The CPU usage cost of IoT devices to process information security tasks is large. In the present paper, we study a parallel implementation of chaos neural networks for an embedded GPU using the Open Computing Language (OpenCL). We evaluate this parallel implementation, and the results indicate that it can extract a pseudo-random number series at high speed and with low CPU usage. This implementation is remarkably faster than the implementation in the CPU and is approximately 49% faster than AES in counter mode. The rate of pseudo-random number generation is higher than 2.1 Gbps when using 100 compute units of a GPU. Applying a stream cipher is sufficient even for Internet communication. Extracted pseudo-random number series are independent, have fine randomness properties, and can merge into one series applied to a stream cipher.","PeriodicalId":156538,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th International Conference on Awareness Science and Technology (iCAST)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124757953","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}

These driving support systems are equipped with functions for avoiding various hazards when the driver drives the vehicle, reducing the risk of causing an accident. In this research, we focus on the time series data of the driving behaviour of the driver, and based on these data, experiments aiming at development of the dangerous driving detection system due to cognitive distraction of the driver have been conducted. The driving behaviour data have been collected from driving simulator which contain driver’s actions mainly steering, accelerator and foot brake operations. It has been observed that the driving behaviour of each driver changes while driving in the state of distraction from while driving attentively and by analyzing these changes, the driver’s distraction from the normal state can be detected. The objective of this paper is to find the effective features for detection of distracted driving of specific driver in real time (specific short intervals). From the collected data of driving behaviour of multiple subjects, static feature based driving model and dynamic feature based driving model for individual drivers and all drivers for attentive driving and distracted driving have been developed. It can be shown from the results that distracted driving can be identified for individual in real time with stable accuracy using dynamic feature based models.","PeriodicalId":156538,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th International Conference on Awareness Science and Technology (iCAST)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130161170","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}

In this paper, we study the misinformation containment problem in OSN. Given a snapshot of the OSN with a set of misinformed nodes, and a budget in terms of maximum number of seed nodes, the problem is to select the seed nodes, referred here as the beacon nodes, to plant the correct information, to minimize and eventually eradicate the misinformation at the earliest. We leverage the community structure of the OSN to select the beacon nodes, prioritizing the Community Boundary Nodes. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to exploit the topology of the OSN to combat misinformation spread. A modified form of Independent Cascade Model is followed to study the adversarial propagation of both misinformation and the correct information. Simulation on real data set shows that the proposed algorithm outperforms earlier algorithm [1] significantly in terms of maximum (average) infected time and the point of decline.","PeriodicalId":156538,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th International Conference on Awareness Science and Technology (iCAST)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129931806","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}

Its applications include machine translation, text analysis, computational linguistics, etc. In most cases, classification of sentiment is done into two or three classes. But in some situations, for example rating a product from Amazon, there are multiple classes. One major challenge in such tasks is the class imbalance which reduces the accuracy by making the model biased. To deal with this problem, we use oversampling to reduce the class imbalance of the dataset before training the model. In this research work, first we use variations of recurrent neural networks, such as simple RNN, GRU, LSTM and Bidirectional LSTM, to find out which model performs the best in multi-class classification of sentiment. Then, we use that model to understand the effect of oversampling a dataset before using it to train a model.","PeriodicalId":156538,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th International Conference on Awareness Science and Technology (iCAST)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129894825","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}

Therefore, in addition to the segmentation method using fully convolutional neural networks, we performed an automatic extraction of only the left atrial appendage region using mini-batch and adversarial training. This method was applied to heart CT images made with a contrast medium. With this method, it becomes possible to automatically obtain information necessary for preoperative planning support of left atrial appendage closure from heart CT images.","PeriodicalId":156538,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th International Conference on Awareness Science and Technology (iCAST)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127499204","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}

Our new approach combines preprocessing, Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) as a feature extraction method, followed by Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) as a classification method. Preprocessing is conducted by manually cropping on the knee joint with dimensions of 400 x 100 pixels. The public dataset used to evaluate our approach is the Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) with very promising results from the existing approach where this dataset has information about the KL grade assessment for both knees (right and left). OAI is a multicenter and prospective observational study of knee OA. The purpose of this dataset is to develop public domain research resources to facilitate scientific evaluation of biomarkers for OA as a potential replacement endpoint for disease development. We have experimented by using three-fold cross-validation, where the first 2/3 data becomes the training data, while the last 1/3 data work as the testing data. Those groups data are being rotated with no overlap. Obtained results demonstrate that the mean accuracy is 75.28 %, and the mean loss function using cross-entropy is 0.09. These results outperform the deep learning methods that have been implemented before.","PeriodicalId":156538,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th International Conference on Awareness Science and Technology (iCAST)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125286001","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}

However, most studies until now have been focusing on traditional images and only a few focused on omnidirectional images. Unlike in the case of traditional images, the users can only view a part of 360-degree images at a time, and thus tend to focus more on specific regions of the image. This makes predicting quality scores for omnidirectional images a challenging task since most existing models for traditional images usually treat all regions of the image equally. In this paper, we propose an omnidirectional image quality assessment model based on deep learning. This model focuses on learning the features of the middle region of input images. The model first automatically predicts the quality scores for patches sampled from the input image. The quality score of the image will then be calculated by weighted averaging of the patch quality scores based on their positions. Experimental results show that the proposed model provides very promising accuracy for predicting quality scores of omnidirectional images.","PeriodicalId":156538,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th International Conference on Awareness Science and Technology (iCAST)","volume":"204 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114660687","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}

Therefore, in this study, we verify the effectiveness of the proposed system when varying the users participating in each evaluation for each generation. In the experiment, we employ two types of situations as assumed real environments. The first situation changes the number of users evaluating the designs at each generation. The second situation employs various users from the predefined population to evaluate the designs at each generation.

This has often led to poor uninformed decisions being made with outcomes which do not necessarily match needs. Similarly from the grassroots level, it has been challenging to give opinions that reach the governing authorities (decision-making organs). The government consequently sets targets geared towards addressing societal concerns, but which do not often achieve desired results where such government endeavors are not in harmony with societal needs. With public opinions being heard and given consideration, societal needs can be better known and priorities set to address these concerns. This paper therefore presents a priority-based voting model for governments to collect public opinion data that bring suggestions to boost their endeavors in the right direction using crowdsourcing and big data analytics.","PeriodicalId":156538,"journal":{"name":"2019 IEEE 10th International Conference on Awareness Science and Technology (iCAST)","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129731511","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}
