Uncertain data analysis algorithm based on fast Gaussian transform by Rong-hua CHI, Yuan CHENG, Su-xia ZHU, Shao-bin HUANG, De-yun CHEN

“…The effect of the uncertainties needs to be taken full advantage during uncertain data clustering.An uncertain data clustering algorithm based on fast Gaussian transform was proposed,to solve the problems about the impact on the accuracy of clustering results and the clustering efficiency caused by the uncertainties,during the construction of uncertain data models and the distance measurement,which existed in the current researches.First,the data model according to the characteristic of the uncertainty distribution was constructed,without the premise of assuming the data distribution.And the similarity between uncertain data objects was measured by combining the two important features of uncertain objects,attribute features and the probability density function representing the characteristic of uncertainty distribution.And then the uncertain data clustering algorithm was proposed.Finally,the experiment results on UCI and real datasets indicate the better efficiency and accuracy of proposed algorithm.…”

Selfish mining detection scheme based on the characters of transactions by Heli WANG, Qiao YAN

“…Selfish mining is an attack strategy in Proof-of-Work based blockchains, where attackers withhold their mined blocks to intercept the awards of other honest miners, resulting in higher profitability.This attack undermines the incentive compatibility of Proof-of-Work.Although there are various studies from researchers in recent years, there is no effective detection scheme as the vulnerability of blockchain in propagation delay makes it challenging to distinguish the attackers from honest miners.A scheme for selfish mining detection was introduced.In this scheme, a state value was assigned to the new block based on transaction amount and the transaction fee of the block.By analyzing the relationship between state value and transaction characteristics, we can determine if the block was mined by a selfish miner.The scheme is verified by an experiment with an accuracy of 86.02%.…”
