文摘Photoacoustic-computed tomography is a novel imaging technique that combines high absorption contrast and deep tissue penetration capability,enabling comprehensive three-dimensional imaging of biological targets.However,the increasing demand for higher resolution and real-time imaging results in significant data volume,limiting data storage,transmission and processing efficiency of system.Therefore,there is an urgent need for an effective method to compress the raw data without compromising image quality.This paper presents a photoacoustic-computed tomography 3D data compression method and system based on Wavelet-Transformer.This method is based on the cooperative compression framework that integrates wavelet hard coding with deep learning-based soft decoding.It combines the multiscale analysis capability of wavelet transforms with the global feature modeling advantage of Transformers,achieving high-quality data compression and reconstruction.Experimental results using k-wave simulation suggest that the proposed compression system has advantages under extreme compression conditions,achieving a raw data compression ratio of up to 1:40.Furthermore,three-dimensional data compression experiment using in vivo mouse demonstrated that the maximum peak signal-to-noise ratio(PSNR)and structural similarity index(SSIM)values of reconstructed images reached 38.60 and 0.9583,effectively overcoming detail loss and artifacts introduced by raw data compression.All the results suggest that the proposed system can significantly reduce storage requirements and hardware cost,enhancing computational efficiency and image quality.These advantages support the development of photoacoustic-computed tomography toward higher efficiency,real-time performance and intelligent functionality.
文摘Amid the increasing demand for data sharing,the need for flexible,secure,and auditable access control mechanisms has garnered significant attention in the academic community.However,blockchain-based ciphertextpolicy attribute-based encryption(CP-ABE)schemes still face cumbersome ciphertext re-encryption and insufficient oversight when handling dynamic attribute changes and cross-chain collaboration.To address these issues,we propose a dynamic permission attribute-encryption scheme for multi-chain collaboration.This scheme incorporates a multiauthority architecture for distributed attribute management and integrates an attribute revocation and granting mechanism that eliminates the need for ciphertext re-encryption,effectively reducing both computational and communication overhead.It leverages the InterPlanetary File System(IPFS)for off-chain data storage and constructs a cross-chain regulatory framework—comprising a Hyperledger Fabric business chain and a FISCO BCOS regulatory chain—to record changes in decryption privileges and access behaviors in an auditable manner.Security analysis shows selective indistinguishability under chosen-plaintext attack(sIND-CPA)security under the decisional q-Parallel Bilinear Diffie-Hellman Exponent Assumption(q-PBDHE).In the performance and experimental evaluations,we compared the proposed scheme with several advanced schemes.The results show that,while preserving security,the proposed scheme achieves higher encryption/decryption efficiency and lower storage overhead for ciphertexts and keys.
文摘With the popularization of new technologies,telephone fraud has become the main means of stealing money and personal identity information.Taking inspiration from the website authentication mechanism,we propose an end-to-end datamodem scheme that transmits the caller’s digital certificates through a voice channel for the recipient to verify the caller’s identity.Encoding useful information through voice channels is very difficult without the assistance of telecommunications providers.For example,speech activity detection may quickly classify encoded signals as nonspeech signals and reject input waveforms.To address this issue,we propose a novel modulation method based on linear frequency modulation that encodes 3 bits per symbol by varying its frequency,shape,and phase,alongside a lightweightMobileNetV3-Small-based demodulator for efficient and accurate signal decoding on resource-constrained devices.This method leverages the unique characteristics of linear frequency modulation signals,making them more easily transmitted and decoded in speech channels.To ensure reliable data delivery over unstable voice links,we further introduce a robust framing scheme with delimiter-based synchronization,a sample-level position remedying algorithm,and a feedback-driven retransmission mechanism.We have validated the feasibility and performance of our system through expanded real-world evaluations,demonstrating that it outperforms existing advanced methods in terms of robustness and data transfer rate.This technology establishes the foundational infrastructure for reliable certificate delivery over voice channels,which is crucial for achieving strong caller authentication and preventing telephone fraud at its root cause.

