JTF-ARES as a Model of a Persistent, Joint Cyber Task Force
Authors: Donnelly Charlotte , Stolz Marcel
Published: June 2023

Military involvement in cyberspace has traditionally been limited to operations in service of “kinetic,” or physical, missions. Military cyberoperations are therefore usually described using traditional “kinetic” descriptors and rarely articulate cyber-related goals that are independent of kinetic operations. Recently, the concepts of “persistence” and “jointness” have been increasingly used by the U.S. Cyber Command to describe cyberoperations. Persistence describes operations that focus on a target over time (in contrast to the episodic “response” concepts articulated in kinetic warfare). “Jointness” describes working across group or agency lines. This paper will investigate the effectiveness of “persistent” and “joint” task forces in accomplishing cyber-related goals by means of a case study of Joint Task Force – ARES (“JTF-ARES”). JTF-ARES was set up as a task force by the U.S. Cyber Command to disrupt ISIS cyberoperations – a singularly cyber (as opposed to kinetic) goal. By contrasting the approach of JTF-ARES with the existing history of US operations in cyberspace, militaries can apply JTF-ARES’ successful approach to accomplish future cyber-related goals that are independent of kinetic military units. After discussing a brief history of the U.S. Cyber Command and defining the terms “persistence” and “jointness,” the paper discusses JTF-ARES’ successful operation and contributing factors, most notably its organization within the U.S. Cyber Command. Next, it explores a counterfactual organization of JTF-ARES, suggesting that alternative organizational structures would likely have ended in failure and highlighting factors that may have influenced its success. Furthermore, the paper discusses the administrative challenges associated with creating a JTF, which include administration hurdles as well as collaboration and training requirements specific to joint operations. Since JTF-ARES deviates from traditional organizational structures within U.S. Cyber Command, this paper articulates criteria for creating a joint, persistent cyber task force, which militaries may find useful when considering how to implement cyber-specific goals. The first criterion concerns the operations required for the mission – namely, are reconnaissance, offensive, and defensive cyberoperations required? The second criterion asks whether the cyberoperation has a uniquely cyber-oriented end state: for missions with non-kinetic goals, it may be helpful to consider a joint, persistent task force.

Published: June 2023

Intelligent, comprehensive and, above all, secure wireless interconnection is the driving force behind technological progress. To ensure this, the development towards Sixth Generation (6G) Wireless Systems has been launched and is scheduled to be operational by 2030. This data technology of the future turns 6G into the infrastructure of a new generation of mobile, intelligent, and context-sensitive services, available everywhere and featuring high trustworthiness and performance, relying on both, network-side and off-network context sources. In addition, the networks themselves ought to become intelligent and thus more efficient and resource-saving, which requires a high degree of automated utilization of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Building upon the principles of information and communication theory for both the physical (bit)-transmission layer (PHY) and media access, new communication concepts for 6G will be developed providing the foundations for research into new single and multi-user operation, access and core networks. The flip side of this coin of opportunities: Sophisticated technology inevitably leads to additional security vulnerabilities, open access systems and Open-Radio Access Network (O-RAN) approaches imply new attack vectors. The holistic interconnection of everything renders it ever more attractive to attackers to harm systems, and create damage. Furthermore, enhanced computational power along with quantum computers make conventional systems more vulnerable than ever, and the value of the transmitted data increases tremendously: It is not only machine and sensor data, but also very personal and healthcare data transmitted with 6G. Therefore, the aim is to build a resilient and secure 6G system capable of recognizing attacks and uncertainties, flexibly absorbing them, recovering in a timely and sustainable manner, and compensating for impaired functionality through transformation. This holistic resilience-by-design approach is based, among other things, on technology such as Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) and Post Quantum-Crypto to achieve end-to-end security, Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs) to rely, control and manipulate the wireless transmission channel, Wireless Optical Communication (WOC), Physical Layer Security (PhySec), but also Body Area Networks (BANs), the integration of the human body relying on biometrics and the Tactile Internet (TI). These concepts will be discussed and shed light on in the scope of this work.

