MemShield: GPU-assisted software memory encryption

Cryptographic algorithm implementations are vulnerable to Cold Boot attacks, which consist in exploiting the persistence of RAM cells across reboots or power down cycles to read the memory contents and recover precious sensitive data. The principal defensive weapon against Cold Boot attacks is memory encryption. In this work we propose MemShield, a memory encryption framework for user space applications that exploits a GPU to safely store the master key and perform the encryption/decryption operations. We developed a prototype that is completely transparent to existing applications and does not require changes to the OS kernel. We discuss the design, the related works, the implementation, the security analysis, and the performances of MemShield.

Intelligent Deformation Control Algorithms for Mechanical Metal Parts Based on Internet of Things

Abstract In order to solve the problem of serious damage during the operation of mechanical metal parts, the intelligent control algorithm of deformation of mechanical metal parts is studied based on the Internet of Things technology. Firstly, the characteristic parameters of deformation of metal parts are collected by the fuzzy algorithm, and the extreme value of damage degree of parts is evaluated and calculated by the artificial ant colony algorithm. According to the calculation results, the deviation parameters of the moving trajectory of the mechanical metal parts are corrected to alleviate the damage of the metal parts, so as to realize the intelligent control algorithm for the deformation of the mechanical metal parts. Finally, the experiment proves that the intelligent deformation control algorithm based on the Internet of Things has better practical value than the traditional algorithm.
Self-Learning with Rectification Strategy for Human Parsing

In this paper, we solve the sample shortage problem in the human parsing task. We begin with the self-learning strategy, which generates pseudo-labels for unlabeled data to retrain the model. However, directly using noisy pseudo-labels will cause error amplification and accumulation. Considering the topology structure of human body, we propose a trainable graph reasoning method that establishes internal structural connections between graph nodes to correct two typical errors in the pseudo-labels, i.e., the global structural error and the local consistency error. For the global error, we first transform category-wise features into a high-level graph model with coarse-grained structural information, and then decouple the high-level graph to reconstruct the category features. The reconstructed features have a stronger ability to represent the topology structure of the human body. Enlarging the receptive field of features can effectively reducing the local error. We first project feature pixels into a local graph model to capture pixel-wise relations in a hierarchical graph manner, then reverse the relation information back to the pixels. With the global structural and local consistency modules, these errors are rectified and confident pseudo-labels are generated for retraining. Extensive experiments on the LIP and the ATR datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our global and local rectification modules. Our method outperforms other state-of-the-art methods in supervised human parsing tasks.
Motion Control of Triple Links Inverted Pendulum on Two-Wheeled System Using Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Control Base on Particle Swarm Optimization

This paper presents a motion control of a triple link inverted pendulum on two-wheeled system, through Interval Type-2 Fuzzy logic Control based Particle Swarm Optimization. Despite this model's heightened non-linearity and complexity for being a triple link system, it has enabled additional degree of freedom for having a two-wheeled mechanism. The model was developed in SimWise 4D to maintain its complex features, while allowing observations to the system's movements. The developed system was then integrated with Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Control, as designed in Matlab/Simulink. Specifically, Particle Swarm Optimization was applied to obtain the optimal values for input/output gain and parameters of the Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic Control, towards enhancing the system's performance. Results have shown that the proposed controller was able to perform forward and backward motions control to the system in an upright position. The system is able to perform motion task with recorded system velocity of 0.04m/s and 0.02m/s for forward and backward motions, respectively. The controller was then evaluated based on its velocity and angular position or in stable manner. This system is envisaged to be very vital in the development of mobile robots with extended functionality.