文摘Artificial Intelligence(AI)in healthcare enables predicting diabetes using data-driven methods instead of the traditional ways of screening the disease,which include hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c),oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT),and fasting plasma glucose(FPG)screening techniques,which are invasive and limited in scale.Machine learning(ML)and deep neural network(DNN)models that use large datasets to learn the complex,nonlinear feature interactions,but the conventional ML algorithms are data sensitive and often show unstable predictive accuracy.Conversely,DNN models are more robust,though the ability to reach a high accuracy rate consistently on heterogeneous datasets is still an open challenge.For predicting diabetes,this work proposed a hybrid DNN approach by integrating a bidirectional long short-term memory(BiLSTM)network with a bidirectional gated recurrent unit(BiGRU).A robust DL model,developed by combining various datasets with weighted coefficients,dense operations in the connection of deep layers,and the output aggregation using batch normalization and dropout functions to avoid overfitting.The goal of this hybrid model is better generalization and consistency among various datasets,which facilitates the effective management and early intervention.The proposed DNN model exhibits an excellent predictive performance as compared to the state-of-the-art and baseline ML and DNN models for diabetes prediction tasks.The robust performance indicates the possible usefulness of DL-based models in the development of disease prediction in healthcare and other areas that demand high-quality analytics.

文摘Reducing carbon emissions is fundamental to achieving carbon neutrality.Existing studies have typically estimated emissions by predicting fossil fuel consumption across sectors under different socioeconomic scenarios;however,uncertainties in future development often lead to deviations from these assumptions.To address this limitation,this study proposes a data-driven approach for evaluating national carbon emissions using historical data.Countries with similar energy consumption patterns were selected as reference samples,and their emission pathways were analyzed to predict future emissions for countries that have not yet reached their peak.Key indicators,including peak levels,timing,plateau duration,and post-peak decline rates,were identified.The results indicate that the trends in unpeaked economies can be effectively assessed based on the emission patterns of countries with comparable energy structures.Applying this framework to China suggests a carbon peak between 2027 and 2030,in the range of 14.207 to 16.234 Gt,followed by a gradual decline from 2031 to 2036.Compared with the average results of the existing studies,the predicted minimum and maximum emissions show error margins of 10.1% and 1.41%,respectively.This study proposes a top-down methodology that provides a transparent,reproducible,and empirical framework for forecasting carbon emission pathways,thereby offering a scientific basis for assessing countries that have not yet reached their emissions peak.
文摘Missing data presents a crucial challenge in data analysis,especially in high-dimensional datasets,where missing data often leads to biased conclusions and degraded model performance.In this study,we present a novel autoencoder-based imputation framework that integrates a composite loss function to enhance robustness and precision.The proposed loss combines(i)a guided,masked mean squared error focusing on missing entries;(ii)a noise-aware regularization term to improve resilience against data corruption;and(iii)a variance penalty to encourage expressive yet stable reconstructions.We evaluate the proposed model across four missingness mechanisms,such as Missing Completely at Random,Missing at Random,Missing Not at Random,and Missing Not at Random with quantile censorship,under systematically varied feature counts,sample sizes,and missingness ratios ranging from 5%to 60%.Four publicly available real-world datasets(Stroke Prediction,Pima Indians Diabetes,Cardiovascular Disease,and Framingham Heart Study)were used,and the obtained results show that our proposed model consistently outperforms baseline methods,including traditional and deep learning-based techniques.An ablation study reveals the additive value of each component in the loss function.Additionally,we assessed the downstream utility of imputed data through classification tasks,where datasets imputed by the proposed method yielded the highest receiver operating characteristic area under the curve scores across all scenarios.The model demonstrates strong scalability and robustness,improving performance with larger datasets and higher feature counts.These results underscore the capacity of the proposed method to produce not only numerically accurate but also semantically useful imputations,making it a promising solution for robust data recovery in clinical applications.

