This paper presents a comprehensive exploration into the integration of Internet of Things(IoT),big data analysis,cloud computing,and Artificial Intelligence(AI),which has led to an unprecedented era of connectivity.We delve into the emerging trend of machine learning on embedded devices,enabling tasks in resource-limited environ-ments.However,the widespread adoption of machine learning raises significant privacy concerns,necessitating the development of privacy-preserving techniques.One such technique,secure multi-party computation(MPC),allows collaborative computations without exposing private inputs.Despite its potential,complex protocols and communication interactions hinder performance,especially on resource-constrained devices.Efforts to enhance efficiency have been made,but scalability remains a challenge.Given the success of GPUs in deep learning,lever-aging embedded GPUs,such as those offered by NVIDIA,emerges as a promising solution.Therefore,we propose an Embedded GPU-based Secure Two-party Computation(EG-STC)framework for Artificial Intelligence(AI)systems.To the best of our knowledge,this work represents the first endeavor to fully implement machine learning model training based on secure two-party computing on the Embedded GPU platform.Our experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of EG-STC.On an embedded GPU with a power draw of 5 W,our implementation achieved a secure two-party matrix multiplication throughput of 5881.5 kilo-operations per millisecond(kops/ms),with an energy efficiency ratio of 1176.3 kops/ms/W.Furthermore,leveraging our EG-STC framework,we achieved an overall time acceleration ratio of 5–6 times compared to solutions running on server-grade CPUs.Our solution also exhibited a reduced runtime,requiring only 60%to 70%of the runtime of previously best-known methods on the same platform.In summary,our research contributes to the advancement of secure and efficient machine learning implementations on resource-constrained embedded devices,paving the way for broader adoption of AI technologies in various applications.

Logformer: Cascaded Transformer for System Log Anomaly Detection

Modern large-scale enterprise systems produce large volumes of logs that record detailed system runtime status and key events at key points.These logs are valuable for analyzing performance issues and understanding the status of the system.Anomaly detection plays an important role in service management and system maintenance,and guarantees the reliability and security of online systems.Logs are universal semi-structured data,which causes difficulties for traditional manual detection and pattern-matching algorithms.While some deep learning algorithms utilize neural networks to detect anomalies,these approaches have an over-reliance on manually designed features,resulting in the effectiveness of anomaly detection depending on the quality of the features.At the same time,the aforementioned methods ignore the underlying contextual information present in adjacent log entries.We propose a novel model called Logformer with two cascaded transformer-based heads to capture latent contextual information from adjacent log entries,and leverage pre-trained embeddings based on logs to improve the representation of the embedding space.The proposed model achieves comparable results on HDFS and BGL datasets in terms of metric accuracy,recall and F1-score.Moreover,the consistent rise in F1-score proves that the representation of the embedding spacewith pre-trained embeddings is closer to the semantic information of the log.

Towards Sustainable Agricultural Systems:A Lightweight Deep Learning Model for Plant Disease Detection

A country’s economy heavily depends on agricultural development.However,due to several plant diseases,crop growth rate and quality are highly suffered.Accurate identification of these diseases via a manual procedure is very challenging and time-consuming because of the deficiency of domain experts and low-contrast information.Therefore,the agricultural management system is searching for an automatic early disease detection technique.To this end,an efficient and lightweight Deep Learning(DL)-based framework(E-GreenNet)is proposed to overcome these problems and precisely classify the various diseases.In the end-to-end architecture,a MobileNetV3Smallmodel is utilized as a backbone that generates refined,discriminative,and prominent features.Moreover,the proposed model is trained over the PlantVillage(PV),Data Repository of Leaf Images(DRLI),and a new Plant Composite(PC)dataset individually,and later on test samples,its actual performance is evaluated.After extensive experimental analysis,the proposed model obtained 1.00%,0.96%and 0.99%accuracies on all three included datasets.Moreover,the proposed method achieves better inference speed when compared with other State-Of-The-Art(SOTA)approaches.In addition,a comparative analysis is conducted where the proposed strategy shows tremendous discriminative scores as compared to the various pretrained models and other Machine Learning(ML)and DL methods.

