Game theory-based malware propagation model for wireless sensor network by Haiping ZHOU, Shigen SHEN, Longjun HUANG, Sheng FENG

“…Malware propagation is an important security problem faced by wireless sensor network (WSN).From the perspective of game theory,the microscopic mechanism of malware propagationin WSN was analyzed.The attack-defense game model of WSN was built,and the mixed Nash equilibrium solution of the model was obtained.With the solution,the infection probability of malware was determined and the theoretical model for the malware propagation in WSN was established.Meanwhile,a cellular automata model was proposed to simulate malware propagation process in WSN.Simulation experiments reveal the relationship between the propagation speed and the game parameters.The results of this study are of significance for people to formulate measures to reduce the propagation speed of malware.…”

EEG emotion recognition based on parallel separable convolution and label smoothing regularization by Yong ZHANG, Jikui LIU, Wenlong KE

“…In recent years, emotion recognition methods based on deep learning and electroencephalogram (EEG) have achieved good results.However, existing methods still have issues such as incomplete extraction of emotional features from EEG and significant impact from artificially mislabeled emotional labels.A parallel separable convolution and label smoothing regularization (PSC-LSR) network model was proposed.Firstly, through the attention mechanism, EEG important time points and important channels were given greater weight to obtain shallow emotional features of EEG.Secondly, a parallel separable convolution module was used to comprehensively extract EEG emotional information and obtain deep emotional features.Finally, the emotion label smoothing regularization method was used to optimize the model parameters, which increased model’s fault tolerance probability for incorrect labels, enhanced the generalization and robustness of the network model, and improved accuracy of EEG emotion recognition.The proposed method has been validated in two datasets, in which the average accuracy rates of arousal and valence dimensions in the DEAP dataset reaches 99.23% and 99.13%, respectively.In the Dreamer dataset, the average accuracy rates for both arousal and valence dimensions reaches 97.33% and 97.25%.…”

RSS-TOA based localization algorithm in non-line-of-sight environment by Zhigang LU, ·ouming LI, Xianghong JIA, Shengming CHANG, Xiaoli WANG

“…The existence of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) error can degrade the positioning performance in wireless sensor network localization system,especially in indoor localization.To overcome the localization error caused by NLOS propagation,a localization algorithm was proposed based on received signal strength (RSS) and time-of-arrival (TOA).Firstly,a non-convex optimization problem was established based on RSS and TOA.Then,the original non-convex optimization problem was transformed into a convex optimization problem through the second-order cone relaxation technique,therefore a sub-optimal solution to the original problem could be obtained efficiently.Finally,computer simulation results show that the proposed method can provide higher estimation accuracy and better performance.…”
