Steganographer identification of JPEG image based on feature selection and graph convolutional representation by Qianqian ZHANG, Yi ZHANG, Hao LI, Yuanyuan MA, Xiangyang LUO

“…Aiming at the problem that the feature dimension of JPEG image steganalysis is too high, which leads to the complexity of distance calculation between users and a decrease in the identification performance of the steganographer, a method for steganographer recognition based on feature selection and graph convolutional representation was proposed.Firstly, the steganalysis features of the user’s images were extracted, and the feature subset with highseparability was selected.Then, the users were represented as a graph, and the features of users were obtained by training the graph convolutional neural network.Finally, because inter-class separability and intra-class aggregation were considered, the features of users that could capture the differences between users were learned.For steganographers who use JPEG steganography, such as nsF5, UED, J-UNIWARD, and so on, to embed secret information in images, the proposed method can reduce the feature dimensions and computing.The identification accuracy of various payloads can reach more than 80.4%, and it has an obvious advantage at the low payload.…”

APG mergence and topological potential optimization based heuristic user association strategy by Zhirui HU, Meihua BI, Fangmin XU, Meilin HE, Changliang ZHENG

“…Therefore, it is reasonable to model the problem of improving network scalable degree as minimizing network coupling degree,and it is feasible to improve network scalable degree by reducing network coupling degree.2)The upper limit of computational complexity of the proposed algorithm is <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mi mathvariant="script">O</mi><mo stretchy="false">(</mo><mi>K</mi><mi>N</mi><msub> <mi>log</mi> <mn>2</mn> </msub> <mi>N</mi><mo>+</mo><msup> <mi>k</mi> <mn>2</mn> </msup> <mo>+</mo><mi>N</mi><mi>N</mi><msub> <mover accent="true"> <mi>N</mi> <mo>¯</mo> </mover> <mtext>p</mtext> </msub> <mo stretchy="false">)</mo></math></inline-formula>,while that of directly solving the optimization problem is<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><mi mathvariant="script">O</mi><mo stretchy="false">(</mo><msup> <mi>N</mi> <mrow> <msub> <mover accent="true"> <mi>N</mi> <mo>¯</mo> </mover> <mtext>u</mtext> </msub> <mi>K</mi></mrow> </msup> <mo stretchy="false">)</mo></math></inline-formula>.3)For theoretical analysis of the network scalable degree,take Fig.3 as an example.If AP2 changes,12 APs in Fig. 3(a)are affected and the network scalable degree is η₂=0.51,while 4 APs in Fig.3(c)are affected and the network scalable degree is η₂=0.79.4)Fig.5 shows the simulation results of network scalable degree.Compared with the traditional strategy,the network scalable degree is improved by 9.59% with 4.43% user rate loss.Compared with the strategy in[10],the network scalable degree is improved by 22.15% with 4.99% user rate loss. 5) The algorithm parameters, the threshold β₀of overlap rate and the upper limit number N₀of AP associated, effect the performance.As shown in Fig.6,with β₀or N₀decreases,η increases and the total user rate decreases. …”
