A Privacy Preservation Method for Attributed Social Network Based on Negative Representation of Information

Due to the presence of a large amount of personal sensitive information in social networks,privacy preservation issues in social networks have attracted the attention of many scholars.Inspired by the self-nonself discrimination paradigmin the biological immune system,the negative representation of information indicates features such as simplicity and efficiency,which is very suitable for preserving social network privacy.Therefore,we suggest a method to preserve the topology privacy and node attribute privacy of attribute social networks,called AttNetNRI.Specifically,a negative survey-based method is developed to disturb the relationship between nodes in the social network so that the topology structure can be kept private.Moreover,a negative database-based method is proposed to hide node attributes,so that the privacy of node attributes can be preserved while supporting the similarity estimation between different node attributes,which is crucial to the analysis of social networks.To evaluate the performance of the AttNetNRI,empirical studies have been conducted on various attribute social networks and compared with several state-of-the-art methods tailored to preserve the privacy of social networks.The experimental results show the superiority of the developed method in preserving the privacy of attribute social networks and demonstrate the effectiveness of the topology disturbing and attribute hiding parts.The experimental results show the superiority of the developed methods in preserving the privacy of attribute social networks and demonstrate the effectiveness of the topological interference and attribute-hiding components.

Anomalous node detection in attributed social networks using dual variational autoencoder with generative adversarial networks

Many types of real-world information systems, including social media and e-commerce platforms, can be modelled by means of attribute-rich, connected networks. The goal of anomaly detection in artificial intelligence is to identify illustrations that deviate significantly from the main distribution of data or that differ from known cases. Anomalous nodes in node-attributed networks can be identified with greater precision if both graph and node attributes are taken into account. Almost all of the studies in this area focus on supervised techniques for spotting outliers. While supervised algorithms for anomaly detection work well in theory, they cannot be applied to real-world applications owing to a lack of labelled data. Considering the possible data distribution, our model employs a dual variational autoencoder (VAE), while a generative adversarial network (GAN) assures that the model is robust to adversarial training. The dual VAEs are used in another capacity: as a fake-node generator. Adversarial training is used to ensure that our latent codes have a Gaussian or uniform distribution. To provide a fair presentation of the graph, the discriminator instructs the generator to generate latent variables with distributions that are more consistent with the actual distribution of the data. Once the model has been learned, the discriminator is used for anomaly detection via reconstruction loss which has been trained to distinguish between the normal and artificial distributions of data. First, using a dual VAE, our model simultaneously captures cross-modality interactions between topological structure and node characteristics and overcomes the problem of unlabeled anomalies, allowing us to better understand the network sparsity and nonlinearity. Second, the proposed model considers the regularization of the latent codes while solving the issue of unregularized embedding techniques that can quickly lead to unsatisfactory representation. Finally, we use the discriminator reconstruction loss for anomaly detection as the discriminator is well-trained to separate the normal and generated data distributions because reconstruction-based loss does not include the adversarial component. Experiments conducted on attributed networks demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and show that it greatly surpasses the previous methods. The area under the curve scores of our proposed model for the BlogCatalog, Flickr, and Enron datasets are 0.83680, 0.82020, and 0.71180, respectively, proving the effectiveness of the proposed model. The result of the proposed model on the Enron dataset is slightly worse than other models;we attribute this to the dataset’s low dimensionality as the most probable explanation.

CoLM^(2)S:Contrastive self‐supervised learning on attributed multiplex graph network with multi‐scale information

Contrastive self‐supervised representation learning on attributed graph networks with Graph Neural Networks has attracted considerable research interest recently.However,there are still two challenges.First,most of the real‐word system are multiple relations,where entities are linked by different types of relations,and each relation is a view of the graph network.Second,the rich multi‐scale information(structure‐level and feature‐level)of the graph network can be seen as self‐supervised signals,which are not fully exploited.A novel contrastive self‐supervised representation learning framework on attributed multiplex graph networks with multi‐scale(named CoLM^(2)S)information is presented in this study.It mainly contains two components:intra‐relation contrast learning and interrelation contrastive learning.Specifically,the contrastive self‐supervised representation learning framework on attributed single‐layer graph networks with multi‐scale information(CoLMS)framework with the graph convolutional network as encoder to capture the intra‐relation information with multi‐scale structure‐level and feature‐level selfsupervised signals is introduced first.The structure‐level information includes the edge structure and sub‐graph structure,and the feature‐level information represents the output of different graph convolutional layer.Second,according to the consensus assumption among inter‐relations,the CoLM^(2)S framework is proposed to jointly learn various graph relations in attributed multiplex graph network to achieve global consensus node embedding.The proposed method can fully distil the graph information.Extensive experiments on unsupervised node clustering and graph visualisation tasks demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods,and it outperforms existing competitive baselines.