Night Vision Object Tracking System Using Correlation Aware LSTM-Based Modified Yolo Algorithm

Improved picture quality is critical to the effectiveness of object recog-nition and tracking.The consistency of those photos is impacted by night-video systems because the contrast between high-profile items and different atmospheric conditions,such as mist,fog,dust etc.The pictures then shift in intensity,colour,polarity and consistency.A general challenge for computer vision analyses lies in the horrid appearance of night images in arbitrary illumination and ambient envir-onments.In recent years,target recognition techniques focused on deep learning and machine learning have become standard algorithms for object detection with the exponential growth of computer performance capabilities.However,the iden-tification of objects in the night world also poses further problems because of the distorted backdrop and dim light.The Correlation aware LSTM based YOLO(You Look Only Once)classifier method for exact object recognition and deter-mining its properties under night vision was a major inspiration for this work.In order to create virtual target sets similar to daily environments,we employ night images as inputs;and to obtain high enhanced image using histogram based enhancement and iterative wienerfilter for removing the noise in the image.The process of the feature extraction and feature selection was done for electing the potential features using the Adaptive internal linear embedding(AILE)and uplift linear discriminant analysis(ULDA).The region of interest mask can be segmen-ted using the Recurrent-Phase Level set Segmentation.Finally,we use deep con-volution feature fusion and region of interest pooling to integrate the presently extremely sophisticated quicker Long short term memory based(LSTM)with YOLO method for object tracking system.A range of experimentalfindings demonstrate that our technique achieves high average accuracy with a precision of 99.7%for object detection of SSAN datasets that is considerably more than that of the other standard object detection mechanism.Our approach may therefore satisfy the true demands of night scene target detection applications.We very much believe that our method will help future research.

基于Transformer结构增强的神经网络架构搜索性能预测器

神经网络架构搜索(Neural Architecture Search,NAS)作为一种通过搜索算法设计神经网络架构的方法,在计算机视觉和自然语言处理等领域得到广泛应用,相较于人工设计网络,NAS方法可以减少设计成本并提高模型性能.但是NAS的性能评估需要对候选架构进行大量训练,由此带来的计算量占整个NAS的80%以上.为降低计算开销和时间成本,近年来已提出许多基于Transformer的NAS预测器,由于Transformer出色的结构编码能力可以更好地表示拓扑信息,因而得到广泛应用.但是,现有基于Transformer的NAS预测器依然存在三个问题:其一是在预处理阶段,传统的One-hot编码方式描述节点特征的能力较弱,只能区分不同操作节点类型,而难以表达操作的细节特征,如卷积核尺寸等.其二是在编码阶段,Transformer的自注意力机制导致模型结构信息缺失;其三是在评估阶段,现有的Transformer预测器仅使用多层感知机(Multilayer Perceptron,MLP)对前向传播图进行精度预测,忽略了反向传播梯度流对预测精度的影响,因此难以真正拟合NAS评估中的正、反向交替信息流图,导致预测器精度与实际运行精度误差波动极大(10%~90%).为解决上述问题,本文提出了一种基于Transformer结构增强的NAS性能预测方法.首先,在预处理阶段,本文提出了一种超维嵌入方法增加输入数据维度以强化节点操作的参数描述能力,其次,在编码阶段将Transformer编码后的信息与图结构信息共同输人一个图卷积网络(Graph Convolutional Network,GCN),弥补由自注意力机制引起的结构缺失.最后,在性能评估阶段,本文构建了同时包含前向传播和反向传播的全训练图,并将数据集信息、图结构编码与梯度编码共同输入到GCN网络预测器中,使预测结果更贴近模型真实性能.实验结果表明,本方法与目前最先进方法相比,肯德尔相关系数提高了7.45%,训练时间减少了1.55倍。

Oxygen functionalization-assisted anionic exchange toward unique construction of flower-like transition metal chalcogenide embedded carbon fabric for ultra-long life flexible energy storage and conversion

The metal-organic framework(MOF)derived Ni–Co–C–N composite alloys(NiCCZ)were“embedded”inside the carbon cloth(CC)strands as opposed to the popular idea of growing them upward to realize ultrastable energy storage and conversion application.The NiCCZ was then oxygen functionalized,facilitating the next step of stoichiometric sulfur anion diffusion during hydrothermal sulfurization,generating a flower-like metal hydroxysulfide structure(NiCCZOS)with strong partial implantation inside CC.Thus obtained NiCCZOS shows an excellent capacity when tested as a supercapacitor electrode in a three-electrode configuration.Moreover,when paired with the biomass-derived nitrogen-rich activated carbon,the asymmetric supercapacitor device shows almost 100%capacity retention even after 45,000 charge–discharge cycles with remarkable energy density(59.4 Wh kg^(-1)/263.8μWh cm^(–2))owing to a uniquely designed cathode.Furthermore,the same electrode performed as an excellent bifunctional water-splitting electrocatalyst with an overpotential of 271 mV for oxygen evolution reaction(OER)and 168.4 mV for hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)at 10 mA cm−2 current density along with 30 h of unhinged chronopotentiometric stability performance for both HER and OER.Hence,a unique metal chalcogenide composite electrode/substrate configuration has been proposed as a highly stable electrode material for flexible energy storage and conversion applications.