Improved Parallel Genetic Algorithm Based on Resetting Strategy and Hash Table

Abstract In the process of parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) convergence, the probability of generating repeated individuals in a new generation is gradually increasing, which leads to repetitive computations of fitness values. In order to improve the time-efficiency and quality of solutions, an improved algorithm based on resetting strategy and hash table (RHPGA) is proposed. On the one hand, RHPGA takes advantage of the low time complexity of hash table lookup to reduce fitness values’ calculation of repeated individuals. On the other hand, RHPGA uses a resetting strategy to improve the optimal solution searching ability. By solving a set covering problem, PGA and RHPGA are compared. The experiment proves that RHPGA can almost increase the time-efficiency by 300% and quality of solutions by 15%.
Receiving Media Discourse Translation

The objective of this paper is to highlight how one translation of a media discourse can affect people’s thoughts and attitudes. One media discourse can be translated in different ways carrying different ideologies and messages, serving the translator’s objectives for which the translation receiver constitutes, in most of times, a main target to manipulate. Nowadays, the translation receiver is subject to various studies that are undertaken for the purpose of controlling their behavior and reactions with words, whether to lead or mislead them, emphasizing the power of language considering translation a double-edged weapon when dealt with media field. This study consists in spotting the main influencing factors that are present in one translation, addressing a specific targeted receiver and underlying how they affect them afterwards. We will try to answer some main questions as to what extent translation is able to affect peoples’ attitudes and thoughts. How was it used as an ideology vehicle in media field? How does word have the power for change? Is manipulation through translation ethically condemned or is it allowed when complying with a specific strategy and purposes of the translation’s sending organization? While some researchers relate this action to infidelity to the original, it is seen in this study from another perspective which is manipulation and how words serve this objective powerfully.

Coherent Influence of Educational Process on the Formation of Ethno-Cultural Tolerance of Youth

The article considers the theoretical aspects of the nature and mechanisms of the influence of the media and education on the formation of the individual’s worldview, in particular with regard to ethno-cultural attitudes, identifies the relationship between these social institutions, and analyzes the studies on the ethno-cultural tolerance of citizens of the Russian Federation. The intensification of the integrative interaction of representatives of various ethno-cultural communities, and the tendency to destruct the relations between individual countries are the result not only of the development of economic, political, social and other systems, but also of collisions arising on religious and international grounds, manifestations of aggression, the initiation and conduct of local wars, acts of terrorism, etc. The formation of ethno-cultural tolerance in the youth environment in this case can act as a stabilizing factor, becoming the most effective and cost-effective solution to communication problems of an ethno-cultural nature. Based on the analysis of theoretical aspects, the author proposes to develop a program to increase the ethnic tolerance of students in a multicultural world through the bilateral involvement of individuals. The project is based on the principles of reliability of the information provided, the possibility of intercultural interaction, as well as monitoring and solving related socially significant problems and tasks.
Distributed Data Verification Protocols in Cloud Computing

Recently, storage of huge volume of data into Cloud has become an effective trend in modern day Computing due to its dynamic nature. After storing, users deletes their original copy of the data files. Therefore users, cannot directly control over that data. This lack of control introduces security issues in Cloud data storage, one of the most important security issue is integrity of the remotely stored data. Here, we propose a Distributed Algorithmic approach to address this problem with publicly probabilistic verifiable scheme. Due to heavy workload at the Third Party Auditor side, we distributes the verification task among various SUBTPAs. We uses Sobol Random Sequences to generates the random block numbers that maintains the uniformity property. In addition, our method provides uniformity for each subtasks also. To makes each subtask uniform, we uses some analytical approach. For this uniformity, our protocols verify the integrity of the data very efficiently and quickly. Also, we provides special care about critical data by using Overlap Task Distribution Keys.

Eigen selection in spectral clustering: a theory guided practice

Based on a Gaussian mixture type model , we derive an eigen selection procedure that improves the usual spectral clustering in high-dimensional settings. Concretely, we derive the asymptotic expansion of the spiked eigenvalues under eigenvalue multiplicity and eigenvalue ratio concentration results, giving rise to the first theory-backed eigen selection procedure in spectral clustering. The resulting eigen-selected spectral clustering (ESSC) algorithm enjoys better stability and compares favorably against canonical alternatives. We demonstrate the advantages of ESSC using extensive simulation and multiple real data studies.
