Grey Wolf Optimization- and Particle Swarm Optimization-Based PD/I Controllers and DC/DC Buck Converters Designed for PEM Fuel Cell-Powered Quadrotor by Habibe Gursoy Demir

“…On the other hand, it was determined that the tracking errors in the performance of the desired and actual values of both translational and rotational movement parameters and the forces and torques required for the quadrotor to follow this route were obtained at a maximum of 4% for systems optimized with both techniques. This shows that the full systems optimized with both GWO and PSO algorithms significantly increase their energy efficiency and provide maximum route-following performance.…”

Location privacy protection method based on lightweight K-anonymity incremental nearest neighbor algorithm by Saite CHEN, Weihai LI, Yuanzhi YAO, Nenghai YU

“…The use of location-based service brings convenience to people’s daily lives, but it also raises concerns about users’ location privacy.In the k-nearest neighbor query problem, constructing K-anonymizing spatial regions is a method used to protects users’ location privacy, but it results in a large waste of communication overhead.The SpaceTwist scheme is an alternative method that uses an anchor point instead of the real location to complete the k-nearest neighbor query,which is simple to implement and has less waste of communication overhead.However,it cannot guarantee K-anonymous security, and the specific selection method of the anchor point is not provided.To address these shortcomings in SpaceTwist, some schemes calculate the user’s K-anonymity group by introducing a trusted anonymous server or using the way of user collaboration, and then enhance the end condition of the query algorithm to achieve K-anonymity security.Other schemes propose the anchor point optimization method based on the approximate distribution of interest points, which can further reduce the average communication overhead.A lightweight K-anonymity incremental nearest neighbor (LKINN) location privacy protection algorithm was proposed to improve SpaceTwist.LKINN used convex hull mathematical tool to calculate the key points of K-anonymity group, and proposed an anchor selection method based on it, achieving K-anonymity security with low computational and communication costs.LKINN was based on a hybrid location privacy protection architecture, making only semi-trusted security assumptions for all members of the system, which had lax security assumptions compared to some existing research schemes.Simulation results show that LKINN can prevent semi-trusted users from stealing the location privacy of normal users and has smaller query response time and communication overhead compare to some existing schemes.…”