Relational graph location network for multi-view image localization

Homogeneity Analysis of Multiairport System Based on Airport Attributed Network Representation Learning

The homogeneity analysis of multi-airport system can provide important decision-making support for the route layout and cooperative operation.Existing research seldom analyzes the homogeneity of multi-airport system from the perspective of route network analysis,and the attribute information of airport nodes in the airport route network is not appropriately integrated into the airport network.In order to solve this problem,a multi-airport system homogeneity analysis method based on airport attribute network representation learning is proposed.Firstly,the route network of a multi-airport system with attribute information is constructed.If there are flights between airports,an edge is added between airports,and regional attribute information is added for each airport node.Secondly,the airport attributes and the airport network vector are represented respectively.The airport attributes and the airport network vector are embedded into the unified airport representation vector space by the network representation learning method,and then the airport vector integrating the airport attributes and the airport network characteristics is obtained.By calculating the similarity of the airport vectors,it is convenient to calculate the degree of homogeneity between airports and the homogeneity of the multi-airport system.The experimental results on the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei multi-airport system show that,compared with other existing algorithms,the homogeneity analysis method based on attributed network representation learning can get more consistent results with the current situation of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei multi-airport system.

Color Correction for Multi-view Video Using Energy Minimization of View Networks

Systems using numerous cameras are emerging in many fields due to their ease of production and reduced cost, and one of the fields where they are expected to be used more actively in the near future is in image-based rendering （IBR）. Color correction between views is necessary to use multi-view systems in IBR to make audiences feel comfortable when views are switched or when a free viewpoint video is displayed. Color correction usually involves two steps： the first is to adjust camera parameters such as gain, brightness, and aperture before capture, and the second is to modify captured videos through image processing. This paper deals with the latter, which does not need a color pattern board. The proposed method uses scale invariant feature transform （SIFT） to detect correspondences, treats RGB channels independently, calculates lookup tables with an energy-minimization approach, and corrects captured video with these tables. The experimental results reveal that this approach works well.

A Multi-View Gait Recognition Method Using Deep Convolutional Neural Network and Channel Attention Mechanism

In many existing multi-view gait recognition methods based on images or video sequences,gait sequences are usually used to superimpose and synthesize images and construct energy-like template.However,information may be lost during the process of compositing image and capture EMG signals.Errors and the recognition accuracy may be introduced and affected respectively by some factors such as period detection.To better solve the problems,a multi-view gait recognition method using deep convolutional neural network and channel attention mechanism is proposed.Firstly,the sliding time window method is used to capture EMG signals.Then,the back-propagation learning algorithm is used to train each layer of convolution,which improves the learning ability of the convolutional neural network.Finally,the channel attention mechanism is integrated into the neural network,which will improve the ability of expressing gait features.And a classifier is used to classify gait.As can be shown from experimental results on two public datasets,OULP and CASIA-B,the recognition rate of the proposed method can be achieved at 88.44%and 97.25%respectively.As can be shown from the comparative experimental results,the proposed method has better recognition effect than several other newer convolutional neural network methods.Therefore,the combination of convolutional neural network and channel attention mechanism is of great value for gait recognition.

Estimation of reservoir porosity using probabilistic neural network and seismic attributes

Porosity is one of the most important properties of oil and gas reservoirs. The porosity data that come from well log are only available at well points. It is necessary to use other method to estimate reservoir porosity.Seismic data contain abundant lithological information. Because there are inherent correlations between reservoir property and seismic data,it is possible to estimate reservoir porosity by using seismic data and attributes.Probabilistic neural network is a powerful tool to extract mathematical relation between two data sets. It has been used to extract the mathematical relation between porosity and seismic attributes. Firstly,a seismic impedance volume is calculated by seismic inversion. Secondly,several appropriate seismic attributes are extracted by using multi-regression analysis. Then a probabilistic neural network model is trained to obtain a mathematical relation between porosity and seismic attributes. Finally,this trained probabilistic neural network model is implemented to calculate a porosity data volume. This methodology could be utilized to find advantageous areas at the early stage of exploration. It is also helpful for the establishment of a reservoir model at the stage of reservoir development.

Pedestrian attribute classification with multi-scale and multi-label convolutional neural networks

Pedestrian attribute classification from a pedestrian image captured in surveillance scenarios is challenging due to diverse clothing appearances,varied poses and different camera views. A multiscale and multi-label convolutional neural network( MSMLCNN) is proposed to predict multiple pedestrian attributes simultaneously. The pedestrian attribute classification problem is firstly transformed into a multi-label problem including multiple binary attributes needed to be classified. Then,the multi-label problem is solved by fully connecting all binary attributes to multi-scale features with logistic regression functions. Moreover,the multi-scale features are obtained by concatenating those featured maps produced from multiple pooling layers of the MSMLCNN at different scales. Extensive experiment results show that the proposed MSMLCNN outperforms state-of-the-art pedestrian attribute classification methods with a large margin.

