However, its anonymity has provided new ways for Ponzi schemes to commit fraud, posing significant risks to investors. Current research still has some limitations, for example, Ponzi schemes are difficult to detect in the early stages of smart contract deployment, and data imbalance is not considered. In addition, there is room for improving the detection accuracy. To address the above issues, this paper proposes LT-SPSD (LSTM-Transformer smart Ponzi schemes detection), which is a Ponzi scheme detection method that combines Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) and Transformer considering the time-series transaction information of smart contracts as well as the global information. Based on the verified smart contract addresses, account features, and code features are extracted to construct a feature dataset, and the SMOTE-Tomek algorithm is used to deal with the imbalanced data classification problem. By comparing our method with the other four typical detection methods in the experiment, the LT-SPSD method shows significant performance improvement in precision, recall, and F1-score. The results of the experiment confirm the efficacy of the model, which has some application value in Ethereum Ponzi scheme smart contract detection.展开更多

In particular, second-order bandpass sampling (BPS) as a technique that enables to realize the multiband reception function was discussed. In a second-order BPS system, digital reconstruction filters were utilized to eliminate the interferences generated while down converting arbitrarily positioned RF-band signals by using the direct digitization method. However, the inaccuracy in the phase shift or the amplitude mismatch between the two sample streams may cause insufficient rejection of interference. Practical problems were studied, such as performance degradation in signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) and compensation methods to overcome them. In order to demonstrate the second- order BPS as a flexible DFE suitable for software-defined radio (SDR) or cognitive radio (CR), a DFE testbed with a reconfigurable structure was implemented. Moreover, with a view to further demonstrate the proposed compensation algorithms, experimental results show that dual bands are received simultaneously.展开更多

文摘Imbalance is a distinctive feature of many datasets,and how to make the dataset balanced become a hot topic in the machine learning field.The Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique(SMOTE)is the classical method to solve this problem.Although much research has been conducted on SMOTE,there is still the problem of synthetic sample singularity.To solve the issues of class imbalance and diversity of generated samples,this paper proposes a hybrid resampling method for binary imbalanced data sets,RE-SMOTE,which is designed based on the improvements of two oversampling methods parameter-free SMOTE(PF-SMOTE)and SMOTE-Weighted Ensemble Nearest Neighbor(SMOTE-WENN).Initially,minority class samples are divided into safe and boundary minority categories.Boundary minority samples are regenerated through linear interpolation with the nearest majority class samples.In contrast,safe minority samples are randomly generated within a circular range centered on the initial safe minority samples with a radius determined by the distance to the nearest majority class samples.Furthermore,we use Weighted Edited Nearest Neighbor(WENN)and relative density methods to clean the generated samples and remove the low-quality samples.Relative density is calculated based on the ratio of majority to minority samples among the reverse k-nearest neighbor samples.To verify the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed model,we conducted a comprehensive experimental study on 40 datasets selected from real applications.The experimental results show the superiority of radius estimation-SMOTE(RE-SMOTE)over other state-of-the-art methods.Code is available at:https://github.com/blue9792/RE-SMOTE(accessed on 30 September 2024).

文摘To effectively extract multi-scale information from observation data and improve computational efficiency,a multi-scale second-order autoregressive recursive filter(MSRF)method is designed.The second-order autoregressive filter used in this study has been attempted to replace the traditional first-order recursive filter used in spatial multi-scale recursive filter(SMRF)method.The experimental results indicate that the MSRF scheme successfully extracts various scale information resolved by observations.Moreover,compared with the SMRF scheme,the MSRF scheme improves computational accuracy and efficiency to some extent.The MSRF scheme can not only propagate to a longer distance without the attenuation of innovation,but also reduce the mean absolute deviation between the reconstructed sea ice concentration results and observations reduced by about 3.2%compared to the SMRF scheme.On the other hand,compared with traditional first-order recursive filters using in the SMRF scheme that multiple filters are executed,the MSRF scheme only needs to perform two filter processes in one iteration,greatly improving filtering efficiency.In the two-dimensional experiment of sea ice concentration,the calculation time of the MSRF scheme is only 1/7 of that of SMRF scheme.This means that the MSRF scheme can achieve better performance with less computational cost,which is of great significance for further application in real-time ocean or sea ice data assimilation systems in the future.

