文摘The existence of absorption and reflection of light underwater leads to problems such as color distortion and blue-green bias in underwater images.In this study,a depthwise separable convolution-based generative adversarial network(GAN)algorithm was proposed.Taking GAN as the basic framework,it combined a depthwise separable convolution module,attention mechanism,and reconstructed convolution module to realize the enhancement of underwater degraded images.Multi-scale features were captured by the depthwise separable convolution module,and the attention mechanism was utilized to enhance attention to important features.The reconstructed convolution module further extracts and fuses local and global features.Experimental results showed that the algorithm performs well in improving the color bias and blurring of underwater images,with PSNR reaching 27.835,SSIM reaching 0.883,UIQM reaching 3.205,and UCIQE reaching 0.713.The enhanced image outperforms the comparison algorithm in both subjective and objective metrics.
文摘Distributed Denial of Service(DDoS)attacks are one of the severe threats to network infrastructure,sometimes bypassing traditional diagnosis algorithms because of their evolving complexity.PresentMachine Learning(ML)techniques for DDoS attack diagnosis normally apply network traffic statistical features such as packet sizes and inter-arrival times.However,such techniques sometimes fail to capture complicated relations among various traffic flows.In this paper,we present a new multi-scale ensemble strategy given the Graph Neural Networks(GNNs)for improving DDoS detection.Our technique divides traffic into macro-and micro-level elements,letting various GNN models to get the two corase-scale anomalies and subtle,stealthy attack models.Through modeling network traffic as graph-structured data,GNNs efficiently learn intricate relations among network entities.The proposed ensemble learning algorithm combines the results of several GNNs to improve generalization,robustness,and scalability.Extensive experiments on three benchmark datasets—UNSW-NB15,CICIDS2017,and CICDDoS2019—show that our approach outperforms traditional machine learning and deep learning models in detecting both high-rate and low-rate(stealthy)DDoS attacks,with significant improvements in accuracy and recall.These findings demonstrate the suggested method’s applicability and robustness for real-world implementation in contexts where several DDoS patterns coexist.

文摘Networked predictive control(NPC) has gained significant attention in recent years for its ability to effectively and actively address communication constraints in networked control systems(NCSs),such as network-induced delays,packet dropouts,and packet disorders.Despite significant advancements,the increasing complexity and dynamism of network environments,along with the growing complexity of systems,pose new challenges for NPC.These challenges include difficulties in system modeling,cyber attacks,component faults,limited network bandwidth,and the necessity for distributed collaboration.This survey aims to provide a comprehensive review of NPC strategies.It begins with a summary of the primary challenges faced by NCSs,followed by an introduction to the control structure and core concepts of NPC.The survey then discusses several typical NPC schemes and examines their extensions in the areas of secure control,fault-tolerant control,distributed coordinated control,and event-triggered control.Moreover,it reviews notable works that have implemented these schemes.Finally,the survey concludes by exploring typical applications of NPC schemes and highlighting several challenging issues that could guide future research efforts.
文摘A multi-stimuli-responsive hydrogel,P(VI-co-MAAC-NE),was successfully constructed by covalently integrating the aggregation-induced emission(AIE)moiety(Z)-N-(4-(1-cyano-2-(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)vinyl)-phenyl)methacrylamide(NE)into a dynamic hydrogen-bonding network composed of 1-vinylimidazole(VI)and methacrylic acid(MAAC)groups.The dense hydrogen-bonding network not only provides enhanced mechanical robustness,but also significantly enhances the AIE effect of NE by restricting its molecular motion.Under various external stimuli,the hydrogen bonds within the hydrogel network undergo reversible dissociation and reformation,thus enabling synergistic modulation of the hydrogel’s mechanical properties and luminescence behavior.Specifically,organic solvents disrupt the hydrogen-bonding network and the aggregation of the AIE moiety NE,resulting in macroscopic swelling and fluorescence quenching of the hydrogel.In strongly acidic conditions,protonation of NE molecules suppresses the intramolecular charge transfer(ICT)process,yielding a blue-shifted emission band accompanied by intense blue fluorescence;in highly alkaline environments,deprotonation of carboxyl groups induces hydrogel swelling and disperses NE aggregates,leading to pronounced fluorescence quenching.Moreover,the system exhibits thermally activated shape-memory behavior:heating above the glass transition temperature(T_(g):ca.62℃)softens the hydrogel to allow programmable reshaping,and subsequent hydrogen bond reformation at ambient conditions locks in the resultant geometries without sacrificing the hydrogel’s fluorescence performance.By capitalizing on these multi-stimuli-responsive characteristics and shape-memory behavior,the potential of hydrogel P(VI-co-MAAC-NE)for advanced information encryption and anti-counterfeiting applications is demonstrated.This work not only provides a versatile material platform for sensing and information storage,but also offers new insights into the design of intelligent soft materials integrating AIE features with dynamically regulated supramolecular network structures.

