Contextualization of Trait Nexus and Gene Action for Quantitative and Qualitative Characteristics in Indian Mustard by Sumanta Prasad Chand, Sandip Debnath, Mehdi Rahimi, Mohd. Shaikhul Ashraf, Pankaj Bhatt, Saima Ahmed Rahin

“…The variance explained by SCA was greater than that explained by GCA, as indicated by the Ϭ2 gca/Ϭ2 sca ratio being less than one for all characters, implying that nonadditive gene actions such as dominance, epistasis, and other interaction effects played an important role in the presence of these attributes. Punjab Local was discovered to be an excellent general merge for reducing crop duration, whereas JD6 was an excellent combiner for seed yield per crop, aphid infestation indicator, seed yield per crop, and oil production per plant. …”

Research on meaningful image encryption algorithm based on 2-dimensional compressive sensing by Hua REN, Shaozhang NIU, Ruyong REN, Zhen YUE

“…Aiming at the problems that the existing compressive sensing-based meaningful image encryption algorithms have low visual security of the encrypted images and poor quality of the reconstructed images, a 2-dimensional compressive sensing-based (2DCS) meaningful image encryption algorithm was proposed.Firstly, a chaotic pseudo-random sequence generation method associated with plaintext was designed, and the global random permutation and grayscale transformation operations were used for pre-encryption to improve the decrypted image quality.The generated pre-encrypted image was used as the input for 2DCS, and the secret image was generated after the compression encryption and quantization operations.Secondly, the relationship between the hidden and the modified data was considered, and an adaptive embedding method was adopted to modify the carrier coefficient values to improve the visual security of meaningful encrypted image.Finally, the 2-dimensional projection gradient reconstruction method was adopted to decompress and decrypt to obtain the decrypted image.The experimental results show that, compared with the existing algorithms, the proposed algorithm not only improves the visual security of encrypted image and the quality of reconstructed image, but also can resist noise and cropping attacks.…”

Robust Command Filtered Adaptive Backstepping Control for a Quadrotor Aircraft by Yicheng Liu, Junhui Ma, Haiyan Tu

“…Different from most of the existing control algorithms, the proposed method does not adopt the dual-loop scheme in which the design is divided into position control and attitude control. Instead, command filter backstepping is employed to design the controller based on the integrated motion model such that the stability can be guaranteed strictly for the flight control system. …”
