Abstract A deep learning access control model based on user preferences is proposed to address the issue of personal privacy leakage in social networks. Firstly, social users and social data entities are extracted from the social network and used to construct homogeneous and heterogeneous graphs. Secondly, a graph neural network model is designed based on user daily social behavior and daily social data to simulate the dissemination and changes of user social preferences and user personal preferences in the social network. Then, high-order neighbor nodes, hidden neighbor nodes, displayed neighbor nodes, and social data nodes are used to update user nodes… More >

Abstract Blasting in surface mines aims to fragment rock masses to a proper size. However, flyrock is an undesirable effect of blasting that can result in human injuries. In this study, support vector regression (SVR) is combined with four algorithms: gravitational search algorithm (GSA), biogeography-based optimization (BBO), ant colony optimization (ACO), and whale optimization algorithm (WOA) for predicting flyrock in two surface mines in Iran. Additionally, three other methods, including artificial neural network (ANN), kernel extreme learning machine (KELM), and general regression neural network (GRNN), are employed, and their performances are compared to those of four hybrid SVR models. After modeling,… More >

Abstract Automatic segmentation of medical images provides a reliable scientific basis for disease diagnosis and analysis. Notably, most existing methods that combine the strengths of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and Transformers have made significant progress. However, there are some limitations in the current integration of CNN and Transformer technology in two key aspects. Firstly, most methods either overlook or fail to fully incorporate the complementary nature between local and global features. Secondly, the significance of integrating the multi-scale encoder features from the dual-branch network to enhance the decoding features is often disregarded in methods that combine CNN and Transformer. To address… More >

Abstract This paper presents a new method of using a convolutional neural network (CNN) in machine learning to identify brand consistency by product appearance variation. In Experiment 1, we collected fifty mouse devices from the past thirty-five years from a renowned company to build a dataset consisting of product pictures with pre-defined design features of their appearance and functions. Results show that it is a challenge to distinguish periods for the subtle evolution of the mouse devices with such traditional methods as time series analysis and principal component analysis (PCA). In Experiment 2, we applied deep learning to predict the extent… More >

Abstract With the advancement of wireless network technology, vast amounts of traffic have been generated, and malicious traffic attacks that threaten the network environment are becoming increasingly sophisticated. While signature-based detection methods, static analysis, and dynamic analysis techniques have been previously explored for malicious traffic detection, they have limitations in identifying diversified malware traffic patterns. Recent research has been focused on the application of machine learning to detect these patterns. However, applying machine learning to lightweight devices like IoT devices is challenging because of the high computational demands and complexity involved in the learning process. In this study, we examined methods… More >

Abstract Stiffened structures have great potential for improving mechanical performance, and the study of their stability is of great interest. In this paper, the optimization of the critical buckling load factor for curved grid stiffeners is solved by using the level set based density method, where the shape and cross section (including thickness and width) of the stiffeners can be optimized simultaneously. The grid stiffeners are a combination of many single stiffeners which are projected by the corresponding level set functions. The thickness and width of each stiffener are designed to be independent variables in the projection applied to each level… More >

Abstract An autonomous microgrid that runs on renewable energy sources is presented in this article. It has a superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) device, wind energy-producing devices, and an energy storage battery. However, because such microgrids are nonlinear and the energy they create varies with time, controlling and managing the energy inside them is a difficult issue. Fractional-order proportional integral (FOPI) controller is recommended for the current research to enhance a standalone microgrid’s energy management and performance. The suggested dedicated control for the SMES comprises two loops: the outer loop, which uses the FOPI to regulate the DC-link voltage, and the… More >

Abstract Fusing hand-based features in multi-modal biometric recognition enhances anti-spoofing capabilities. Additionally, it leverages inter-modal correlation to enhance recognition performance. Concurrently, the robustness and recognition performance of the system can be enhanced through judiciously leveraging the correlation among multimodal features. Nevertheless, two issues persist in multi-modal feature fusion recognition: Firstly, the enhancement of recognition performance in fusion recognition has not comprehensively considered the inter-modality correlations among distinct modalities. Secondly, during modal fusion, improper weight selection diminishes the salience of crucial modal features, thereby diminishing the overall recognition performance. To address these two issues, we introduce an enhanced DenseNet multimodal recognition network… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The global population has been and will continue to be severely impacted by the COVID-19 epidemic. The primary objective of this research is to demonstrate the future impact of COVID-19 on those who suffer from other fatal conditions such as cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. Here, using ordinary differential equations (ODEs), two mathematical models are developed to explain the association between COVID-19 and cancer and between COVID-19 and diabetes and heart disease. After that, we highlight the stability assessments that can be applied to these models. Sensitivity analysis is used to examine how changes in certain factors impact different aspects… More >

Abstract For media with inclusions (e.g., precipitates, voids, reinforcements, and others), the difference in lattice parameter and the elastic modulus between the matrix and inclusions cause stress concentration at the interfaces. These stress fields depend on the inclusions’ size, shape, and distribution and will respond instantly to the evolving microstructure. This study develops a phase-field model concerning modulus heterogeneity. The effect of modulus heterogeneity on the growth process and equilibrium state of the α plate in Ti-6Al-4V during precipitation is evaluated. The α precipitate exhibits strong anisotropy in shape upon cooling due to the interplay of the elastic strain and interfacial… More >
