Assessing the stability of indoor farming systems using data outlier detection by Jean Pompeo, Ziwen Yu, Chi Zhang, Songzi Wu, Ying Zhang, Celina Gomez, Melanie Correll

“…The residual analysis highlighted that outliers could be attributed to potential issues such as sensor noise, drift, or other sources of uncertainty in data collection. Across different trials, the system displayed varying degrees of resistance to cumulative Agr.Ops, with some trials showing increased resilience over time.DiscussionThe alternative decomposition method used effectively identified outliers and provided valuable insights into the functionality of the system under different operational loads. …”

Vulnerability detection method for blockchain smart contracts based on metamorphic testing by Jinfu CHEN, Zhenxin WANG, Saihua CAI, Qiaowei FENG, Yuhao CHEN, Rongtian XU, KwakuKudjo Patrick

“…Aimed at the defects of existing test methods, a vulnerability detection method for blockchain smart contracts based on metamorphic testing was proposed, which could generate test cases for specific functions in blockchain smart contracts to detect possible vulnerabilities.According to the possible security vulnerabilities, different metamorphosis relationships were designed and then metamorphic testing was performed.Through verifying whether the metamorphic relationship between the source test case and the subsequent test case was satisfied, whether the smart contract had related security vulnerabilities was judged.The experimental results show that the proposed method can effectively detect the security vulnerabilities in the smart contracts.…”
