The document presents a simple and robust digital image watermarking technique against salt and pepper noise using repetition codes. It embeds an encoded watermark image into the cover image pixels by replacing the least significant bit. The watermark is first encoded using (7,4) Hamming code or (3,1) and (5,1) repetition codes. The encoded bits are then embedded into the cover image using least significant bit substitution. Experimental results show that encoding the watermark with (5,1) repetition code provides better robustness against salt and pepper noise compared to other encoding schemes, without degrading the cover image quality significantly. The proposed technique is simple to implement and offers improved performance for copyright protection of digital images.

Hardware Implementation of Genetic Algorithm Based Digital Colour Image Water...IDES Editor
This document describes a hardware implementation of a genetic algorithm based digital color image watermarking system. The system embeds a watermark image into the luminance channel (Y channel) of a host color image after converting the image from RGB to YUV color space. A genetic algorithm is used to determine optimal intensity values in the host image for embedding the watermark image bits invisibly. The proposed design is implemented as a custom integrated circuit for real-time watermarking of images as they are captured by a digital camera. Synthesis results show that the design can operate at 5ns clock speed and consumes a maximum power of 73.84mW when implemented on an Altera Cyclone II FPGA.
This document discusses different techniques for digital image watermarking, including in the spatial and frequency domains. It provides an overview of watermarking concepts and applications. It then describes two watermarking algorithms - one that embeds watermarks in the spatial domain by modifying pixel intensities in selected image blocks, and another that embeds watermarks in the wavelet domain by modifying selected wavelet coefficients. Both algorithms are described step-by-step and include watermark insertion and extraction procedures. Results are provided showing the performance of the algorithms under different attacks in terms of normalized cross-correlation between the original and extracted watermarks.
Land Cover Feature Extraction using Hybrid Swarm Intelligence Techniques - A ...IDES Editor
This document presents a hybrid algorithm using biogeography-based optimization (BBO) and ant colony optimization (ACO) for land cover feature extraction from remote sensing images. The algorithm first analyzes a training image to identify features that BBO and ACO classify efficiently. It then applies BBO to clusters containing these features and ACO to remaining clusters. An evaluation shows the hybrid algorithm achieves a higher kappa coefficient of 0.97 compared to 0.67 for BBO alone, indicating better classification accuracy. The authors conclude the algorithm effectively handles uncertainties in remote sensing images and future work could improve efficiency further.

An Efficient Video Watermarking Using Color Histogram Analysis and Biplanes I...IJERA Editor
Video watermarking is a novel technology that has the ability to solve the problem of illegal digital video
manipulation and distribution. In video watermarking, the copyright bits are embedded into video bit streams.
This paper proposes an effective, robust and indiscernible video watermarking algorithm. A video can also
undergo several intentional attacks like frame dropping, averaging, cropping and median filtering and
unintentional attacks like addition of noise and compression which can compromise copyright information,
thereby denying the authentication. In this paper, the design and implementation of SVD and multiple bit plane
image based watermarking is proposed. The developed method embeds 8 bit-plane images, obtained from single
gray scale watermark image, into different frames of a video sequence. In this algorithm, some of the luminous
values in the video pictures are selected and divided into groups, and the watermark bits are embedded by
adjusting the relative relationship of the member in each group. A sufficient number of watermark bits will be
embedded into the video pictures without causing noticeable distortion. The watermark will be correctly
retrieved at the extraction stage, even after various types of video manipulation and other signal processing
attacks.
This document summarizes a new approach for optimizing invisible image watermarking using symmetric key algorithms. The approach hides information by dividing a message evenly between two images and manipulating the least significant bit of pixels. It also encrypts the image addresses as a key using DES or AES algorithms. The method embeds data in the spatial domain by changing pixel values. This provides improved security compared to single image watermarking by maximizing the number of images used to hide data. Experimental results show encrypted images cannot be viewed without decryption using the user key, and secret messages can be extracted from watermarked images.

Colored Image Watermarking Technique Based on HVS using HSV Color ModelIDES Editor
The Human Visual System is found to be less
sensitive to the highly textured area of the image. Moreover,
in all colours the blue is least sensitive to the HVS (Human
Visual System). While working on colored images when using
the mathematical and biological models of HVS, the preferred
colour model must be HSV (Hue, Saturation and Value) colour
model rather than RGB colour model because it most closely
defines how the image is interpreted by HVS. The high visual
transparency in the technique is achieved by making use of
highly textured block in luminance channel for watermark
insertion. Moreover, the choice of selecting appropriate area
for watermark insertion is also influenced by making use of
‘Hue’ property of the image in the chrominance channel to
enhance the visual transparency even more. Watermark is
made highly robust against different types of attacks by
performing the watermark insertion in transformed domain
and making use of the transformation functions such as DWT,
DCT and SVD. The results demonstrated the robustness of
the technique against various types of attacks and comparison
through aforesaid results the technique is proven to be more
robust against previous techniques making use of HSI colour
model.

