The classification method of encrypted traffic based on GNN can deal with encrypted traffic well. However, existing GNN-based approaches ignore the relationship between client or server packets. In this paper, we design a network traffic topology based on GCN, called Flow Mapping Graph (FMG). FMG establishes sequential edges between vertexes by the arrival order of packets and establishes jump-order edges between vertexes by connecting packets in different bursts with the same direction. It not only reflects the time characteristics of the packet but also strengthens the relationship between the client or server packets. According to FMG, a Traffic Mapping Classification model (TMC-GCN) is designed, which can automatically capture and learn the characteristics and structure information of the top vertex in FMG. The TMC-GCN model is used to classify the encrypted traffic. The encryption stream classification problem is transformed into a graph classification problem, which can effectively deal with data from different data sources and application scenarios. By comparing the performance of TMC-GCN with other classical models in four public datasets, including CICIOT2023, ISCXVPN2016, CICAAGM2017, and GraphDapp, the effectiveness of the FMG algorithm is verified. The experimental results show that the accuracy rate of the TMC-GCN model is 96.13%, the recall rate is 95.04%, and the F1 rate is 94.54%.展开更多

文摘Machine learning(ML)is increasingly applied for medical image processing with appropriate learning paradigms.These applications include analyzing images of various organs,such as the brain,lung,eye,etc.,to identify specific flaws/diseases for diagnosis.The primary concern of ML applications is the precise selection of flexible image features for pattern detection and region classification.Most of the extracted image features are irrelevant and lead to an increase in computation time.Therefore,this article uses an analytical learning paradigm to design a Congruent Feature Selection Method to select the most relevant image features.This process trains the learning paradigm using similarity and correlation-based features over different textural intensities and pixel distributions.The similarity between the pixels over the various distribution patterns with high indexes is recommended for disease diagnosis.Later,the correlation based on intensity and distribution is analyzed to improve the feature selection congruency.Therefore,the more congruent pixels are sorted in the descending order of the selection,which identifies better regions than the distribution.Now,the learning paradigm is trained using intensity and region-based similarity to maximize the chances of selection.Therefore,the probability of feature selection,regardless of the textures and medical image patterns,is improved.This process enhances the performance of ML applications for different medical image processing.The proposed method improves the accuracy,precision,and training rate by 13.19%,10.69%,and 11.06%,respectively,compared to other models for the selected dataset.The mean error and selection time is also reduced by 12.56%and 13.56%,respectively,compared to the same models and dataset.
文摘With the widespread use of upper gastrointestinal endoscopy,more and more gastric polyps(GPs)are being detected.Traditional management strategies often rely on histopathologic examination,which can be time-consuming and may not guide immediate clinical decisions.This paper aims to introduce a novel classification system for GPs based on their potential risk of malignant transformation,categorizing them as"good","bad",and"ugly".A review of the literature and clinical case analysis were conducted to explore the clinical implications,management strategies,and the system's application in endoscopic practice.Good polyps,mainly including fundic gland polyps and inflammatory fibrous polyps,have a low risk of malignancy and typically require minimal or no intervention.Bad polyps,mainly including hyperplastic polyps and adenomas,pose an intermediate risk of malignancy,necessitating closer monitoring or removal.Ugly polyps,mainly including type 3 neuroendocrine tumors and early gastric cancer,indicate a high potential for malignancy and require urgent and comprehensive treatment.The new classification system provides a simplified and practical framework for diagnosing and managing GPs,improving diagnostic accuracy,guiding individualized treatment,and promoting advancements in endoscopic techniques.Despite some challenges,such as the risk of misclassification due to similar endoscopic appearances,this system is essential for the standardized management of GPs.It also lays the foundation for future research into biomarkers and the development of personalized medicine.

