A statistical model for undecidable viral detection

This paper presents a statistical model of the malware detection problem. Where Chess and White (An undetectable computer virus. In: Virus Bulletin Conference, 2000) just partially addressed this issue and gave only existence results, we give here constructive results of undetectable malware. We show that any existing detection techniques can be modelled by one or more statistical tests. Consequently, the concepts of false positive and non detection are precisely defined. The concept of test simulability is then presented and enables us to gives constructive results how undetectable malware could be developped by an attacker. Practical applications of this statistical model are proposed. Finally, we give a statistical variant of Cohen’s undecidability results of virus detection.     

改进的基于统计模型的前景检测方法

针对基于统计模型的前景检测方法进行改进:一方面,背景模型中记录特征向量属于背景的历史最大概率,在当前帧像素点特征向量与背景模型中已有特征向量匹配时,利用历史最大概率提高其更新速度,使其尽快融入背景;另一方面,对利用贝叶斯决策规则检测的前景目标,剔除其轮廓信息后与背景的空间特征进行匹配,减少阴影对前景检测的影响。实验结果表明,与MoG方法和Li的统计模型方法的前景检测相比,该方法在阴影剔除以及大目标物体遮挡背景恢复等方面都有明显改进。

Identification of piecewise affine systems based on statistical clustering technique

This paper is concerned with the identification of a class of piecewise affine systems called a piecewise affine autoregressive exogenous (PWARX) model. The PWARX model is composed of ARX sub-models each of which corresponds to a polyhedral region of the regression space. Under the temporary assumption that the number of sub-models is known a priori, the input-output data are collected into several clusters by using a statistical clustering algorithm. We utilize support vector classifiers to estimate the boundary hyperplane between two adjacent regions in the regression space. In each cluster, the parameter vector of the sub-model is obtained by the least squares method. It turns out that the present statistical clustering approach enables us to estimate the number of sub-models based on the information criteria such as CAIC and MDL. The estimate of the number of sub-models is performed by applying the identification procedure several times to the same data set, after having fixed the number of sub-models to different values. Finally, we verify the applicability of the present identification method through a numerical example of a Hammerstein model.

基于统计质量控制的测距故障检测方法

卫星导航接收机在城区环境使用时,多径信号的存在使得码自相关函数发生畸变,从而导致测距结果与真实距离间出现较大偏差。现有的接收机基带多径消除算法复杂度高,实现较为困难。而接收机自主正直性监测(RAIM)算法的故障检测能力有限,难以同时检测多个测距故障。提出使用统计质量控制方法来实现对测距故障的检测,根据质量控制图的输出结果调整测距信息在定位解算中的权重,从而提高定位精度。该方法能够对每颗卫星的码跟踪性能进行单独监测,算法实现的复杂度低。仿真结果表明:使用该方法能够有效指示多径信号导致的测距误差,从而为改善城区环境下的定位精度提供了新思路。     

Fast parametric curves detection based on statistical hypotheses estimation

We propose a new fast and reliable algorithm of parametric curves detection on images. In our approach as well as in many other approaches based on the Hough transform, we analyze the set of points obtained by an edge detector. Edge points are collected into chains of connected pixels, and then they are analyzed as a whole and piecemeal. At first we use randomized methods to reject unsuitable models. It gives us a high performance. Model parameters of fragments remained after randomized methods are estimated by the least squares method and the reliability of the hypothesis is estimated by the chi-square criterion. Then if the chi square criterion shows higher reliability for the merged similar models, we merge the obtained models.     

A neighborhood-characteristic-based detection model for statistical fragile watermarking with localization

Statistical fragile watermarking is capable of accurately locating tampered pixels and resisting the collage attack. However, the constraint of the tamper ratio may be too stringent. This paper proposes a neighborhood characteristic based detection model for statistical fragile watermarking to lift the constraints of the tampered area from 4% to 14% of the host image. The neighborhood characteristic is used to effectively decrease the probability of false rejection, while the low probability of false acceptance is guaranteed by selecting proper threshold. The tamper detection performance of the proposed detection model is analytical analyzed in the different conditions. Analytical and experimental results demonstrate that the neighborhood characteristic based detection model effectively reduce the total number of false decisions and detect the tampered pixels with high probability.

Corner based statistical modelling in vehicle detection under various condition for traffic surveillance

The paper proposes a robust approach to detect and track the vehicle under various climatic conditions and in the presence of camera shake, shadows, sudden illumination change. Corners have significant features to detect and track the vehicle. Corner points from the vehicular region are segmented from non - vehicular regions based on the statistical background corner point model. The foreground corner points that belong to the vehicular region are grouped using Euclidean distance as they are closely associated with each other. The flickering effects caused by the corner detection algorithm are handled by tracking these corner points. The detection accuracy of the algorithm is 94.32%.

A novel technique for image steganography based on a high payload method and edge detection

Image steganography has received a lot of attention during the last decade due to the lowering of the cost of storage media, which has allowed for wide use of a large number of images. We present a novel technique for image steganography which belongs to techniques taking advantage of sharp areas in images in order to hide a large amount of data. Specifically, the technique is based on the edges present in an image. A hybrid edge detector is used for this purpose. Moreover, a high payload technique for color images is exploited. These two techniques are combined in order to produce a new steganographic algorithm. Experimental results show that the new method achieves a higher peak signal to noise ratio for the same number of bits per pixel of embedded image.

A minimum-cost thresholding technique for unsupervised change detection

We propose an automatic thresholding technique for difference images in unsupervised change detection. Such a technique takes into account the different costs that may be associated with commission and omission errors in the selection of the decision threshold. This allows the generation of maps in which the overall change-detection cost is minimized, i.e. the more critical kind of error is reduced according to end-user requirements.
