic Template Automatically Constructed

    Wei Liu, Meijuan Yin*, Jialong Zhang, Lunchong Cui

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.1, pp. 975-997, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.046475

    Abstract The joint entity relation extraction model which integrates the semantic information of relation is favored by relevant researchers because of its effectiveness in solving the overlapping of entities, and the method of defining the semantic template of relation manually is particularly prominent in the extraction effect because it can obtain the deep semantic information of relation. However, this method has some problems, such as relying on expert experience and poor portability. Inspired by the rule-based entity relation extraction method, this paper proposes a joint entity relation extraction model based on a relation semantic template automatically constructed, which is abbreviated as… More >

    A Video Captioning Method by Semantic Topic-Guided Generation

    Ou Ye, Xinli Wei, Zhenhua Yu*, Yan Fu, Ying Yang

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.1, pp. 1071-1093, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2023.046418

    Abstract In the video captioning methods based on an encoder-decoder, limited visual features are extracted by an encoder, and a natural sentence of the video content is generated using a decoder. However, this kind of method is dependent on a single video input source and few visual labels, and there is a problem with semantic alignment between video contents and generated natural sentences, which are not suitable for accurately comprehending and describing the video contents. To address this issue, this paper proposes a video captioning method by semantic topic-guided generation. First, a 3D convolutional neural network is utilized to extract the… More >

    Abstract Computational linguistics is the scientific and engineering discipline related to comprehending written and spoken language from a computational perspective and building artefacts that effectively process and produce language, either in bulk or in a dialogue setting. This paper develops a Chaotic Bird Swarm Optimization with deep ensemble learning based Arabic poem classification and dictarization (CBSOEDL-APCD) technique. The presented CBSOEDL-APCD technique involves the classification and dictarization of Arabic text into Arabic poetries and prose. Primarily, the CBSOEDL-APCD technique carries out data pre-processing to convert it into a useful format. Besides, the ensemble deep learning (EDL) model comprising deep belief network (DBN),… More >
