Abstract Iced transmission line galloping poses a significant threat to the safety and reliability of power systems, leading directly to line tripping, disconnections, and power outages. Existing early warning methods of iced transmission line galloping suffer from issues such as reliance on a single data source, neglect of irregular time series, and lack of attention-based closed-loop feedback, resulting in high rates of missed and false alarms. To address these challenges, we propose an Internet of Things (IoT) empowered early warning method of transmission line galloping that integrates time series data from optical fiber sensing and weather… More >

Abstract Stock price prediction is a typical complex time series prediction problem characterized by dynamics, nonlinearity, and complexity. This paper introduces a generative adversarial network model that incorporates an attention mechanism (GAN-LSTM-Attention) to improve the accuracy of stock price prediction. Firstly, the generator of this model combines the Long and Short-Term Memory Network (LSTM), the Attention Mechanism and, the Fully-Connected Layer, focusing on generating the predicted stock price. The discriminator combines the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and the Fully-Connected Layer to discriminate between real stock prices and generated stock prices. Secondly, to evaluate the practical application… More >

Abstract User location trajectory refers to the sequence of geographic location information that records the user’s movement or stay within a period of time and is usually used in mobile crowd sensing networks, in which the user participates in the sensing task, the process of sensing data collection faces the problem of privacy leakage. To address the privacy leakage issue of trajectory data during uploading, publishing, and sharing when users use location services on mobile smart group sensing terminal devices, this paper proposes a privacy protection method based on generative adversarial networks and attention mechanisms (BiLS-A-GAN).… More >

Abstract In the process of dense vehicles traveling fast, there will be mutual occlusion between vehicles, which will lead to the problem of deterioration of the tracking effect of different vehicles, so this paper proposes a research method of virtual simulation video vehicle target tracking based on you only look once (YOLO)v5s and deep simple online and realtime tracking (DeepSort). Given that the DeepSort algorithm is currently the most effective tracking method, this paper merges the YOLOv5 algorithm with the DeepSort algorithm. Then it adds the efficient channel attention networks (ECA-Net) focusing mechanism at the back… More >

Abstract As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to expand, incorporating a vast array of devices into a digital ecosystem also increases the risk of cyber threats, necessitating robust defense mechanisms. This paper presents an innovative hybrid deep learning architecture that excels at detecting IoT threats in real-world settings. Our proposed model combines Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (BLSTM), Gated Recurrent Units (GRU), and Attention mechanisms into a cohesive framework. This integrated structure aims to enhance the detection and classification of complex cyber threats while accommodating the operational constraints of diverse IoT systems.… More >

Abstract User identity linkage (UIL) refers to identifying user accounts belonging to the same identity across different social media platforms. Most of the current research is based on text analysis, which fails to fully explore the rich image resources generated by users, and the existing attempts touch on the multimodal domain, but still face the challenge of semantic differences between text and images. Given this, we investigate the UIL task across different social media platforms based on multimodal user-generated contents (UGCs). We innovatively introduce the efficient user identity linkage via aligned multi-modal features and temporal correlation… More >

Abstract The surge in connected devices and massive data aggregation has expanded the scale of the Internet of Things (IoT) networks. The proliferation of unknown attacks and related risks, such as zero-day attacks and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks triggered by botnets, have resulted in information leakage and property damage. Therefore, developing an efficient and realistic intrusion detection system (IDS) is critical for ensuring IoT network security. In recent years, traditional machine learning techniques have struggled to learn the complex associations between multidimensional features in network traffic, and the excellent performance of deep learning techniques,… More >

Abstract False data injection attack (FDIA) can affect the state estimation of the power grid by tampering with the measured value of the power grid data, and then destroying the stable operation of the smart grid. Existing work usually trains a detection model by fusing the data-driven features from diverse power data streams. Data-driven features, however, cannot effectively capture the differences between noisy data and attack samples. As a result, slight noise disturbances in the power grid may cause a large number of false detections for FDIA attacks. To address this problem, this paper designs a… More >

Abstract In Unsupervised Domain Adaptation (UDA) for person re-identification (re-ID), the primary challenge is reducing the distribution discrepancy between the source and target domains. This can be achieved by implicitly or explicitly constructing an appropriate intermediate domain to enhance recognition capability on the target domain. Implicit construction is difficult due to the absence of intermediate state supervision, making smooth knowledge transfer from the source to the target domain a challenge. To explicitly construct the most suitable intermediate domain for the model to gradually adapt to the feature distribution changes from the source to the target domain,… More >

Abstract It is crucial to ensure workers wear safety helmets when working at a workplace with a high risk of safety accidents, such as construction sites and mine tunnels. Although existing methods can achieve helmet detection in images, their accuracy and speed still need improvements since complex, cluttered, and large-scale scenes of real workplaces cause server occlusion, illumination change, scale variation, and perspective distortion. So, a new safety helmet-wearing detection method based on deep learning is proposed. Firstly, a new multi-scale contextual aggregation module is proposed to aggregate multi-scale feature information globally and highlight the details… More >
