Building Crack Detection Based on Digital Image Processing Technology and Multiscale Feature Analysis Automatic Detection Algorithm by Chenguang Liu

“…The human inspection will undoubtedly be interfered by the individual’s psychological, physical, and external conditions, and there may also be unobjective emotions, so it is impossible to ensure that the quality of the detection is up to standard and accurate. This paper combines digital image processing technology and multiscale feature analysis automatic detection algorithm to construct an intelligent building structure crack detection system. …”

Distributed high-efficiency entropy energy-saving clustering routing algorithm for SDWSN by Qiaoqiao MA, Ligang DONG, Xian JIANG

“…In order to improve the life of software defined wireless sensor network (SDWSN) and reduce the energy consumption of data transmission, a hybrid optimization algorithm based on firefly algorithm (FA) and biogeography-based optimization (BBO) were designed, and based on the hybrid optimization algorithm, a distributed high-efficiency entropy energy-saving clustering routing algorithm (DHEEC) was designed, using energy entropy and hybrid optimization algorithm for cluster head selection.The simulation results show that the hybrid optimization algorithm outperforms other algorithms on standard functions.The number of death rounds of 10% nodes of DHEEC is about 13.89% higher than that of IFCEER, and about 41.05% higher than that of DEEC-FA, and the energy utilization is improved.…”

QR code security management system based on WPKI and iris recognition by Yu FU, Lianliang SUN, Xiaoping WU

“…Aiming at the deficiency of existing QR code security technology,a security management system based on WPKI and iris recognition was designed and implemented.The system uses digital certificates to sign the hashed information for the user to verify the source of the QR code based on WPKI technology.Through the public security household registration management system,WPKI/CA system,server and mobile client four subsystems to standardize the management of the production and identification of QR code,and the application for the certificate of the user real name certification combined with biometric identification technology,indirectly realizing the binding of digital certificates and user physical identities to form a set of accountability mechanisms.Test results show that the system can meet accuracy and robustness requirements.…”

Novel key management and authentication scheme for ad hoc space networks by YANG De-ming, MU De-jun, XU Zhong

“…To be implemented using a flexible distributed architecture consisting of a constellation of dynamically de-ployed or configured satellites that were networked together into an integrated information system,the satellites could form an ad hoc self-organizational network,which posed unique challenges to security for the network.A novel and flexible security architecture was proposed,which aimed to provide public key infrastructure and authentication scheme.Based on the absolute distributed certificate authority almost any standard public-key-based authentication protocol could be adopted directly.In cases where the space nodes involved were extremely limited in computational resources,a light-weight authentication scheme that provided integrity and confidentiality based on cryptographic hash functions and symmetric key cryptography was proposed.…”

Bringing phonological oddities to the fore: The Basque sibilants by Iván Igartua

“…Many studies have been devoted to the articulatory and acoustic properties of sibilants in Standard Basque and several dialectal varieties. In this paper, written as a contribution to this well-deserved Festschrift in honor of José Ignacio Hualde, I compare the Basque system of sibilants and its features with other structurally more or less analogous systems, drawing on recent typological research, in order to gain a more nuanced understanding of the alleged uniqueness of the Basque sibilants. …”

FUZZY LOGIC APPARATUS AS A TOOL FOR ASSESSING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF DIGITALIZATION OF A COMPANY by V. S. Kokhanova

“…The paper substantiates the choice of a universal fuzzy logic tool as a mathematical apparatus for forming an assessment: a system of fuzzy logical conclusions – standard five-level [0; 1]-classifiers. The possibility of fuzzy classification of properties, as well as qualimetry based on the aggregation of hierarchies of factors, will make it possible to assess the level of efficiency of enterprise digitalization by the degree of success.…”
