15A blockchain as a trustworthy and secure decentralized and distributed network has been emerged for many applications such as in banking, finance, insurance, healthcare and business. Recently, many communities in blockchain networks want to deploy machine learning models to get meaningful knowledge from geographically distributed large-scale data owned by each participant. To run a learning model without data centralization, distributed machine learning (DML) for blockchain networks has been stu
Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs)-based gait analysis is a promising and attractive approach for user recognition. Recently, the adoption of deep learning techniques has gained significant performance improvement. However, most existing studies focused on exploiting the spatial information of gait data (using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)) while the temporal part received little attention. In this study, we propose a new multi-model Long Short-term Memory (LSTM) network for learning the gai
Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Gated Recurrent Units (GRU) are a class of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) suitable for sequential data processing. Bidirectional LSTM (BLSTM) enables a better understanding of context by learning the future time steps in a bidirectional manner. Moreover, GRU deploys reset and update gates in the hidden layer, which is computationally more efficient than a conventional LSTM. This paper proposes an efficient network model based on deep BLSTM-GRU for ciphertext cl
Internet of Things (IoT) devices are becoming increasingly ubiquitous in daily life. They are utilized in various sectors like healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation. The main challenges related to IoT devices are the potential for faults to occur and their reliability. In classical IoT fault detection, the client device must upload raw information to the central server for the training model, which can reveal sensitive business information. Blockchain (BC) technology and a fault detectio
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) combine computational and physical elements to enable effective and intelligent control of several applications. However, the increasing connectivity and complexity of CPS introduce new security challenges, making intrusion detection a critical aspect for maintaining the integrity and reliability of these systems. The rise in artificial intelligence (AI) techniques assists in addressing security problems related to CPS environments. Therefore, this study proposes a Q
Federated learning is an innovative machine learning technique that deals with centralized data storage issues while maintaining privacy and security. It involves constructing machine learning models using datasets spread across several data centers, including medical facilities, clinical research facilities, Internet of Things devices, and even mobile devices. The main goal of federated learning is to improve robust models that benefit from the collective knowledge of these disparate datasets w
Information security has become an intrinsic part of data communication. Cryptanalysis using deep learning–based methods to identify weaknesses in ciphers has not been thoroughly studied. Recently, long short-term memory (LSTM) networks have shown promising performance in sequential data processing by modeling the dependencies and data dynamics. Given an encrypted ciphertext sequence and corresponding plaintext, by taking advantage of sequential processing, LSTM can adaptively discover the decry
Strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) has been widely accepted as the “Queen of Fruits”. It has been identified as having high levels of vitamin C and antioxidants that are beneficial for maintaining cardiovascular health and maintaining blood sugar levels. The implementation of advanced techniques like precision agriculture (PA) is crucial for enhancing production compared to conventional farming methods. In recent years, the successful application of deep learning models was represented by co
In this paper, we propose a gait type classification method using various sensors in a smart insole. The measured data are normalized to the unit step of the same length in order to reduce the variation of the speed according to the measurement point and the situation even within the same gait type. From the normalized data of the individual sensors, the discriminant features useful for gait type classification are extracted by using the Null-Space Linear Discriminant Analysis (NLDA), one of the
The recent progress in deep learning has given rise to a non-invasive and effective approach for animal biometrics. These modern techniques allow researchers to track animal individuals on a large-scale image database. Typical approaches are suited to a closed-set recognition problem, which is to identify images of known objects only. However, such approaches are not scalable because they mis-classify images of unknown objects. To recognize the images of unknown objects as ‘unknown’, a framework
<title>Abstract</title> The importance of computing and storage capacity has increased over time, and the importance of data mining in industrial engineering has become more apparent.

We propose a novel transfer learning framework for pathological image analysis, the Response-based Cross-task Knowledge Distillation (RCKD), which improves the performance of the model by pretraining it on a large unlabeled dataset guided by a high-performance teacher model. RCKD first pretrains a student model to predict the nuclei segmentation results of the teacher model for unlabeled pathological images, and then fine-tunes the pretrained model for the downstream tasks, such as organ cancer
