Abstract Data security has become a growing priority due to the increasing frequency of cyber-attacks, necessitating the development of more advanced encryption algorithms. This paper introduces Single Qubit Quantum Logistic-Sine XYZ-Rotation Maps (SQQLSR), a quantum-based chaos map designed to generate one-dimensional chaotic sequences with an ultra-wide parameter range. The proposed model leverages quantum superposition using Hadamard gates and quantum rotations along the X, Y, and Z axes to enhance randomness. Extensive numerical experiments validate the effectiveness of SQQLSR. The proposed method achieves a maximum Lyapunov exponent (LE) of ≈55.265, surpassing traditional chaotic maps in unpredictability. The bifurcation analysis… More >

Abstract In the field of automated fruit harvesting, precise and efficient fruit target recognition and localization play a pivotal role in enhancing the efficiency of harvesting robots. However, this domain faces two core challenges: firstly, the dynamic nature of the automatic picking process requires fruit target detection algorithms to adapt to multi-view characteristics, ensuring effective recognition of the same fruit from different perspectives. Secondly, fruits in natural environments often suffer from interference factors such as overlapping, occlusion, and illumination fluctuations, which increase the difficulty of image capture and recognition. To address these challenges, this study conducted… More >

Abstract This paper introduces a novel method for medical image retrieval and classification by integrating a multi-scale encoding mechanism with Vision Transformer (ViT) architectures and a dynamic multi-loss function. The multi-scale encoding significantly enhances the model’s ability to capture both fine-grained and global features, while the dynamic loss function adapts during training to optimize classification accuracy and retrieval performance. Our approach was evaluated on the ISIC-2018 and ChestX-ray14 datasets, yielding notable improvements. Specifically, on the ISIC-2018 dataset, our method achieves an F1-Score improvement of +4.84% compared to the standard ViT, with a precision increase of +5.46% More >

Abstract Over 1.3 million people die annually in traffic accidents, and this tragic fact highlights the urgent need to enhance the intelligence of traffic safety and control systems. In modern industrial and technological applications and collaborative edge intelligence, control systems are crucial for ensuring efficiency and safety. However, deficiencies in these systems can lead to significant operational risks. This paper uses edge intelligence to address the challenges of achieving target speeds and improving efficiency in vehicle control, particularly the limitations of traditional Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers in managing nonlinear and time-varying dynamics, such as varying road conditions… More >

Abstract Streptococcus suis (S. suis) is a major disease impacting pig farming globally. It can also be transferred to humans by eating raw pork. A comprehensive study was recently carried out to determine the indices through multiple geographic regions in China. Methods: The well-posed theorems were employed to conduct a thorough analysis of the model’s feasible features, including positivity, boundedness equilibria, reproduction number, and parameter sensitivity. Stochastic Euler, Runge Kutta, and Euler Maruyama are some of the numerical techniques used to replicate the behavior of the streptococcus suis infection in the pig population.

Abstract Concrete materials are employed extensively in a variety of large-scale structures due to their economic viability and superior mechanical properties. During the service life of concrete structures, they are inevitably subjected to damage from impact loading from natural disasters, such as earthquakes and storms. In recent years, the phase-field model has demonstrated exceptional capability in predicting the stochastic initiation, propagation, and bifurcation of cracks in materials. This study employs a phase-field model to focus on the rate dependency and failure response of concrete under impact deformation. A viscosity coefficient is introduced within the phase-field model… More >