Permission-Based Classification of Android Malware Applications Using Random Forest
Authors: Chrysikos Nikolaos , Karampelas Panagiotis , Xylogiannopoulos Konstantinos
Published: June 2023

Android is arguably the most widely used mobile operating system in the world. Due to its widespread use, it has attracted a lot of attention of cybercriminals who attempt to exploit its architecture and outsmart innocent users to install malware applications. The number of such applications is growing every day either by alternating a basic exploitation mechanism or by creating novel mechanisms to exfiltrate users’ data. As a result, there is an increasing need for detection mechanisms that can classify these applications to families based on their characteristics. A significant amount of research has already been devoted to analysing and mitigating this growing problem; however, this situation demands more efficient methods with higher precision. The paper proposes such a framework for analysing and classifying a malicious application to certain families relying on the permissions used. The proposed method involves the pre-processing of the applications to extract their permissions, the tokenization of permissions, the data cleansing and finally the application of the Random Forest Classifier to classify the applications in families. The proposed method is trained and tested with a dataset of 11,159 malicious applications categorized in 33 unique families. The precision, recall and f1-score achieved is 98%. The results of the proposed methodology are promising, since it even works in an unbalanced dataset and in many cases outperform other state-of-the-art approaches.
Functional Architectural Design of a Digital Forensic Readiness Cybercrime Language as a Service
Authors: O Baror Stacey , Adeyemi, I Richard , Venter Hein. S
Published: June 2023

Developing a generic digital forensic solution in a cloud computing platform that can address the functional requirements of digital forensic stakeholders is a complex process. The solution would require a technology-independent architectural design that addresses the challenges of incident threat identification, triggering, incident threat isolation and investigation. Existing approaches are limited to the functionality that treats these four challenges individually without the due diligence to consider their interoperability. This study proposes a context-independent and technology-neutral architecture to address these issues by developing a digital forensic readiness (DFR) based on a human language communication interaction (HLI) system that could create a cybercrime language as a service (DFClaaS). The functional architectural design of the proposed DFR HLI DFClaaS system comprises microservices, layered and event/component-based architectural patterns on top of cloud architectural patterns. The DFR HLI DFClaaS system integrates flexibility and other quality requirements to separate concerns while accommodating rigid requirements like security and reliability. The developed architecture is essential for any human-centred digital forensic solution. Therefore, integrating the developed architecture presents a reliable baseline for the digital forensic community.
The UN Global Digital Compact (GDC), Achieving a trusted, free, open, and Secure Internet: Trust-building
Authors: Wylde Allison
Published: June 2023

A United Nations’ (UN) public consultation, underway, is reviewing requirements for the Global Digital Compact (GDC) to advance UN goals for an ‘open, free, and secure digital future for all’ (UN, GDC, 2022). Achieving the goals relies on proposed principles, including: connecting everyone; avoiding fragmentation; protecting data; applying human rights; accountability for discrimination and misleading content; regulation of artificial intelligence; digital commons as a public good; and ‘other’ areas. The purpose of this paper is to present an argument that trust must be included as a central ‘other’ principle. Although successful achievement of the GDC goals is contingent on building trust in each principle, a method for trust-building is not provided. Through leveraging well-established organization and conflict management trust-building literature the contribution of this paper presents a fresh conceptual framework, allowing trust and trust-building in the goals to be operationalized and assessed. In, addressing the research gap as to how build trust in the GDC goals as they are implemented, the novel trust-building process as presented helps policymakers, practitioners, and academics better address potential risks to the future internet, such as, increased; state isolation, sovereignty, and internet fragmentation. Limitations and calls for further research highlight that understanding state-level trust-building in policy is not yet mature. Further, scholars needs to better categorize the processes, dynamics and norms involved in state-level trust-building, helping to counter future internet challenges.

