Due to the transformation of the power system, the effective use of flexibility from the distribution system (DS) is becoming crucial for efficient network management. Leveraging this flexibility requires interoperability among stakeholders, including Transmission System Operators (TSOs) and Distribution System Operators (DSOs). However, data privacy concerns among stakeholders present significant challenges for utilizing this flexibility effectively. To address these challenges, we propose a machine learning (ML)-based method in which the technical constraints of the DSs are represented by ML models trained exclusively on non-sensitive data. Using these models, the TSO can solve the optimal power flow (OPF) problem and directly determine the dispatch of flexibility-providing units (FPUs)—in our case, distributed generators (DGs)-in a single round of communication. To achieve this, we introduce a novel neural network (NN) architecture specifically designed to efficiently represent the feasible region of the DSs, ensuring computational effectiveness. Furthermore, we incorporate various PQ charts rather than idealized ones, demonstrating that the proposed method is adaptable to a wide range of FPU characteristics. To assess the effectiveness of the proposed method, we benchmark it against the standard AC-OPF on multiple DSs with meshed connections and multiple points of common coupling (PCCs) with varying voltage magnitudes. The numerical results indicate that the proposed method achieves performant results while prioritizing data privacy. Additionally, since this method directly determines the dispatch of FPUs, it eliminates the need for an additional disaggregation step. By representing the DSs technical constraints through ML models trained exclusively on nonsensitive data, the transfer of sensitive information between stakeholders is prevented. Consequently, even if reverse engineering is applied to these ML models, no sensitive data can be extracted. This allows

As an essential US economic indicator, the S&P500 Index is used to assess the current state of market performance and gauge the economy’s future course. However, stock market index prediction is challenging due to its nonlinearity and inherently volatile character. Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) and their variants are de facto standards for sequence modeling. Recently, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and attention-based networks, such as dilated casual convolutions and Transformers, have also become popular in time series forecasting. In this paper, we report on the design of a Time-Series Mixer (TS-Mixer) architecture based on MLP-Mixer, an all-MLP architecture for time series forecasting. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first implementation of MLP-Mixer-based architecture for sequence modeling. Modern deep learning models are increasingly built to handle univariate time series data. They generally pay attention to analyzing temporal dependencies while ignoring the relationship among features. The proposed architecture is specifically created for multivariate time series forecasting to capture temporal feature interactions while simultaneously learning feature correlations. To accomplish this, the proposed Time-Feature Mixer contains two types of MLP layers: feature mixer and temporal mixer. The feature mixer is applied independently to each data point to capture the correlation among features. In contrast, the temporal mixer extracts temporal dependency (trend, seasonal, cyclical, or random characteristics) of each feature across the whole input sequence. Compared to prevalent neural networks in sequence modeling, TS-Mixer exhibits competitive performance regarding S&P500 Index prediction.

In recent years, cyber security attacks have increased massively. This introduces the need to defend against such attacks. Cyber security threat intelligence has recently been introduced to secure systems against security attacks. Cyber security threat intelligence (CTI) should be fast, trustful, and protect the sender's identity to stop these attacks at the right time. Threat intelligence sharing is vitally important since it is considered an effective way to improve threat understanding. This leads to protecting the assets and preventing the attack vectors. However, there is a paradox between the privacy safeguard needs of threat intelligence sharing; the need to produce complete proper threat intelligence feeds to be shared with the community, and other challenges and needs that are not covered in the traditional CTI. This paper aims to study how Blockchain technology can be incorporated with the CTI to solve the current issues and challenges in the traditional CTI. We collected the latest contributions that use Blockchain to overcome the conventional CTI problems and compared them to raise the reader’s awareness about the different methods used. Also, we mentioned the uncovered areas for each paper to offer a wide range of details and information about different areas that need to be investigated. Furthermore, the prospect challenges of integrating the Blockchain and CTI are discussed.

This study Rasathura explores the emotional dimensions of Sri Lankan music, specifically Sinhala songs, by developing an emotional classification model using both audio features and lyrical analysis. The research addresses the limitations in emotional classification using advanced Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques for Sinhala music. For audio analysis, JAudio was used to extract musical data, and machine learning (ML) techniques, including Random Forest, Sequential Minimal Optimization (SMO), Naive Bayes, Decision Tree, and Logistic Regression, were evaluated for classification. Relief-based and correlation-based attribute selection were utilized to enhance classification accuracy. The SMO algorithm achieved an accuracy of 75.92% using JAudio features, which increased to 79.01% with Relief-based attribute selection. The BERT model (built on XLM-RoBERTa) was used for lyrical analysis, achieving a maximum accuracy of 61.22%. TFIDF, Word2Vec with n-grams, and BERT embeddings were evaluated for feature extraction in lyrical data. The findings could benefit the future music industry by creating personalized music recommendation systems, enhancing music therapy applications, and contributing to preserving cultural heritage through digital music archiving.

Cloud-native applications are designed to utilize cloud computing resources efficiently. These applications automatically scale resources by managing containerized copies of files and creating containers, which are handled through pods in Kubernetes. However, they face challenges due to the dynamic workload associated with automatic scaling and de-scaling in cloud environments. This makes it difficult to obtain accurate monitoring information, particularly with reactive autoscaling. This research presents a proactive autoscaling approach through the proposed InformerAutoScale model, which predicts resource requirements for long sequences in cloud-native applications to enable accurate pod scaling and descaling. Experimental results demonstrate that the InformerAutoScale approach effectively reduces resource waste and manages issues such as under and over-provisioning. The real-world implementation was carried out using Docker Desktop and Kubernetes, with scale or scaled pods allocated based on application requests. Proactive autoscaling achieved a 90.66% improvement in scaling efficiency compared to reactive methods.
