Asymmetric image encryption algorithm based on a new three-dimensional improved logistic chaotic map

Based on some analyses of existing chaotic image encryption frameworks and a new designed three-dimensional improved logistic chaotic map(3D-ILM),an asymmetric image encryption algorithm using public-key Rivest–Shamir–Adleman(RSA)is presented in this paper.In the first stage,a new 3D-ILM is proposed to enhance the chaotic behavior considering analysis of time sequence,Lyapunov exponent,and Shannon entropy.In the second stage,combined with the public key RSA algorithm,a new key acquisition mathematical model(MKA)is constructed to obtain the initial keys for the 3D-ILM.Consequently,the key stream can be produced depending on the plain image for a higher security.Moreover,a novel process model(NPM)for the input of the 3D-ILM is built,which is built to improve the distribution uniformity of the chaotic sequence.In the third stage,to encrypt the plain image,a pre-process by exclusive OR(XOR)operation with a random matrix is applied.Then,the pre-processed image is performed by a permutation for rows,a downward modulo function for adjacent pixels,a permutation for columns,a forward direction XOR addition-modulo diffusion,and a backward direction XOR addition-modulo diffusion to achieve the final cipher image.Moreover,experiments show that the the proposed algorithm has a better performance.Especially,the number of pixels change rate(NPCR)is close to ideal case 99.6094%,with the unified average changing intensity(UACI)close to 33.4634%,and the information entropy(IE)close to 8.

A modified method of discontinuity trace mapping using three-dimensional point clouds of rock mass surfaces

This paper presents an automated method for discontinuity trace mapping using three-dimensional point clouds of rock mass surfaces.Specifically,the method consists of five steps:(1)detection of trace feature points by normal tensor voting theory,(2)co ntraction of trace feature points,(3)connection of trace feature points,(4)linearization of trace segments,and(5)connection of trace segments.A sensitivity analysis was then conducted to identify the optimal parameters of the proposed method.Three field cases,a natural rock mass outcrop and two excavated rock tunnel surfaces,were analyzed using the proposed method to evaluate its validity and efficiency.The results show that the proposed method is more efficient and accurate than the traditional trace mapping method,and the efficiency enhancement is more robust as the number of feature points increases.

Three-dimensional computed tomography mapping of posterior malleolar fractures

BACKGROUND Posterior malleolar fractures have been reported to occur in<40%of ankle fractures.AIM To reveal the recurrent patterns and characteristics of posterior malleolar fractures by creating fracture maps of the posterior malleolar fractures through the use of computed tomography mapping.METHODS A consecutive series of posterior malleolar fractures was used to create threedimensional reconstruction images,which were oriented and superimposed to fit an ankle model template by both aligning specific biolandmarks and reducing reconstructed fracture fragments.Fracture lines were found and traced in order to generate an ankle fracture map.RESULTS This study involved 112 patients with a mean age of 49,comprising 32 pronationexternal rotation grade IV fractures and 80 supination-external rotation grade IV fractures according to the Lauge-Hansen classification system.Three-dimensional maps showed that the posterior ankle fracture fragments in the supinationexternal rotation grade IV group were relatively smaller than those in the pronation-external rotation grade IV group after posterior malleolus fracture.In addition,the distribution analyses on posterior malleolus fracture lines indicated that the supination-external rotation grade IV group tended to have higher linear density but more concentrated and orderly distribution fractures compared to the pronation-external rotation grade IV group.CONCLUSION Fracture maps revealed the fracture characteristics and recurrent patterns of posterior malleolar fractures,which might help to improve the understanding of ankle fracture as well as increase opportunities for follow-up research and aid clinical decision-making.

Balanced Functional Maps for Three-Dimensional Non-Rigid Shape Registration

Three-dimensional(3D)shape registration is a challenging problem,especially for shapes under non-rigid transformations.In this paper,a 3D non-rigid shape registration method is proposed,called balanced functional maps(BFM).The BFM algorithm generalizes the point-based correspondence to functions.By choosing the Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunctions as the function basis,the transformations between shapes can be represented by the functional map(FM)matrix.In addition,many constraints on shape registration,such as the feature descriptor,keypoint,and salient region correspondence,can be formulated linearly using the matrix.By bi-directionally searching for the nearest neighbors of points’indicator functions in the function space,the point-based correspondence can be derived from FMs.We conducted several experiments on the Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud Applications(TOSCA)dataset and the Shape Completion and Animation of People(SCAPE)dataset.Experimental results show that the proposed BFM algorithm is effective and has superior performance than the state-of-the-art methods on both datasets.

