We introduce a method for the assessment of trust for n-open systems based on a measurement of fidelity and present a prototypic implementation of a complaint architecture. We construct a MAPE loop which monitors the compliance between corresponding figures of interest in cyberand physical domains; derive measures of the system’s trustworthiness; and use them to plan and execute actions aiming ...

We consider the unit tangent sphere bundle of Riemannian manifold ( M, g ) with g-natural metric G̃ and we equip it to an almost contact B-metric structure. Considering this structure, we show that there is a direct correlation between the Riemannian curvature tensor of ( M, g ) and local symmetry property of G̃. More precisely, we prove that the flatness of metric g is necessary and sufficien...

we obtain two fixed point theorems for a kind of $varphi $-contractions incomplete fuzzy metric spaces, which are applied to easily deduceintuitionistic versions that improve and simplify the recent results of x.huang, c. zhu and x. wen.

In this paper, a novel saliency theory based RR-IQA metric is introduced. As the human visual system is sensitive to the salient region, evaluating the image quality based on the salient region could increase the accuracy of the algorithm. In order to extract the salient regions, we use blob decomposition (BD) tool as a texture component descriptor. A new method for blob decomposition is propos...

In this work‎, ‎we formulate Chatterjea contractions using graphs in metric spaces endowed with a graph ‎‎and‏ ‎‎‎‎investigate ‎the ‎existence‎ ‎of ‎fixed ‎points ‎for such mappings ‎under two different hypotheses‎. We also discuss the uniqueness of the fixed point. The given result is a generalization of Chatterjea's fixed point theorem from metric spaces to metric spaces endowed with a graph.

In this paper, we introduce a new class of implicit functions and also common property (E.A) in modified intuitionistic fuzzy metric spaces and utilize the same to prove some common fixed point theorems in modified intuitionistic fuzzy metric spaces besides discussing related results and illustrative examples. We are not aware of any paper dealing with such implicit functions in modified intuit...

This paper introduces a metric to measure the degree to which two computer programs are similar for plagiarism detection. This similarity metric is based on Kolmogorov complexity 8] and measures the amount of shared information between two programs. The measure is universal hence in theory not cheatable. Although the metric is not computable, we have designed and implemented a system SID (Softw...

In this paper we aim to obtain the attractors with assistance of a finite family generalized contractive mappings, which belong special class mappings defined on partial metric space. Consequently, variety results for iterated function systems satisfying different set conditions are acquired. We present some examples in support proved herein. Our generalize, unify and extend exist current liter...
