The river sediments contained mostly sand （ 60%）. The fraction of clay was 3%. Total nitrogen （TN） and total phosphorus （TP） concentrations ranged from 729 to 1922 mg/kg and from 692 to 1388 mg/kg, respectively. Nutrient concentrations within the sediments usually decreased with increasing depth. The TN and TP concentrations within the fine sand were higher than for that within silt. Sediment phosphorus fractions were between 2.99% and 3.37% Ex-P （exchangeable phosphorus）, 7.89% and 13.71% Fe/Al-P （Fe, Al oxides bound phosphorus）, 61.32% and 70.14% Ca-P （calcium-bound phosphorus）, and 17.03% and 22.04% Org-P （organic phosphorus）. Nitrogen and phosphorus release from sediment could lead to the presence of 21.02 mg N/L and 3.10 mg P/L within the water column. A river restoration project should address the sediment nutrient stock.展开更多

Traditional intrusion detection methods face difficulty in processing high-speed network data and cannot detect currently unknown attacks. Therefore, this paper proposes a network attack detection method combining a flow calculation and deep learning. The method consists of two parts: a real-time detection algorithm based on flow calculations and frequent patterns and a classification algorithm based on the deep belief network and support vector machine(DBN-SVM). Sliding window(SW) stream data processing enables real-time detection, and the DBN-SVM algorithm can improve classification accuracy. Finally, to verify the proposed method, a system is implemented.Based on the CICIDS2017 open source data set, a series of comparative experiments are conducted. The method's real-time detection efficiency is higher than that of traditional machine learning algorithms. The attack classification accuracy is 0.7 percentage points higher than that of a DBN, which is 2 percentage points higher than that of the integrated algorithm boosting and bagging methods. Hence, it is suitable for the real-time detection of high-speed network intrusions.展开更多

This change in the active region leads to a significant shift in photolumineseence （PL） and electroluminescence （EL） emissions to a longer wavelength compared with the conventional QW based light-emitting diodes. More importantly, an improvement against efficiency droop and an enhancement in light output power at the high-current injection are observed in the modified light-emitting diode structures. The role of the inserted layer in these improvements is investigated by simulation in detail, which shows that the creation of more sublevels in the valence band and the increase of hole concentration inside QWs are the main reasons for these improvements.展开更多

The objective of developing a robust watermarking technique is to incorporate the maximum possible robustness without compromising with the transparency. Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) using Firefly Algorithm provides this objective of an optimal robust watermarking technique. Multiple scaling factors are used to embed the watermark image into the host by multiplying these scaling factors with the Singular Values (SV) of the host audio. Firefly Algorithm is used to optimise the modified host audio to achieve the highest possible robustness and transparency. This approach can significantly increase the quality of watermarked audio and provide more robustness to the embedded watermark against various attacks such as noise, resampling, filtering attacks etc.展开更多

