A watermarking algorithm of binary images using adaptable matrix is presented. An adaptable matrix is designed to evaluate the smoothness and the connectivity of binary images. The watermark is embedded according to the adaptable matrix in this algorithm. In the proposed watermarking algorithm, each image block implements a XOR operation with the binary adaptable matrix, which has the same size with the image block, and in order to embed the watermark data, a multiplication operation are also implemented with the weight matrix. The experimental results show that proposed scheme has a good performance.

A New Model for Network Security Situation Assessment of the Industrial Internet

To address the problem of network security situation assessment in the Industrial Internet,this paper adopts the evidential reasoning(ER)algorithm and belief rule base(BRB)method to establish an assessment model.First,this paper analyzes the influencing factors of the Industrial Internet and selects evaluation indicators that contain not only quantitative data but also qualitative knowledge.Second,the evaluation indicators are fused with expert knowledge and the ER algorithm.According to the fusion results,a network security situation assessment model of the Industrial Internet based on the ER and BRB method is established,and the projection covariance matrix adaptive evolution strategy(P-CMA-ES)is used to optimize the model parameters.This method can not only utilize semiquantitative information effectively but also use more uncertain information and prevent the problem of combinatorial explosion.Moreover,it solves the problem of the uncertainty of expert knowledge and overcomes the problem of low modeling accuracy caused by insufficient data.Finally,a network security situation assessment case of the Industrial Internet is analyzed to verify the effectiveness and superiority of the method.The research results showthat this method has strong applicability to the network security situation assessment of complex Industrial Internet systems.It can accurately reflect the actual network security situation of Industrial Internet systems and provide safe and reliable suggestions for network administrators to take timely countermeasures,thereby improving the risk monitoring and emergency response capabilities of the Industrial Internet.

Secured Cloud Data Migration Technique by Competent Probabilistic Public Key Encryption

Cloud computing, a recently emerged paradigm faces major challenges in achieving the privacy of migrated data, network security, etc. Too many cryptographic technologies are raised to solve these issues based on identity, attributes and prediction algorithms yet;these techniques are highly prone to attackers. This would raise a need of an effective encryption technique, which would ensure secure data migration. With this scenario, our proposed methodology Efficient Probabilistic Public Key Encryption(EPPKE) is optimized with Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategies(CMA-ES). It ensures data integrity through the Luhn algorithm with BLAKE 2b encapsulation. This enables an optimized security to the data which is migrated through cloud. The proposed methodology is implemented in Open Stack with Java Language. It achieves better results by providing security compared to other existing techniques like RSA, IBA, ABE, PBE, etc.

Frequency-invariant robust adaptive beamforming based on interference covariance matrix reconstruction

Consider the problems of frequency-invariant beampattern optimization and robustness in broadband beamforming.Firstly,a global optimization algorithm,which is based on phase compensation of the array manifolds,is used to construct the frequency-invariant beampattern.Compared with some methods presented recently,the proposed algorithm is not only available to get the global optimal solution,but also simple for physical realization.Meanwhile,a robust adaptive broadband beamforming algorithm is also derived by reconstructing the covariance matrix.The essence of the proposed algorithm is to estimate the space-frequency spectrum using Capon estimator firstly,then integrate over a region separated from the desired signal direction to reconstruct the interference-plus-noise covariance matrix,and finally caleulate the adaptive beamformer weights with the reconstructed matrix.The design of beamformer is formulated as a convex optimization problem to be solved.Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed algorithm is almost always close to the optimal value across a wide range of signal to noise ratios.

Aberration correction for multiphoton microscopy using covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy

Multiphoton microscopy is the enabling tool for biomedical research,but the aberrations of biological tissues have limited its imaging performance.Adaptive optics(AO)has been developed to partially overcome aberration to restore imaging performance.For indirect AO,algorithm is the key to its successful implementation.Here,based on the fact that indirect AO has an analogy to the black-box optimization problem,we successfully apply the covariance matrix adaptation evolution strategy(CMA-ES)used in the latter,to indirect AO in multiphoton microscopy(MPM).Compared with the traditional genetic algorithm(GA),our algorithm has a greater improvement in convergence speed and convergence accuracy,which provides the possibility of realizing real-time dynamic aberration correction for deep in vivo biological tissues.

Adaptive Tracking Control of an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

This paper presents the trajectory tracking control of an autonomous underwater vehicle(AUV). To cope with parametric uncertainties owing to the hydrodynamic effect, an adaptive control law is developed for the AUV to track the desired trajectory. This desired state-dependent regressor matrix-based controller provides consistent results under hydrodynamic parametric uncertainties.Stability of the developed controller is verified using the Lyapunov s direct method. Numerical simulations are carried out to study the efficacy of the proposed adaptive controller.

Efficient multi-objective CMA-ES algorithm assisted by knowledge-extraction-based variable-fidelity surrogate model

To accelerate the multi-objective optimization for expensive engineering cases, a Knowledge-Extraction-based Variable-Fidelity Surrogate-assisted Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolution Strategy(KE-VFS-CMA-ES) is presented. In the first part, the KE-VFS model is established. Firstly, the optimization is performed using the low-fidelity surrogate model to obtain the Low-Fidelity Non-Dominated Solutions(LF-NDS). Secondly, aiming to obtain the High-Fidelity(HF) sample points located in promising areas, the K-means clustering algorithm and the space-filling strategy are used to extract knowledge from the LF-NDS to the HF space. Finally,the KE-VFS model is established by means of the obtained HF and LF sample points. In the second part, a novel model management based on the Modified Hypervolume Improvement(MHVI) criterion and pre-screening strategy is proposed. In each generation of KE-VFS-CMA-ES, excessive candidate points are firstly generated and then calculated by the MHVI criterion to find out a few potential points, which will be evaluated by the HF model. Through the above two parts,the promising areas can be detected and the potential points can be screened out, which contributes to speeding up the optimization process twofold. Three classic benchmark functions and a time-consuming engineering case of the aerospace integrally stiffened shell are studied, and results illustrate the excellent efficiency, robustness and applicability of KE-VFS-CMA-ES compared with other four known multi-objective optimization algorithms.

Network security situation automatic prediction model based on accumulative CMA-ES optimization

To improve the accuracy of the network security situation, a security situation automatic prediction model based on accumulative data preprocess and support vector machine （SVM） optimized by covariance matrix adaptive evolutionary strategy （CMA-ES） is proposed. The proposed model adopts SVM which has strong nonlinear ability. Also, the hyper parameters for SVM are optimized through the CMA-ES which owns good performance in finding optimization automatically. Considering the irregularity of network security situation values, we accumulate the original sequence, so that the internal rules of discrete data can be revealed and it is easy to model. Simulation experiments show that the proposed model has faster convergence-speed and higher prediction accuracy than other extant prediction models.