Conditional Generative Adversarial Network Approach for Autism Prediction

Autism Spectrum Disorder(ASD)requires a precise diagnosis in order to be managed and rehabilitated.Non-invasive neuroimaging methods are disease markers that can be used to help diagnose ASD.The majority of available techniques in the literature use functional magnetic resonance imaging(fMRI)to detect ASD with a small dataset,resulting in high accuracy but low generality.Traditional supervised machine learning classification algorithms such as support vector machines function well with unstructured and semi structured data such as text,images,and videos,but their performance and robustness are restricted by the size of the accompanying training data.Deep learning on the other hand creates an artificial neural network that can learn and make intelligent judgments on its own by layering algorithms.It takes use of plentiful low-cost computing and many approaches are focused with very big datasets that are concerned with creating far larger and more sophisticated neural networks.Generative modelling,also known as Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs),is an unsupervised deep learning task that entails automatically discovering and learning regularities or patterns in input data in order for the model to generate or output new examples that could have been drawn from the original dataset.GANs are an exciting and rapidly changingfield that delivers on the promise of generative models in terms of their ability to generate realistic examples across a range of problem domains,most notably in image-to-image translation tasks and hasn't been explored much for Autism spectrum disorder prediction in the past.In this paper,we present a novel conditional generative adversarial network,or cGAN for short,which is a form of GAN that uses a generator model to conditionally generate images.In terms of prediction and accuracy,they outperform the standard GAN.The pro-posed model is 74%more accurate than the traditional methods and takes only around 10 min for training even with a huge dataset.

Modeling of the Shale Volume in the Hendijan Oil Field Using Seismic Attributes and Artificial Neural Networks

Petrophysical properties have played an important and definitive role in the study of oil and gas reservoirs,necessitating that diverse kinds of information are used to infer these properties.In this study,the seismic data related to the Hendijan oil field were utilised,along with the available logs of 7 wells of this field,in order to use the extracted relationships between seismic attributes and the values of the shale volume in the wells to estimate the shale volume in wells intervals.After the overall survey of data,a seismic line was selected and seismic inversion methods(model-based,band limited and sparse spike inversion)were applied to it.Amongst all of these techniques,the model-based method presented the better results.By using seismic attributes and artificial neural networks,the shale volume was then estimated using three types of neural networks,namely the probabilistic neural network(PNN),multi-layer feed-forward network(MLFN)and radial basic function network(RBFN).

The Sensitivity of Model Results to Specification of Network-Based Level of Service Attributes: An Application of a Mixed Logit Model to Trave Mode Choice

The need for travel demand models is growing worldwide. Obtaining reasonably accurate level of service (LOS) attributes of different travel modes such as travel time and cost representing the performance of transportation system is not a trivial task, especially in growing cities of developing countries. This study investigates the sensitivity of results of a travel mode choice model to different specifications of network-based LOS attributes using a mixed logit model. The study also looks at the possibilities of correcting some of the inaccuracies in network-based LOS attributes. Further, the study also explores the effects of different specifications of LOS data on implied values of time and aggregation forecasting. The findings indicate that the implied values of time are very sensitive to specification of data and model implying that utmost care must be taken if the purpose of the model is to estimate values of time. Models estimated on all specifications of LOS-data perform well in prediction, likely suggesting that the extra expense on developing a more detailed and accurate network models so as to derive more precise LOS attributes is unnecessary for impact analyses of some policies.

Text-to-Sketch Synthesis via Adversarial Network

In the past,sketches were a standard technique used for recognizing offenders and have remained a valuable tool for law enforcement and social security purposes.However,relying on eyewitness observations can lead to discrepancies in the depictions of the sketch,depending on the experience and skills of the sketch artist.With the emergence of modern technologies such as Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs),generating images using verbal and textual cues is now possible,resulting in more accurate sketch depictions.In this study,we propose an adversarial network that generates human facial sketches using such cues provided by an observer.Additionally,we have introduced an Inverse Gamma Correction Technique to improve the training and enhance the quality of the generated sketches.To evaluate the effectiveness of our proposed method,we conducted experiments and analyzed the results using the inception score and Frechet Inception Distance metrics.Our proposed method achieved an overall inception score of 1.438±0.049 and a Frechet Inception Distance of 65.29,outperforming other state-of-the-art techniques.