文摘Optimizing the performance of composite structures is a real-world application with significant benefits.In this paper,a high-fidelity finite element method(FEM)is combined with the iterative improvement capability of metaheuristic optimization algorithms to obtain optimized composite plates.The FEM module comprises of ninenode isoparametric plate bending element in conjunction with the first-order shear deformation theory(FSDT).A recently proposed memetic version of particle swarm optimization called RPSOLC is modified in the current research to carry out multi-objective Pareto optimization.The performance of the MO-RPSOLC is found to be comparable with the NSGA-III.This work successfully highlights the use of FEM-MO-RPSOLC in obtaining highfidelity Pareto solutions considering simultaneous maximization of the fundamental frequency and frequency separation in laminated composites by optimizing the stacking sequence.
文摘Data offloading at the network with less time and reduced energy con-sumption are highly important for every technology.Smart applications process the data very quickly with less power consumption.As technology grows towards 5G communication architecture,identifying a solution for QoS in 5G through energy-efficient computing is important.In this proposed model,we perform data offloading at 5G using the fuzzification concept.Mobile IoT devices create tasks in the network and are offloaded in the cloud or mobile edge nodes based on energy consumption.Two base stations,small(SB)and macro(MB)stations,are initialized and thefirst tasks randomly computed.Then,the tasks are pro-cessed using a fuzzification algorithm to select SB or MB in the central server.The optimization is performed using a grasshopper algorithm for improving the QoS of the 5G network.The result is compared with existing algorithms and indi-cates that the proposed system improves the performance of the system with a cost of 44.64 J for computing 250 benchmark tasks.
文摘The Mobile Ad-hoc Network(MANET)is a dynamic topology that provides a variety of executions in various disciplines.The most sticky topic in organizationalfields was MANET protection.MANET is helpless against various threats that affect its usability and accessibility.The dark opening assault is considered one of the most far-reaching dynamic assaults that deteriorate the organi-zation's execution and reliability by dropping all approaching packages via the noxious node.The Dark Opening Node aims to deceive any node in the company that wishes to connect to another node by pretending to get the most delicate ability to support the target node.Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector(AODV)is a responsive steering convention with no corporate techniques to locate and destroy the dark opening center.We improved AODV by incorporating a novel compact method for detecting and isolating lonely and collaborative black-hole threats that utilize clocks and baits.The recommended method allows MANET nodes to discover and segregate black-hole network nodes over dynamic changes in the network topology.We implement the suggested method's performance with the help of Network Simulator(NS)-3 simulation models.Furthermore,the proposed approach comes exceptionally near to the original AODV,absent black holes in terms of bandwidth,end-to-end latency,error rate,and delivery ratio.
文摘Major fields such as military applications,medical fields,weather forecasting,and environmental applications use wireless sensor networks for major computing processes.Sensors play a vital role in emerging technologies of the 20th century.Localization of sensors in needed locations is a very serious problem.The environment is home to every living being in the world.The growth of industries after the industrial revolution increased pollution across the environment.Owing to recent uncontrolled growth and development,sensors to measure pollution levels across industries and surroundings are needed.An interesting and challenging task is choosing the place to fit the sensors.Many meta-heuristic techniques have been introduced in node localization.Swarm intelligent algorithms have proven their efficiency in many studies on localization problems.In this article,we introduce an industrial-centric approach to solve the problem of node localization in the sensor network.First,our work aims at selecting industrial areas in the sensed location.We use random forest regression methodology to select the polluted area.Then,the elephant herding algorithm is used in sensor node localization.These two algorithms are combined to produce the best standard result in localizing the sensor nodes.To check the proposed performance,experiments are conducted with data from the KDD Cup 2018,which contain the name of 35 stations with concentrations of air pollutants such as PM,SO_(2),CO,NO_(2),and O_(3).These data are normalized and tested with algorithms.The results are comparatively analyzed with other swarm intelligence algorithms such as the elephant herding algorithm,particle swarm optimization,and machine learning algorithms such as decision tree regression and multi-layer perceptron.Results can indicate our proposed algorithm can suggest more meaningful locations for localizing the sensors in the topology.Our proposed method achieves a lower root mean square value with 0.06 to 0.08 for localizing with Stations 1 to 5.

文摘Introducing a thin InGaN interlayer with a relatively lower indium content between the quantum well （QW） and barrier results in a step-like InxGa1-xN/GaN potential barrier on one side of the QW. This change in the active region leads to a significant shift in photolumineseence （PL） and electroluminescence （EL） emissions to a longer wavelength compared with the conventional QW based light-emitting diodes. More importantly, an improvement against efficiency droop and an enhancement in light output power at the high-current injection are observed in the modified light-emitting diode structures. The role of the inserted layer in these improvements is investigated by simulation in detail, which shows that the creation of more sublevels in the valence band and the increase of hole concentration inside QWs are the main reasons for these improvements.
文摘Digital Watermarking is a technology, to facilitate the authentication, copyright protection and Security of digital media. The objective of developing a robust watermarking technique is to incorporate the maximum possible robustness without compromising with the transparency. Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) using Firefly Algorithm provides this objective of an optimal robust watermarking technique. Multiple scaling factors are used to embed the watermark image into the host by multiplying these scaling factors with the Singular Values (SV) of the host audio. Firefly Algorithm is used to optimise the modified host audio to achieve the highest possible robustness and transparency. This approach can significantly increase the quality of watermarked audio and provide more robustness to the embedded watermark against various attacks such as noise, resampling, filtering attacks etc.

文摘Wireless Sensor Networks(WSNs)are large-scale and high-density networks that typically have coverage area overlap.In addition,a random deployment of sensor nodes cannot fully guarantee coverage of the sensing area,which leads to coverage holes in WSNs.Thus,coverage control plays an important role in WSNs.To alleviate unnecessary energy wastage and improve network performance,we consider both energy efficiency and coverage rate for WSNs.In this paper,we present a novel coverage control algorithm based on Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO).Firstly,the sensor nodes are randomly deployed in a target area and remain static after deployment.Then,the whole network is partitioned into grids,and we calculate each grid’s coverage rate and energy consumption.Finally,each sensor nodes’sensing radius is adjusted according to the coverage rate and energy consumption of each grid.Simulation results show that our algorithm can effectively improve coverage rate and reduce energy consumption.
