Two error-correction coding (ECC) schemes are used here: One scheme, referred to as the vertical ECC (VECC), is to encode information bits in a pixel by error-correction coding where the Gray code is used to improve the performance. The other scheme, referred to as the horizontal ECC (HECC), is to encode information bits in an image plane. In watermarking, HECC generates a codeword representing watermark bits, and each bit of the codeword is encoded by VECC. Simple single-error-correcting block codes are used in VECC and HECC. Several experiments of these schemes were conducted on test images. The result demonstrates that the error-correcting performance of HECC just depends on that of VECC, and accordingly, HECC enhances the capability of VECC. Consequently, HECC with appropriate codes can achieve stronger robustness to JPEG—caused distortions than non-channel-coding watermarking schemes.展开更多

For this purpose, the differences between bit patterns of two Gray codewords are analyzed in detail. On the basis of the properties, a method for encoding watermark bits in the Gray codewords that represent signal levels by a single-error-correcting (SEC) code is developed, which is referred to as the Gray-ECC method in this paper. The two codewords of the SEC code corresponding to respective watermark bits are determined so as to minimize the expected amount of distortion caused by the watermark embedding. The stochastic analyses show that an error-correcting capacity of the Gray-ECC method is superior to that of the ECC in natural binary codes for changes in signal codewords. Experiments of the Gray-ECC method were conducted on 8-bit monochrome images to evaluate both the features of watermarked images and the performance of robustness for image distortion resulting from the JPEG DCT-baseline coding scheme. The results demonstrate that, compared with a conventional averaging-based method, the Gray-ECC method yields watermarked images with less amount of signal distortion and also makes the watermark comparably robust for lossy data compression.展开更多

We also simplify the design process for a multiple quantum error-correction circuit. We compare error-correction schemes for five and three entangled particles in terms of efficiency and capabilities. The results show that error-correction efficiency and fidelity are im- proved.展开更多

文摘In erasure-coded storage systems,updating data requires parity maintenance,which often leads to significant I/O amplification due to“write-after-read”operations.Furthermore,scattered parity placement increases disk seek overhead during repair,resulting in degraded system performance.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a Cognitive Update and Repair Method(CURM)that leverages machine learning to classify files into writeonly,read-only,and read-write categories,enabling tailored update and repair strategies.For write-only and read-write files,CURM employs a data-differencemechanism combined with fine-grained I/O scheduling to minimize redundant read operations and mitigate I/O amplification.For read-write files,CURM further reserves adjacent disk space near parity blocks,supporting parallel reads and reducing disk seek overhead during repair.We implement CURM in a prototype system,Cognitive Update and Repair File System(CURFS),and conduct extensive experiments using realworld Network File System(NFS)and Microsoft Research(MSR)workloads on a 25-node cluster.Experimental results demonstrate that CURMimproves data update throughput by up to 82.52%,reduces recovery time by up to 47.47%,and decreases long-term storage overhead by more than 15% compared to state-of-the-art methods including Full Logging(FL),ParityLogging(PL),ParityLoggingwithReservedspace(PLR),andPARIX.These results validate the effectiveness of CURM in enhancing both update and repair performance,providing a scalable and efficient solution for large-scale erasure-coded storage systems.

文摘Stereolithographic(STL)files have been extensively used in rapid prototyping industries as well as many other fields as watermarking algorithms to secure intellectual property and protect three-dimensional models from theft.However,to the best of our knowledge,few studies have looked at how watermarking can resist attacks that involve vertex-reordering.Here,we present a lossless and robust watermarking scheme for STL files to protect against vertexreordering attacks.Specifically,we designed a novel error-correcting code(ECC)that can correct the error of any one-bit in a bitstream by inserting several check digits.In addition,ECC is designed to make use of redundant information according to the characteristics of STL files,which introduces further robustness for defense against attacks.No modifications are made to the geometric information of the three-dimensional model,which respects the requirements of a highprecision model.The experimental results show that the proposed watermarking scheme can survive numerous kinds of attack,including rotation,scaling and translation(RST),facet reordering,and vertex-reordering attacks.

文摘In this paper, we propose the approach of employing circulant permutation matrices to construct quantum quasicyclic （QC） low-density parity-check （LDPC） codes. Using the proposed approach one may construct some new quantum codes with various lengths and rates of no cycles-length 4 in their Tanner graphs. In addition, these constructed codes have the advantages of simple implementation and low-complexity encoding. Finally, the decoding approach for the proposed quantum QC LDPC is investigated.
文摘In this paper, we discuss the concepts of quantum coding and error correction for a five-particle entangled state. Error correction can correct bit-reverse or phase-flip errors of one and two quantum states and is no longer limited to only one quantum state. We encode a single quantum state into a five-particle entangled state before being transferred to the sender. We designed an automatic error-correction circuit to correct errors caused by noise. We also simplify the design process for a multiple quantum error-correction circuit. We compare error-correction schemes for five and three entangled particles in terms of efficiency and capabilities. The results show that error-correction efficiency and fidelity are im- proved.
文摘This paper points out that with interference from their native language and culture, Chinese students will inevitably make some errors in the process of learning English. It is important for teachers to know when and how to correct the students’ errors. By employing error-correction skillfully and appropriately, one can expect to improve the present English teaching and learning, to develop the self-confidence and self-esteem in students themselves.
