De anonymizing social networks and inferring private attributes using knowledge graphs
Venue: IEEE INFOCOM 2016 The 35th Annual IEEE International Conference on Computer Communications

Social network data is widely shared, transferred and published for research purposes and business interests, but it has raised much concern on users' privacy. Even though users' identity information is always removed, attackers can still de anonymize users with the help of auxiliary information. To protect against de anonymization attack, various privacy protection techniques for social networks have been proposed. However, most existing approaches assume specific and restrict network structure as background knowledge and ignore semantic level prior belief of attackers, which are not always realistic in practice and do not apply to arbitrary privacy scenarios. Moreover, the privacy inference attack in the presence of semantic background knowledge is barely investigated. To address these shortcomings, in this work, we introduce knowledge graphs to explicitly express arbitrary prior belief of the attacker for any individual user. The processes of de anonymization and privacy inference are accordingly formulated based on knowledge graphs. Our experiment on data of real social networks shows that knowledge graphs can strengthen de anonymization and inference attacks, and thus increase the risk of privacy disclosure. This suggests the validity of knowledge graphs as a general effective model of attackers' background knowledge for social network privacy preservation.
Automated extraction of concept matcher thesaurus from semi structured catalogue like sources of data on the web
Venue: 2016 18th Conference of Open Innovations Association and Seminar on Information Security and Protection of Information Technology (FRUCT ISPIT)

Ontology design and the process of populating a data set with knowledge following the chosen or developed ontology to fit the principles of Semantic Web and Linked Open Data is a time consuming and iterative process, requiring either expert knowledge or a set of tools for data scraping from web. A valid and consistent ontology and knowledge withing the data set require unification of concepts which means overcoming ambiguity and synonymy of terms which become individuals of ontology. In this paper we spot on techniques used for organising a Russian food product data set under a light weight FOOD Ontology and concept matching in particular. Main approaches to data set concept unification, synonymic term matching and ways to collect dictionaries for matcher are mentioned. The tool for catalogue like semi structured resources parsing and thesaurus extraction is developed and introduced for the task of on the fly concept matching.
Sustainable community based drinking water systems in developing countries: stakeholder perspectives

Over the past 25 years, stakeholders have become increasingly involved in the development and management of community based projects. This paper presents the results of a study aimed at establishing stakeholder perspectives and priorities for sustainable community based drinking water systems (CBDWS) The stakeholders have agreements and biases, which require an improved understanding of the sustainability of CBDWS. Environmental and institutional components of sustainability were noted to be two top priorities among the different groups of stakeholders. Most stakeholders agreed on priorities of clean drinking water sources, properly maintained infrastructure protecting the water quality, and the need for socially aware consumer communities. A complete review of the existing engineering practices and policy development is needed for successful implementation of any sustainable CBDWS.
Body expression recognition from animated 3D skeleton

We present a novel and generic framework for the recognition of body expressions using human postures. Motivated by the state of the art from the domain of psychology, our approach recognizes expression by analyzing sequence of pose. Features proposed in this article are computationally simple and intuitive to understand. They are based on visual cues and provide in depth understanding of body postures required to recognize body expressions. We have evaluated our approach on different databases with heterogeneous movements and body expressions. Our recognition results exceeds state of the art for some database and for others we obtain results at par with state of the art.

A consumption system model integrating quality, satisfaction and behavioral intentions in online shopping
Venue: Inf. Technol. Manag.

A consumption system has two constitutive dimensions: the structural elements and the transaction process. Little attention has been paid to the effect of the consumption system on customer satisfaction and behavioral intentions during online shopping. This paper develops and tests a consumption system model for online shopping that incorporates both product and e service elements, and the online and offline stages of the transaction process. Applying the transaction process of online shopping, this paper dichotomizes perceived product quality into online perceived product quality (OnPPQ) and offline perceived product quality (OffPPQ) and proposes four dimensions of e service quality integral to the transaction process. An integrative model is proposed to link OnPPQ, OffPPQ, e service quality, satisfaction and behavioral intentions. The research was based on empirical data from over 260 university students with experience purchasing apparel from online shops. Structural equation modelling was used to test the model and the hypotheses. The results show that perceived e service quality, OnPPQ and OffPPQ significantly affect customer satisfaction. However, only customer satisfaction and OffPPQ have a direct effect on behavioral intention. A consumption system model successfully theorizes the dimensions of perceived product quality and e service quality. The model considers the simultaneous effects of the two structural elements, product and e service, as well as the temporal effect of the online shopping transaction process. Different structural elements in separate transaction processes have distinct effects on satisfaction and behavioral intentions. The research and its results are especially valuable for online shopping for physical goods.
Multiple D3 Instantons and Mock Modular Forms I