文摘Peer-to-peer(P2P)overlay networks provide message transmission capabilities for blockchain systems.Improving data transmission efficiency in P2P networks can greatly enhance the performance of blockchain systems.However,traditional blockchain P2P networks face a common challenge where there is often a mismatch between the upper-layer traffic requirements and the underlying physical network topology.This mismatch results in redundant data transmission and inefficient routing,severely constraining the scalability of blockchain systems.To address these pressing issues,we propose FPSblo,an efficient transmission method for blockchain networks.Our inspiration for FPSblo stems from the Farthest Point Sampling(FPS)algorithm,a well-established technique widely utilized in point cloud image processing.In this work,we analogize blockchain nodes to points in a point cloud image and select a representative set of nodes to prioritize message forwarding so that messages reach the network edge quickly and are evenly distributed.Moreover,we compare our model with the Kadcast transmission model,which is a classic improvement model for blockchain P2P transmission networks,the experimental findings show that the FPSblo model reduces 34.8%of transmission redundancy and reduces the overload rate by 37.6%.By conducting experimental analysis,the FPS-BT model enhances the transmission capabilities of the P2P network in blockchain.

文摘Freeform surface measurement is a key basic technology for product quality control and reverse engineering in aerospace field.Surface measurement technology based on multi-sensor fusion such as laser scanner and contact probe can combine the complementary characteristics of different sensors,and has been widely concerned in industry and academia.The number and distribution of measurement points will significantly affect the efficiency of multisensor fusion and the accuracy of surface reconstruction.An aggregation‑value‑based active sampling method for multisensor freeform surface measurement and reconstruction is proposed.Based on game theory iteration,probe measurement points are generated actively,and the importance of each measurement point on freeform surface to multi-sensor fusion is clearly defined as Shapley value of the measurement point.Thus,the problem of obtaining the optimal measurement point set is transformed into the problem of maximizing the aggregation value of the sample set.Simulation and real measurement results verify that the proposed method can significantly reduce the required probe sample size while ensuring the measurement accuracy of multi-sensor fusion.

文摘For the problem of slow search and tortuous paths in the Rapidly Exploring Random Tree(RRT)algorithm,a feedback-biased sampling RRT,called FS-RRT,is proposedbasedon RRT.Firstly,toimprove the samplingefficiency of RRT to shorten the search time,the search area of the randomtree is restricted to improve the sampling efficiency.Secondly,to obtain better information about obstacles to shorten the path length,a feedback-biased sampling strategy is used instead of the traditional random sampling,the collision of the expanding node with an obstacle generates feedback information so that the next expanding node avoids expanding within a specific angle range.Thirdly,this paper proposes using the inverse optimization strategy to remove redundancy points from the initial path,making the path shorter and more accurate.Finally,to satisfy the smooth operation of the robot in practice,auxiliary points are used to optimize the cubic Bezier curve to avoid path-crossing obstacles when using the Bezier curve optimization.The experimental results demonstrate that,compared to the traditional RRT algorithm,the proposed FS-RRT algorithm performs favorably against mainstream algorithms regarding running time,number of search iterations,and path length.Moreover,the improved algorithm also performs well in a narrow obstacle environment,and its effectiveness is further confirmed by experimental verification.
文摘In order to accurately measure an object’s three-dimensional surface shape,the influence of sampling on it was studied.First,on the basis of deriving spectra expressions through the Fourier transform,the generation of CCD pixels was analyzed,and its expression was given.Then,based on the discrete expression of deformation fringes obtained after sampling,its Fourier spectrum expression was derived,resulting in an infinitely repeated"spectra island"in the frequency domain.Finally,on the basis of using a low-pass filter to remove high-order harmonic components and retaining only one fundamental frequency component,the inverse Fourier transform was used to reconstruct the signal strength.A method of reducing the sampling interval,i.e.,reducing the number of sampling points per fringe,was proposed to increase the ratio between the sampling frequency and the fundamental frequency of the grating.This was done to reconstruct the object’s surface shape more accurately under the condition of m>4.The basic principle was verified through simulation and experiment.In the simulation,the sampling intervals were 8 pixels,4 pixels,2 pixels,and 1 pixel,the maximum absolute error values obtained in the last three situations were 88.80%,38.38%,and 31.50%in the first situation,respectively,and the corresponding average absolute error values are 71.84%,43.27%,and 32.26%.It is demonstrated that the smaller the sampling interval,the better the recovery effect.Taking the same four sampling intervals in the experiment as in the simulation can also lead to the same conclusions.The simulated and experimental results show that reducing the sampling interval can improve the accuracy of object surface shape measurement and achieve better reconstruction results.