文摘Urbanization is a significant driver of the loss of biodiversity and the disruption of ecosystems.Amphibians are especially vulnerable to the negative impact of urbanization as their life cycles and habitat requirements are complex.The present study investigated the effects of urbanization on amphibian predation networks in suburban Kunming in Yunnan,China and aimed to understand how predation network structure and stability vary with urbanization level.We constructed predation networks by analyzing the stomach contents of amphibians from 12d istinct urbanization gradients.We used the bipartite package in R to evaluate network robustness metrics such as modularity,nestedness,connectivity,and average shortest path length(ASPL).We found that urbanization level is negatively correlated with predation network connectivity(R=−0.67,Ρ=0.02),but there were no significant correlations between urbanization level and nestedness,modularity,or ASPL.Removal of the keystone species destabilized the predation networks at certain locations.The present work highlighted that maintaining prey quantity and diversity preserves predation network connectivity and stabilizes the overall network in urbanizing landscapes.It also underscored the critical role that keystone species play in sustaining network robustness.The results of this research provided insights into the ecological consequences of urbanization.They also suggested that conservation measures should protect the key species and habitats of amphibian predation networks and mitigate the negative impact of urban development on them.

文摘In the process of programmable networks simplifying network management and increasing network flexibility through custom packet behavior,security incidents caused by human logic errors are seriously threatening their safe operation,robust verificationmethods are required to ensure their correctness.As one of the formalmethods,symbolic execution offers a viable approach for verifying programmable networks by systematically exploring all possible paths within a program.However,its application in this field encounters scalability issues due to path explosion and complex constraint-solving.Therefore,in this paper,we propose NetVerifier,a scalable verification system for programmable networks.Tomitigate the path explosion issue,we developmultiple pruning strategies that strategically eliminate irrelevant execution paths while preserving verification integrity by precisely identifying the execution paths related to the verification purpose.To address the complex constraint-solving problem,we introduce an execution results reuse solution to avoid redundant computation of the same constraints.To apply these solutions intelligently,a matching algorithm is implemented to automatically select appropriate solutions based on the characteristics of the verification requirement.Moreover,Language Aided Verification(LAV),an assertion language,is designed to express verification intentions in a concise form.Experimental results on diverse open-source programs of varying scales demonstrate NetVerifier’s improvement in scalability and effectiveness in identifying potential network errors.In the best scenario,compared with ASSERT-P4,NetVerifier reduced the execution path,verification time,and memory occupation of the verification process by 99.92%,94.76%,and 65.19%,respectively.