We study D3 instanton corrections to the hypermultiplet moduli space in type IIB string theory compactified on a Calabi Yau threefold. In a previous work, consistency of D3 instantons with S duality was established at first order in the instanton expansion, using the modular properties of the M5 brane elliptic genus. We extend this analysis to the two instanton level, where wall crossing phenomena start playing a role. We focus on the contact potential, an analogue of the Kahler potential which must transform as a modular form under S duality. We show that it can be expressed in terms of a suitable modification of the partition function of D4 D2 D0 BPS black holes, constructed out of the generating function of MSW invariants (the latter coincide with Donaldson Thomas invariants in a particular chamber) Modular invariance of the contact potential then requires that, in the case where the D3 brane wraps a reducible divisor, the generating function of MSW invariants must transform as a vector valued mock modular form, with a specific modular completion built from the MSW invariants of the constituents. Physically, this gives a powerful constraint on the degeneracies of BPS black holes. Mathematically, our result gives a universal prediction for the modular properties of Donaldson Thomas invariants of pure two dimensional sheaves.
Semantic Word Clusters Using Signed Normalized Graph Cuts
Venue: ArXiv

Vector space representations of words capture many aspects of word similarity, but such methods tend to make vector spaces in which antonyms (as well as synonyms) are close to each other. We present a new signed spectral normalized graph cut algorithm, signed clustering, that overlays existing thesauri upon distributionally derived vector representations of words, so that antonym relationships between word pairs are represented by negative weights. Our signed clustering algorithm produces clusters of words which simultaneously capture distributional and synonym relations. We evaluate these clusters against the SimLex 999 dataset (Hill et al.,2014) of human judgments of word pair similarities, and also show the benefit of using our clusters to predict the sentiment of a given text.

Chemical Composition, Antibacterial Properties and Mechanism of Action of Essential Oil from Clove Buds against Staphylococcus aureus
Venue: Molecules

The essential oil of clove has a wide range of pharmacological and biological activities and is widely used in the medicine, fragrance and flavoring industries. In this work, 22 components of the essential oil obtained from clove buds were identified. Eugenol was the major component (76.23% The essential oil exhibited strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 0.625 mg/mL, and the antibacterial effects depended on its concentration and action time. Kill time assays also confirmed the essential oil had a significant effect on the growth rate of surviving S. aureus. We hypothesized that the essential oil may interact with the cell wall and membrane first. On the one hand it destroys cell wall and membranes, next causing the losses of vital intracellular materials, which finally result in the bacterial death. Besides, essential oil penetrates to the cytoplasmic membrane or enters inside the cell after destruction of cell structure, and then inhibits the normal synthesis of DNA and proteins that are required for bacterial growth. These results suggested that the effects of the clove essential oil on the growth inhibition of S. aureus may be at the molecular level rather than only physical damage.
Profile of Antibacterial Activities of Essential Oil and Oleoresin from Clove Buds against Several Food Related Bacteria

The oil from clove buds had a wide range of pharmacological action and bioactivities and is widely used in the medicine, food and flavouring industries. In this work, the antibacterial activity of the essential oil (EO) and oleoresin (OL) from clove buds against several food related bacteria were evaluated based on Oxford cup method, the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) assays, and the results showed that there is no obvious difference in antibacterial activity between essential oil and oleoresin, and they exhibited better antibacterial activity against test bacteria, and the antibacterial effects depended on its concentrations and action time. Kill time assay also showed the essential oil and oleoresin from clove buds had a significant inhibitory effect on the growth rate of surviving Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli.
Bandwidth enhancement of a microstrip line fed printed rotated wide slot antenna with tuning stubs
Venue: 2016 IEEE MTT S International Wireless Symposium (IWS)

In this paper, a printed microstrip line fed antenna with a wide rotated square slot, a rotated patch and a pair of tuning stubs is presented. By attaching a pair of tuning stubs to the feedline, bandwidth enhancement for broadband operation can be realized by introducing an additional resonance in the high frequency range. Measured results show that the antenna can operate from 2.38 9.64 GHz with a reflection coefficient less than 10 dB. This is almost twice the bandwidth achieved by the microstrip line fed rotated slot antenna without the tuning stubs. By selecting proper dimensions for the tuning stubs, the antenna can be used for many wireless applications that require wideband and multiband operation.