Blind Image Watermarking Based on Chaotic MapsITIIIndustries
Security of a watermark refers to its resistance to unauthorized detecting and decoding, while watermark robustness refers to the watermark’s resistance against common processing. Many watermarking schemes emphasize robustness more than security. However, a robust watermark is not enough to accomplish protection because the range of hostile attacks is not limited to common processing and distortions. In this paper, we give consideration to watermark security. To achieve this, we employ chaotic maps due to their extreme sensitivity to the initial values. If one fails to provide these values, the watermark will be wrongly extracted. While the chaotic maps provide perfect watermarking security, the proposed scheme is also intended to achieve robustness.

This document discusses a method for embedding a binary watermark image into a digital video using a hybrid of three transforms: discrete cosine transform (DCT), discrete wavelet transform (DWT), and singular value decomposition (SVD). The method first applies DCT to frames of the video, then applies three-level DWT to the transformed frames. SVD is then applied to both the transformed video frames and the watermark image. The watermark is embedded by modifying coefficients of the video based on the SVD results. PSNR, MSE, and correlation are used to evaluate the quality and robustness of the watermarked video.
Digital watermarking has been proposed as a solution to the problem of copyright protection of
multimedia documents in networked environments. There are two important issues that watermarking
algorithms need to address. First, watermarking schemes are required to provide trustworthy evidence for
protecting rightful ownership. Second, good watermarking schemes should satisfy the requirement of
robustness and resist distortions due to common image manipulations (such as filtering, compression,
etc.). In this paper, a watermarking algorithm is proposed based on the Discrete Wavelet Transform
(DWT), Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT) and Singular value decomposition (SVD). Analysis and
experimental results show that the proposed watermarking method performs well in both security and
robustness.

DIRECTIONAL BASED WATERMARKING SCHEME USING A NOVEL DATA EMBEDDING APPROACH acijjournal
Image watermarking has come to wide use in the recent past. It is by the authentication problems and limitation means that the setting accuracy of the image watermarking operation is minimized. Different types of integration schemes have been proposed in the past to improve efficiency and makes the
embedding resistant against various attacks .Although transformation, spatial domain approaches have been developed PSNR improvements in image artifacts due to the fringes are still to be observed. To improvise the embedding, image artifacts in this paper a forward – based image embedding scheme is proposed.
The embedding of a digital signature, or tag data is carried out in the frequency domain. The
high frequency varieties are chosen by any LH and HL in the wavelet domain which are to be
applicable in DCT. Coefficients are changed mid-frequency DCT coefficients such transactions by a
low frequency of the watermark to be embedded. Watermark can be recovered from the video by
selecting a random watermark of any reference framework. The proposed techniques are more
secure, robust and are efficient due to the use of static DCT. Watermark techniques uses a bands HL
and LH for adding watermark where the movement does not impact the quality the extracted
watermark until if the video displays for different types of malware attacks.
In this work we have taken three video watermarking techniques i.e. BIT GET (spatial),
DWT, DCT and one video formats ie.MPEG video to perform a comparative analysis of different
techniques using single video formats, to obtain the best performing technique for video
watermarking. Such that to increase robustness of the video and decrease the embedding time
This paper presents a rotation scale invariant digital

then restored to its original size for synchronization purpose.
As a result of synchronization, watermark detection is done

A SEMI-BLIND WATERMARKING SCHEME FOR RGB IMAGE USING CURVELET TRANSFORMijfcstjournal
In this paper, a semi-blind watermarking technique of embedding the color watermark using curvelet coefficient in RGB cover image has been proposed. The technique used the concept of HVS that the human eyes are not much sensitive to blue color. So the blue color plane of the cover image is used as embedding domain. A bit planes method is also used, the most significant bit (MSB) plane of watermark image is used
as embedding information. Selected scale and orientation of the curvelet coefficients of the blue channel in the cover image has been used for embedding the watermark information. All other 0-7 bit planes are used as a key at the time of extraction. The results of the watermarking scheme have been analyzed by different quality assessment metric such as PSNR, Correlation Coefficient (CC) and Mean Structure Similarity Index Measure (MSSIM). The experimental results show that the proposed technique gives the good invisibility of watermark, quality of extracted watermark and robustness against different attacks.