Electro-Anatomical Approach to Membranous Septal Aneurysm: Potential as a Focus of Critical Ventricular Arrhythmias

Membranous septal aneurysm (MSA) is a rare anomaly and known to cause ventricular tachycardia and atrioventricular block. However, underlying mechanisms have not been addressed in its long history. We report first 3-D electro-anatomical mapping of MSA during and three years following the surgery. An elderly patient underwent a surgery for MSA. In the mapping, we located the His bundle near MSA and observed delayed potentials around MSA. Our report showed that electrophysiological character of myocardium was changed around MSA and this change might be a reason for ventricular tachycardia and atrioventricular block. An ordinary surgery for MSA might not resolve this problem since we still observed delayed potentials three years after the surgery.

Multispectral image compression and encryption method based on tensor decomposition in wavelet domain

Multispectral image compression and encryption algorithms commonly suffer from issues such as low compression efficiency,lack of synchronization between the compression and encryption proces-ses,and degradation of intrinsic image structure.A novel approach is proposed to address these is-sues.Firstly,a chaotic sequence is generated using the Lorenz three-dimensional chaotic mapping to initiate the encryption process,which is XORed with each spectral band of the multispectral image to complete the initial encryption of the image.Then,a two-dimensional lifting 9/7 wavelet transform is applied to the processed image.Next,a key-sensitive Arnold scrambling technique is employed on the resulting low-frequency image.It effectively eliminates spatial redundancy in the multispectral image while enhancing the encryption process.To optimize the compression and encryption processes further,fast Tucker decomposition is applied to the wavelet sub-band tensor.It effectively removes both spectral redundancy and residual spatial redundancy in the multispectral image.Finally,the core tensor and pattern matrix obtained from the decomposition are subjected to entropy encoding,and real-time chaotic encryption is implemented during the encoding process,effectively integrating compression and encryption.The results show that the proposed algorithm is suitable for occasions with high requirements for compression and encryption,and it provides valuable insights for the de-velopment of compression and encryption in multispectral field.

Initial experience with circumferential pulmonary vein ablation guided by fusion of magnetic resonance imaging with three-dimensional electroanatomic mapping

Catheter ablation for the treatment of atrial fibrillation （AF） has been a focal target ofelectrophysiological study in recent years. Up to date, circumferential pulmonary vein ablation （CPVA） guided by three-dimensional （3-D） electreanatomic mapping （Carto, USA） has been one of the most favourable procedures for the treatment of AF. However, it is still difficult to acquire the detailed information on number, location, and branching pattern of all pulmonary veins （PVs） when the 3-D electroanatomic mapping system is used alone.

A novel mapping algorithm for three-dimensional network on chip based on quantum-behaved particle swarm optimization

Mapping of three-dimensional network on chip is a key problem in the research of three-dimensional network on chip. The quality of the mapping algorithm used di- rectly affects the communication efficiency between IP cores and plays an important role in the optimization of power consumption and throughput of the whole chip. In this paper, ba- sic concepts and related work of three-dimensional network on chip are introduced. Quantum-behaved particle swarm op- timization algorithm is applied to the mapping problem of three-dimensional network on chip for the first time. Sim- ulation results show that the mapping algorithm based on quantum-behaved particle swarm algorithm has faster con- vergence speed with much better optimization performance compared with the mapping algorithm based on particle swarm algorithm. It also can effectively reduce the power consumption of mapping of three-dimensional network on chip.

Three-dimensional Dominant Frequency Mapping Using Autoregressive Spectral Analysis of Atrial Electrograms of Patients in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation

Areas with high frequency activity within the atrium are thought to be 'drivers' of the rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and ablation of these areas seems to be an effective therapy in e-liminating DF gradient and restoring sinus rhythm. Clinical groups have applied the traditional FFT-based approach to generate the three-dimensional dominant frequency (3D DF) maps during electro-physiology (EP) procedures but literature is restricted on using alternative spectral estimation tech-niques that can have a better frequency resolution that FFT-based spectral estimation.