A Linked List Encryption Scheme for Image Steganography without Embedding

Information steganography has received more and more attention from scholars nowadays,especially in the area of image steganography,which uses image content to transmit information and makes the existence of secret information undetectable.To enhance concealment and security,the Steganography without Embedding(SWE)method has proven effective in avoiding image distortion resulting from cover modification.In this paper,a novel encrypted communication scheme for image SWE is proposed.It reconstructs the image into a multi-linked list structure consisting of numerous nodes,where each pixel is transformed into a single node with data and pointer domains.By employing a special addressing algorithm,the optimal linked list corresponding to the secret information can be identified.The receiver can restore the secretmessage fromthe received image using only the list header position information.The scheme is based on the concept of coverless steganography,eliminating the need for any modifications to the cover image.It boasts high concealment and security,along with a complete message restoration rate,making it resistant to steganalysis.Furthermore,this paper proposes linked-list construction schemeswithin theproposedframework,which caneffectively resist a variety of attacks,includingnoise attacks and image compression,demonstrating a certain degree of robustness.To validate the proposed framework,practical tests and comparisons are conducted using multiple datasets.The results affirm the framework’s commendable performance in terms of message reduction rate,hidden writing capacity,and robustness against diverse attacks.

Enhancing visual security: An image encryption scheme based on parallel compressive sensing and edge detection embedding

A novel image encryption scheme based on parallel compressive sensing and edge detection embedding technology is proposed to improve visual security. Firstly, the plain image is sparsely represented using the discrete wavelet transform.Then, the coefficient matrix is scrambled and compressed to obtain a size-reduced image using the Fisher–Yates shuffle and parallel compressive sensing. Subsequently, to increase the security of the proposed algorithm, the compressed image is re-encrypted through permutation and diffusion to obtain a noise-like secret image. Finally, an adaptive embedding method based on edge detection for different carrier images is proposed to generate a visually meaningful cipher image. To improve the plaintext sensitivity of the algorithm, the counter mode is combined with the hash function to generate keys for chaotic systems. Additionally, an effective permutation method is designed to scramble the pixels of the compressed image in the re-encryption stage. The simulation results and analyses demonstrate that the proposed algorithm performs well in terms of visual security and decryption quality.

Randomization Strategies in Image Steganography Techniques:A Review

Image steganography is one of the prominent technologies in data hiding standards.Steganographic system performance mostly depends on the embedding strategy.Its goal is to embed strictly confidential information into images without causing perceptible changes in the original image.The randomization strategies in data embedding techniques may utilize random domains,pixels,or region-of-interest for concealing secrets into a cover image,preventing information from being discovered by an attacker.The implementation of an appropriate embedding technique can achieve a fair balance between embedding capability and stego image imperceptibility,but it is challenging.A systematic approach is used with a standard methodology to carry out this study.This review concentrates on the critical examination of several embedding strategies,incorporating experimental results with state-of-the-art methods emphasizing the robustness,security,payload capacity,and visual quality metrics of the stego images.The fundamental ideas of steganography are presented in this work,along with a unique viewpoint that sets it apart from previous works by highlighting research gaps,important problems,and difficulties.Additionally,it offers a discussion of suggested directions for future study to advance and investigate uncharted territory in image steganography.

CO_(2)flooding in shale oil reservoir with radial borehole fracturing for CO_(2)storage and enhanced oil recovery

This study introduces a novel method integrating CO_(2)flooding with radial borehole fracturing for enhanced oil recovery and CO_(2)underground storage,a solution to the limited vertical stimulation reservoir volume in horizontal well fracturing.A numerical model is established to investigate the production rate,reservoir pressure field,and CO_(2)saturation distribution corresponding to changing time of CO_(2)flooding with radial borehole fracturing.A sensitivity analysis on the influence of CO_(2)injection location,layer spacing,pressure difference,borehole number,and hydraulic fractures on oil production and CO_(2)storage is conducted.The CO_(2)flooding process is divided into four stages.Reductions in layer spacing will significantly improve oil production rate and gas storage capacity.However,serious gas channeling can occur when the spacing is lower than 20 m.Increasing the pressure difference between the producer and injector,the borehole number,the hydraulic fracture height,and the fracture width can also increase the oil production rate and gas storage rate.Sensitivity analysis shows that layer spacing and fracture height greatly influence gas storage and oil production.Research outcomes are expected to provide a theoretical basis for the efficient development of shale oil reservoirs in the vertical direction.
