基于Word文档的数据隐藏方法

在分析当前数据隐藏与恢复相关技术研究基础上,参照微软官方最新公布的复合文档存储规范,从利用载体Word文档现有空间中未真正使用部分和适度扩展新空间两条思路出发,设计一种利用Word文档作载体隐藏秘密信息的解决方案,包括在文字、各种嵌入式对象及其相应控制结构数据中隐藏信息。实践表明,隐藏数据后的载体文档可以被正常拷贝和使用电子邮件传送,根据需要隐藏的信息随机选择使用该方案,被隐藏信息更不容易被侦测出来,被二次编辑后被隐藏信息一般不会被破坏,鲁棒性不错,具有一定的实用价值。     

基于平方位置误差下限的优化功率分配方案

在无线传感网络中,节点定位是基于位置的应用基本要求。然而,现多数文献仅关注定位精度,而忽略了能量消耗对定位精度的影响。为此,针对基于接收信号强度RSSI(Received Signal Strength Indicator)定位方案,提出基于平方位置误差下限SPEB(Squared Position Error Bound)的优化功率分配SPEB-OPA(SPEB-Based Optimal Power Allocation)方案,目的在于最小化能量消耗。在SPEB-OPA算法中,将SPEB作为评定定位精度的参数,并推导出SPEB表达式,然后建立优化功率分配的目标函数,并考虑到锚节点位置存在误差。仿真结果表明,提出的SPEB-OPA方案极大地减少了功率消耗。当误差门限T=8时,SPEB-OPA方案的功率消耗比统一功率分配UPA(Uniform Power allocation)方案减少至50%。     

利用曲线拟合对触觉数据的压缩

为减轻离线触觉数据压缩带来的失真变形,提出利用曲线拟合的压缩方法.在假定触觉数据所对应原触觉信号能用分段二次参数曲线表示的前提下,通过反向采样过程来构造触觉数据拟合曲线,该曲线由分段二次曲线组成,在连接处达到切线连续,且每段二次曲线对原触觉信号具有二次多项式逼近精度.为避免保存拟合曲线的所有系数以进一步提高数据减少率,对拟合曲线系数进行了迭代求解,从而只需编码保存部分系数即可解码.实验结果表明,该方法在保持高数据减少率的前提下减轻了压缩失真变形.     

协同过滤技术的改进研究

协同过滤算法应用于个性化推荐系统中取得了巨大成功,它是通过用户项目评分数据,以用户之间或者项目之间相互协作的方式来产生推荐。然而,邻居用户的相似度计算不精确一直是阻碍推荐系统推荐精度进一步提高的主要因素。从提高用户间相似度计算精度出发,提出了一种改进算法,该算法通过考虑不同特征、加强平均值影响、惩罚热门项目的比重,对用户的相似度计算方法进行改进,以期生成更加合理的邻居用户集,最后,根据评分预测公式进行预测,最终产生推荐。在MovieLens数据集上的实验表明,改进算法计算用户间的相似度更加精确,推荐算法的预测精确度有了显著提高。     

Strong Convergence Analysis of Batch Gradient-Based Learning Algorithm for Training Pi-Sigma Network Based on TSK Fuzzy Models

By combining of the benefits of high-order network and TSK (Tagaki-Sugeno-Kang) inference system, Pi-Sigma network is capable to dispose with the nonlinear problems much more effectively, which means it has a compacter construction, and quicker computational speed. The aim of this paper is to present a gradient-based learning method for Pi-Sigma network to train TSK fuzzy inference system. Moreover, some strong convergence results are established based on the weak convergence outcomes, which indicates that the sequence of weighted fuzzy parameters gets to a fixed point. Simulation results show the modified learning algorithm is effective to support the theoretical results.     

Exploring the costs of technical debt management – a case study

Technical debt is a metaphor for delayed software maintenance tasks. Incurring technical debt may bring short-term benefits to a project, but such benefits are often achieved at the cost of extra work in future, analogous to paying interest on the debt. Currently technical debt is managed implicitly, if at all. However, on large systems, it is too easy to lose track of delayed tasks or to misunderstand their impact. Therefore, we have proposed a new approach to managing technical debt, which we believe to be helpful for software managers to make informed decisions. In this study we explored the costs of the new approach by tracking the technical debt management activities in an on-going software project. The results from the study provided insights into the impact of technical debt management on software projects. In particular, we found that there is a significant start-up cost when beginning to track and monitor technical debt, but the cost of ongoing management soon declines to very reasonable levels.
