The emergence of hyperspectral remote sensing has greatly promoted the development of the remote sensing technology. Endmember extraction is an important task in hyperspectral data processing. Pixel purity index (PPI)[1] algorithm has been widely used for endmember extraction in hyperspectral images. With the development of hyperspectral sensors, the resolution of hyperspectral images increases and the traditional hyperspectral processing algorithm is highly time consuming as its precision increases asymptotically. In order to process massive hyperspectral data efficiently, this paper proposes a distributed parallel implementation of PPI algorithm (PPI_DP) on cloud computing architecture. The realization of the proposed method using Spark framework and MapReduce model is described and evaluated. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method can effectively extract the endmembers of large quantity hyperspectral data.

Several works in the literature so far have been focused on deterministic point forecasts, which, usually, indicates the conditional mean of future observations. An increasing need for generating the entire conditional distribution of future observations has been required for the new generation of soft sensors. This study aims the probabilistic forecasts, reporting the use of a hybrid fuzzy forecasting model applied in two different forecasting problems. Our adapted model is applied to predict the rain of the city of Vitoria, in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil. Real data from a wind farm, provided by the Irish EirGrid institute, was used for analyzing the proposal over a real time series with high fluctuations. Due to the stochasticity of the the hybrid model, which is calibrated through the use of an evolutionary metaheuristic, we adapted it in order to generate future using quantile regression. Computational experiments indicated the ability of the model in finding useful probabilistic quantiles, which were flexible enough in order to limit the lower and upper bounds of the historical datasets. While the probabilistic quantiles suggested the probability of rain and its magnitude, they were also able to predict expected ranges of the amount of energy generated from the wind farm.

In this paper, we use witness-function to capture attack scenarios in cryptographic protocols. A witness-function is a protocol-dependent metric that attributes a reliable security level to every atomic message. We use these functions to prove the protocol correctness with respect to secrecy by proving that the security level of every atomic message never decreases throughout all consecutive receiving and sending steps of the protocol. In this paper, we analyze the defective variant of the Otway-Rees protocol and we demonstrate that the use of witness-functions can be a key element in tracing a well-known type flaw that this protocol involves.
Many networks can be modeled as collections of subsystems with complex internal dynamics, which are dynamically coupled according to a weighted digraph. This article characterizes the input-output behavior of a networ...

Highly integrated neural sensing microsystems are crucial to capture accurate signals for brain function investigations. In this paper, a 256-channel/25 mm2 neural sensing microsystem is presented based on through-silicon-via (TSV) 2.5D integration. This microsystem composes of dissolvable μ-needles, TSV-embedded μ-probes, 256-channel neural amplifiers, 11-bit area-power-efficient SAR ADCs and serializers. Based on the dissolvable μ-needles and TSV 2.5D integration, this microsystem can detect 256 ECoG/LFP signals within the small area of 5mm × 5mm. Additionally, the neural amplifier realizes 57.8dB gain with only 9.8μW for each channel, and the 9.7-bit ENOB of the SAR ADC at 32kS/s can be achieved with 0.42μW and 0.036 mm2. The overall power of this microsystem is only 3.79mW for 256-channel neural sensing.

This paper presents a distributed world model that is able to adapt to changes in the Quality of Service (QoS) of the communication layer by online reconfiguration of perception algorithms. The approach consists of (a) a mechanism for storage, exchange and processing of world model data and (b) a feedback loop that incorporates reasoning techniques to adapt to QoS changes immediately. The latter introduces a Level of Detail (LoD) metric based on a spatial resolution in order to infer an upper bound for the amount of data that can be transmitted without violating an application specific transmission delay. Experiments have been performed with Octree-based subsampling techniques applied to data originating from a RGB-D camera using simulated and real-world data sets for timevarying bandwidth values as employed QoS measure.

The Support Vector Machines (SVMs) dual formulation has a non-separable structure that makes the design of a convergent distributed algorithm a very difficult task. Recently some separable and distributable reformulations of the SVM training problem have been obtained by fixing one primal variable. While this strategy seems effective for some applications, in certain cases it could be weak since it drastically reduces the overall final performance. In this work we present the first fully distributable algorithm for SVMs training that globally converges to a solution of the original (non-separable) SVMs dual formulation. Besides a detailed convergence analysis, we provide a simple demonstrative example showing the advantages of the original SVMs dual formulation with respect to the weak separable one and highlights the practical effectiveness of our method. We report further tests to show practical convergence of the proposed method on real-world datasets.