RATE-DEPENDENT SLOW CONDUCTION VELOCITY IN THE CAVO-TRICUSPID ISTHMUS AND SEPTUM IN PATIENTS WITH ATRIAL FLUTTER

Purpose. To evaluate and compare the effects of heart rate on conduction velocity in the cavotricus-pid isthmus (CTI) and septum in patients with and without typical atrial flutter (AF) using electro-anatomic mapping (EAM) of the right atrium (RA).Methods. Ten patients(age 53+10 yrs,7M/3F)with AF and 13 patients (age 51+11 yrs, 5M/8F) with atrio-ventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) underwent conventional electrophysionogical study, electro -anatomic mapping and radiofrequency ablation. Using EAMs obtained during coronary sinus pacing at pacing cycle length (PCL) 600 ms, 400 ms, and 300 ms, we evaluated conduction velocities in the CTI and septum of RA in 10 patients with AF and compared EAMs to 13 patients with AVNRT to determine whether the conduction slowing required to maintain AFL was related to changes in volume alone or altered RA electrophysiology.Results. Conduction velocities in CTI and septum were significantly slower at all PCL when AF was compared to AVNRT(P<0.05). Additionally, in the AF group, septal conduction velocities were slower at PCL 600 ms and 400 ms, but not at 300 ms compared to CTI (P<0.05). In AF, during PCL 300. conduction in CTI slowed significantly compared to PCL 600 and 400 ms such that there was no difference between CTI and septum at PCL 300.Conclusions. There is slower conduction in the septum compared to the CTI in all patients. However, in patients with AF, there is significant slowing of conduction in the CTI and septum as well as decremen-tal rate-dependent slowing of conduction in the CTI. These findings indicate that in addition to RA enlargement, changes in atrial electrophysiology distinguish AF patients from patients with AVNRT.

Reduction of radiation exposure in catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation: Lesson learned

Over the last decades, the concern for the radiation injury hazard to the patients and the professional staff has increased in the medical community. Since there is no magnitude of radiation exposure that is known to be completely safe, the use of ionizing radiation during medical diagnostic or interventional procedures should be as low as reasonably achievable(ALARA principle). Nevertheless, in cardiovascular medicine, radiation exposure for coronary percutaneous interventions or catheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias may be high: for ablation of a complex arrhythmia, such as atrial fibrillation, the mean dose can be > 15 m Sv and in some cases > 50 m Sv. In interventional electrophysiology, although fluoroscopy has been widely used since the beginning to navigate catheters in the heart and the vessels and to monitor their position, the procedure is not based on fluoroscopic imaging. Therefore, nonfluoroscopic three-dimensional systems can be used to navigate electrophysiology catheters in the heart with no or minimal use of fluoroscopy. Although zerofluoroscopy procedures are feasible in limited series, there may be difficulties in using no fluoroscopy on a routine basis. Currently, a significant reduction in radiation exposure towards near zero-fluoroscopy procedures seems a simpler task to achieve, especially in ablation of complex arrhythmias, such as atrial fibrillation. The data reported in the literature suggest the following three considerations. First, the use of the non-fluoroscopic systems is associated with a consistent reduction in radiation exposure in multiple centers: the more sophisticated and reliable this technology is, the higher the reduction in radiation exposure. Second, the use of these systems does not automatically lead to reduction of radiation exposure, but an optimized workflow should be developed and adopted for a safe non-fluoroscopic navigation of catheters. Third, at any level of expertise, there is a specific learning curve for the operators in the non-fluoroscopic manipulation of catheters; however, the learning curve is shorter for more experienced operators compared to less experienced operators.

Generalized Synchronization of Time-Delayed Discrete Systems

This paper establishes two theorems for two time-delayed （chaotic） discrete systems to achieve timedelayed generalized synchronization （TDGS）. These two theorems uncover the genera/forms of two TDGS systems via a prescribed transformation. As examples, we convert the Lorenz three-dimensional chaotic map to an equal time-delayed system as the driving system, and construct the TDGS driven systems according to the Theorems 1 and 2. Numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed theorems.

Modeling and volume rendering approach of underwater three-dimensional acoustic energy field

The underwater acoustics is primary and most effective method for underwater object detection and the complex underwater acoustics battlefield environment can be visually described by the three-dimensional(3D)energy field.Through solving the 3D propagation models,the traditional underwater acoustics volume data can be obtained,but it is large amount of calculation.In this paper,a novel modeling approach,which transforms two-dimensional(2D)wave equation into 2D space and optimizes energy loss propagation model,is proposed.In this way,the information for the obtained volume data will not be lost too much.At the same time,it can meet the requirements of data processing for the real-time visualization.In the process of volume rendering,3D texture mapping methods is used.The experimental results are evaluated on data size and frame rate,showing that our approach outperforms other approaches and the approach can achieve better results in real time and visual effects.

