Expansion Testing using Quantum Fast-Forwarding and Seed Sets

Expansion testing aims to decide whether an $n$-node graph has expansion at least $\Phi$, or is far from any such graph. We propose a quantum expansion tester with complexity $\widetilde{O}(n^{1/3}\Phi^{-1})$. This accelerates the $\widetilde{O}(n^{1/2}\Phi^{-2})$ classical tester by Goldreich and Ron [Algorithmica '02], and combines the $\widetilde{O}(n^{1/3}\Phi^{-2})$ and $\widetilde{O}(n^{1/2}\Phi^{-1})$ quantum speedups by Ambainis, Childs and Liu [RANDOM '11] and Apers and Sarlette [QIC '19], respectively. The latter approach builds on a quantum fast-forwarding scheme, which we improve upon by initially growing a seed set in the graph. To grow this seed set we use a so-called evolving set process from the graph clustering literature, which allows to grow an appropriately local seed set.

Writing Style: Analyzing How the Students Express Their Ideas in Descriptive Paragraph

This research was done to analyze how the students’ writing styles are in their descriptive paragraph in terms of sentence structure, word choice, degree of details and descriptions, and degree of formality. This is a descriptive qualitative approach with content analysis method. The sample of this study was 26 of fifth semester students of English Education Program UIN TS Jambi academic year 2018/2019. Technique of collecting the data was by documenting students’ descriptive paragraph writing and doing semi structure interview. The result finding showed that the students have different style of writing. In terms of sentence structure, some students used many simple sentences in their writing that make their paragraphs are monotonous and boring to read; while a few students used a mixture of these sentence types that make their paragraphs are interested to read and seemed attractive. In terms of word choice, the students’ paragraphs mostly used sensory details and a figurative language of simile in describing the object. While in degree of details and description, in general all of students’ paragraphs are specific and descriptive by using prepositional phrases and adding many adjectives to describe the characteristics of the object. In addition, related to degree of formality, in general students’ descriptive paragraphs are casual.
Detecting Domain Generation Algorithms Based on Cascade Foresets

In a botnet, the attacker often uses domain fluxing to hide communication channel. Domain Generation Algorithm (DGA) is a kind of technique which is usually utilized by domain fluxing. Each bot uses a DGA to generate plenty of domain names and one of them will be registered by the botmaster as the domain name mapping to the C&C server. The security personnel will be in trouble with a large number of DGA domain names. In this paper, we propose a DGA detection approach called Minos. This approach detects DGA-generated domain names by analyzing the word-formation of domain names with the cascaded forest algorithm. The key insight of Minos is that domain names are made up of syllables or acronyms for easy reading, and n-grams can generally represent both of them. Our experimental results show that Minos can accurately identify domain names generated by DGAs with a precision of 93.8% and a recall rate of 93.5%.

Development of Learning Media "Solar System" Multiplayer Virtual Reality Using Samsung Gear VR

The lack of student participation in the learning process results in the decrease of their learning interest and comprehension. In addition, in the interactive learning process, two-way communication takes place between instructors and learners. Teachers deliver learning material and learners provide responses to the learning material they receive. This can be realized by using a Multiplayer Virtual Reality to display the visualization of learning material. Virtual reality can be used to increase the effectiveness of delivering material with an immersive environment so students can develop intuition to perceive the abstract knowledge that is difficult for teachers to describe. The multiplayer system allows teacher-student interaction, which supports the ongoing learning activities in the virtual world. The test results show the mechanism of object interaction in a virtual environment is easy to use with 50% of respondents agreeing and 50% of respondents saying the interaction feels natural. Furthermore, solar system multiplayer virtual reality can be an interesting learning media with 50% of respondents strongly agree and this learning media is effective to be used in the delivery of solar and eclipse material in sixth-grade of elementary school with 67% of respondents expressing their agreement strongly.