The effects of phytase and tannase enzyme treatment of sorghum-based broiler diets on ileal villi characteristics were evaluated in Cobb 500 broilers. A total of three sorghum levels, 0, 50, and 100%, with 4 enzyme levels; 0, 5% phytase, 5% tannase and 5% phytase+tannase combination were used to develop 12 different dietary treatments. Three hundred and sixty broilers were randomly allocated to the 12 dietary treatments in a completely randomized design experiment. On day 42, two birds from each replicate were randomly selected and slaughtered for ileal villi morphometry analyses. A 2cm tissue sample of the ileum was cut and prepared for histological analyses. Villus height and width, muscularis externa thickness, and crypt depth were measured on a light microscope using a calibrated eyepiece graticule. The total villi surface area was calculated, which indicates the digestive and absorptive capacity of the ileum. The General Linear Models (GLM) procedure of the Statistical Analysis System ver 9.4 (SAS Institute Inc., 2011) was used to analyse the data. All tests were performed at p < 0.05 significance. Villus height, width, and muscularis externa thickness significantly increased with increasing levels of sorghum in the diet (p<0.001). Birds fed complete sorghum diets supplemented with phytase enzyme had the longest villi (p<0.001). The 0% and 100% sorghum levels exhibited comparable crypt depth. Treatment significantly affected the apparent villi surface area (p<0.0001). The apparent villi surface area increased with increasing sorghum inclusion. Birds fed a complete sorghum diet supplemented with phytase had the highest villi surface area (15.48±0.241 mm). It can be concluded that phytase and tannase can be added to complete sorghum broiler diets without compromising ileal villi integrity. Hence, we recommend the addition of phytase and tannase in sorghum-based broiler diets to counteract the effects of sorghum antinutrients.
The Role Played by Zen “Kong” in Japanese Aesthetics
Authors: YI Yuxi
Published: June 2023

Japanese Zen Buddhism has led the way for Japanese aesthetics and has continued to bring this aesthetic to the public, most notably in the form of ukiyo-e. Zen Buddhism is a branch of Buddhism with the core principle of "no thought, no appearance, no dwelling," and "Katsu" as its practice from Linji School. As Zen became integrated into Japanese life, meditation was likewise manifested in social life, most notably in the Edo period. As a declining, last feudal period in Japanese history, the Edo Shogunate was flawed in terms of notification. The samurai class, which was attached to the Shogunate, was fundamentally lacking in subject matter, and the Tokugawa family gave them the idea of Bushido but not its inner pillar. Japanese merchants, who had no status, spent their money recklessly but gained confusion and emptiness. Bijinga-e, who specializes in painting Japanese geisha in Ukiyo-e, shows all the meanings of "Kong" through the composition, white space, and the form of people in the painting. Most impressionists in the nineteenth century expressed their emotions and imitated East Asian style artworks, and only "had the form but not the spirit." This paper thus concludes that the status of "Kong" in Japanese Zen aesthetics is like a butterfly in an invisible net, out of control and out of sight.

Published: June 2023

Circulatory failure, which develops in the final stages of the course of the most heart diseases, is a link in the progressive process. This process is accompanied by a significant decrease in the quality of life, as well as high disability and mortality.

Heart transplantation increases the survival of patients with chronic heart failure, increases tolerance to physical exertion, improves the quality of life of patients and allows most of them to return to vigorous activity.

Aim. The work is devoted to the analysis of the results of orthotopic heart transplantation in patients with a progressive course of chronic heart failure that cannot be treated conservatively.

Materials and methods. We analyzed the clinical course of heart transplants in 55 patients. There were 46 (83.6 %) men and 9 (16.4 %) women among the recipients. The average age was 46.0 ± 10.0 years.

Results. The result of the conducted retrospective study revealed that in-hospital (early) and one-year (longterm) survival among patients in our study was 92.7 % and 81.8 %, respectively.

Conclusions. Heart transplantation is the most effective method of treatment for terminal heart failure. The quality of life of heart transplant patients improves significantly after surgery and is the main factor in the development of heart transplantation nowadays.

The main causes of death were acute graft dysfunction, rejection reactions, and coronary heart disease of the transplanted heart. Problems related to cardiac graft dysfunction and rejection in the early and long-term period still need to be definitively resolved.
Pathogenetic characteristics of the hormonal profile in rats subjected to restraint stress of different duration
Authors: Romanova K. B. , Hancheva O. V. , Kolesnyk Yu. M.
Published: June 2023

The aim of the work is to ascertain the character of changes in the hormonal profile (concentrations of corticosterone, insulin, and adrenocorticotropic hormone) in conjunction with metabolic alterations and elevated blood pressure, which are induced in rats by restraint stress at 6th, 15th and 21st weeks of environmental space restriction.

