| This paper studies resilient functions which have applications in fault-tolerant distributed computing, quantum cryptographic key distribution and random sequence generation for stream ciphers. We present a number of new methods for synthesizing resilient functions. An interesting aspect of these methods is that they are applicable both to linear and to nonlinear resilient functions. Our seco...

classification of heart arrhythmia is an important step in developing devices for monitoring the health of individuals. this paper proposes a three module system for classification of electrocardiogram (ecg) beats. these modules are: denoising module, feature extraction module and a classification module. in the first module the stationary wavelet transform (swf) is used for noise reduction of ...

Putting the Principles of Climate Change Adaptation into Practice Coast to Challenge is first LIFE IP project on climate adaptation. The aims create climate-resilient cities in a region. We do this based local adaptation plans municipalities made back 2014. efforts must be more coherent and holistic, with added value long-term sustainability.

The main results of this work are new public-key encryption schemes that, under the quadratic residuosity (QR) assumption (or Paillier’s decisional composite residuosity (DCR) assumption), achieve key-dependent message security as well as high resilience to secret key leakage and high resilience to the presence of auxiliary input information. In particular, under what we call the subgroup indis...

Back Propagation and its variations are widely used as methods for training artificial neural networks. One such variation, Resilient Back Propagation (RPROP), has proven to be one of the best in terms of speed of convergence. Our SARPROP enhancement, based on Simulated Annealing, is described in this paper and is shown to increase the rate of convergence for some problems. The extension involv...

Image hiding is a form of steganography that works by embedding data into a digital media for the purpose of identification, annotation, and copyrighting. This paper introduces a novel image steganography system, which embeds (RGB) secret image within (RGB) cover image chosen by an enhanced resilient back propagation neural network. The proposed system includes embedding and extraction phases. ...
