Nevertheless, the reliability of cloud servers as third-party providers is not always guaranteed. To safeguard against the exposure and misuse of personal privacy information, and achieve secure and efficient retrieval, a secure medical image retrieval based on a multi-attention mechanism and triplet deep hashing is proposed in this paper (abbreviated as MATDH). Specifically, this method first utilizes the contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization method applicable to color images to enhance chest X-ray images. Next, a designed multi-attention mechanism focuses on important local features during the feature extraction stage. Moreover, a triplet loss function is utilized to learn discriminative hash codes to construct a compact and efficient triplet deep hashing. Finally, upsampling is used to restore the original resolution of the images during retrieval, thereby enabling more accurate matching. To ensure the security of medical image data, a lightweight image encryption method based on frequency domain encryption is designed to encrypt the chest X-ray images. The findings of the experiment indicate that, in comparison to various advanced image retrieval techniques, the suggested approach improves the precision of feature extraction and retrieval using the COVIDx dataset. Additionally, it offers enhanced protection for the confidentiality of medical images stored in cloud settings and demonstrates strong practicality.展开更多

文摘Traditional steganography conceals information by modifying cover data,but steganalysis tools easily detect such alterations.While deep learning-based steganography often involves high training costs and complex deployment.Diffusion model-based methods face security vulnerabilities,particularly due to potential information leakage during generation.We propose a fixed neural network image steganography framework based on secure diffu-sion models to address these challenges.Unlike conventional approaches,our method minimizes cover modifications through neural network optimization,achieving superior steganographic performance in human visual perception and computer vision analyses.The cover images are generated in an anime style using state-of-the-art diffusion models,ensuring the transmitted images appear more natural.This study introduces fixed neural network technology that allows senders to transmit only minimal critical information alongside stego-images.Recipients can accurately reconstruct secret images using this compact data,significantly reducing transmission overhead compared to conventional deep steganography.Furthermore,our framework innovatively integrates ElGamal,a cryptographic algorithm,to protect critical information during transmission,enhancing overall system security and ensuring end-to-end information protection.This dual optimization of payload reduction and cryptographic reinforcement establishes a new paradigm for secure and efficient image steganography.

文摘The performance of traditional regular Intelligent Reflecting Surface(IRS)improves as the number of IRS elements increases,but more reflecting elements lead to higher IRS power consumption and greater overhead of channel estimation.The Irregular Intelligent Reflecting Surface(IIRS)can enhance the performance of the IRS as well as boost the system performance when the number of reflecting elements is limited.However,due to the lack of radio frequency chain in IRS,it is challenging for the Base Station(BS)to gather perfect Channel State Information(CSI),especially in the presence of Eavesdroppers(Eves).Therefore,in this paper we investigate the minimum transmit power problem of IIRS-aided Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer(SWIPT)secure communication system with imperfect CSI of BS-IIRS-Eves links,which is subject to the rate outage probability constraints of the Eves,the minimum rate constraints of the Information Receivers(IRs),the energy harvesting constraints of the Energy Receivers(ERs),and the topology matrix constraints.Afterward,the formulated nonconvex problem can be efficiently tackled by employing joint optimization algorithm combined with successive refinement method and adaptive topology design method.Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme and the superiority of IIRS.

文摘Medical institutions frequently utilize cloud servers for storing digital medical imaging data, aiming to lower both storage expenses and computational expenses. Nevertheless, the reliability of cloud servers as third-party providers is not always guaranteed. To safeguard against the exposure and misuse of personal privacy information, and achieve secure and efficient retrieval, a secure medical image retrieval based on a multi-attention mechanism and triplet deep hashing is proposed in this paper (abbreviated as MATDH). Specifically, this method first utilizes the contrast-limited adaptive histogram equalization method applicable to color images to enhance chest X-ray images. Next, a designed multi-attention mechanism focuses on important local features during the feature extraction stage. Moreover, a triplet loss function is utilized to learn discriminative hash codes to construct a compact and efficient triplet deep hashing. Finally, upsampling is used to restore the original resolution of the images during retrieval, thereby enabling more accurate matching. To ensure the security of medical image data, a lightweight image encryption method based on frequency domain encryption is designed to encrypt the chest X-ray images. The findings of the experiment indicate that, in comparison to various advanced image retrieval techniques, the suggested approach improves the precision of feature extraction and retrieval using the COVIDx dataset. Additionally, it offers enhanced protection for the confidentiality of medical images stored in cloud settings and demonstrates strong practicality.