Materials and methods. A total of 55 normotensive male Wistar rats, aged 6–10 months, were assigned into 4 experimental groups (1 – intact control (10 rats); 2, 3 and 4 (15 rats each exposed to restricted space allowance)). All the animals were subjected to blood pressure (BP), blood glucose level and body weight measurements twice: at the stage of forming groups and at the 6th, 15th and 21st weeks. Plasma hormone concentrations (insulin, corticosterone, and ACTH) were examined by the immunoenzymatic method using commercial kits (Monobind, USA).

Results. The body weight of the animals was significantly reduced by 20.72 % after 6 weeks of space allowance restriction, it was restored to baselines by the 15th week and exceeded control values by 26.1 % at the 21st week. BP levels showed an increasing trend, a dynamic increase in systolic pressure by 7 %, 17 % and 26 % was detected, respectively, as well as diastolic from the 15th week to the 21st week by 21.4 % and 37.0 %, respectively. Glucose concentration was within the euglycemic range. Changes in the hormonal profile showed an increase in the concentration of ACTH by more than 50 % and a decrease in insulin – by 34 % at the 6th week with a subsequent twofold decrease in the insulin concentration (at week 15) and a further more than twofold increase in ACTH at the 21st week. As for changes in the concentration of corticosterone, a peak increase of 3.77 times was noticed at the 15th week, followed by a decrease and restoration to the normative values by the 21st week.

Conclusions. Even minor and unremarkable continuously acting stressors, which cannot be coped, become important triggers for hormonal profile and carbohydrate metabolism alterations as well as for a persistent increase in blood pressure, which manifest first by hypoinsulinemia, an increase in the level of ACTH, and a constant concentration of corticosterone. Long-term stress exposure contributes to a transient “peak” increase in the corticosterone level, a significant increase in insulin and a sustained increase in ACTH. Multidirectional changes in the levels of the studied hormones occur amidst a gradual increase in blood pressure and a stable increase in the level of glycemia.

Published: June 2023

Aim. The work aimed to study the nature of changes in endocrine signals (insulin and cortisol) and bioactive molecules that control inflammation and activation of process synthesis (interleukin-2 (IL-2), interleukin-8 (IL-8), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), amino-terminal propeptide of type III procollagen (PIIINP)), at the initial stage of the formation of chronic wounds in the experiment.

Materials and methods. The study was conducted in 2 groups of Wistar rats. The first group is represented by intact animals. Animals of the second group were modeled chronic wounds. On the 3rd day of the experiment, all animals were euthanized. The concentration of studied bioactive molecules was measured in blood serum by enzyme immunoassay. Selected areas of the wound were subjected to histological examination.

Results. The levels of cortisol, insulin, VEGF, IL-2, and PIIINP in animals with chronic wounds at the stage of inflammation were significantly higher compared to intact animals. A tendency towards a decrease in the expression of IL-8 was shown. Relationships between the levels of bioactive molecules in animals of different groups were studied. According to the results of studies a correlation between the concentrations of IL-8 and cortisol in rats of the intact group was established. In the group of rats on the 3rd day after wound induction, a positive correlation was noted between the levels of IL-8 and IL-2. Wound defects healed under the scab. Microscopic analysis showed that the histoarchitectonics of tissues in the area of damage on the 3rd day corresponded to the classic manifestations of the process of healing wounds at this stage. The main part of the wound was filled with fibrin strands with a predominantly inflammatory cellular component. In some areas, signs of growth and development of young granulation tissue were noted. In the marginal sections, signs of re-epithelialization of the wound defect were observed.

Conclusions. Even though in our study, the histoarchitectonics of tissues in the area of damage corresponded to the classical manifestations of the wound healing process at the stage of inflammation, the obtained changes and the relationship between endocrine and immune factors may be harbingers of the formation of the chronic wound in the future.

Feature Selection From MagFace Face Recognition Model With Optimization Algorithms
Authors: OZDEMIR Mehmet Fatih , HANBAY Davut
Published: June 2023

In recent years, many studies have been carried out in the field of artificial intelligence in the literature with the development of equipment. Face recognition algorithms have an important place among these developments. Among the face recognition algorithms, the most successful ones are usually deep learning approaches. Models such as SphereFace, CosFace, ArcFace, and MagFace are important deep learning models in the literature. Despite their success, deep learning models are often computationally costly. Therefore, advanced methods are needed to reduce the computational load for these models. One of the most valid methods for this is to choose the most valuable one among embedding features for face recognition. Thus, cost can be reduced, and accuracy values can be increased even more. In this study, the most valuable of the 512 embedded features in the MagFace model was tried to be obtained by using PSO, GA, SCA, and DE optimization algorithms. As a result, accuracy values of 99.83%, 98.57%, and 98.65% were reached for 193, 252, and 280 features selected in the LFW, CFP, and AGEDB datasets, respectively.

