    Tensile Failure Characterization of Glass/Epoxy Composites using Acoustic Emission RMS Data

    K. KRISHNAMOORTHYa,*, N. PRABHUb

    Journal of Polymer Materials, Vol.40, No.3-4, pp. 215-226, 2023, DOI:10.32381/JPM.2023.40.3-4.7

    Abstract The acoustic emission monitoring with artificial neural networks predicts the ultimate strength of glass/epoxy composite laminates using Acoustic Emission Data. The ultimate loads of all the specimens were used to characterise the emission of hits during failure modes. The six layered glass fiber laminates were prepared (in woven mat form) with epoxy as the binding medium by hand lay-up technique. At room temperature, with a pressure of 30 kg/cm2, the laminates were cured. The laminates of standard dimensions as per ASTM D3039 for the tensile test were cut from the lamina. The Acoustic Emission (AE) test was conducted on these… More >

    VKFQ: A Verifiable Keyword Frequency Query Framework with Local Differential Privacy in Blockchain

    Youlin Ji, Bo Yin*, Ke Gu

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 4205-4223, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.049086

    Abstract With its untameable and traceable properties, blockchain technology has been widely used in the field of data sharing. How to preserve individual privacy while enabling efficient data queries is one of the primary issues with secure data sharing. In this paper, we study verifiable keyword frequency (KF) queries with local differential privacy in blockchain. Both the numerical and the keyword attributes are present in data objects; the latter are sensitive and require privacy protection. However, prior studies in blockchain have the problem of trilemma in privacy protection and are unable to handle KF queries. We propose an efficient framework that… More >

    Applying an Improved Dung Beetle Optimizer Algorithm to Network Traffic Identification

    Qinyue Wu, Hui Xu*, Mengran Liu

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 4091-4107, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.048461

    Abstract Network traffic identification is critical for maintaining network security and further meeting various demands of network applications. However, network traffic data typically possesses high dimensionality and complexity, leading to practical problems in traffic identification data analytics. Since the original Dung Beetle Optimizer (DBO) algorithm, Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) algorithm, Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA), and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm have the shortcomings of slow convergence and easily fall into the local optimal solution, an Improved Dung Beetle Optimizer (IDBO) algorithm is proposed for network traffic identification. Firstly, the Sobol sequence is utilized to initialize the dung beetle population, laying the… More >

    Teng Wang, Yao Zhang, Jiangguo Liang, Shuai Wang, Shuanggen Liu*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 3891-3907, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.048115

    Abstract With the widespread data collection and processing, privacy-preserving machine learning has become increasingly important in addressing privacy risks related to individuals. Support vector machine (SVM) is one of the most elementary learning models of machine learning. Privacy issues surrounding SVM classifier training have attracted increasing attention. In this paper, we investigate Differential Privacy-compliant Federated Machine Learning with Dimensionality Reduction, called FedDPDR-DPML, which greatly improves data utility while providing strong privacy guarantees. Considering in distributed learning scenarios, multiple participants usually hold unbalanced or small amounts of data. Therefore, FedDPDR-DPML enables multiple participants to collaboratively learn a global model based on weighted… More >

    A Security Trade-Off Scheme of Anomaly Detection System in IoT to Defend against Data-Tampering Attacks

    Bing Liu1, Zhe Zhang1, Shengrong Hu2, Song Sun3,*, Dapeng Liu4, Zhenyu Qiu5

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 4049-4069, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.048099

    Abstract Internet of Things (IoT) is vulnerable to data-tampering (DT) attacks. Due to resource limitations, many anomaly detection systems (ADSs) for IoT have high false positive rates when detecting DT attacks. This leads to the misreporting of normal data, which will impact the normal operation of IoT. To mitigate the impact caused by the high false positive rate of ADS, this paper proposes an ADS management scheme for clustered IoT. First, we model the data transmission and anomaly detection in clustered IoT. Then, the operation strategy of the clustered IoT is formulated as the running probabilities of all ADSs deployed on… More >

    TSCND: Temporal Subsequence-Based Convolutional Network with Difference for Time Series Forecasting

    Haoran Huang, Weiting Chen*, Zheming Fan

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 3665-3681, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.048008

    Abstract Time series forecasting plays an important role in various fields, such as energy, finance, transport, and weather. Temporal convolutional networks (TCNs) based on dilated causal convolution have been widely used in time series forecasting. However, two problems weaken the performance of TCNs. One is that in dilated casual convolution, causal convolution leads to the receptive fields of outputs being concentrated in the earlier part of the input sequence, whereas the recent input information will be severely lost. The other is that the distribution shift problem in time series has not been adequately solved. To address the first problem, we propose… More >

    Data Secure Storage Mechanism for IIoT Based on Blockchain

    Jin Wang1,2, Guoshu Huang1, R. Simon Sherratt3, Ding Huang4, Jia Ni4,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 4029-4048, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.047468

    Abstract With the development of Industry 4.0 and big data technology, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is hampered by inherent issues such as privacy, security, and fault tolerance, which pose certain challenges to the rapid development of IIoT. Blockchain technology has immutability, decentralization, and autonomy, which can greatly improve the inherent defects of the IIoT. In the traditional blockchain, data is stored in a Merkle tree. As data continues to grow, the scale of proofs used to validate it grows, threatening the efficiency, security, and reliability of blockchain-based IIoT. Accordingly, this paper first analyzes the inefficiency of the traditional blockchain… More >

    Abstract Multimodal medical image fusion has attained immense popularity in recent years due to its robust technology for clinical diagnosis. It fuses multiple images into a single image to improve the quality of images by retaining significant information and aiding diagnostic practitioners in diagnosing and treating many diseases. However, recent image fusion techniques have encountered several challenges, including fusion artifacts, algorithm complexity, and high computing costs. To solve these problems, this study presents a novel medical image fusion strategy by combining the benefits of pixel significance with edge-preserving processing to achieve the best fusion performance. First, the method employs a cross-bilateral… More >

    Machine-Learning Based Packet Switching Method for Providing Stable High-Quality Video Streaming in Multi-Stream Transmission

    Yumin Jo1, Jongho Paik2,*

    CMC-Computers, Materials & Continua, Vol.78, No.3, pp. 4153-4176, 2024, DOI:10.32604/cmc.2024.047046

    Abstract Broadcasting gateway equipment generally uses a method of simply switching to a spare input stream when a failure occurs in a main input stream. However, when the transmission environment is unstable, problems such as reduction in the lifespan of equipment due to frequent switching and interruption, delay, and stoppage of services may occur. Therefore, applying a machine learning (ML) method, which is possible to automatically judge and classify network-related service anomaly, and switch multi-input signals without dropping or changing signals by predicting or quickly determining the time of error occurrence for smooth stream switching when there are problems such as… More >