Coronary sinus reentrant tachycardia after atrial fibrillation ablation: From bad to worse

Herein we present a case of atrial tachycardia as a sequel of AF ablations. A 42-year-old man was admitted to our department because of a very symptomatic tachycardia. The patient, because of paroxysmal AF and typical atrial flutter, had been already submitted (three times) to ablation procedures in both left (pulmonary vein insulation) and right atria (cavo-tricuspidal isthmus). During the electrophysiological study, a huge and very fast atrial tachycardia was induced: 230 ms cycle length, 1/1 atrio-ventricular conduction with the ventricular rate of 260 bpm, complete left bundle branch block, and clinically recognized by the patient. Four minutes later, a 2/1 AV conduction without branch block permitted mapping and ablation. A high-density mapping around isthmus and coronary sinus (CS) was performed. The analysis of the chronological activation clearly showed a circuit propagation around the CS ostium with a very slow conduction in the anterior zone enlightened by the tight color progression, and counterclockwise activation of the right atrium lateral wall. In anterior zone of CS ostium diastolic fragmented electrograms were detected. After preventing his position localization, radiofrequency delivering (35 W) was effective to interrupt the arrhythmia in 3 seconds. Energy delivering was continued to anchor the lesion to the inferior vena cava. Confirmation of successful ablation was determined by unsuccessful attempts at reinduction of the arrhythmia, in basal state and during infusion of isoproterenol.

CartoXP Guided Catheter Ablation for Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Without Three-dimensional Modeling of Left Atrium and Pulmonary Veins

Objectives This study was to investigate the differences between modeling and non-modeling left atrium （LA） in CartoXP system guided catheter ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation （PAF）. Methods From Jan to Dec in 2008 total 31 cases with PAF were enrolled. All were treated by the same electrophysiologist with CartoXP guidance. Catheter ablation was accomplished without left atrium and pulmonary veins modeling in 17 patients （non-modeling group） and with left atrium modeling in 14 patients （modeling group）. The detailed ablation method was based on circumferential pulmonary veins isolation （CPVI）. And linear ablation of tricuspid valvular isthmus was performed individually. The ablation endpoint was a complete isolation of pulmonary vein potential from left atrium and no further induced continuous fast atrial arrhythmia including atrial fibrillation （AF）, atrial flutter （AFL） and atrial tachycardia （AT）. Each step for the procedures and the follow-up outcomes were compared correspondingly. Results The total procedure time was 107.23 ± 28.92 min in modeling group vs 93.47 ±26.09 min in non-modeling group （ P 〉 0.05 ）. The X-ray exposure time was significantly longer in modeling group （21.09 ±6. 49 rain） than in non-modeling group （14. 16 ± 5.35 min）. The CPVI times of right pulmonary veins and left pulmonary veins were 28. 14 ± 9. 26 min was 27.29 ± 18.53 min in modeling group respectively, vs 18.00 ±4. 51 min and 23.94 ± 7. 10 min in non-modeling group respectively, （P 〈 0. 05 ）. There is no significant difference between modeling group （85.7%） and non-modeling group （82.4%） over follow-up period of 2 to 13 months. Confusions CartoXP system guided catheter ablation of PAF without modeling of left atrium and pulmonary veins took less time in X-ray exposure and ablation steps, comparing with left atrium modeling procedure.

Statistical Characteristics of Partial Discharge Caused by Typical Defects in Cable Joint under Oscillating Voltage

The oscillating voltage test is a nondestructive detection method for partial discharge of XLPE （cross linked polyethylene） cable and has been applied recently. This paper made three kinds of varying severity artificial defect models of cable joints in 10 kV XLPE cable. Oscillating voltage is applied to the model, by use of pulse current method to detect partial discharge signals. In order to study the statistical characteristics of partial discharge of cable joint under the oscillating voltage, three-dimensional statistical map has been made. The results show that for the same kind of defects, with the increases of the defect severity, the discharge interval extended, the magnitude and the number of partial discharge increase, for different kinds of defects, obvious differences exist among the maps, this may established a foundation for the further study of the partial discharge pattern recognition of XLPE cable under oscillating voltage.