Published: June 2023

Bu çalışmada, 2012-2022 yılları arasında Karadeniz’deki kolluk kuvvetleri tarafından kayda girilmiş boğulma olaylarının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Karadeniz bölgesindeki 12 ilde (Artvin, Bartın, Düzce, Giresun, Kastamonu, Ordu, Rize, Sakarya, Sinop, Trabzon, Zonguldak) meydana gelen boğulma olayları incelenmiştir. Son 10 yılda toplam 554 olayda 648 kişi sahilden denize girerek boğulma olayına karışmış, bunlardan 304’ü hayatını yitirmiştir. Bu olaylarda tek bir kişi boğulma olaylarına karışabileceği gibi, birçok kişi de boğulma olaylarına karışarak toplu can kayıplarına neden olabilir. Boğulma olaylarında erkeklerin %81’i olaya karışmakta ve %50’si olay sırasında yaşamını yitirmiştir. Kadınlar erkeklere oranla daha az boğulma oranına sahiptir. Boğulma olaylarının yaz aylarında doruğa ulaştığı, özellikle 18 yaş altındaki genç bireylerde boğulma olaylarının çokça rastlandığı sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır. Bu bağlamda Karadeniz kıyılarında özellikle yaz aylarında genç bireylere yönelik, çeken (rip) akıntıları ve boğulma olayları ile ilgili farkındalık çalışmalarının yapılması ve süreci izlemek adına benzer belirli dönemsel araştırmaların yürütülmesi, çeken akıntılara yönelik risk durumunu içeren mobil uygulamaların geliştirilmesi önerilmektedir.

Published: June 2023

الأهداف: تهدف الدراسة إلى توضيح مفهوم الاختصاص عند الشافعية، وبيان كيفية انتقاله من شخص لآخر بما يسمى برفع اليد الذي يعتبر بديلا وحلا شرعيا لحصول الإنسان على بعض ما لا يدخل في ملكه بالبيع والشراء لأسباب شرعية تمنع من ذلك، كما تهدف الدراسة لذكر بعض التطبيقات المعاصرة على ذلك.
المنهجية: اتبعت الدراسة المنهج الوصفي في تعريف المصطلحات الشرعية، والمنهج الاستقرائي والنقلي من خلال تتبع ونقل أقوال الفقهاء في المذهب الشافعي في بيان مفهوم الاختصاص، وتوضيح كيفية انتقاله وتبادله بين الأشخاص، وأثره على العقود والمعاملات، كما تم استخدام المنهج التحليلي لبيان علل التفريق بين أنواعه عند الشافعية، وذكر بعض التطبيقات المعاصرة للاختصاص.
النتائج: توصلت الدراسة إلى أن للاختصاص معنى فقهي خاص عند الشافعية وهو: ما يختص مستحقه الانتفاع به ولا يملك أحد مزاحمته فيه. وله تقسيمات باعتبارات مختلفة: فباعتبار المحل، منها ما يكون محله الأعيان وأخرى محله المنافع، وباعتبار إمكانية تملُّكه وحدود الانتفاع به والتصرف فيه، فمنه ما يدخل في ملك الإنسان بشروط معينة، ومنه ما لا يدخل في ملكه ولكن ينتفع به ويتصرف فيه باستقلال دون مزاحمة أحد، ومنه ما لا يدخل في ملِكه ولا يملك التصرف فيه، ولكن له الانتفاع به فقط.
الخلاصة: إن للاختصاص معنى خاص عند الشافعية، ولا يمكن شرعا تداوله بين الناس بالبيع والشراء؛ بل يتم تداوله بينهم بما يشبه البيع، ويسمى (برفع اليد)، وثمرة ذلك أن الاختصاص لا تدخله خيارات البيع المعروفة، كما أنه لو أوصى بجميع الاختصاص نفذت الوصية بجميع الاختصاص لا كالملك، فإن الملك تنفذ الوصية فيه إلى حد ثلث التركة فقط