Multiple Binary Images Watermarking in Spatial and Frequency Domainssipij
Editing, reproduction and distribution of the digital multimedia are becoming extremely easier and faster with the existence of the internet and the availability of pervasive and powerful multimedia tools. Digital watermarking has emerged as a possible method to tackle these issues. This paper proposes a scheme using which more data can be inserted into an image in different domains using different techniques. This increases the embedding capacity. Using the proposed scheme 24 binary images can be embedded in the DCT domain and 12 binary images can be embedded in the spatial domain using LSB substitution technique in a single RGB image. The proposed scheme also provides an extra level of security to the watermark image by scrambling the image before embedding it into the host image. Experimental results show that the proposed watermarking method results in almost invisible difference between the watermarked image and the original image and is also robust against various image processing attacks.
Image Watermarking in Spatial Domain Using QIM and Genetic Algorithmijsrd.com
Digital watermarking is one of the proposed solutions for copyright protection of multimedia data. A watermark is a form of image or text that is impressed onto paper, which provides evidence of its authenticity. A digital watermark is digital data embedded in some host document so as to later prove the ownership of the document. Digital image watermarking refers to digital data embedding in images. Robust image watermarking systems are required so that watermarked images can resist geometric attacks in addition to common image processing tasks, such as JPEG compression. Least Significant Bit (LSB) watermarking, is one of the most traditional method of watermarking which changes the LSB of individual pixels in correlation with the watermark. However, pure LSB scheme provides a fragile watermarking technique which is not acceptable in practical applications. Also, robustness against geometric attacks, such as rotation, scaling and translation, still remains one of the most challenging research topics in pixel based image watermarking. In this paper, a new pixel-based watermarking system is proposed, in which a binary logo is embedded, a bit per pixel, in the pixel domain of an image. The LSB based watermarking is then quantized using QIM, augmented with genetic algorithm to produce a watermarking scheme which is highly robust against geometrical attacks.

The watermarked image is generated without noticeably impacting image quality. The proposed method was tested on sample images and successfully embedded watermarks while maintaining visual quality. The technique aims to provide copyright protection and authentication of digital images and documents.
A SEMI-BLIND WATERMARKING SCHEME FOR RGB IMAGE USING CURVELET TRANSFORMijfcstjournal
In this paper, a semi-blind watermarking technique of embedding the color watermark using curvelet coefficient in RGB cover image has been proposed. The technique used the concept of HVS that the human eyes are not much sensitive to blue color. So the blue color plane of the cover image is used as embedding domain. A bit planes method is also used, the most significant bit (MSB) plane of watermark image is used
as embedding information. Selected scale and orientation of the curvelet coefficients of the blue channel in the cover image has been used for embedding the watermark information. All other 0-7 bit planes are used as a key at the time of extraction. The results of the watermarking scheme have been analyzed by different quality assessment metric such as PSNR, Correlation Coefficient (CC) and Mean Structure Similarity Index Measure (MSSIM). The experimental results show that the proposed technique gives the good invisibility of watermark, quality of extracted watermark and robustness against different attacks.

