Method based on contrastive incremental learning for fine-grained malicious traffic classification by Yifeng WANG, Yuanbo GUO, Qingli CHEN, Chen FANG, Renhao LIN, Yongliang ZHOU, Jiali MA

“…In order to protect against continuously emerging unknown threats, a new method based on contrastive incremental learning for fine-grained malicious traffic classification was proposed.The proposed method was based on variational auto-encoder (VAE) and extreme value theory (EVT), and the high accuracy could be achieved in known, few-shot and unknown malicious classes and new classes were also identified without using a large number of old task samples, which met the demand of storage and time cost in incremental learning scenarios.Specifically, the contrastive learning was integrated into the encoder of VAE, and the A-Softmax was used for known and few-shot malicious traffic classification, EVT and the decoder of VAE were used for unknown malicious traffic recognition, all classes could be recognized without a lot of old samples when learning new tasks by using VAE reconstruction and knowledge distillation methods.Experimental results indicate that the proposed method is efficient in known, few-shot and unknown malicious classes, and has greatly reduced the forgetting speed of old knowledge in incremental learning scenarios.…”

Drive for Commercial Desertification in Mountain Areas: Evidence from the Province of Sondrio (Italy), 2010–2022 by Antonietta Clerici Maria

“…This paper investigates the rearrangement of the provincial distribution system between 2010 and 2022, focusing on the dynamics of food retail density in terms of shops and available floor area with respect to the resident population. What emerges is a progressive commercial rarefaction that plays a role in reshaping the relationship between the populations of builtup areas at different altitudes and leads to a sharp increase in instances of under-provision and commercial desertification in the strict sense. …”

Bursty topic detection method for microblog based on time series analysis by Min HE, Jie2 XU, Pan1 DU, Xue-qi1 CHENG, Li-hong WANG

“…Detecting bursty topics from microblogs was an important task to understand the current events attracting a large number of internet users.However,the existing hods suitable for news articles cannot be adopted directly for microblogs.Because microblogs have unique characteristics compared wi formal texts,including diversity,dynamic and noise.A detection method for microblog bursty topic was proposed based on time series analysis,which was an op-timization method of momentum model.The candidate bursty features were extracted by momentum model.The time se-ries of feature's momentum were modled by frequency domain analysis theory and stock trend analysis theory.The fre-quently pseudo-bursty features were filtered according to analysis results of frequency-domain characteristics.The inter-mittently pseudo-bursty features were filtered according to the novelty analysis result through stock trend theory.The bursty topics were finally emerged with combination of effective bursty features.The experiments are conducted on a real Sina microblog data set.It show that the proposed method improves the precis and F-measure remarkably compared with the momentum modle.…”

Des flots à contre-courant : des montagnes du Lesotho à la métropole sud-africaine by Yannick Rousselot

“…Coalitions of actors have emerged from these new relations that the transfer has produced, and as such, this project should be analysed as a hydraulic assemblage in which three distinct scales of territorialities are clashing or cooperating with each other: the regional scale, made up of South Africa’s political and economic elites, who seek to direct Southern Africa’s water resources towards the thirsty region in and around Johannesburg; the scale of the Lesotho government, which has a nationalist policy of monopolising any social and spatial stakes for the benefit of the national territory; and the scale of the Maloti communities, which claim their rights as a transnational Basotho nation and autonomy in the face of interventionism from the Lesotho state.…”
