Plausible Deniable Medical Image Encryption by Large Language Models and Reversible Content-Aware Strategy
No full text: There is a rising concern about healthcare system security, where data loss could bring lots of damages to patients and hospitals. As a promising encryption method for medical images, DNA encoding own characteristics of high speed, parallelism computation, minimal storage, and unbreakable cryptosystems. Inspired by the idea of involving Large Language Models(LLMs) to improve DNA encoding, we propose a medical image encryption method with LLM-enhanced DNA encoding, which consists of LLM enhancing module and content-aware permutation&diffusion module. Regarding medical images generally have plain backgrounds with low-entropy pixels, the first module compresses pixels into highly compact signals with features of probabilistic varying and plausibly deniability, serving as another LLM-based layer of defense against privacy breaches before DNA encoding. The second module not only adds permutation by randomly sampling from a redundant correlation between adjacent pixels to break the internal links between pixels but also performs a DNAbased diffusion process to greatly increase the complexity of cracking. Experiments on ChestXray-14, COVID-CT and fcon-1000 datasets show that the proposed method outperforms all comparative methods in sensitivity, correlation and entropy
CDT-CAD: Context-Aware Deformable Transformers for End-to-End Chest Abnormality Detection on X-Ray Images
No full text: Deep learning methods have achieved great success in medical image analysis domain. However, most of them suffer from slow convergency and high computing cost, which prevents their further widely usage in practical scenarios. Moreover, it has been proved that exploring and embedding context knowledge in deep network can significantly improve accuracy. To emphasize these tips, we present CDT-CAD, i.e., context-aware deformable transformers for end-to-end chest abnormality detection on X-Ray images. CDT-CAD firstly constructs an iterative context-aware feature extractor, which not only enlarges receptive fields to encode multi-scale context information via dilated context encoding blocks, but also captures unique and scalable feature variation patterns in wavelet frequency domain via frequency pooling blocks. Afterwards, a deformable transformer detector on the extracted context features is built to accurately classify disease categories and locate regions, where a small set of key points are sampled, thus leading the detector to focus on informative feature subspace and accelerate convergence speed. Through comparative experiments on Vinbig Chest and Chest Det 10 Datasets, CDT-CAD demonstrates its effectiveness in recognizing chest abnormities and outperforms 1.4% and 6.0% than the existing methods in AP50 and AR on VinBig dateset, and 0.9% and 2.1% on Chest Det-10 dataset, respectively
Deep Learning and Edge Computing for Internet of Things
No full textThe evolution of 5G and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies is leading to ubiquitous connections between humans and their environment, such as autopilot transportation, mobile e-commerce, unmanned vehicles, and healthcare applications, bringing revolutionary changes to our daily lives. Moreover, the computing environment results in the requirement for support of an increasing range of functionality: multi-sensory data processing and analysis, complex systems control strategies, and, ultimately, artificial intelligence. After several years of development, edge computing for deep learning has shown incomparable practical value in the IoT environment. Pushing computing resources to the edge in closer proximity to devices enables low-latency service delivery for both safety and applications. This Special Issue, “Deep Learning and Edge Computing for Internet of Things”, addresses existing awareness of the surrounding environment and support for services in the advanced development of smart scheduling, privacy protection, and environment-aware ability globally. It includes eleven peer-reviewed papers that focus on deep learning and edge computing for the Internet of Things
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Full text linkWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