文摘Near-infrared image sensors are widely used in fields such as material identification,machine vision,and autonomous driving.Lead sulfide colloidal quantum dot-based infrared photodiodes can be integrated with sil⁃icon-based readout circuits in a single step.Based on this,we propose a photodiode based on an n-i-p structure,which removes the buffer layer and further simplifies the manufacturing process of quantum dot image sensors,thus reducing manufacturing costs.Additionally,for the noise complexity in quantum dot image sensors when capturing images,traditional denoising and non-uniformity methods often do not achieve optimal denoising re⁃sults.For the noise and stripe-type non-uniformity commonly encountered in infrared quantum dot detector imag⁃es,a network architecture has been developed that incorporates multiple key modules.This network combines channel attention and spatial attention mechanisms,dynamically adjusting the importance of feature maps to en⁃hance the ability to distinguish between noise and details.Meanwhile,the residual dense feature fusion module further improves the network's ability to process complex image structures through hierarchical feature extraction and fusion.Furthermore,the pyramid pooling module effectively captures information at different scales,improv⁃ing the network's multi-scale feature representation ability.Through the collaborative effect of these modules,the network can better handle various mixed noise and image non-uniformity issues.Experimental results show that it outperforms the traditional U-Net network in denoising and image correction tasks.
文摘Identifying the community structure of complex networks is crucial to extracting insights and understanding network properties.Although several community detection methods have been proposed,many are unsuitable for social networks due to significant limitations.Specifically,most approaches depend mainly on user-user structural links while overlooking service-centric,semantic,and multi-attribute drivers of community formation,and they also lack flexible filtering mechanisms for large-scale,service-oriented settings.Our proposed approach,called community discovery-based service(CDBS),leverages user profiles and their interactions with consulted web services.The method introduces a novel similarity measure,global similarity interaction profile(GSIP),which goes beyond typical similarity measures by unifying user and service profiles for all attributes types into a coherent representation,thereby clarifying its novelty and contribution.It applies multiple filtering criteria related to user attributes,accessed services,and interaction patterns.Experimental comparisons against Louvain,Hierarchical Agglomerative Clustering,Label Propagation and Infomap show that CDBS reveals the higher performance as it achieves 0.74 modularity,0.13 conductance,0.77 coverage,and significantly fast response time of 9.8 s,even with 10,000 users and 400 services.Moreover,community discoverybased service consistently detects a larger number of communities with distinct topics of interest,underscoring its capacity to generate detailed and efficient structures in complex networks.These results confirm both the efficiency and effectiveness of the proposed method.Beyond controlled evaluation,communities discovery based service is applicable to targeted recommendations,group-oriented marketing,access control,and service personalization,where communities are shaped not only by user links but also by service engagement.

文摘With the growing complexity and decentralization of network systems,the attack surface has expanded,which has led to greater concerns over network threats.In this context,artificial intelligence(AI)-based network intrusion detection systems(NIDS)have been extensively studied,and recent efforts have shifted toward integrating distributed learning to enable intelligent and scalable detection mechanisms.However,most existing works focus on individual distributed learning frameworks,and there is a lack of systematic evaluations that compare different algorithms under consistent conditions.In this paper,we present a comprehensive evaluation of representative distributed learning frameworks—Federated Learning(FL),Split Learning(SL),hybrid collaborative learning(SFL),and fully distributed learning—in the context of AI-driven NIDS.Using recent benchmark intrusion detection datasets,a unified model backbone,and controlled distributed scenarios,we assess these frameworks across multiple criteria,including detection performance,communication cost,computational efficiency,and convergence behavior.Our findings highlight distinct trade-offs among the distributed learning frameworks,demonstrating that the optimal choice depends strongly on systemconstraints such as bandwidth availability,node resources,and data distribution.This work provides the first holistic analysis of distributed learning approaches for AI-driven NIDS and offers practical guidelines for designing secure and efficient intrusion detection systems in decentralized environments.