Pandemi COVID-19 ini telah membuka mata publik khususnya pendidikan tinggi untuk bekerja keras, berpikir kreatif dan adaptif dengan mengubah model kegiatan belajar mengajar yang semula berbasis konvensional menjadi pembelajaran berbasis e-learning. Pandemi COVID-19 ini adalah momentum bagi dunia pendidikan untuk membuat terobosan baru, keluar dari paradigma normatif dunia nyata ke dunia maya dengan memanfaatkan teknologi dalam setiap kegiatan proses belajar mengajar (KBM) dan pelayanan non-akademik lainnya. E-learning berbasis virtual classroom menjadi alternatif pemanfaatan teknologi pada proses pembelajaran yang menggantikan pembelajaran konvensional di kelas. Hampir semua kegiatan yang biasa dilakukan di kelas konvensional berbasis pengetahuan (kognitif) dapat dipenuhi oleh kelas virtual ini, dimulai dari penyampaian materi, pemberian tugas, penilaian hingga tatap muka yang menggunakan video conference. Namun demikian, ada yang tidak bisa dipenuhi oleh sebuah alat teknologi, yaitu hubungan emosional antara dosen dan mahasiswa yang selama ini tetap dipertahankan, apalagi dapat mengembangkan pola pendidikan yang berbasis karakter yang penilaiannya mengacu pada sikap (apektif).
Studi-studi tentang Al-Qur’an dalam Konteks Keindonesiaan menurut Pandangan Howard Federspiel
Authors: Farida Nur Aini , Makbul M
Published: June 2023

The development of the interpretation of the Qur'an in Indonesia is certainly different from the developments in the Arab world. These differences are mainly due to differences in cultural and linguistic backgrounds. The interpretation of the Qur'an in Indonesia goes through a longer process when compared to that which applies in its place of origin. This study is a library research with historical approach. Howard analyzed one aspect of the scientific tradition of Indonesian Muslims, namely the study of the Qur'an as the main source of Islamic teachings. The Sunni Islamic tradition is important to Indonesian Muslim writers because it consistently draws on the sources of this tradition, namely the Qur'an, the Sunnah of the Prophet, and the works of scholars throughout Islamic history. Models of works on the exegesis of the Qur'an in Indonesia are basically derived from the works of Egyptian writers one hundred years ago.

Directly or indirectly adders are the basic elements in almost all digital circuits, three operand adders are the basic building blocks in LCG (Linear congruential generator) based pseudo-random bit generators. Elementary adders are fast, area and power efficient for small bit sizes. Carry save adder computes the addition in O(n) time complexity, due to its ripple carry stage. Parallel prefix adders such as Han-Carlson compute the addition in O(log(n)) time complexity but at the cost of additional circuitry. Hence new high-speed power-efficient adder architecture is proposed which uses four stages to compute the addition, which consumes less power, and the adder delay decreases to O(n/2). Even though it is not much faster than the High-speed Area efficient VLSI architecture of three operand adders (HSAT3), it computes the addition by utilizing less power. The proposed architecture is implemented using Verilog HDL in Xilinx 14.7 design environment and it is evident that this adder architecture is 2 times faster than the carry save adder and 1, 1.5, 1.75 times faster than the hybrid adder structure for 32, 64, 128 bits respectively. Also, power utilization is 1.95 times lesser than HSAT3, 1.94 times lesser than the Han-Carlson adder, and achieves the lowest PDP than the existing three operand techniques.

Deep Clustering with Self-supervision using Pairwise Data Similarities
Authors: Sadeghi Mohammadreza , Armanfard Narges
Published: June 2023

Deep clustering incorporates embedding into clustering to find a lower-dimensional space appropriate for clustering. In this paper we propose a novel deep clustering framework with self-supervision using pairwise data similarities (DCSS). The proposed method consists of two successive phases. In the first phase we propose to form hypersphere-like groups of similar data points, i.e. one hypersphere per cluster, employing an autoencoder which is trained using cluster-specific losses. The hyper-spheres are formed in the autoencoder’s latent space. In the second phase, we propose to employ pairwise data similarities to create a K-dimensional space that is capable of accommodating more complex cluster distributions; hence, providing more accurate clustering performance. K is the number of clusters. The autoencoder’s latent space obtained in the first phase is used as the input of the second phase. Effectiveness of both phases are demonstrated on seven benchmark datasets through conducting a rigorous set of experiments.
UAV Coverage Path Planning with Quantum-based Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient
Authors: Silvirianti Silvirianti , Narottama Bhaskara , Shin Soo Young
Published: June 2023

