Abstract The problem of low accuracy of POI (Points of Interest) recommendation in LBSN (Location-Based Social Networks) has not been effectively solved. In this paper, a POI recommendation algorithm based on nonconvex regularized tensor completion is proposed. The fourth-order tensor is constructed by using the current location category, the next location category, time and season, the regularizer is added to the objective function of tensor completion to prevent over-fitting and reduce the error of the model. The proximal algorithm is used to solve the objective function, and the adaptive momentum is introduced to improve the efficiency More >

Abstract In a wireless sensor network [1], the operation of a node depends on the battery power it carries. Because of the environmental reasons, the node cannot replace the battery. In order to improve the life cycle of the network, energy becomes one of the key problems in the design of the wireless sensor network (WSN) routing protocol [2]. This paper proposes a routing protocol ERGD based on the method of gradient descent that can minimizes the consumption of energy. Within the communication radius of the current node, the distance between the current node and the More >

Abstract Please WBANs are a sensor network for detection and collection of sensitive data to the human body, which is lightweight and mobile. WBANs transmit sensitive and significant messages through the public channel, which makes it easy for an attacker to eavesdrop and modify the messages, thus posing a severe threat to the security of the messages. Therefore, it is essential to put in place authentication and key agreement between different communication nodes in WBANs. In this paper, a lightweight and secure authenticated key agreement protocol in wireless body area networks is designed. It is More >

Abstract With the development of computer graphics, realistic computer graphics (CG) have become more and more common in our field of vision. This rendered image is invisible to the naked eye. How to effectively identify CG and natural images (NI) has been become a new issue in the field of digital forensics. In recent years, a series of deep learning network frameworks have shown great advantages in the field of images, which provides a good choice for us to solve this problem. This paper aims to track the latest developments and applications of deep learning in More >

Abstract In recent years, with the rapid growth of generative adversarial networks (GANs), a photo-realistic face can be easily generated from a random vector. Moreover, the faces generated by advanced GANs are very realistic. It is reasonable to acknowledge that even a well-trained viewer has difficulties to distinguish artificial from real faces. Therefore, detecting the face generated by GANs is a necessary work. This paper mainly introduces some methods to detect GAN-generated fake faces, and analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of these models based on the network structure and evaluation indexes, and the results obtained in More >

Abstract In large-scale image retrieval, deep features extracted by Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) can effectively express more image information than those extracted by traditional manual methods. However, the deep feature dimensions obtained by Deep Convolutional Neural Network (DCNN) are too high and redundant, which leads to low retrieval efficiency. We propose a novel image retrieval method, which combines deep features selection with improved DCNN and hash transform based on high-dimension features reduction to gain lowdimension deep features and realizes efficient image retrieval. Firstly, the improved network is based on the existing deep model to build a… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of information technology, the speed and efficiency of image retrieval are increasingly required in many fields, and a compelling image retrieval method is critical for the development of information. Feature extraction based on deep learning has become dominant in image retrieval due to their discrimination more complete, information more complementary and higher precision. However, the high-dimension deep features extracted by CNNs (convolutional neural networks) limits the retrieval efficiency and makes it difficult to satisfy the requirements of existing image retrieval. To solving this problem, the high-dimension feature reduction technology is… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of the Internet, many enterprises have launched their network platforms. When users browse, search, and click the products of these platforms, most platforms will keep records of these network behaviors, these records are often heterogeneous, and it is called log data. To effectively to analyze and manage these heterogeneous log data, so that enterprises can grasp the behavior characteristics of their platform users in time, to realize targeted recommendation of users, increase the sales volume of enterprises’ products, and accelerate the development of enterprises. Firstly, we follow the process of big… More >

Abstract In recent years, deep learning has become a hotspot and core method in the field of machine learning. In the field of machine vision, deep learning has excellent performance in feature extraction and feature representation, making it widely used in directions such as self-driving cars and face recognition. Although deep learning can solve large-scale complex problems very well, the latest research shows that the deep learning network model is very vulnerable to the adversarial attack. Add a weak perturbation to the original input will lead to the wrong output of the neural network, but for More >
