The Internet architecture has been undergoing a significant refactoring, where the past preeminence of transit providers has been replaced by content providers, which have a ubiquitous presence throughout the world, seeking to improve the user experi...
In wireless ad hoc networks, security and communication challenges are frequently addressed by deploying a trust mechanism. A number of approaches for evaluating trust of ad hoc network nodes have been proposed, including the one that uses neural net...
Current two-stage object detectors extract the local visual features of Regions of Interest (RoIs) for object recognition and bounding-box regression. However, only using local visual features will lose global contextual dependencies, which are helpf...
Nowadays, news coverage implies the existence of video footage and sound, from which arises the need for fast reflexes by media organizations. Social media and mobile journalists assist in fulfilling this requirement, but quick on-site presence is no...
In the knowledge discovery field of the Big Data domain the analysis of geographic positioning and mobility information plays a key role. At the same time, in the Natural Language Processing (NLP) domain pre-trained models such as BERT and word embed...
Cache side channel attacks, as a type of cryptanalysis, seriously threaten the security of the cryptosystem. These attacks continuously monitor the memory addresses associated with the victim’s secret information, which cause frequent memory access o...
Following the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Internet of Space (IoS), we are now approaching IoP (Internet of People), or the Internet of Individuals, with the integration of chips inside people that link to other chips and the Internet. Low latenc...
Since the COVID-19 Pandemic began, there have been several efforts to create new technology to mitigate the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic around the world. One of those efforts is to design a new task force, robots, to deal with fundamental goals s...
Recommendation systems based on convolutional neural network (CNN) have attracted great attention due to their effectiveness in processing unstructured data such as images or audio. However, a huge amount of raw data produced by data crawling and dig...
Due to the arbitrariness of the drone’s shooting angle of view and camera movement and the limited computing power of the drone platform, pedestrian detection in the drone scene poses a greater challenge. This paper proposes a new convolutional...
The past decade has been characterized by the growing volumes of data due to the widespread use of the Internet of Things (IoT) applications, which introduced many challenges for efficient data storage and management. Thus, the efficient indexing and...
Environmental information plays an important role in deep reinforcement learning (DRL). However, many algorithms do not pay much attention to environmental information. In multi-agent reinforcement learning decision-making, because agents need to mak...
In scientific domains such as high-energy particle physics and genomics, the quantity of high-speed data traffic generated may far exceed the storage throughput and be unable to be in time stored in the current node. Cooperating and utilizing multipl...
Although the blockchain technology is gaining a widespread adoption across multiple sectors, its most popular application is in cryptocurrency. The decentralized and anonymous nature of transactions in a cryptocurrency blockchain has attracted a mult...
Advances in the usage of information and communication technologies (ICT) has given rise to the popularity and success of cloud computing. Cloud computing offers advantages and opportunities for business users to migrate and leverage the scalability...
The Internet of connected vehicles (IoCV) has made people more comfortable and safer while driving vehicles. This technology has made it possible to reduce road casualties; however, increased traffic and uncertainties in environments seem to be limit...
Nowadays, 5G networks are emerged and designed to integrate all the achievements of mobile and fixed communication networks, in which it can provide ultra-high data speeds and enable a broad range of new services with new cloud computing structures s...
The application of vehicle-to-everything (V2X) technology has resulted in the traffic environment being different from how it was in the past. In the V2X environment, the information perception ability of the driver–vehicle unit is greatly enha...
The human body generates infrared radiation through the thermal movement of molecules. Based on this phenomenon, infrared images of the human body are often used for monitoring and tracking. Among them, key point location on infrared images of the hu...
To create a safe bicycle infrastructure system, this article develops an intelligent embedded learning system using a combination of deep neural networks. The learning system is used as a case study in the Northumbria region in England’s northe...
Modern AI technologies make use of statistical learners that lead to self-empiricist logic, which, unlike human minds, use learned non-symbolic representations. Nevertheless, it seems that it is not the right way to progress in AI. The structure of s...
While both outdoor and indoor localization methods are flourishing, how to properly marry them to offer pervasive localizability in urban areas remains open. Recently, proposals on indoor–outdoor detection have made the first step towards such...
The leaked IoT botnet source-codes have facilitated the proliferation of different IoT botnet variants, some of which are equipped with new capabilities and may be difficult to detect. Despite the availability of solutions for automated analysis of I...
Deep learning provides new ways for defect detection in automatic optical inspections (AOI). However, the existing deep learning methods require thousands of images of defects to be used for training the algorithms. It limits the usability of these a...
The health sector faces a series of problems generated by patients who miss their scheduled appointments. The main challenge to this problem is to understand the patient’s profile and predict potential absences. The goal of this work is to expl...
Authorship attribution is one of the important fields of natural language processing (NLP). Its popularity is due to the relevance of implementing solutions for information security, as well as copyright protection, various linguistic studies, in par...
Can we really “read the mind in the eyes”? Moreover, can AI assist us in this task? This paper answers these two questions by introducing a machine learning system that predicts personality characteristics of individuals on the basis of t...
When, in 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto envisioned the first distributed database management system that relied on cryptographically secured chain of blocks to store data in an immutable and tamper-resistant manner, his primary use case was the introduction...
Lie detection is considered a concern for everyone in their day-to-day life, given its impact on human interactions. Thus, people normally pay attention to both what their interlocutors are saying and to their visual appearance, including the face, t...