This study proposes quantum-based deep deterministic policy gradient (Q-DDPG) and quantum-based recurrent DDPG (Q-RDDPG) schemes for time-series optimization in UAV communications. Herein, Q-DDPG based actor-critic reinforcement learning is utilized to optimize action selections in a large state and continuous action space. In this scheme, quantum models are exploited to reduce computational complexity and training loss. As a particular case, Q-DDPG and Q-RDDPG are employed for trajectory optimization and dynamic resource allocation in UAV communications. Quantum circuits of the Q-DDPG schemes are described to showcase their implementation in noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) computers. The results demonstrate that Q-DDPG and Q-RDDPG schemes achieved higher rewards with lower training losses compared to classical DDPG.

Authors: Jamaluddin Triwidyastuti , Narottama Bhaskara , Shin Soo Young
Published: June 2023

 In this paper, an unsupervised federated quantum generative adversarial network (UF-QGAN) is proposed to handle optimization issues in wireless communications. The proposed UF-QGAN considers unsupervised learning so that it could work without labeling for the training dataset. By adopting the federated framework, the computational load could be distributed between the cloud and edge. As a representative example, the proposed UFQGAN is applied for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). Achievable sum rate and complexity are investigated for the performance measure. Simulation results show that the UF-QGAN, which not requires data labeling, achieved a similar achievable sum rate compared to the supervised learning scheme 
News Coverage Disparities Between the 2020 Election and January 6th: A Quantitative Look
Authors: Boyer Ryan , Scherer William
Published: June 2023

We modeled the evening news, using LDA topic modeling, between 2020-11-09 and 2021-01-05, using the transcripts of primetime news programs from three of the major cable news networks (CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News).We see no evidence that the right wing or left-wing partisan media directly incited the January 6th riot. However, FoxNews’s repeated claims of voter fraud, illegal vote counting, and general election conspiracy likely contributed to a political environment that allowed conspiracy, hysteria, and extremism to thrive. As the most watched cable news network in America in 2020 with roughly 20 times more hourly viewers than Newsmax, Fox News’ potential cultural impact is extremely large. People’s frame of reference for decision making is typically based in television news, especially for those over 35; therefore, clear differences in news stories presented will result in a very fragmented national perspective and a difficult political debate.
Efficient Implementation of Mahalanobis Distance on Ferroelectric FinFET Crossbar for Outlier Detection

Published: June 2023

The developments in the nascent field of artificial-intelligence-of-things (AIoT) relies heavily on the availability of high-quality multi-dimensional data. A huge amount of data is being collected in this era of big data, predominantly for AI/ML algorithms and emerging applications. Considering such voluminous quantities, the collected data may contain a substantial number of outliers which must be detected before utilizing them for data mining or computations. Therefore, outlier detection techniques such as Mahalanobis distance computation have gained significant popularity recently. Mahalanobis distance, the multivariate equivalent of the Euclidean distance, is used to detect the outliers in the correlated data accurately and finds widespread application in fault identification, data clustering, single-class classification, information security, data mining, etc. However, traditional CMOS-based approaches to compute Mahalanobis distance are bulky and consume a huge amount of energy. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a compact and energy-efficient implementation of an outlier detection technique which may be deployed on AIoT primitives, including wireless sensor nodes for in-situ outlier detection and generation of high-quality data. To this end, in this paper, for the first time, we have proposed an efficient Ferroelectric FinFET-based implementation for detecting outliers in correlated multivariate data using Mahalanobis distance. The proposed implementation utilizes two crossbar arrays of ferroelectric FinFETs to calculate the Mahalanobis distance and detect outliers in the popular Wisconsin breast cancer dataset using a novel inverter-based threshold circuit. Our implementation exhibits an accuracy of 94.1% which is comparable to the software implementations while consuming a significantly low energy (13.56 pJ)