文摘With network attack technology continuing to develop,traditional anomaly traffic detection methods that rely on feature engineering are increasingly insufficient in efficiency and accuracy.Graph Neural Network(GNN),a promising Deep Learning(DL)approach,has proven to be highly effective in identifying intricate patterns in graph⁃structured data and has already found wide applications in the field of network security.In this paper,we propose a hybrid Graph Convolutional Network(GCN)⁃GraphSAGE model for Anomaly Traffic Detection,namely HGS⁃ATD,which aims to improve the accuracy of anomaly traffic detection by leveraging edge feature learning to better capture the relationships between network entities.We validate the HGS⁃ATD model on four publicly available datasets,including NF⁃UNSW⁃NB15⁃v2.The experimental results show that the enhanced hybrid model is 5.71%to 10.25%higher than the baseline model in terms of accuracy,and the F1⁃score is 5.53%to 11.63%higher than the baseline model,proving that the model can effectively distinguish normal traffic from attack traffic and accurately classify various types of attacks.

文摘In this paper,we propose a new privacy-aware transmission scheduling algorithm for 6G ad hoc networks.This system enables end nodes to select the optimum time and scheme to transmit private data safely.In 6G dynamic heterogeneous infrastructures,unstable links and non-uniform hardware capabilities create critical issues regarding security and privacy.Traditional protocols are often too computationally heavy to allow 6G services to achieve their expected Quality-of-Service(QoS).As the transport network is built of ad hoc nodes,there is no guarantee about their trustworthiness or behavior,and transversal functionalities are delegated to the extreme nodes.However,while security can be guaranteed in extreme-to-extreme solutions,privacy cannot,as all intermediate nodes still have to handle the data packets they are transporting.Besides,traditional schemes for private anonymous ad hoc communications are vulnerable against modern intelligent attacks based on learning models.The proposed scheme fulfills this gap.Findings show the probability of a successful intelligent attack reduces by up to 65%compared to ad hoc networks with no privacy protection strategy when used the proposed technology.While congestion probability can remain below 0.001%,as required in 6G services.

文摘Transit managers can use Intelligent Transportation System technologies to access large amounts of data to monitor network status.However,the presentation of the data lacks structural information.Existing single-network description technologies are ineffective in representing the temporal and spatial characteristics simultaneously.Therefore,there is a need for complementary methods to address these deficiencies.To address these limitations,this paper proposes an approach that combines Network Snapshots and Temporal Paths for the scheduled system.A dual information network is constructed to assess the degree of operational deviation considering the planning tasks.To validate the effectiveness,discussions are conducted through a modified cosine similarity calculation on theoretical analysis,delay level description,and the ability to identify abnormal dates.Compared to some state-of-the-art methods,the proposed method achieves an average Spearman delay correlation of 0.847 and a relative distance of 3.477.Furthermore,case analyses are invested in regions of China's Mainland,Europe,and the United States,investigating both the overall and sub-regional network fluctuations.To represent the impact of network fluctuations in sub-regions,a response loss value was developed.The times that are prone to fluctuations are also discussed through the classification of time series data.The research can offer a novel approach to system monitoring,providing a research direction that utilizes individual data combined to represent macroscopic states.Our code will be released at https://github.com/daozhong/STPN.git.
文摘The increasing electrification of urban transportation,i.e.,subways and electric vehicles(EV),brings more interactions between the power system and transportation system and further results in fault propagation across them.To analyze vulnerability of the coupling system under extreme events,this paper establishes a multi-layer urban electric-transportation interdependent network(ETIN)model.First,a weighted coupled metro-road traffic network(CTN)model and network path planning approach are proposed.A prospect theory-based failure load redistribution(FLR)method is further established to account for uncertainty of TN link capacity affected by power supply.Second,topology and emergency control strategy of power network(PN)are modeled,followed by formulation of multi-layer ETIN model.In particular,the inter-layer fault propagation from PN to TN is modeled based on power supply correlation strength,while from TN to PN is modeled based on traffic flow.A few indexes are then defined to quantify vulnerability of ETIN under deliberate attack.Finally,the proposed method is verified on an electric-transportation system to show influence of fault propagations within ETIN on its vulnerability under extreme events.
