Secure two-party line segments intersection scheme and its application in privacy-preserving convex hull intersection by Mao-hua SUN, Shou-shan LUO, Yang XIN, Yi-xian YANG

“…The model and framework of secure multi-party computational geometry were presented based on the existing protocols.The new framework has three dimensions,the math model,the security model and the communication model.Using the new model and framework,a secure two-party line segments intersection protocol based on Paillier homomorphic encryption scheme is proposed.This protocol solves the problem that the existing secure two party intersect-determination schemes of line segments cannot output the exact coordinates of the intersection.The security of the protocol is demonstrated using Goldreich method.The results show that this protocol has better efficiency than the existing ones.In addition,the secure two-party line segments intersection in malicious model is also designed.As an application,a privacy-preserving convex hull intersection protocol is proposed based on the O’Rourke scheme.This application makes up for the gap in privacy-preserving convex hull intersection protocol in the area of secure multi-party computational geometry.…”

Joint optimization of dispersion matrix and 3D constellation for STSK system based on improved genetic algorithm by Xiaoping JIN, Jiayu LIU, Chen JIANG, Qiang GUO

“…Space-time shift keying (STSK) is a modulation scheme used in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) communication systems.It uses a pre-designed dispersion matrix set (DMS) to realize the flexible design of the system between multiplexing and diversity.An improved genetic algorithm (GA) was proposed to assist the joint optimization of DMS and 3D constellations, that is, the DMS and 3D constellations were jointly coded as the chromosome of GA , and the coding gain corresponding to the rank and determinant criterion was adopted as the overall fitness value.Through efficient selection and improved mutation and crossover strategies, DMS and 3D constellations with low bit error rate (BER) can be obtained.At the same time, the symmetry of the 3D constellation was used to greatly reduce the computational complexity of according to the fitness value the coding gain.The theoretical average paired error probability (ABEP) of the 3D STSK scheme was deducted.The simulation results show that, compared with the traditional GA and random search schemes, the improved GA proposed can significantly reduce the complexity of system implementation while ensuring BER performance.…”

A Multicomponent Magnetic Proxy for Solar Activity by Harry P. Warren, Linton E. Floyd, Lisa A. Upton

“…Abstract We present a new, multicomponent magnetic proxy for solar activity derived from full disk magnetograms that can be used in the specification and forecasting of the Sun’s radiative output. To compute this proxy we project Carrington maps, such as the synchronic Carrington maps computed with the Advective Flux Transport (AFT) surface flux transport model, to heliographic cartesian coordinates and determine the total unsigned flux as a function of absolute magnetic flux density. …”