文摘Lightweight nodes are crucial for blockchain scalability,but verifying the availability of complete block data puts significant strain on bandwidth and latency.Existing data availability sampling(DAS)schemes either require trusted setups or suffer from high communication overhead and low verification efficiency.This paper presents ISTIRDA,a DAS scheme that lets light clients certify availability by sampling small random codeword symbols.Built on ISTIR,an improved Reed–Solomon interactive oracle proof of proximity,ISTIRDA combines adaptive folding with dynamic code rate adjustment to preserve soundness while lowering communication.This paper formalizes opening consistency and prove security with bounded error in the random oracle model,giving polylogarithmic verifier queries and no trusted setup.In a prototype compared with FRIDA under equal soundness,ISTIRDA reduces communication by 40.65%to 80%.For data larger than 16 MB,ISTIRDA verifies faster and the advantage widens;at 128 MB,proofs are about 60%smaller and verification time is roughly 25%shorter,while prover overhead remains modest.In peer-to-peer emulation under injected latency and loss,ISTIRDA reaches confidence more quickly and is less sensitive to packet loss and load.These results indicate that ISTIRDA is a scalable and provably secure DAS scheme suitable for high-throughput,large-block public blockchains,substantially easing bandwidth and latency pressure on lightweight nodes.
文摘With the advent of the big data era,modern statistics has enjoyed unprecedented development opportunities and also faced numerous new challenges.Traditional statistical computing methods are often limited by issues such as computer memory capacity and distributed storage of data across different locations,and are unable to directly apply to large-scale data sets.Therefore,in the context of big data,designing efficient and theoretically guaranteed statistical learning and inference algorithms has become a key issue that the current field of statistics urgently needs to address.In this paper,the application status of statistical analysis methods in the big data environment was systematically reviewed,and its future development directions were analyzed to provide reference and support for the further development of theory and methods of the statistical analysis of big data.
文摘With the accelerating aging process of China’s population,the demand for community elderly care services has shown diversified and personalized characteristics.However,problems such as insufficient total care service resources,uneven distribution,and prominent supply-demand contradictions have seriously affected service quality.Big data technology,with core advantages including data collection,analysis and mining,and accurate prediction,provides a new solution for the allocation of community elderly care service resources.This paper systematically studies the application value of big data technology in the allocation of community elderly care service resources from three aspects:resource allocation efficiency,service accuracy,and management intelligence.Combined with practical needs,it proposes optimal allocation strategies such as building a big data analysis platform and accurately grasping the elderly’s care needs,striving to provide operable path references for the construction of community elderly care service systems,promoting the early realization of the elderly care service goal of“adequate support and proper care for the elderly”,and boosting the high-quality development of China’s elderly care service industry.

文摘Existing load forecasting methods typically assume that recent load data are available for prediction.This is not in conformity with reality since there is a time gap between the flow date(when power is consumed)and when measurement values are obtained.To this end,this letter proposes an online learning-based probabilistic load forecasting method considering the impact of the data gap.Specifically,an adaptive ensemble backpropagation-enabled online quantile regression algorithm is developed to optimize the parameters of the attention network recursively using the newly obtained load observations.To further improve the reliability and sharpness of prediction intervals under significant data gaps,we introduce an online interval calibration technique.The proposed online learning method allows us to adaptively capture the dynamic changes in load patterns and alleviate the information lags caused by data gaps.Comparative tests utilizing real-world datasets reveal the superiority of the proposed method.

文摘The authors consider the issue of hypothesis testing in varying-coefficient regression models with high-dimensional data.Utilizing kernel smoothing techniques,the authors propose a locally concerned U-statistic method to assess the overall significance of the coefficients.The authors establish that the proposed test is asymptotically normal under both the null hypothesis and local alternatives.Based on the locally concerned U-statistic,the authors further develop a globally concerned U-statistic to test whether the coefficient function is zero.A stochastic perturbation method is employed to approximate the distribution of the globally concerned test statistic.Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate the validity of the proposed test in finite samples.

文摘Multivariate anomaly detection plays a critical role in maintaining the stable operation of information systems.However,in existing research,multivariate data are often influenced by various factors during the data collection process,resulting in temporal misalignment or displacement.Due to these factors,the node representations carry substantial noise,which reduces the adaptability of the multivariate coupled network structure and subsequently degrades anomaly detection performance.Accordingly,this study proposes a novel multivariate anomaly detection model grounded in graph structure learning.Firstly,a recommendation strategy is employed to identify strongly coupled variable pairs,which are then used to construct a recommendation-driven multivariate coupling network.Secondly,a multi-channel graph encoding layer is used to dynamically optimize the structural properties of the multivariate coupling network,while a multi-head attention mechanism enhances the spatial characteristics of the multivariate data.Finally,unsupervised anomaly detection is conducted using a dynamic threshold selection algorithm.Experimental results demonstrate that effectively integrating the structural and spatial features of multivariate data significantly mitigates anomalies caused by temporal dependency misalignment.
