Hidden moving target defense (HMTD) is a proactive strategy that kept hidden from attackers by changing the reactance of transmission lines to thwart false data injection (FDI) attacks. However, alert with strong capabilities pose additional risks HMTD and thus, it much-needed evaluate hiddenness HMTD. This paper first summarizes two existing attacker models, i.e., bad-data-detection-based data...

In this paper a technique of Hough detector threshold procedure for moving target detection under conditions of randomly arriving impulse interference with a Poisson distributed flow and Raleigh amplitude distribution is proposed. The expressions of detection and false alarm probability are derived for a highly fluctuating Swerling II target. A comparative analysis of the performance of a Hough...

The studies in aerial vehicles modeling and control have been increased rapidly recently. In this paper , a coordination of two types of heterogeneous robots , namely unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) is considered. In this paper the UAV plays the role of a virtual leader for the UGVs. The system consists of a vision- based target detection algorithm that uses the ...

The smart grid (SG), regarded as the complex cyber-physical ecosystem of infrastructures, orchestrates advanced communication, computation, and control technologies to interact with physical environment. Due high rewards that threats can realize, adversaries mount cyber-attacks such persistent threats-based coordinated attacks cause operational malfunctions power outages in worst scenarios: lat...

A rapidly increasing number of Phase I dose-finding studies, and in particular those based on the standard 3+3 design, are being prolonged with the inclusion of dose expansion cohorts (DEC) in order to better characterize the toxicity profiles of experimental agents and to study disease-specific cohorts. These trials consist of two phases: the usual dose escalation phase that aims to establish ...

The objective is to evaluate in situ detection of living mycobacterium tuberculosis rRNA using Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Direct Assay (MTD) and its clinical significance in early diagnosis of extrapulmonary tuberculosis. 86 patients having been diagnosed to have extrapulmonary tuberculosis including tuberculous peritonitis (n=22), lymphatic tuberculosis (n=21), tuberculous meningitis (n=15), H...

OBJECTIVE It has been shown that discharge of single darkness detector in the frog retina can lead to suprathreshold excitation of the tectal neurons. The present study was designed to explore whether a suprathreshold excitation of frog tectal neurons can be elicited by the discharge of single moving-edge detector. MATERIAL AND METHODS The discharge of a single retina ganglion cell was elicit...

Abstract In July 2018 an optimization run for the proposed charm cross section measurement SHiP was performed at CERN SPS. A heavy, moving target instrumented with nuclear emulsion films followed by a silicon pixel tracker installed in front of Goliath magnet H4 proton beam-line. Behind magnet, scintillating-fibre, drift-tube and RPC detectors were placed. The purpose this to validate measureme...

Phase I trials of anti-cancer therapies aim to identify a maximum tolerated dose (MTD), defined as the dose that causes unacceptable toxicity in a target proportion of patients. Both rule-based and model-based methods have been proposed for MTD recommendation. The escalation with overdose control (EWOC) approach is a model-based design where the dose assigned to the next patient is one that, gi...
