PHISHING WEB IMAGE SEGMENTATION BASED ON IMPROVING SPECTRAL CLUSTERING

This paper proposes a novel phishing web image segmentation algorithm which based on improving spectral clustering.Firstly,we construct a set of points which are composed of spatial location pixels and gray levels from a given image.Secondly,the data is clustered in spectral space of the similar matrix of the set points,in order to avoid the drawbacks of K-means algorithm in the conventional spectral clustering method that is sensitive to initial clustering centroids and convergence to local optimal solution,we introduce the clone operator,Cauthy mutation to enlarge the scale of clustering centers,quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithm to find the global optimal clustering centroids.Compared with phishing web image segmentation based on K-means,experimental results show that the segmentation performance of our method gains much improvement.Moreover,our method can convergence to global optimal solution and is better in accuracy of phishing web segmentation.

A Dynamic Steganography Method for Web Images with Average Run- Length-Coding

Web page has many redundancies,especially the dynamic html multimedia object.This paper proposes a novel method to employ the commonly used image elements on web pages.Due to the various types of image format and complexity of image contents and their position information,secret message bits could be coded to embed in these complex redundancies.Together with a specific covering code called average run-length-coding,the embedding efficiency could be reduced to a low level and the resulting capacity outperforms traditional content-based image steganography,which modifies the image data itself and causes a real image quality degradation.Our experiment result demonstrates that the proposed method has limited processing latency and high embedding capacity.What’s more,this method has a low algorithm complexity and less image quality distortion compared with existing steganography methods.

Learning a hierarchical image manifold for Web image classification

Image classification is an essential task in content-based image retrieval.However,due to the semantic gap between low-level visual features and high-level semantic concepts,and the diversification of Web images,the performance of traditional classification approaches is far from users' expectations.In an attempt to reduce the semantic gap and satisfy the urgent requirements for dimensionality reduction,high-quality retrieval results,and batch-based processing,we propose a hierarchical image manifold with novel distance measures for calculation.Assuming that the images in an image set describe the same or similar object but have various scenes,we formulate two kinds of manifolds,object manifold and scene manifold,at different levels of semantic granularity.Object manifold is developed for object-level classification using an algorithm named extended locally linear embedding(ELLE) based on intra-and inter-object difference measures.Scene manifold is built for scene-level classification using an algorithm named locally linear submanifold extraction(LLSE) by combining linear perturbation and region growing.Experimental results show that our method is effective in improving the performance of classifying Web images.

Image interpretation: mining the visible and syntactic correlation of annotated words

Automatic web image annotation is a practical and effective way for both web image retrieval and image understanding. However, current annotation techniques make no further investigation of the statement-level syntactic correlation among the annotated words, therefore making it very difficult to render natural language interpretation for images such as "pandas eat bamboo". In this paper, we propose an approach to interpret image semantics through mining the visible and textual information hidden in images. This approach mainly consists of two parts: first the annotated words of target images are ranked according to two factors, namely the visual correlation and the pairwise co-occurrence; then the statement-level syntactic correlation among annotated words is explored and natural language interpretation for the target image is obtained. Experiments conducted on real-world web images show the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