Multiple Binary Images Watermarking in Spatial and Frequency Domainssipij
Editing, reproduction and distribution of the digital multimedia are becoming extremely easier and faster with the existence of the internet and the availability of pervasive and powerful multimedia tools. Digital watermarking has emerged as a possible method to tackle these issues. This paper proposes a scheme using which more data can be inserted into an image in different domains using different techniques. This increases the embedding capacity. Using the proposed scheme 24 binary images can be embedded in the DCT domain and 12 binary images can be embedded in the spatial domain using LSB substitution technique in a single RGB image. The proposed scheme also provides an extra level of security to the watermark image by scrambling the image before embedding it into the host image. Experimental results show that the proposed watermarking method results in almost invisible difference between the watermarked image and the original image and is also robust against various image processing attacks.
Image Watermarking in Spatial Domain Using QIM and Genetic Algorithmijsrd.com
Digital watermarking is one of the proposed solutions for copyright protection of multimedia data. A watermark is a form of image or text that is impressed onto paper, which provides evidence of its authenticity. A digital watermark is digital data embedded in some host document so as to later prove the ownership of the document. Digital image watermarking refers to digital data embedding in images. Robust image watermarking systems are required so that watermarked images can resist geometric attacks in addition to common image processing tasks, such as JPEG compression. Least Significant Bit (LSB) watermarking, is one of the most traditional method of watermarking which changes the LSB of individual pixels in correlation with the watermark. However, pure LSB scheme provides a fragile watermarking technique which is not acceptable in practical applications. Also, robustness against geometric attacks, such as rotation, scaling and translation, still remains one of the most challenging research topics in pixel based image watermarking. In this paper, a new pixel-based watermarking system is proposed, in which a binary logo is embedded, a bit per pixel, in the pixel domain of an image. The LSB based watermarking is then quantized using QIM, augmented with genetic algorithm to produce a watermarking scheme which is highly robust against geometrical attacks.
PREVENTING COPYRIGHTS INFRINGEMENT OF IMAGES BY WATERMARKING IN TRANSFORM DOM...ijistjournal
1) The document discusses a method for preventing copyright infringement of images using watermarking in the transform domain and a full counter propagation neural network.
2) It aims to encode the host image before watermark embedding to enhance security. The fast and effective full counter propagation neural network then helps successfully embed the watermark without deteriorating the image quality.
3) Previous techniques embedded watermarks directly in images, but the authors find neural network synapses provide a better way to reduce distortion and increase message capacity when embedding watermarks.
Performance Comparison of Digital Image Watermarking Techniques: A SurveyEditor IJCATR
Digital watermarking is the processing of combined information into a digital signal. A watermark is a secondary image,
which is overlaid on the host image, and provides a means of protecting the image. In order to provide high quality watermarked
image, the watermarked image should be imperceptible. This paper presents different techniques of digital image watermarking based
on spatial & frequency domain, which shows that spatial domain technique provides security & successful recovery of watermark
image and higher PSNR value compared to frequency domain.
Securing Biometric Images using Reversible WatermarkingCSCJournals
Biometric security is a fast growing area. Protecting biometric data is very important since it can be misused by attackers. In order to increase security of biometric data there are different methods in which watermarking is widely accepted. A more acceptable, new important development in this area is reversible watermarking in which the original image can be completely restored and the watermark can be retrieved. But reversible watermarking in biometrics is an understudied area. Reversible watermarking maintains high quality of biometric data. This paper proposes Rotational Replacement of LSB as a reversible watermarking scheme for biometric images. PSNR is the regular method used for quality measurement of biometric data. In this paper we also prove that SSIM Index can be used as a better alternate for effective quality assessment for reversible watermarked biometric data by comparing with the well known reversible watermarking scheme using Difference Expansion.
Iaetsd literature review on generic lossless visible watermarking &Iaetsd Iaetsd
This document discusses literature on lossless visible watermarking and lossless image recovery. It begins by introducing digital watermarking and classifying methods as visible or invisible. Reversible watermarking allows removal of embedded watermarks and restoration of the original content. The document then reviews existing watermarking techniques in the spatial, frequency and wavelet domains. It proposes a novel method for generic visible watermarking using deterministic one-to-one compound mappings that are reversible, allowing lossless recovery of original images from watermarked images. This approach can embed various visible watermarks of arbitrary sizes into images in a lossless manner.
A Wavelet Based Hybrid SVD Algorithm for Digital Image Watermarkingsipij
In this paper we propose a hybrid image watermarking algorithm which satisfies both imperceptibility and robustness requirements. Our proposed work provide an optimum solution by using singular values of Wavelet Transformation’s HL and LH sub bands to embed watermark. Further to increase and control the strength of the watermark, we use a scale factor. An optimal watermark embedding method is developed to achieve minimum watermarking distortion. A secret embedding key is designed to securely embed the fragile watermarks so that the new method is robust to counterfeiting, even when the malicious attackers are fully aware of the watermark embedding algorithm. Experimental results are provided in terms of peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR), normalized cross correlation (NCC) and gain factor to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. Image operations such as JPEG compression from malicious image attacks and, thus, can be used for semi-fragile watermarking.
This document summarizes a novel scheme for compressed image authentication using least significant bit (LSB) watermarking and enhanced modified RC6 (EMRC6) encryption. The proposed method converts an input image to JPEG2000 format, encrypts a watermark image with EMRC6, and embeds the encrypted watermark in the compressed cover image using LSB watermarking. Test results show the watermarked image has high quality and the extracted watermark is secure. The proposed method achieves a higher PSNR than an existing method using LSB and modified RC6, increasing embedding volume and security for medical image authentication.