文摘In response to the scarcity of infrared aircraft samples and the tendency of traditional deep learning to overfit,a few-shot infrared aircraft classification method based on cross-correlation networks is proposed.This method combines two core modules:a simple parameter-free self-attention and cross-attention.By analyzing the self-correlation and cross-correlation between support images and query images,it achieves effective classification of infrared aircraft under few-shot conditions.The proposed cross-correlation network integrates these two modules and is trained in an end-to-end manner.The simple parameter-free self-attention is responsible for extracting the internal structure of the image while the cross-attention can calculate the cross-correlation between images further extracting and fusing the features between images.Compared with existing few-shot infrared target classification models,this model focuses on the geometric structure and thermal texture information of infrared images by modeling the semantic relevance between the features of the support set and query set,thus better attending to the target objects.Experimental results show that this method outperforms existing infrared aircraft classification methods in various classification tasks,with the highest classification accuracy improvement exceeding 3%.In addition,ablation experiments and comparative experiments also prove the effectiveness of the method.
文摘The World Wide Web provides a wealth of information about everything, including contemporary audio and visual art events, which are discussed on media outlets, blogs, and specialized websites alike. This information may become a robust source of real-world data, which may form the basis of an objective data-driven analysis. In this study, a methodology for collecting information about audio and visual art events in an automated manner from a large array of websites is presented in detail. This process uses cutting edge Semantic Web, Web Search and Generative AI technologies to convert website documents into a collection of structured data. The value of the methodology is demonstrated by creating a large dataset concerning audiovisual events in Greece. The collected information includes event characteristics, estimated metrics based on their text descriptions, outreach metrics based on the media that reported them, and a multi-layered classification of these events based on their type, subjects and methods used. This dataset is openly provided to the general and academic public through a Web application. Moreover, each event’s outreach is evaluated using these quantitative metrics, the results are analyzed with an emphasis on classification popularity and useful conclusions are drawn concerning the importance of artistic subjects, methods, and media.
文摘Disease identification for fruits and leaves in the field of agriculture is important for estimating production,crop yield,and earnings for farmers.In the specific case of pomegranates,this is challenging because of the wide range of possible diseases and their effects on the plant and the crop.This study presents an adaptive histogram-based method for solving this problem.Our method describe is domain independent in the sense that it can be easily and efficiently adapted to other similar smart agriculture tasks.The approach explores colour spaces,namely,Red,Green,and Blue along with Grey.The histograms of colour spaces and grey space are analysed based on the notion that as the disease changes,the colour also changes.The proximity between the histograms of grey images with individual colour spaces is estimated to find the closeness of images.Since the grey image is the average of colour spaces(R,G,and B),it can be considered a reference image.For estimating the distance between grey and colour spaces,the proposed approach uses a Chi-Square distance measure.Further,the method uses an Artificial Neural Network for classification.The effectiveness of our approach is demonstrated by testing on a dataset of fruit and leaf images affected by different diseases.The results show that the method outperforms existing techniques in terms of average classification rate.

文摘Automated and accurate movie genre classification is crucial for content organization,recommendation systems,and audience targeting in the film industry.Although most existing approaches focus on audiovisual features such as trailers and posters,the text-based classification remains underexplored despite its accessibility and semantic richness.This paper introduces the Genre Attention Model(GAM),a deep learning architecture that integrates transformer models with a hierarchical attention mechanism to extract and leverage contextual information from movie plots formulti-label genre classification.In order to assess its effectiveness,we assessmultiple transformer-based models,including Bidirectional Encoder Representations fromTransformers(BERT),ALite BERT(ALBERT),Distilled BERT(DistilBERT),Robustly Optimized BERT Pretraining Approach(RoBERTa),Efficiently Learning an Encoder that Classifies Token Replacements Accurately(ELECTRA),eXtreme Learning Network(XLNet)and Decodingenhanced BERT with Disentangled Attention(DeBERTa).Experimental results demonstrate the superior performance of DeBERTa-based GAM,which employs a two-tier hierarchical attention mechanism:word-level attention highlights key terms,while sentence-level attention captures critical narrative segments,ensuring a refined and interpretable representation of movie plots.Evaluated on three benchmark datasets Trailers12K,Large Movie Trailer Dataset-9(LMTD-9),and MovieLens37K.GAM achieves micro-average precision scores of 83.63%,83.32%,and 83.34%,respectively,surpassing state-of-the-artmodels.Additionally,GAMis computationally efficient,requiring just 6.10Giga Floating Point Operations Per Second(GFLOPS),making it a scalable and cost-effective solution.These results highlight the growing potential of text-based deep learning models in genre classification and GAM’s effectiveness in improving predictive accuracy while maintaining computational efficiency.With its robust performance,GAM offers a versatile and scalable framework for content recommendation,film indexing,and media analytics,providing an interpretable alternative to traditional audiovisual-based classification techniques.
文摘The integration of image analysis through deep learning(DL)into rock classification represents a significant leap forward in geological research.While traditional methods remain invaluable for their expertise and historical context,DL offers a powerful complement by enhancing the speed,objectivity,and precision of the classification process.This research explores the significance of image data augmentation techniques in optimizing the performance of convolutional neural networks(CNNs)for geological image analysis,particularly in the classification of igneous,metamorphic,and sedimentary rock types from rock thin section(RTS)images.This study primarily focuses on classic image augmentation techniques and evaluates their impact on model accuracy and precision.Results demonstrate that augmentation techniques like Equalize significantly enhance the model's classification capabilities,achieving an F1-Score of 0.9869 for igneous rocks,0.9884 for metamorphic rocks,and 0.9929 for sedimentary rocks,representing improvements compared to the baseline original results.Moreover,the weighted average F1-Score across all classes and techniques is 0.9886,indicating an enhancement.Conversely,methods like Distort lead to decreased accuracy and F1-Score,with an F1-Score of 0.949 for igneous rocks,0.954 for metamorphic rocks,and 0.9416 for sedimentary rocks,exacerbating the performance compared to the baseline.The study underscores the practicality of image data augmentation in geological image classification and advocates for the adoption of DL methods in this domain for automation and improved results.The findings of this study can benefit various fields,including remote sensing,mineral exploration,and environmental monitoring,by enhancing the accuracy of geological image analysis both for scientific research and industrial applications.

