R-Vivaldi:distance range-aware IP network coordinate system by Da-bin WANG, Qiong HUANG, Xiao-long YANG, Ke-ping LONG

“…The experience showed that the predicted delay's accuracy was improved when the nodes were chosen around the given delay as anchors.Thus a distance range-aware IP network coordinate system(R-Vivaldi) was proposed.The main idea was:according to the approximate range of the predicted delay,the anchors were re-selected in the radius area of the approximate range to compute the new range.In accordance with the above process,the coordinate system constantly iterated the network distance and dynamically chose anchors until the prediction accuracy meet the requirement.Experiments show that the approach can not only effectively improve the prediction accuracy of delay but also overcome inconsistencies of the prediction accuracy to a certain extent.…”

Adaptive selection method of differential privacy GAN gradient clipping thresholds by Peng GUO, Shangping ZHONG, Kaizhi CHEN, Hang CHENG

“…A method of adaptive selection of differential privacy GAN gradient clipping threshold was proposed.The method assumes that a small portion of public data that is identically distributed with the private data can be accessed,a batch of data is randomly selected from the public data,a clipping threshold is set as an average gradient norm of the batch of data,and the above operations are iterated until the network converges.The method was verified on the Mnist and Cifar10 data sets.The results show that under a reasonable privacy budget,the accuracy of CNN classifiers is improved by 1%~4% compared with the differential privacy auxiliary classifier GAN,inception scores increased by 0.6~1.2.…”

Power allocation algorithm for cognitive radio energy harvesting networks based on energy cooperation by Zhen-wei XIE, Qi ZHU

“…An algorithm to optimize the power allocation by maximizing the system throughput in cognitive radio energy harvesting networks was proposed.The algorithm formulated the throughput optimization model subject to the causality constraints of the harvested energy within the two secondary users and the interference constraint of the primary user.In addition,by applying the variable-substitution method and problem equivalence transformation,the joint optimization problem of power and cooperative energy was decoupled into two problems:a power allocation problem and a cooperative energy one.The former problem could be solved by iterating the two decoupled problems.As shown in the simulation results,the energy cooperation can significantly improve the system throughput when the harvested energy difference between two nodes is rather large.…”

Cognitive network channel allocation method based on the queuing delay and game analysis by Jun LIU, Xiu-feng XIE

“…A new dynamic spectrum allocation method for distributed cognitive radio networks was proposed.In the method,packet transmission success rate is chosen as the utility function,the transmission delay is resolved by the priority queuing model,and the user’s channel allocation strategy is achieved by distributed game.Compared with other algorithms,the policy iteration process is improved effectively,and a dynamic strategy adjustment step is adopted.Each network user dynamically adjust their channel choose strategy based on current perception of the remaining user’s strategy.The proposed algorithm lets channel selection strategy converge more quickly to equilibrium point,and effectively suppresses the policy shocks.The simulation results validate the proposed algorithm.…”
