Securing such a complex ecosystem is a challenging task and has recently attracted various research efforts in different areas including, threat management, system hardening, trust management and communication security. However, the integration and validation of such targeted maritime transport security services is a complex task that has its own challenges. In this paper we present the preliminary results of the maritime transport security services demonstrator, developed under the CyberSecurityForEurope (CS4EU) pilot project. We have set up a demonstrator to integrate, extend and validate four maritime-specific security services, covering risk and threat management, system hardening, trust management and secure communications. Our goal is to enhance the provisioning of these services and to identify possible research and implementation gaps.","PeriodicalId":144611,"journal":{"name":"2021 Thirteenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3-2021)","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121022765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since then, quantum communication has evolved to an astonishing extent. Ultra-high-speed internet, computational power, optimization, and security have paved the way for innumerable possibilities ahead. This survey intends to investigate the concepts and applications of quantum communication. In this review article, we try to give an idea of quantum communication background by shedding light on polarization and entanglement, following which, we give a brief survey of its applications such as quantum teleportation, quantum key distribution, secure direct communication, and quantum memories.

An effective and fast computational method to diagnose ETB from Transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) images is of great importance to the community. The objective of this paper is to obtain an optimal subset of features for an effective and discriminative analysis of TVUS images for identifying ETB. The TVUS images from different medical centers in India have been collected under expert supervision from female patients. Texture and Morphological features effectively capture the observations made by the experts for identifying the problem in hand. Therefore a fusion framework model is proposed where the extracted image features are fused and an optimal subset of features is obtained for identification. Multiresolution transformation of ill-defined TVUS images highlights the directional, multi- scale spectral textural features. Therefore, to obtain discriminatory textural features, images are transformed using Non-Subsampled Contourlet Transformation (NSCT) before feature extraction. Experimental results of the fusion model for classification show significant improvements and prove to be more efficient. The proposed methodology records an F-score of 0.845 with a sensitivity score of 0.818 for the dataset available. A feature reduction of 64.5% is attained for the classification of the dataset after feature selection.","PeriodicalId":144611,"journal":{"name":"2021 Thirteenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3-2021)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124504802","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although there are researches the address the problem of generating faces, they do so by using a facial image as a base and changing the required attributes. To solve this problem, we make CNN models to learn a classifier that can predict these features (1 feature per model) and output their labels. Labels are the enumerated value each attribute can take. Then these models are combined into one model to generate a dataset that maps the above 6 facial features to each image. This prepared dataset is then used to train the final CNN model that learns to generate a 200 × 200 × 3 matrix using a 6 × 1 matrix as input. The output matrix represents the resolution of the image with 3 channels namely, Red, Green and Blue. This 3D array when plotted gives the desired image. The 6 × 1 matrix represents the six labels. To improve the output, the final CNN model is changed and an Auto-encoder and decoder are used. Also, instead of 6 × 1 input array, 55 × 1 input array is used. This is first trained to regenerate images from an input image. The decoder from this trained model is then used for transfer learning. The decoder is retrained to learn the features specified by the 55 × 1 input matrix. Finally, this decoder is used to generate the desired images of size 150 × 150 × 3 using the 55 × 1 input matrix.","PeriodicalId":144611,"journal":{"name":"2021 Thirteenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3-2021)","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115306390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Generally speaking, detecting violence in a crowded locality, via computational approaches, is challenging owing to rapid movements, overlapping characteristics, obstructed scenery, and scattered backgrounds. Fortunately, Deep Learning techniques can detect anomalies to a certain extent. Furthermore, their popularity, as a paradigm to detect violence, is growing at a tremendous pace. The aim of such approaches is to develop a method that recognizes violence and evokes an alarm so that immediate assistance can be provided. This paper is aong the same line of thought. This article presents a Convolution Neural Network (CNN) and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) based approach for violence detection by learning the detailed features in videos.

Alzheimer’s, a neurodegenerative disorder, is the leading cause of dementia. One of the many symptoms of Alzheimer’s Dementia is the inability to speak and understand language clearly. The last decade has seen a surge in the research done in Alzheimer’s Dementia detection using Linguistics and acoustic features. This paper takes up the Alzheimer’s Dementia classification task of ADReSS INTERSPEECH-2020 challenge, ”Alzheimer’s Dementia Recognition through Spontaneous Speech: The ADReSS Challenge”. It uses eight different acoustic features to find the attributes in the human speech production system (vocal track and excitation source) affected by Alzheimer’s Dementia. In this study, the Alzheimer’s dementia classification is performed using five different Machine Learning models using ADReSS INTERSPEECH-2020 challenge dataset. Since most of the studies in the previous literature have used linguistic features successfully for Alzheimer’s dementia classification, the current study also demonstrates the performance of the BERT model for the dementia classification task. The maximum accuracy obtained by the acoustic feature is 64.5%, and the BERT Model provides a classification accuracy of 79.1% over the test dataset. Finally, the score-level fusion of the acoustic model with the BERT Model shows an improvement of 6.1% classification accuracy over the BERT Model, which indicates the complementary nature of acoustic features to linguistic features.","PeriodicalId":144611,"journal":{"name":"2021 Thirteenth International Conference on Contemporary Computing (IC3-2021)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130635995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
