    Abstract Millions of people are connecting and exchanging information on social media platforms, where interpersonal interactions are constantly being shared. However, due to inaccurate or misleading information about the COVID-19 pandemic, social media platforms became the scene of tense debates between believers and doubters. Healthcare professionals and public health agencies also use social media to inform the public about COVID-19 news and updates. However, they occasionally have trouble managing massive pandemic-related rumors and frauds. One reason is that people share and engage, regardless of the information source, by assuming the content is unquestionably true. On Twitter, users use words and phrases… More >

    Abstract Recently, various mobile apps have included more features to improve user convenience. Mobile operating systems load as many apps into memory for faster app launching and execution. The least recently used (LRU)-based termination of cached apps is a widely adopted approach when free space of the main memory is running low. However, the LRU-based cached app termination does not distinguish between frequently or infrequently used apps. The app launch performance degrades if LRU terminates frequently used apps. Recent studies have suggested the potential of using users’ app usage patterns to predict the next app launch and address the limitations of… More >

    Rui Wen1,*, Jie Zhou2, Zhongliang Shen1, Xiaorui Zhang2,3,4, Sunil Kumar Jha5
    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.47, No.1, pp. 187-204, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.037889
    Abstract Convolution Neural Networks (CNN) can quickly diagnose COVID-19 patients by analyzing computed tomography (CT) images of the lung, thereby effectively preventing the spread of COVID-19. However, the existing CNN-based COVID-19 diagnosis models do consider the problem that the lung images of COVID-19 patients in the early stage and incubation period are extremely similar to those of the non-COVID-19 population. Which reduces the model’s classification sensitivity, resulting in a higher probability of the model misdiagnosing COVID-19 patients as non-COVID-19 people. To solve the problem, this paper first attempts to apply triplet loss and center loss to the field of COVID-19 image… More >

    Abstract The traditional recommendation algorithm represented by the collaborative filtering algorithm is the most classical and widely recommended algorithm in the practical industry. Most book recommendation systems also use this algorithm. However, the traditional recommendation algorithm represented by the collaborative filtering algorithm cannot deal with the data sparsity well. This algorithm only uses the shallow feature design of the interaction between readers and books, so it fails to achieve the high-level abstract learning of the relevant attribute features of readers and books, leading to a decline in recommendation performance.

    Abstract Diastasis Recti Abdominis (DRA) is the separation of abdominal recti muscles which occurs in women during their pregnancy and postpartum time. This is because of the stretching of the linea alba, a fibrous connective tissue on the abdominal wall. The Linea Alba is elastic and retracts back after the delivery of the baby. When this tissue gets overstretched, it loses its elasticity and the gap in the abdominals may not be closed leading to DRA. The motive of this research is to analyze the postpartum rehabilitation for signals from Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensors. The conservative treatment for women who… More >

IPv6 needed several protocols like the Address Auto-configuration Scheme and Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMPv6). IPv6 is vulnerable to numerous attacks like Denial of Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) which is one of the most dangerous attacks executed through ICMPv6 messages that impose security and financial implications. Therefore, an Intrusion Detection System (IDS) is a monitoring system… More >

    Abstract Visual motion segmentation (VMS) is an important and key part of many intelligent crowd systems. It can be used to figure out the flow behavior through a crowd and to spot unusual life-threatening incidents like crowd stampedes and crashes, which pose a serious risk to public safety and have resulted in numerous fatalities over the past few decades. Trajectory clustering has become one of the most popular methods in VMS. However, complex data, such as a large number of samples and parameters, makes it difficult for trajectory clustering to work well with accurate motion segmentation results.

    Computer Systems Science and Engineering, Vol.47, No.1, pp. 757-775, 2023, DOI:10.32604/csse.2023.039111
    Abstract Denial of Service (DoS/DDoS) intrusions are damaging cyber-attacks, and their identification is of great interest to the Intrusion Detection System (IDS). Existing IDS are mainly based on Machine Learning (ML) methods including Deep Neural Networks (DNN), but which are rarely hybridized with other techniques. The intrusion data used are generally imbalanced and contain multiple features. Thus, the proposed approach aims to use a DNN-based method to detect DoS/DDoS attacks using CICIDS2017, CSE-CICIDS2018 and CICDDoS 2019 datasets, according to the following key points. a) Three imbalanced CICIDS2017-2018-2019 datasets, including Benign and DoS/DDoS attack classes, are used. b) A new technique based… More >