Uncompressed Image Steganography using BPCS: Survey and AnalysisIOSR Journals
Abstract: Steganography is the art and science of hide secret information in some carrier data without leaving
any apparent evidence of data alternation. In the past, people use hidden tattoos, invisible ink or punching on
papers to convey stenographic data. Now, information is first hide in digital image, text, video and audio. This
paper discusses existing BPCS (Bit Plane Complexity Segmentation) steganography techniques and presences
of some modification. BPCS technique makes use of the characteristics of the human visible system. BPCS
scheme allows for large capacity of embedded secret data and is highly customized. This algorithm offers higher
hiding capacity due to that it exploits the variance of complex regions in each bit plane. In contrast, the BPCS
algorithm provided a much more effective method for obtaining a 50% capacity since visual attacks did not
suffice for detection.

A Review of BSS Based Digital Image Watermarking and Extraction MethodsIOSR Journals
Abstract :The field of Signal Processing has witnessed the strong emergence of a new technique, the Blind Signal Processing (BSP) which is based on sound theoretical foundation. An offshoot of the BSP is known as Blind Source Separation (BSS). This digital signal processing techniques have a wide and varied potential applications. The term blind is indicative of the fact that both the source signal and the mixing procedures are unknown. One of the more interesting applications of BSS is in field of image data security/authentication where digital watermarking is proposed. Watermarking is a promising technique to help protect data security and intellectual property rights. The plethora digital image watermarking methods are surveyed and discussed here with their features and limitations. Thus literature survey is presented in two major categories-Digital image watermarking methods and BSS based techniques in digital image watermarking and extraction. Keywords – BSP, BSS, Mixing Coefficient, Digital Image Watermarking, Watermark Extraction.
DWT-SVD BASED SECURED IMAGE WATERMARKING FOR COPYRIGHT PROTECTION USING VISUA...cscpconf
In this paper, a new robust watermarking technique for copyright protection based on Discrete
Wavelet Transform and Singular Value Decomposition is proposed. The high frequency subband
of the wavelet decomposed cover image is modified by modifying its singular values. A secret key
is generated from the original watermark with the help of visual cryptography to claim the
ownership of the image. The ownership of the image can be claimed by superimposing this secret
key on the extracted watermark from the watermarked image. The robustness of the technique is
tested by applying different attacks and the visual quality of the extracted watermark after
applying these attacks is good. Also, the visual quality of the watermarked image is undistinguishable from the original image.
This document summarizes a research paper on a relational database watermarking technique using clustering. The proposed technique clusters database tuples before embedding and detecting a watermark. It uses Mahalanobis distance to measure tuple similarity during clustering. The watermark is then embedded and detected within each cluster by modifying the least significant bits of numeric fields. Majority decision is used in blind detection to determine watermark bits. The technique aims to improve watermark robustness against database operations while maintaining reversibility.

Multilayer bit allocation for video encodingIJMIT JOURNAL
Video compression approach removes spatial and temporal redundancy based on the signal statistical correlation. Bit allocation technique adopts a visual distortion model for a better rate visual distortion video coding. Visual distortion model uses both motion and the texture structures in the video sequences. The existing video coding mechanisms reduces the bit rate for video coding. However to get better video compression ratio there is a need for multilayer compression technique. In this paper we proposed a multilayer bit allocation video coding mechanism. The proposed model reduces the bit allocation for video coding by retaining the same video quality. The experimental results using the proposed model reduced the bit rate by 3% to 4%. The result are promising. Finally we conclude with conclusion and future work.

Power System State Estimation - A ReviewIDES Editor
This document provides a review of power system state estimation techniques. It discusses both static and dynamic state estimation algorithms. For static state estimation, it covers weighted least squares, decoupled, and robust estimation methods. Weighted least squares is commonly used but can have numerical instability issues. Decoupled state estimation approximates the gain matrix for faster computation. Robust estimation uses M-estimators and other techniques to handle outliers and bad data. Dynamic state estimation applies Kalman filtering, leapfrog algorithms, and other methods to continuously monitor system states over time.
Artificial Intelligence Technique based Reactive Power Planning Incorporating...IDES Editor
This document summarizes a research paper that proposes using artificial intelligence techniques and FACTS controllers for reactive power planning in real-time power transmission systems. The paper formulates the reactive power planning problem and incorporates flexible AC transmission system (FACTS) devices like static VAR compensators (SVC), thyristor controlled series capacitors (TCSC), and unified power flow controllers (UPFC). Evolutionary algorithms like evolutionary programming (EP) and differential evolution (DE) are applied to find the optimal locations and settings of the FACTS controllers to minimize losses and costs. Simulation results on IEEE 30-bus and 72-bus Indian test systems show that UPFC performs best in reducing losses compared to SVC and TCSC.