Discovery and expression of 3 siglecs like in Oreochromis niloticus neutrophil, and their interaction with group B streptococcal sialylated capsular polysaccharides.
Venue: Molecular immunology

Sialic acid binding immunoglobulin like lectins (Siglecs) are members of the largest superfamily of immune receptors; they recognize sialic acid and are mainly expressed in immune cells. Studies on mammals indicate that Streptococcus agalactiae (GBS) evade immune reactions by interacting with the host immune cells via the sialic acid of sialylated capsular polysaccharides. However, it is currently unknown if fish derived GBS can interact with Siglecs to evade host immunity. In this study, we examined the binding of FITC GBS with neutrophils to determine the presence of receptors that binds with GBS. Furthermore, 3 Siglec like genes, (OnSiglec 1 like/ 4b like/ 14 like) from the neutrophils cDNA were screened by PCR. All the genes had specific domains (immunostimulation and immunosuppression domains) conserved amino acid residues, and sialic acid polysaccharide binding sites that are found in mammalian Siglecs. Flow cytometry of Siglecs like/COS 7 cells and ELISA of Siglecs/Ex Fc fusion proteins confirmed that 3 Siglecs like have high binding activity with GBS. Erythrocytes adhesion assays and sialylated glycans binding assay confirmed that 3 Siglecs like bind to sialic acid polysaccharides. Siglecs like had high expression levels in the spleen, gill, and kidney in Oreochromis niloticus by qPCR. After experimental infection, Siglec 1 like/ 14 like showed a significant upregulated initially and later downregulated in liver, spleen, kidney, and gill. However, Siglec 4b like was downregulated in most tissues, except that in liver. The results indicate that 3 OnSiglecs like may recognize GBS sialylated capsular polysaccharides. GBS infections led to significant changes in Siglecs like expression in immune related tissues. However, immunostimulation or immunosuppression via the recognition of GBS by different Siglecs like molecules requires additional studies.
The challenge of reducing smoking in people with serious mental illness.
Venue: The Lancet. Respiratory medicine

The high prevalence of smoking in people with serious mental illness contributes substantially to the disproportionately high morbidity and premature mortality in this population. There is an urgent need to help people with serious mental illness to quit smoking. We discuss competing explanations for the high prevalence of smoking in people with serious mental illness and the effectiveness of available smoking cessation interventions. We propose trials of harm reduction options, such as nicotine replacement therapy and electronic cigarettes (e cigarettes) as long term substitutes for cigarettes in smokers with serious mental illness who are unable to quit smoking. We also propose that smoke free psychiatric units provide smoking cessation support on patient admission to the hospital and after discharge.
Information Geometry and Its Applications

This is the first comprehensive book on information geometry, written by the founder of the field. It begins with an elementary introduction to dualistic geometry and proceeds to a wide range of applications, covering information science, engineering, and neuroscience. It consists of four parts, which on the whole can be read independently. A manifold with a divergence function is first introduced, leading directly to dualistic structure, the heart of information geometry. This part (Part I) can be apprehended without any knowledge of differential geometry. An intuitive explanation of modern differential geometry then follows in Part II, although the book is for the most part understandable without modern differential geometry. Information geometry of statistical inference, including time series analysis and semiparametric estimation (the Neyman Scott problem) is demonstrated concisely in Part III. Applications addressed in Part IV include hot current topics in machine learning, signal processing, optimization, and neural networks. The book is interdisciplinary, connecting mathematics, information sciences, physics, and neurosciences, inviting readers to a new world of information and geometry. This book is highly recommended to graduate students and researchers who seek new mathematical methods and tools useful in their own fields.
K2x Sn4 x S8 x (x 0.65 1) a new metal sulfide for rapid and selective removal of Cs+ Sr2+ and UO22+ ions.
Venue: Chemical science

The fission of uranium produces radionuclides, 137Cs and 90Sr, which are major constituents of spent nuclear fuel. The half life of 137Cs and 90Sr is nearly 30 years and thus that makes them harmful to human life and the environment. The selective removal of these radionuclides in the presence of high salt concentrations from industrial nuclear waste is necessary for safe storage. Here we report the synthesis and crystal structure of K2x Sn4 x S8 x (x 0.65 1, KTS 3) a material which exhibits excellent Cs+ Sr2+ and UO22+ ion exchange properties in varying conditions. The compound adopts a layered structure which consists of exchangeable potassium ions sandwiched between infinite layers of octahedral and tetrahedral tin centers. K2x Sn4 x S8 x (x 0.65 1, KTS 3) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with cell parameters a 13.092(3) A, b 16.882(2) A, c 7.375(1) A and b 98.10(1)deg. Refinement of the single crystal diffraction data revealed the presence of Sn vacancies in the tetrahedra that are long range ordered. The interlayer potassium ions of KTS 3 can be exchanged for Cs+ Sr2+ and UO22+ KTS 3 exhibits rapid and efficient ion exchange behavior in a broad pH range. The distribution coefficients (Kd) for KTS 3 are high for Cs+ (5.5 x 104) Sr2+ (3.9 x 105) and UO22+ (2.7 x 104) at neutral pH (7.4, 6.9, 5.7 ppm Cs+ Sr2+ and UO22+ respectively; V/m 1000 mL g 1) KTS 3 exhibits impressive Cs+ Sr2+ and UO22+ ion exchange properties in high salt concentration and over a broad pH range, which coupled with the low cost, environmentally friendly nature and facile synthesis underscores its potential in treating nuclear waste.
