Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), one of the meta-heuristic methods used to solve optimization problems, Eberhart and Dr. It is an intuitive optimization technique that is categorized by population-based herd intelligence developed by Kennedy.
Sharing information in birds and fish, like people speaking or otherwise sharing information, points to social intelligence.
The PSO was developed by inspiring birds to use each other in their orientation and inspired by the social behavior of fish swarms.
In PSO, the individuals forming the population are called particles, each of which is assumed to move in the state space, and each piece carries its potential solution.
Each piece can remember the best situation and the particles can exchange information among themselves

DriP PSO- A fast and inexpensive PSO for drifting problem spacesZubin Bhuyan
Particle Swarm Optimization is a class of stochastic, population based optimization techniques which are mostly suitable for static problems. However, real world optimization problems are time variant, i.e., the problem space changes over time. Several researches have been done to address this dynamic optimization problem using Particle Swarms. In this paper we probe the issues of tracking and optimizing Particle Swarms in a dynamic system where the problem-space drifts in a particular direction. Our assumption is that the approximate amount of drift is known, but the direction of the drift is unknown. We propose a Drift Predictive PSO (DriP-PSO) model which does not incur high computation cost, and is very fast and accurate. The main idea behind this technique is to use a few stagnant particles to determine the approximate direction in which the problem-space is drifting so that the particle velocities may be adjusted accordingly in the subsequent iteration of the algorithm.

Finding Meaning in Points, Areas and Surfaces: Spatial Analysis in RRevolution Analytics
Everything happens somewhere and spatial analysis attempts to use location as an explanatory variable. Such analysis is made complex by the very many ways we habitually record spatial location, the complexity of spatial data structures, and the wide variety of possible domain-driven questions we might ask. One option is to develop and use software for specific types of spatial data, another is to use a purpose-built geographical information system (GIS), but determined work by R enthusiasts has resulted in a multiplicity of packages in the R environment that can also be used.

ODSC India 2018: Topological space creation & Clustering at BigData scaleKuldeep Jiwani
Every data has an inherent natural geometry associated with it. We are generally influenced by how the world visually appears to us and apply the same flat Euclidean geometry to data. The data geometry could be curved, may have holes, distances cannot be defined in all cases. But if we still impose Euclidean geometry on it, then we may be distorting the data space and also destroying the information content inside it.
In the space of BigData world we have to regularly handle TBs of data and extract meaningful information from it. We have to apply many Unsupervised Machine Learning techniques to extract such information from the data. Two important steps in this process is building a topological space that captures the natural geometry of the data and then clustering in that topological space to obtain meaningful clusters.
This talk will walk through "Data Geometry" discovery techniques, first analytically and then via applied Machine learning methods. So that the listeners can take back, hands on techniques of discovering the real geometry of the data. The attendees will be presented with various BigData techniques along with showcasing Apache Spark code on how to build data geometry over massive data lakes.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Application of particle swarm optimization in 3 dimensional travelling salesman problem on the globe
1. APPLICATION OF PARTICLE SWARM
OPTIMIZATION IN 3-DIMENSIONAL
TRAVELLING SALESMAN PROBLEM
ONTHE GLOBE
Maad M. Mijwel
2016
2. Travelling Salesman Problem
• TSP is a problem that must be solved by a salesperson who must travel back to
the starting point by traveling all cities in the list with minimal cost.
• Criteria to be optimized in the problem can be cost, time, money or distance
values
• The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) can be expressed as a Hamiltonian cycle
that is used in modeling data in computer science and handled within the
framework of graph theory.
3. Particle Swarm Optimization
• Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), one of the meta-heuristic methods used to solve
optimization problems, Eberhart and Dr. It is an intuitive optimization technique that is
categorized by population-based herd intelligence developed by Kennedy.
• Sharing information in birds and fish, like people speaking or otherwise sharing information,
points to social intelligence.
• The PSO was developed by inspiring birds to use each other in their orientation and inspired by
the social behavior of fish swarms.
• In PSO, the individuals forming the population are called particles, each of which is assumed to
move in the state space, and each piece carries its potential solution.
• Each piece can remember the best situation and the particles can exchange information
among themselves.
4. IMPLEMENTING THEWORKER AND IMPORTANT
• In this work,TSP is solved by PSO algorithm for randomly placed points on the sphere from 3D shapes.
• With this study, it is possible to make use of this method for each criterion to optimize the flights that
the aircraft, such as jet or plane, moving on the surface of the earth that first comes to mind with
spherical similarity.
5. Sphere Mathematics
• The sphere is a three-dimensional object, an object created by the
equidistant points from a fixed point in space. Each point spreads at
an equal distance (radius r) from the center of the globe in three
dimensions (x, y, z) is located on the surface of the globe.
• 𝑟 = 𝑥2 + 𝑦2 + 𝑧2
6. • The circle passing through the center of the globe and bounded by the sphere
is large.The great circle on earth is the equator of the world.
• The larger circle becomes more important when it is made aware of the
shortest distance between two points on the sphere along its lower section.
• The shortest path between two points is called geodesic.
Sphere Mathematics
7. Mathematical Presentation of Points on the Sphere
• Inclined echolastic surfaces are two-dimensional objects, whose positions on the surface are defined
by the u and v parameters. A coordinate position on the surface is represented by the parametric
vector function in the function of the u and v parameters for the Cartesian coordinate values x, y, z.
• 𝑃 (𝑢) = (𝑥 (𝑢, 𝑣) 𝑦 (𝑢, 𝑣) 𝑧 (𝑢, 𝑣))
• Each coordinate value is a function of two surface parameters u and v that can vary from 0 to 1.
• Coordinates are expressed by the following equations for a spherical surface originating at the center,
where r is the radius of curvature.
• 𝑥 (𝑢, 𝑣) = 𝑟.cos (2π𝑢) .sin (π𝑣)
• 𝑦 (𝑢, 𝑣) = 𝑟.sin (2π𝑢) .sin (π𝑣)
• 𝑧 (𝑢, 𝑣) = 𝑟.cos (π𝑣)
• The u parameter describes the constant latitude lines on the surface and the v parameter describes the
fixed longitude lines.
8. • x, y, z coordinates for different values of u and v parameters:
u v x y z
0 0 0 0 1
0 0.5 1 0 6.123233e-17

