The growing popularity of the Android platform makes it a target of malware authors. The effective identification of such malware is an ongoing challenge. Several methods using machine learning have been proposed to prevent this threat. These methods are usually conventionally evaluated without considering the extent of performance over time. Given the evolving nature of both malware and benign apps, conventional evaluation may lack information. To imitate reality, this study compares the longitudinal performance of different machine learning models, using different strategies that combine permissions and API calls as features extracted through static analysis. Thus, to determine which strategy of features on which classifier are most effective to characterize malware for building a robust malware detector. To achieve this goal, on the one hand, we use a large real-world app set consisting of 100K (50k benign, 50k malware) apps date-labeled, collected across ten years, first seen between 2013 and 2022. On the other hand, each feature's strategy is fed into five classifiers (i.e., SVM, RF, LR, DT, and ANN), using old apps for the training and new apps for the evaluation. Among the assessed machine learning models, the SVM achieves the most promising results over time by employing the combination strategy of the high difference usage of API calls and permissions.

Path planning improves the performance and robustness of vision-based robot control in unstructured environments. Visual servo path planning usually focuses only on the path of the camera in the Cartesian space or the path of the feature points in the image space, which means that the collision between robots and obstacles in the workspace cannot be avoided. This paper proposes a vision-based potential field path planning method for robot manipulators with field-of-view constraints in the image space and obstacle avoidance in the Cartesian space. A hybrid potential field function is proposed to integrate Fo V limits in the image space and obstacle avoidance in the Cartesian space. A probability-based search strategy is presented for path planning to avoid oscillation caused by gradient descent. The proposed method is applied to a collaborative robot with 7 degrees of freedom equipped with an eye-in-hand camera. Experiments in two different environments have verified the superiority of the proposed method regarding spanned image areas, camera path lengths, iteration times, and obstacle avoidance compared to the classical gradient descent-based method.

Non-Binary Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) codes have gained significant attention due to their remarkable error correction capabilities in various communication systems. Decoding algorithms play a pivotal role in realizing the potential of non-binary LDPC codes. This paper provides a comprehensive review and analysis of non-binary LDPC decoding algorithms, focusing on their efficiency, complexity, and performance. Furthermore, recent advancements and innovations in non-binary LDPC decoding algorithms are discussed, such as improved message passing strategies, layered decoding techniques, and adaptive algorithms. The review also highlights challenges and open research directions in non-binary LDPC decoding, such as mitigating error floors, reducing decoding complexity, and integrating with emerging communication technologies. Finally, the paper draws conclusions on the current state of non-binary LDPC decoding algorithms, underscoring their promising applications in wireless communication, visible light communication (VLC), and power line communication (PLC). Simulation results demonstrate a marked improvement in bit error rate performance for both VLC and PLC systems, highlighting the practical potential of these advanced decoding techniques.

Additive manufacturing has become a promising method for the fabrication of inexpensive, green, flexible electronics. Printed electronics on low-temperature substrates like paper are very appealing for the flexible hybrid electronics market for their use in disposable and biocompatible electronic applications and in areas like packaging, wearables, and consumer electronics. Plasma-jet printing uses a dielectric barrier discharge plasma to focus aerosolized nanoparticles onto a target substrate. The same plasma can be used to change the properties of the printed material and even sinter in situ. The technology can also be utilized in space and microgravity environments since the plasma-assisted deposition is independent of gravity. In this work, we show plasma voltage effect on deposition of gold nanoparticles and direct printing of flexible, conductive gold structures onto low-temperature paper substrates without the need for thermal or photonic post-processing. The effects of plasma parameters on the conductivity and flexible reliability of the printed films are studied, and a paper-based LED electrode is demonstrated.

In this paper, we consider the design of an energy efficient collaborative federated learning (CFL) methodology where devices exchange their local FL parameters with a subset of their neighbors without reliance on a parameter server. In the considered model, mobile devices implement the designed CFL to train their local FL models using their own datasets over a realistic wireless network. Due to the limited wireless resources and user movements, each device may not be able to transmit its FL parameters with all neighboring devices. Therefore, each device must select a subset of devices to share its FL parameters and optimize the transmit power. This problem is formulated as an optimization problem, whose goal is to minimize CFL training energy consumption while satisfying the delay and CFL training loss requirements. To solve this problem, a two-stage solution is proposed. At the first stage, a graph neural network (GNN) based algorithm is proposed, which enables each device to individually determine the subset of devices to transmit FL parameters using its neighboring devices' location and connection information. Compared to standard iterative algorithms that need to iteratively optimize device connections and transmit power, the proposed GNN based method can directly obtain the optimal device connections without iterative optimization. Given the optimal device connections, at the second stage, each device can directly obtain the optimal transmit power. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can decrease energy consumption by up to 46% compared to the algorithm where each device will directly connect to its first and second nearest neighbors.
