Research on the cooperative offloading strategy of sensory data based on delay and energy constraints by Peiyan YUAN, Saike SHAO, Ran WEI, Junna ZHANG, Xiaoyan ZHAO

“…The edge offloading of the internet of things (IoT) sensing data was investigated.Multiple edge servers cooperatively offload all or part of the sensing data initially sent to the cloud center, which protects data privacy and improves user experience.In the process of cooperative offloading, the transmission of the sensing data and the information exchange among edge servers will consume system resources, resulting in the cost of cooperation.How to maximize the offloading ratio of the sensing data while maintaining a low collaboration cost is a challenging problem.A joint optimization problem of sensing data offload ratio and cooperative scale satisfying the constraints of network delay and system energy consumption was formulated.Subsequently, a distributed alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) via constraint projection and variable splitting was proposed to solve the problem.Finally, simulation experiments were carried out on MATLAB.Numerical results show that the proposed method improved the network delay and energy consumption compared to the fairness cooperation algorithm (FCA), the distributed optimization algorithm (DOA), and multi-subtasks-to-multi-servers offloading scheme (MTMS) algorithm.…”

Research on filter-based adversarial feature selection against evasion attacks by Qimeng HUANG, Miaomiao WU, Yun LI

“…With the rapid development and widespread application of machine learning technology, its security has attracted increasing attention, leading to a growing interest in adversarial machine learning.In adversarial scenarios, machine learning techniques are threatened by attacks that manipulate a small number of samples to induce misclassification, resulting in serious consequences in various domains such as spam detection, traffic signal recognition, and network intrusion detection.An evaluation criterion for filter-based adversarial feature selection was proposed, based on the minimum redundancy and maximum relevance (mRMR) method, while considering security metrics against evasion attacks.Additionally, a robust adversarial feature selection algorithm was introduced, named SDPOSS, which was based on the decomposition-based Pareto optimization for subset selection (DPOSS) algorithm.SDPOSS didn’t depend on subsequent models and effectively handles large-scale high-dimensional feature spaces.Experimental results demonstrate that as the number of decompositions increases, the runtime of SDPOSS decreases linearly, while achieving excellent classification performance.Moreover, SDPOSS exhibits strong robustness against evasion attacks, providing new insights for adversarial machine learning.…”

Three-Dimensional Extended Target Tracking and Shape Learning Based on Double Fourier Series and Expectation Maximization by Hongge Mao, Xiaojun Yang

“…Specifically, the 3D shape is modeled using a radial function estimated via double Fourier series (DFS) expansion, and orientation is represented using the compact, singularity-free axis-angle method. The ECM algorithm facilitates this joint estimation: an Unscented Kalman Smoother infers kinematics in the E-step, while the M-step estimates DFS shape parameters and rotation angles by minimizing regularized cost functions, promoting robustness and smoothness. …”
