A universal panel of STR loci for the study of polymorphism of the species <i>Canis lupus</i> and forensic identification of dog and wolf by A. E. Hrebianchuk, I. S. Tsybovsky

“…Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) between samples revealed significant differentiation values (FST = 0.0828, p &lt; 0.05), which allows the panel to be used for differentiating between wolf and dog samples. For the first time in the forensic examination of objects of animal origin in the Republic of Belarus, population subdivision coefficients (θ­-values) were calculated for each of the 15 STR loci of the test system being reported. …”

Physicochemical Properties of the CoO/AlO, AgO/AlO and AgO-CoO/AlO Systems and Their Catalytic Activities towards Acid-Base and Redox Reactions by E.A. El-Sharkawy, Shar S. Al-Shihry, A.M. Youssef

“…The conversion of propan-2-ol at 573 K was followed using the micro-catalytic pulse technique, whereas the decomposition of H 2 O 2 at 298–313 K was followed by determining the volume of oxygen released with time. Solid-solid interactions between the components of the systems resulted in the formation of Co 3 O 4 and CoAl 2 O 4 , their ratio depending on the chemical composition and heat-treatment temperature employed with Ag in its metallic form. …”

Adversarial examples defense method based on multi-dimensional feature maps knowledge distillation by Baolin QIU, Ping YI

“…The neural network approach has been commonly used in computer vision tasks.However, adversarial examples are able to make a neural network generate a false prediction.Adversarial training has been shown to be an effective approach to defend against the impact of adversarial examples.Nevertheless, it requires high computing power and long training time thus limiting its application scenarios.An adversarial examples defense method based on knowledge distillation was proposed, reusing the defense experience from the large datasets to new classification tasks.During distillation, teacher model has the same structure as student model and the feature map vector was used to transfer experience, and clean samples were used for training.Multi-dimensional feature maps were utilized to enhance the semantic information.Furthermore, an attention mechanism based on feature map was proposed, which boosted the effect of distillation by assigning weights to features according to their importance.Experiments were conducted over cifar100 and cifar10 open-source dataset.And various white-box attack algorithms such as FGSM (fast gradient sign method), PGD (project gradient descent) and C＆amp;W (Carlini-Wagner attack) were applied to test the experimental results.The accuracy of the proposed method on Cifar10 clean samples exceeds that of adversarial training and is close to the accuracy of the model trained on clean samples.Under the PGD attack of L2 distance, the efficiency of the proposed method is close to that of adversarial training, which is significantly higher than that of normal training.Moreover, the proposed method is a light-weight adversarial defense method with low learning cost.The computing power requirement is far less than that of adversarial training even if optimization schemes such as attention mechanism and multi-dimensional feature map are added.Knowledge distillation can learn the decision-making experience of normal samples and extract robust features as a neural network learning scheme.It uses a small amount of data to generate accurate and robust models, improves generalization, and reduces the cost of adversarial training.…”