Damping of power system oscillations with the help

paper. This study presents robust tuning of PID-PSS and
SVC-based controllers using Genetic Algorithms (GA) in
multi machine power systems by considering detailed model
of the generators (model 1.1). The effectiveness of FACTSbased
controllers in general and SVC-based controller in
particular depends upon their proper location. Modal
controllability and observability are used to locate SVC–based

performance.
Optimal Placement of DG for Loss Reduction and Voltage Sag Mitigation in Radi...IDES Editor
This paper presents the need to operate the power
system economically and with optimum levels of voltages has
further led to an increase in interest in Distributed
Generation. In order to reduce the power losses and to improve
the voltage in the distribution system, distributed generators
(DGs) are connected to load bus. To reduce the total power
losses in the system, the most important process is to identify
the proper location for fixing and sizing of DGs. It presents a
new methodology using a new population based meta heuristic
approach namely Artificial Bee Colony algorithm(ABC) for
the placement of Distributed Generators(DG) in the radial
distribution systems to reduce the real power losses and to
improve the voltage profile, voltage sag mitigation. The power
loss reduction is important factor for utility companies because
it is directly proportional to the company benefits in a
competitive electricity market, while reaching the better power
quality standards is too important as it has vital effect on
customer orientation. In this paper an ABC algorithm is
developed to gain these goals all together. In order to evaluate
sag mitigation capability of the proposed algorithm, voltage
in voltage sensitive buses is investigated. An existing 20KV
network has been chosen as test network and results are
compared with the proposed method in the radial distribution
system.
Line Losses in the 14-Bus Power System Network using UPFCIDES Editor
Controlling power flow in modern power systems
can be made more flexible by the use of recent developments
in power electronic and computing control technology. The
Unified Power Flow Controller (UPFC) is a Flexible AC
transmission system (FACTS) device that can control all the
three system variables namely line reactance, magnitude and
phase angle difference of voltage across the line. The UPFC
provides a promising means to control power flow in modern
power systems. Essentially the performance depends on proper
control setting achievable through a power flow analysis
program. This paper presents a reliable method to meet the
requirements by developing a Newton-Raphson based load
flow calculation through which control settings of UPFC can
be determined for the pre-specified power flow between the
lines. The proposed method keeps Newton-Raphson Load Flow
(NRLF) algorithm intact and needs (little modification in the
Jacobian matrix). A MATLAB program has been developed to
calculate the control settings of UPFC and the power flow
between the lines after the load flow is converged. Case studies
have been performed on IEEE 5-bus system and 14-bus system
to show that the proposed method is effective. These studies
indicate that the method maintains the basic NRLF properties
such as fast computational speed, high degree of accuracy and
good convergence rate.
Study of Structural Behaviour of Gravity Dam with Various Features of Gallery...IDES Editor
The size and shape of opening in dam causes the
stress concentration, it also causes the stress variation in the
rest of the dam cross section. The gravity method of the analysis
does not consider the size of opening and the elastic property
of dam material. Thus the objective of study is comprises of
the Finite Element Method which considers the size of
opening, elastic property of material, and stress distribution
because of geometric discontinuity in cross section of dam.
Stress concentration inside the dam increases with the opening
in dam which results in the failure of dam. Hence it is
necessary to analyses large opening inside the dam. By making
the percentage area of opening constant and varying size and
shape of opening the analysis is carried out. For this purpose
a section of Koyna Dam is considered. Dam is defined as a
plane strain element in FEM, based on geometry and loading
condition. Thus this available information specified our path
of approach to carry out 2D plane strain analysis. The results
obtained are then compared mutually to get most efficient
way of providing large opening in the gravity dam.
Assessing Uncertainty of Pushover Analysis to Geometric ModelingIDES Editor
Pushover Analysis a popular tool for seismic
performance evaluation of existing and new structures and is
nonlinear Static procedure where in monotonically increasing
loads are applied to the structure till the structure is unable
to resist the further load .During the analysis, whatever the
strength of concrete and steel is adopted for analysis of
structure may not be the same when real structure is
constructed and the pushover analysis results are very sensitive
to material model adopted, geometric model adopted, location
of plastic hinges and in general to procedure followed by the
analyzer. In this paper attempt has been made to assess
uncertainty in pushover analysis results by considering user
defined hinges and frame modeled as bare frame and frame
with slab modeled as rigid diaphragm and results compared
with experimental observations. Uncertain parameters
considered includes the strength of concrete, strength of steel
and cover to the reinforcement which are randomly generated
and incorporated into the analysis. The results are then
compared with experimental observations.

