Magnifying micro changes in motion and brightness of videos that are unnoticeable by the human visual system have recently been an interesting area to explore. In this paper, we explore this technique in 3D facial video identification, we utilize this technique to identify 3D objects from 2D images. We present a Complex Wavelet Transform CWT, 2D-Dual CWT based technique, to calculate any changes

Pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) are a key component in the design of modern cryptographic mechanisms and are regarded as a backbone element of many modern cryptographic applications. However and in spite of their robustness, quantum computers could crack down PNGR-based systems. Quantum walks, a universal model of quantum computation, have nonlinear properties that make them a robust

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an Internet revolution that is increasingly used in business, industry, medicine, the economy and other modern information society. IoT, particularly transport, industrial robots and automation systems are supported by artificial intelligence in a wide range of daily implementations with dominant industrial applications. IoT is an interconnected network of physical

Cognitive radios have emerged as a key enabler for opportunistic spectrum access, in order to tackle the wireless spectrum scarcity and under utilization problems over the past two decades. In this paper, we aim to enhance the secondary user (SU) performance while maintaining the desired average packet delay for the primary user (PU). In particular, we investigate the trade-off between delay

As a powerful optimization algorithm for solving nonlinear, complex and tough global optimization problems, differential evolution (DE) has been widely applied in various science and engineering fields. In this article, considering that the evolution direction of each individual is not fully exploited to guide the search process in most DE algorithms, a new DE variant ( named ADEwSE), which

Recently, research studies were directed to the construction of a universal defect prediction model. Such models are trained using different projects to have enough training data and be generic. One of the main challenges in the construction of a universal model is the different distributions of metrics in various projects. In this study, we aim to build a universal defect prediction model to

Traffic Characterization, Application Identification, Per Application Classification, and VPN/Non-VPN Traffic Characterization have been some of the most notable research topics over the past few years. Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) promises an increase in Quality of Service (QoS) for Internet Service Providers (ISPs), simplifies network management and plays a vital role in content censoring. DPI

In this paper, we report an effective cryptosystem aimed at securing the transmission of medical images in an Internet of Healthcare Things (IoHT) environment. This contribution investigates the dynamics of a 2-D trigonometric map designed using some well-known maps: Logistic-sine-cosine maps. Stability analysis reveals that the map has an infinite number of solutions. Lyapunov exponent

Magnetic Levitation System is one of practical examples which faces some nonlinearities behavior. Such systems require special types of controller parameters consideration for accurate results. In this paper, the process of tuning is to determine the system poles and getting them away from the instability region using state feedback (SF) controller methodology. The resulted controllable system

Traffic offloading is considered a promising solution to relieve the explosive congestion of future cellular networks. Existing works in the literature focus on increasing the number of offloaded users. Nevertheless, users' traffic load plays a critical role in having the ability to relay the data intended for the cellular users. In this paper, we consider the traffic offloading problem in a