文摘Continuous-variable quantum secure direct communication(CVQSDC)with Gaussian modulation(GM)demands a considerable quantity of random numbers during the preparation process and encodes them separately on the quadrature components of the quantum states.Hence,high-speed random number generators are required to satisfy this demand,which is difficult to implement in practical applications.CVQSDC with discrete modulation(DM),correspondingly,employs a finite number of quantum states to achieve encoding,which can circumvent the shortcomings of the GM scheme.Based on the advantages of DM,the issue of attaining the most optimal secrecy capacity and communication distance remains to be resolved.Here,we propose a CVQSDC protocol based on N-symbol amplitude phase shift keying(N-APSK),which exploits the Boltzmann-Maxwell distribution assisted probability shaping technique.In comparison with the uniform distribution,according to 32-APSK CVQSDC,the proposed scheme extends the communication distance by about 38%,while obtaining a higher secrecy capacity at the same communication distance.Furthermore,increasing the value of N will concurrently increase the quantity of rings in the constellation,thereby facilitating enhancements of communication distance.This work incorporates the modulation approaches prevalently employed in classical communication into the realm of quantum communication,attaining gratifying advancements in communication distance and secrecy capacity,and concurrently facilitating the integrated development of quantum communication and classical communication.

文摘Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access(NOMA)assisted Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)communication is becoming a promising technique for future B5G/6G networks.However,the security of the NOMA-UAV networks remains critical challenges due to the shared wireless spectrum and Line-of-Sight(LoS)channel.This paper formulates a joint UAV trajectory design and power allocation problem with the aid of the ground jammer to maximize the sum secrecy rate.First,the joint optimization problem is modeled as a Markov Decision Process(MDP).Then,the Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL)method is utilized to search the optimal policy from the continuous action space.In order to accelerate the sample accumulation,the Asynchronous Advantage Actor-Critic(A3C)scheme with multiple workers is proposed,which reformulates the action and reward to acquire complete update duration.Simulation results demonstrate that the A3C-based scheme outperforms the baseline schemes in term of the secrecy rate and stability.

文摘Integrating Artificial Intelligence of Things(AIoT)in healthcare offers transformative potential for real-time diagnostics and collaborative learning but presents critical challenges,including privacy preservation,computational efficiency,and regulatory compliance.Traditional approaches,such as differential privacy,homomorphic encryption,and secure multi-party computation,often fail to balance performance and privacy,rendering them unsuitable for resource-constrained healthcare AIoT environments.This paper introduces LMSA(Lightweight Multi-Key Secure Aggregation),a novel framework designed to address these challenges and enable efficient,secure federated learning across distributed healthcare institutions.LMSA incorporates three key innovations:(1)a lightweight multikey management system leveraging Diffie-Hellman key exchange and SHA3-256 hashing,achieving O(n)complexity with AES(Advanced Encryption Standard)-256-level security;(2)a privacy-preserving aggregation protocol employing hardware-accelerated AES-CTR(CounTeR)encryption andmodular arithmetic for securemodel weight combination;and(3)a resource-optimized implementation utilizing AES-NI(New Instructions)instructions and efficient memory management for real-time operations on constrained devices.Experimental evaluations using the National Institutes of Health(NIH)Chest X-ray dataset demonstrate LMSA’s ability to train multi-label thoracic disease prediction models with Vision Transformer(ViT),ResNet-50,and MobileNet architectures across distributed healthcare institutions.Memory usage analysis confirmed minimal overhead,with ViT(327.30 MB),ResNet-50(89.87 MB),and MobileNet(8.63 MB)maintaining stable encryption times across communication rounds.LMSA ensures robust security through hardware acceleration,enabling real-time diagnostics without compromising patient confidentiality or regulatory compliance.Future research aims to optimize LMSA for ultra-low-power devices and validate its scalability in heterogeneous,real-world environments.LMSA represents a foundational advancement for privacy-conscious healthcare AI applications,bridging the gap between privacy and performance.

文摘Accurate time synchronization is fundamental to the correct and efficient operation of Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs),especially in security-critical,time-sensitive applications.However,most existing protocols degrade substantially under malicious interference.We introduce iSTSP,an Intelligent and Secure Time Synchronization Protocol that implements a four-stage defense pipeline to ensure robust,precise synchronization even in hostile environments:(1)trust preprocessing that filters node participation using behavioral trust scoring;(2)anomaly isolation employing a lightweight autoencoder to detect and excise malicious nodes in real time;(3)reliability-weighted consensus that prioritizes high-trust nodes during time aggregation;and(4)convergence-optimized synchronization that dynamically adjusts parameters using theoretical stability bounds.We provide rigorous convergence analysis including a closed-form expression for convergence time,and validate the protocol through both simulations and realworld experiments on a controlled 16-node testbed.Under Sybil attacks with five malicious nodes within this testbed,iSTSP maintains synchronization error increases under 12%and achieves a rapid convergence.Compared to state-ofthe-art protocols like TPSN,SE-FTSP,and MMAR-CTS,iSTSP offers 60%faster detection,broader threat coverage,and more than 7 times lower synchronization error,with a modest 9.3%energy overhead over 8 h.We argue this is an acceptable trade-off for mission-critical deployments requiring guaranteed security.These findings demonstrate iSTSP’s potential as a reliable solution for secure WSN synchronization and motivate future work on large-scale IoT deployments and integration with energy-efficient communication protocols.