Selfish Node Isolation & Incentivation using Progressive ThresholdsIDES Editor
The problems associated with selfish nodes in
MANET are addressed by a collaborative watchdog approach
which reduces the detection time for selfish nodes thereby
improves the performance and accuracy of watchdogs[1]. In
the related works they make use of credit based systems, reputation
based mechanisms, pathrater and watchdog mechanism
to detect such selfish nodes. In this paper we follow an approach
of collaborative watchdog which reduces the detection
time for selfish nodes and also involves the removal of such
selfish nodes based on some progressively assessed thresholds.
The threshold gives the nodes a chance to stop misbehaving
before it is permanently deleted from the network.
The node passes through several isolation processes before it
is permanently removed. Another version of AODV protocol
is used here which allows the simulation of selfish nodes in
NS2 by adding or modifying log files in the protocol.
Various OSI Layer Attacks and Countermeasure to Enhance the Performance of WS...IDES Editor
Wireless sensor networks are networks having non
wired infrastructure and dynamic topology. In OSI model each
layer is prone to various attacks, which halts the performance
of a network .In this paper several attacks on four layers of
OSI model are discussed and security mechanism is described
to prevent attack in network layer i.e wormhole attack. In
Wormhole attack two or more malicious nodes makes a covert
channel which attracts the traffic towards itself by depicting a
low latency link and then start dropping and replaying packets
in the multi-path route. This paper proposes promiscuous mode
method to detect and isolate the malicious node during
wormhole attack by using Ad-hoc on demand distance vector
routing protocol (AODV) with omnidirectional antenna. The
methodology implemented notifies that the nodes which are
not participating in multi-path routing generates an alarm
message during delay and then detects and isolate the
malicious node from network. We also notice that not only
the same kind of attacks but also the same kind of
countermeasures can appear in multiple layer. For example,
misbehavior detection techniques can be applied to almost all
the layers we discussed.

Cloud Security and Data Integrity with Client Accountability FrameworkIDES Editor
This document summarizes a proposed cloud security and data integrity framework that provides client accountability. The framework aims to address issues like lack of user control over cloud data, need for data transparency and tracking, and ensuring data integrity. It proposes using JAR (Java Archive) files for data sharing due to benefits like portability. The framework incorporates client-side verification using MD5 hashing, digital signature-based authentication of JAR files, and use of HMAC to ensure data integrity. It also uses password-based encryption of log files to keep them tamper-proof. The framework is intended to provide both accountability and security for data sharing in cloud environments.
Genetic Algorithm based Layered Detection and Defense of HTTP BotnetIDES Editor
A System state in HTTP botnet uses HTTP protocol
for the creation of chain of Botnets thereby compromising
other systems. By using HTTP protocol and port number 80,
attacks can not only be hidden but also pass through the
firewall without being detected. The DPR based detection
leads to better analysis of botnet attacks [3]. However, it
provides only probabilistic detection of the attacker and also
time consuming and error prone. This paper proposes a Genetic
algorithm based layered approach for detecting as well as
preventing botnet attacks. The paper reviews p2p firewall
implementation which forms the basis of filtering.
Performance evaluation is done based on precision, F-value
and probability. Layered approach reduces the computation
and overall time requirement [7]. Genetic algorithm promises
a low false positive rate.
Enhancing Data Storage Security in Cloud Computing Through SteganographyIDES Editor

