Steganalysis of LSB matching using differences between nonadjacent pixels

Abstract: This paper models the messages embedded by spatial least significant bit (LSB) matching as independent noises to the cover image, and reveals that the histogram of the differences between pixel gray values is smoothed by the stego bits despite a large distance between the pixels Using the characteristic function of difference histogram (DHCF), we prove that the center of mass of DHCF (DHCF COM) decreases after messages are embedded Accordingly, the DHCF COMs are calculated as distinguishing features from the pixel pairs with different distances The features are calibrated with an image generated by average operation, and then used to train a support vector machine (SVM) classifier The experimental results prove that the features extracted from the differences between nonadjacent pixels can help to tackle LSB matching as well

Deep Matrix Factorization With Implicit Feedback Embedding for Recommendation System

Abstract: Automatic recommendation has become an increasingly relevant problem to industries, which allows users to discover new items that match their tastes and enables the system to target items to the right users. In this paper, we propose a deep learning (DL) based collaborative filtering framework, namely, deep matrix factorization (DMF), which can integrate any kind of side information effectively and handily. In DMF, two feature transforming functions are built to directly generate latent factors of users and items from various input information. As for the implicit feedback that is commonly used as input of recommendation algorithms, implicit feedback embedding (IFE) is proposed. IFE converts the high-dimensional and sparse implicit feedback information into a low-dimensional real-valued vector retaining primary features. Using IFE could reduce the scale of model parameters conspicuously and increase model training efficiency. Experimental results on five public databases indicate that the proposed method performs better than the state-of-the-art DL-based recommendation algorithms on both accuracy and training efficiency in terms of quantitative assessments.

Data Security and Privacy Protection for Cloud Storage: A Survey

Abstract: The new development trends including Internet of Things (IoT), smart city, enterprises digital transformation and world's digital economy are at the top of the tide. The continuous growth of data storage pressure drives the rapid development of the entire storage market on account of massive data generated. By providing data storage and management, cloud storage system becomes an indispensable part of the new era. Currently, the governments, enterprises and individual users are actively migrating their data to the cloud. Such a huge amount of data can create magnanimous wealth. However, this increases the possible risk, for instance, unauthorized access, data leakage, sensitive information disclosure and privacy disclosure. Although there are some studies on data security and privacy protection, there is still a lack of systematic surveys on the subject in cloud storage system. In this paper, we make a comprehensive review of the literatures on data security and privacy issues, data encryption technology, and applicable countermeasures in cloud storage system. Specifically, we first make an overview of cloud storage, including definition, classification, architecture and applications. Secondly, we give a detailed analysis on challenges and requirements of data security and privacy protection in cloud storage system. Thirdly, data encryption technologies and protection methods are summarized. Finally, we discuss several open research topics of data security for cloud storage.

Of Theory and Practice

Abstract: Much has been written about theory and practice in the law, and the tension between practitioners and theorists. Judges do not cite theoretical articles often; they rarely "apply" theories to particular cases. These arguments are not revisited. Instead the Essay explores the working and interaction of theory and practice, practitioners and theorists. The Essay starts with a story about solving a legal issue using our intellectual tools - theory, practice, and their progenies: experience and "gut." Next the Essay elaborates on the nature of theory, practice, experience and "gut." The third part of the Essay discusses theories that are helpful to practitioners and those that are less helpful. The Essay concludes that practitioners theorize, and theorists practice. They use these intellectual tools differently because the goals and orientations of theorists and practitioners, and the constraints under which they act, differ. Theory, practice, experience and "gut" help us think, remember, decide and create. They complement each other like the two sides of the same coin: distinct but inseparable.