Mathematical Presentation of Points on the Sphere
9. Finding the shortest distance between two points on the globe
The shortest distance between two points (p1, p2) on a spherical
surface is the arc length of the large space.
That is, V1 and V2 can be used as the angle of theta (θ) in radians
between two vectors.
V1 · V2 = P1XP2X + P1YP2Y + P1ZP2Z
the shortest path formula is as follows:
θ = arccos( V1 · V2 )
The problem is that EuclideanTSP is different.
Because the shortest distance between ((pi and pj) ) 2 points is calculated as the 3D Euclidean distance in the
3D EuclideanTSP, our problem is calculated using the arc length.
The distance matrix of the points on the sphere is the same as the symmetric TSP. Distance (pi : pj) =
Distance (pj : pi)
10. Unit Sphere Surface-On-TSP Solution Using PSO
• TheTSP to be applied on the sphere differs from normalTSP problems.
• The salesperson can only navigate points located on the surface of the sphere.
• The only different restriction on this problem is that the points are on the surface, not inside the circle.
• In this study, solutions were developed for a certain number of point clusters using PSO.
11. PSO's probing-adapted general structure
For each particle
Bring fragment to start position
End
Do
For each particle
Calculate eligibility value (turn length)
If the eligibility value (lap length) is better than pbest,
Set the current tour length as new pbest
End
Set the best of the pbest values found by all the particles to
the gbest of all the particles (the shortest lap length)
For each particle
Calculate the velocities of particles
Update particle locations
End
While the maximum number of iterations or until a minimum
error condition is reached.
12. • According to this general structure, initially the starting individuals of the PSO algorithm are created
randomly.
• A distance matrix is created in which all the points of each of the points are kept at distances.
• With the distance matrix, the fitness values of each individual are calculated.
• Individuals with minimum turn length from individuals are identified as global best.
• After finding these two best values; particle, velocity and position are updated in order.

17. Conclusions and Recommendations
• The adaptation of theTSP to the sphere and the proposed method are especially important for the movement
planning on the surface of the earth.
• Planes etc. moving through the earth's surface. vehicles can benefit from this method in optimizing problems
such as cost-time in the travel of coordinates for certain reasons such as transportation, travel, defense.
• It will be useful in this work to understand particle behaviors on every global object in the real world.
• In future studies, other methods used in theTSP solution (eg Ant Colony Optimization-ACO) can be tested in
the globalTSP solution.Also PSO and ACO etc. GlobalTSP problems can be addressed by using hybrid and
hierarchical methods.
• This method can also be tested on the geometric shapes that can actually be adapted as well as on the curtain.
