Secure federated distillation GAN for CIDS in industrial CPS by Junwei LIANG, Geng YANG, Maode MA, Sadiq Muhammad

“…Aiming at the data island problem caused by the imperativeness of confidentiality of sensitive information, a secure and collaborative intrusion detection system (CIDS) for industrial cyber physical systems (CPS) was proposed, called PFD-GAN.Specifically, a novel semi-supervised intrusion detection model was firstly developed by improving external classifier-generative adversarial network (EC-GAN) with Wasserstein distance and label condition, to strengthen the classification performance through the use of synthetic data.Furthermore, local differential privacy (LDP) technology was incorporated into the training process of developed EC-GAN to prevent sensitive information leakage and ensure privacy and security in collaboration.Moreover, a decentralized federated distillation (DFD)-based collaboration was designed, allowing multiple industrial CPS to collectively build a comprehensive intrusion detection system (IDS) to recognize the threats under the entire cyber systems without sharing a uniform template model.Experimental evaluation and theory analysis demonstrate that the proposed PFD-GAN is secure from the threats of privacy leaking and highly effective in detecting various types of attacks on industrial CPS.…”

IgE-based analysis of sensitization and cross-reactivity to yellow mealworm and edible insect allergens before their widespread dietary introduction by Majsiak Emilia, Choina Magdalena, Gromek Weronika, Wykrota Julia, Kozłowska Danuta, Swadźba Jakub, Cukrowska Bożena, Kowal Krzysztof

“…Our analysis showed that sensitisation to TM was most commonly associated with a positive reaction to house dust mites and shrimp tropomyosins. Therefore, we speculate that individuals allergic to shrimp should exercise caution when consuming foods containing TM.…”

Supramolecular modification of sustainable high-molar-mass polymers for improved processing and performance by Daniel Görl, Shuichi Haraguchi, Yevhen Hryshunin, Sophia Thiele, Giorgia Scetta, Alexandre Simula, Matthieu Wendling, Oguzhan Oguz, Nicolas Candau, Torne Tänzer, Marianne Liebi, Christopher J. G. Plummer, Holger Frauenrath

“…The modified materials show a rubbery plateau at temperatures above their melting point, associated with strongly increased melt strength, extraordinary melt extensibility, improved dimensional stability, and accelerated crystallization. These thermomechanical property changes open up otherwise inaccessible processing routes and offer considerable scope for improving solid-state properties, thereby addressing typical shortcomings of sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics.…”