文摘Cyberbullying on social media poses significant psychological risks,yet most detection systems over-simplify the task by focusing on binary classification,ignoring nuanced categories like passive-aggressive remarks or indirect slurs.To address this gap,we propose a hybrid framework combining Term Frequency-Inverse Document Frequency(TF-IDF),word-to-vector(Word2Vec),and Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers(BERT)based models for multi-class cyberbullying detection.Our approach integrates TF-IDF for lexical specificity and Word2Vec for semantic relationships,fused with BERT’s contextual embeddings to capture syntactic and semantic complexities.We evaluate the framework on a publicly available dataset of 47,000 annotated social media posts across five cyberbullying categories:age,ethnicity,gender,religion,and indirect aggression.Among BERT variants tested,BERT Base Un-Cased achieved the highest performance with 93%accuracy(standard deviation across±1%5-fold cross-validation)and an average AUC of 0.96,outperforming standalone TF-IDF(78%)and Word2Vec(82%)models.Notably,it achieved near-perfect AUC scores(0.99)for age and ethnicity-based bullying.A comparative analysis with state-of-the-art benchmarks,including Generative Pre-trained Transformer 2(GPT-2)and Text-to-Text Transfer Transformer(T5)models highlights BERT’s superiority in handling ambiguous language.This work advances cyberbullying detection by demonstrating how hybrid feature extraction and transformer models improve multi-class classification,offering a scalable solution for moderating nuanced harmful content.

文摘The classification of respiratory sounds is crucial in diagnosing and monitoring respiratory diseases.However,auscultation is highly subjective,making it challenging to analyze respiratory sounds accurately.Although deep learning has been increasingly applied to this task,most existing approaches have primarily relied on supervised learning.Since supervised learning requires large amounts of labeled data,recent studies have explored self-supervised and semi-supervised methods to overcome this limitation.However,these approaches have largely assumed a closedset setting,where the classes present in the unlabeled data are considered identical to those in the labeled data.In contrast,this study explores an open-set semi-supervised learning setting,where the unlabeled data may contain additional,unknown classes.To address this challenge,a distance-based prototype network is employed to classify respiratory sounds in an open-set setting.In the first stage,the prototype network is trained using labeled and unlabeled data to derive prototype representations of known classes.In the second stage,distances between unlabeled data and known class prototypes are computed,and samples exceeding an adaptive threshold are identified as unknown.A new prototype is then calculated for this unknown class.In the final stage,semi-supervised learning is employed to classify labeled and unlabeled data into known and unknown classes.Compared to conventional closed-set semisupervised learning approaches,the proposed method achieved an average classification accuracy improvement of 2%–5%.Additionally,in cases of data scarcity,utilizing unlabeled data further improved classification performance by 6%–8%.The findings of this study are expected to significantly enhance respiratory sound classification performance in practical clinical settings.
文摘Purpose:Interdisciplinary research has become a critical approach to addressing complex societal,economic,technological,and environmental challenges,driving innovation and integrating scientific knowledge.While interdisciplinarity indicators are widely used to evaluate research performance,the impact of classification granularity on these assessments remains underexplored.Design/methodology/approach:This study investigates how different levels of classification granularity-macro,meso,and micro-affect the evaluation of interdisciplinarity in research institutes.Using a dataset of 262 institutes from four major German non-university organizations(FHG,HGF,MPG,WGL)from 2018 to 2022,we examine inconsistencies in interdisciplinarity across levels,analyze ranking changes,and explore the influence of institutional fields and research focus(applied vs.basic).Findings:Our findings reveal significant inconsistencies in interdisciplinarity across classification levels,with rankings varying substantially.Notably,the Fraunhofer Society(FHG),which performs well at the macro level,experiences significant ranking declines at meso and micro levels.Normalizing interdisciplinarity by research field confirmed that these declines persist.The research focus of institutes,whether applied,basic,or mixed,does not significantly explain the observed ranking dynamics.Research limitations:This study has only considered the publication-based dimension of institutional interdisciplinarity and has not explored other aspects.Practical implications:The findings provide insights for policymakers,research managers,and scholars to better interpret interdisciplinarity metrics and support interdisciplinary research effectively.Originality/value:This study underscores the critical role of classification granularity in interdisciplinarity assessment and emphasizes the need for standardized approaches to ensure robust and fair evaluations.