文摘Disjoint sampling is critical for rigorous and unbiased evaluation of state-of-the-art(SOTA)models e.g.,Attention Graph and Vision Transformer.When training,validation,and test sets overlap or share data,it introduces a bias that inflates performance metrics and prevents accurate assessment of a model’s true ability to generalize to new examples.This paper presents an innovative disjoint sampling approach for training SOTA models for the Hyperspectral Image Classification(HSIC).By separating training,validation,and test data without overlap,the proposed method facilitates a fairer evaluation of how well a model can classify pixels it was not exposed to during training or validation.Experiments demonstrate the approach significantly improves a model’s generalization compared to alternatives that include training and validation data in test data(A trivial approach involves testing the model on the entire Hyperspectral dataset to generate the ground truth maps.This approach produces higher accuracy but ultimately results in low generalization performance).Disjoint sampling eliminates data leakage between sets and provides reliable metrics for benchmarking progress in HSIC.Disjoint sampling is critical for advancing SOTA models and their real-world application to large-scale land mapping with Hyperspectral sensors.Overall,with the disjoint test set,the performance of the deep models achieves 96.36%accuracy on Indian Pines data,99.73%on Pavia University data,98.29%on University of Houston data,99.43%on Botswana data,and 99.88%on Salinas data.

文摘We propose a new framework for the sampling,compression,and analysis of distributions of point sets and other geometric objects embedded in Euclidean spaces.Our approach involves constructing a tensor called the RaySense sketch,which captures nearest neighbors from the underlying geometry of points along a set of rays.We explore various operations that can be performed on the RaySense sketch,leading to different properties and potential applications.Statistical information about the data set can be extracted from the sketch,independent of the ray set.Line integrals on point sets can be efficiently computed using the sketch.We also present several examples illustrating applications of the proposed strategy in practical scenarios.

文摘In the cascaded H-bridge inverter(CHBI)with supercapacitor and dc-dc stage,inherent second-order harmonic power flows through each submodule(SM),causing fluctuations in both the dc-link voltage and the dc-dc current.There exist limitations in handling these fluctuations at variable output frequencies when employing proportional-integral(PI)control to the dc-dc stage.This paper aims to coordinately control these second-order harmonic voltage and current fluctuations in the CHBI.The presented method configures a specific second-order harmonic voltage reference,equipped with a maximum voltage fluctuation constraint and a suitable phase,for the dc-dc stage.A PI-resonant controller is used to track the configured reference.This allows for regulating the second-order harmonic fluctuation in the average dc-link voltage among the SMs within a certain value.Importantly,the second-order harmonic fluctuation in the dc-dc current can also be reduced.Simulation and experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the presented method.

文摘Physics-informed neural networks(PINNs)have become an attractive machine learning framework for obtaining solutions to partial differential equations(PDEs).PINNs embed initial,boundary,and PDE constraints into the loss function.The performance of PINNs is generally affected by both training and sampling.Specifically,training methods focus on how to overcome the training difficulties caused by the special PDE residual loss of PINNs,and sampling methods are concerned with the location and distribution of the sampling points upon which evaluations of PDE residual loss are accomplished.However,a common problem among these original PINNs is that they omit special temporal information utilization during the training or sampling stages when dealing with an important PDE category,namely,time-dependent PDEs,where temporal information plays a key role in the algorithms used.There is one method,called Causal PINN,that considers temporal causality at the training level but not special temporal utilization at the sampling level.Incorporating temporal knowledge into sampling remains to be studied.To fill this gap,we propose a novel temporal causality-based adaptive sampling method that dynamically determines the sampling ratio according to both PDE residual and temporal causality.By designing a sampling ratio determined by both residual loss and temporal causality to control the number and location of sampled points in each temporal sub-domain,we provide a practical solution by incorporating temporal information into sampling.Numerical experiments of several nonlinear time-dependent PDEs,including the Cahn–Hilliard,Korteweg–de Vries,Allen–Cahn and wave equations,show that our proposed sampling method can improve the performance.We demonstrate that using such a relatively simple sampling method can improve prediction performance by up to two orders of magnitude compared with the results from other methods,especially when points are limited.