The method hides user data in digital images stored on cloud servers. When data needs to be accessed, it is extracted from the images. The document outlines the cloud architecture and security issues addressed. It then describes the proposed system architecture, security model, and data storage and retrieval process. Data is partitioned and hidden in multiple images to improve security. The goal is to prevent unauthorized access to user data stored on cloud servers.
The main tasks of a Wireless Sensor Network
(WSN) are data collection from its nodes and communication
of this data to the base station (BS). The protocols used for
communication among the WSN nodes and between the WSN
and the BS, must consider the resource constraints of nodes,
battery energy, computational capabilities and memory. The
WSN applications involve unattended operation of the network
over an extended period of time. In order to extend the lifetime
of a WSN, efficient routing protocols need to be adopted. The
proposed low power routing protocol based on tree-based
network structure reliably forwards the measured data towards
the BS using TDMA. An energy consumption analysis of the
WSN making use of this protocol is also carried out. It is
found that the network is energy efficient with an average
duty cycle of 0:7% for the WSN nodes. The OmNET++
simulation platform along with MiXiM framework is made
use of.
Permutation of Pixels within the Shares of Visual Cryptography using KBRP for...IDES Editor
The security of authentication of internet based
co-banking services should not be susceptible to high risks.
The passwords are highly vulnerable to virus attacks due to
the lack of high end embedding of security methods. In order
for the passwords to be more secure, people are generally
compelled to select jumbled up character based passwords
which are not only less memorable but are also equally prone
to insecurity. Multiple use of distributed shares has been
studied to solve the problem of authentication by algorithms
based on thresholding of pixels in image processing and visual
cryptography concepts where the subset of shares is considered
for the recovery of the original image for authentication using
correlation function[1][2].The main disadvantage in the above
study is the plain storage of shares and also one of the shares
is being supplied to the customer, which will lead to the
possibility of misuse by a third party. This paper proposes a
technique for scrambling of pixels by key based random
permutation (KBRP) within the shares before the
authentication has been attempted. Total number of shares to
be created is dependent on the multiplicity of ownership of
the account. By this method the problem of uncertainty among
the customers with regard to security, storage, retrieval of
holding of half of the shares is minimized.
This paper presents a trifocal Rotman Lens Design
approach. The effects of focal ratio and element spacing on
the performance of Rotman Lens are described. A three beam
prototype feeding 4 element antenna array working in L-band
has been simulated using RLD v1.7 software. Simulated
results show that the simulated lens has a return loss of –
12.4dB at 1.8GHz. Beam to array port phase error variation
with change in the focal ratio and element spacing has also
been investigated.
Band Clustering for the Lossless Compression of AVIRIS Hyperspectral ImagesIDES Editor
Hyperspectral images can be efficiently compressed
through a linear predictive model, as for example the one
used in the SLSQ algorithm. In this paper we exploit this
predictive model on the AVIRIS images by individuating,
through an off-line approach, a common subset of bands, which
are not spectrally related with any other bands. These bands
are not useful as prediction reference for the SLSQ 3-D
predictive model and we need to encode them via other
prediction strategies which consider only spatial correlation.
We have obtained this subset by clustering the AVIRIS bands
via the clustering by compression approach. The main result
of this paper is the list of the bands, not related with the
others, for AVIRIS images. The clustering trees obtained for
AVIRIS and the relationship among bands they depict is also
an interesting starting point for future research.

Texture Unit based Monocular Real-world Scene Classification using SOM and KN...IDES Editor
In this paper a method is proposed to discriminate
real world scenes in to natural and manmade scenes of similar
depth. Global-roughness of a scene image varies as a function
of image-depth. Increase in image depth leads to increase in
roughness in manmade scenes; on the contrary natural scenes
exhibit smooth behavior at higher image depth. This particular
arrangement of pixels in scene structure can be well explained
by local texture information in a pixel and its neighborhood.
Our proposed method analyses local texture information of a
scene image using texture unit matrix. For final classification
we have used both supervised and unsupervised learning using
K-Nearest Neighbor classifier (KNN) and Self Organizing
Map (SOM) respectively. This technique is useful for online
classification due to very less computational complexity.

Webinar: Designing a schema for a Data WarehouseFederico Razzoli
Are you new to data warehouses (DWH)? Do you need to check whether your data warehouse follows the best practices for a good design? In both cases, this webinar is for you.
A data warehouse is a central relational database that contains all measurements about a business or an organisation. This data comes from a variety of heterogeneous data sources, which includes databases of any type that back the applications used by the company, data files exported by some applications, or APIs provided by internal or external services.
But designing a data warehouse correctly is a hard task, which requires gathering information about the business processes that need to be analysed in the first place. These processes must be translated into so-called star schemas, which means, denormalised databases where each table represents a dimension or facts.
We will discuss these topics:
- How to gather information about a business;
- Understanding dictionaries and how to identify business entities;
- Dimensions and facts;
- Setting a table granularity;
- Types of facts;
- Types of dimensions;
- Snowflakes and how to avoid them;
- Expanding existing dimensions and facts.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
