In this paper, we investigate joint caching and computing resource reservation for supporting location-aware augmented reality (AR) applications in an edge-assisted two-tier radio access network. We aim at minimizing the caching and computing resource consumption while satisfying the AR service delay requirement. Specifically, to capture the spatio-temporal AR service dynamics, the resource consumption minimization problem is formulated as a long-term stochastic optimization problem. Due to the time-varying service demands and tightly coupled multi-resource reservation decisions, we propose a novel resource reservation algorithm based on the Lyapunov optimization technique to solve the problem. We first transform the original long-term problem into multiple one-shot optimization problems, each of which is then solved by our designed iterative algorithm in an online manner. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can significantly reduce the overall resource consumption compared to benchmark algorithms.
Stress has become one of the mental health adversaries of the COVID-19 pandemic. Several stressors like fear of infection, lockdown, and social distancing are commonly accountable for the stress. The existing stress p...

The increasing rate of attention deficit among students, attributed to social media, has far-reaching consequences on their academic performance. Inattention or lack of attention is a state of absent-mindedness or not paying enough attention to the details. A rich body of literature suggests that it is highly associated with underachievement in the academic context. In particular, students who have been clinically diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD), a neuro-developmental disorder characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity symptoms are more at risk of under-performance and retention, with some leaving school without a terminal degree. In addition to the academic domain, inattention generally impacts the quality of life and future occupations. Research suggests that ADHD is also attributed to societal and unemployment excess costs as well as productivity loss and healthcare expenses which are estimated to be over $14K per adult in the United States (US). Although more than eight million adults were identified with ADHD in the US by 2018, not all inattention cases are associated with ADHD. Inattention could be caused by several other factors such as stress or anxiety and its early detection and timely intervention is critical, especially in the academic domain. There are existing studies that analyze brain signals by Electroencephalogram (EEG) scans to identify individuals who have ADHD. In this study, we developed a Machine learning (ML) pipeline model that is trained on both ADHD and inattention data to determine if a person is having an attention problem. In the first phase of developing the model, we trained a few different classifiers on a 19-channel public EEG dataset of 60 ADHD and 61 non-ADHD participants. Data analysis showed K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) classifier outperformed other classifiers with an accuracy of 89%. While many of the existing papers focus on ADHD data, in this work we expand our model to analyze the

Nowadays, Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) with Federated Learning (FL) framework has become a growing study towards providing a secure energy disaggregation system in smart homes. This study aims at deploying an attention-based aggregation (FedAtt) approach in FL to emphasize agents’ behavioral differences when consuming energy from various appliances. The goal of the proposed technique is to minimize the weighted distance between the parameters of the local model and the global model to better represent each local model’s characteristics. In this paper, we examine two different models for NILM: Short Sequence-to-Point (SS2P) and Variational Auto-Encoder (VAE). Our goal is to evaluate the effectiveness of FedAtt. The evaluation of the framework was carried out using the UK-DALE and REFIT datasets. The obtained results were then compared against centralized approaches of the models as well as FedAvg. Our findings show that FedAtt generates comparable results to the centralized model and FedAvg while improving the stability of FL at different values of added noise to local parameters.

The development of compact and efficient devices has been made possible by the growth of Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) technologies, which has transformed modern electronics. However, there are cautions regarding the security of data, especially when it comes to transmission due to the extensive usage of technology. To address these, this study proposes a modified Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm as a solution for improved security protocol in VLSI systems. The proposed algorithm are intended to support the encryption procedure, increasing stronger production against cryptographic attacks while preserving the system's effectiveness and speed factors that are critical aspects for VLSI applications. Through extensive simulations and testing, the modified AES algorithm demonstrated significant security enhancements the operational efficiency of the VLSI system. The attained outcomes of the proposed work shows that the Modified AES strategy provides a workable technique to protect data in VLSI-based devices while maintaining data communication integrity and confidentiality. The proposed modified AES algorithm demonstrates a significant improvement in performance with a propagation delay of 7 ns, power consumption of 29 mW, and a computational overhead of 62 bits, leading to enhanced efficiency in cryptographic operations. This study highlights that the modified AES algorithm improve security in modern electronic systems and maintain performance.

Explosive based attacks on people and sensitive places in the form of terrorism has become a global challenge that is making organizations such as airports, train station, security agencies and the government to do anything possible to secure the lives of people and some essential infrastructures. Several approaches have been adopted to prevent its occurrence that ranges from the use of animals, analytical means and sensor based approach to manual screaming by human personnel. With the development in the field of Artificial Intelligent, efforts are being made to deploy Sensor base system that leverage of machine learning technology to make the system highly accurate and sensitive in detection of explosive trace within an environment. This study presents the architecture of area base explosive trace detection utilizing deep learning model. The experiment shows the concept of area based explosive trace detection from trace properties of Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen and Hydrogen (CNOH). The deep leaning model recorded an accuracy of 98% on the explosive trace data. The system uses this information to detect the presence of explosion within an area.
