Federated learning scheme for mobile network based on reputation evaluation mechanism and blockchain by Ming YANG, Xuexian HU, Qihui ZHANG, Jianghong WEI, Wenfen LIU

“…Federated learning is a new distributed machine learning technology, where training tasks are deployed on user side and training model parameters are sent to the server side.In the whole process, participants do not need to share their own data directly, which greatly avoids privacy issues.However, the trust relationship between mobile users in the learning model has not been established in advance, there is hidden safety when users perform cooperative train with each other.In view of the above problems, a federated learning scheme for mobile network based on reputation evaluation mechanism and blockchain was proposed.The scheme allowed the server side to use subjective logic models to evaluate the reputation of participating mobile users and provided them with credible reputation opinions sharing environment and dynamic access strategy interface based on the technique of smart contract of blockchain.Theoretical and experimental analys is results show that the scheme can enable the server side to select reliable users for training.And it can achieve more fair and effective reputation calculations, which improves the accuracy of federated learning.…”

Fast Visual Tracking with Enhanced and Gradient-Guide Network by Dun Cao, Renhua Dai

“…Firstly, we adopt the lightweight ResNet-34 as the backbone to improve the proposed tracker’s speed by reducing the computational complexity, and then, to compensate for the performance loss caused by the lightweight backbone, we embed the SKNet from the attention mechanism to filter out the valueless features, and finally, we utilize the gradient-guide strategy to update the template timely. Extensive experiments on four large tracking datasets, including VOT-2016, OTB100, GOT-10k, and UAV123, confirming SiamMLG satisfactorily balance performance and efficiency, where it scores 0.515 on GOT-10k while running at 55 frames per second, which is nearly 3.6 times that of the state-of-the-art method.…”

Privacy-preserving real-time road conditions monitoring scheme based on intelligent traffic by Jiayin LI, Wenzhong GUO, Xiaoyan LI, Ximeng LIU

“…To alleviate the traffic pressure on roads,reduce the appearance of road congestion,and avoid the occurrence of traffic accidents,a privacy-preserving intelligent monitoring (PPIM) scheme based on intelligent traffic was proposed in combination with the safe and k-nearest neighbor (KNN) algorithm.To ensure the security of traffic data,the data content was randomly divided into independent parts via the secure multi-party computing strategy,and the data components were stored and encrypted separately by non-colluding multi-servers.To improve the accuracy of road condition monitoring,an improved KNN traffic monitoring algorithm was proposed.By virtue of the similarity calculation of data,the correlation value to measure the degree of traffic condition relationship between roads was obtained.And it was integrated with the KNN as the weight coefficient.To speed up the processing of dense data,a series of data security computing protocols were designed,and the data security processing was realized.In addition,real traffic data were used to verify the algorithm.The results show that the improved KNN algorithm is helpful to improve the accuracy of traffic monitoring.The analysis shows that the algorithm can not only guarantee the safety of data but improve the accuracy of traffic monitoring.…”
