摘要：
Deep learning-based side-channel attacks (DL-SCA) are favored for their strong key recovery capabilities. However, their implementation is based on the attacker being able to manipulate a cloned device to build an attack model, which means that the attacker needs to know secret information in advance. The non-profiled side-channel attacks (NP-SCA) methods can complete the key recovery without knowing the secret information. Differential Deep Learning Analysis (DDLA) is the first NP-DLSCA method proposed in CHES2019, and several improved versions appeared later. In these methods, the bad quality of the raw traces, such as noise, random delay, etc., is often ignored, which limits the efficiency of key recovery. In this work, the conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN) is introduced and a novel framework NPSCA-CGAN is proposed to optimize traces in non-profiled SCA scenarios. We apply CGAN in non-profiled attacks and use plaintext to do trace labeling that optimizes the raw traces by training the generator to learn the label traces. The convolutional module and plaintext feature are added to the generator network to adapt various countermeasures. Moreover, a new traces quality evaluation metric average relative signal-to-noise ratio (AR-SNR) is proposed for non-profiled attack scenarios, which can directly reflect the performance of the traces in practical attack. The method is applied to unprotected, unaligned, and masked traces respectively. The experimental results indicate that it can enormously optimize the quality of the traces and improve the efficiency of non-profiled side-channel attacks.
摘要：
Classifying hyperspectral images (HSIs) is a key challenge in remote sensing, with convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and transformer models becoming leading techniques in this area. CNNs, while effective, often struggle to adequately capture intricate semantic features, and increasing network depth leads to significantly higher computational costs. Conversely, transformers, despite their efficacy in modeling spectral-spatial dependencies, introduce significant computational overhead due to their complexity. Mamba, leveraging the state space model (SSM), presents a compelling alternative that efficiently captures long-range dependencies in HSIs while ensuring computational efficiency with linear complexity. To improve the classification performance of HSIs by simultaneously extracting rich local and global spatial-spectral features, as well as deep semantic features, while reducing the computational complexity of the model, this paper proposes an innovative hybrid large selective kernel and convolutional additive self-attention model (HLSK-CASMamba) for HSI classification. First, we design a feature extraction module that combines a 3D convolution layer, a 2D convolution layer, and a large selective kernel (LSK) network, enabling the efficient extraction of both depth-related and spatial details information from HSIs. Second, we propose a novel CASMamba model, with its core module, CAS-VSSM, combining convolutional additive self-attention (CAS) and the vision state-space sequence model (VSSM). This fusion leverages the local feature extraction of convolutions, spatial dependency modeling of self-attention, and long-range dependency handling of VSSM, enhancing the capture of both local and global context while ensuring computational efficiency. Finally, we incorporate the KANLinear module to replace the traditional linear layer, enhancing sample label acquisition. Extensive evaluations on three popular HSIs show that, under 10% training samples, the proposed method achieves 99.57% accuracy on the Houston 2013 dataset, 99.96% on the Botswana dataset, and 99.92% on the University of Pavia dataset, outperforming various existing advanced techniques.

摘要：
Label distribution learning techniques can significantly enhance the effectiveness of side-channel analysis. However, this method relies on using probability density functions to estimate the relationships between labels. The settings of parameters play a crucial role in the impact of the attacks. This study introduces a non-parametric statistical method to calculate the distribution between labels, specifically employing smoothing with the Gaussian kernel function and adjusting bandwidth. Then, the aggregation of the results from each label processed by the Gaussian kernel facilitates a hypothesis-free estimation of the label distribution. This method accurately represents the actual leakage distribution, speeding up guess entropy convergence. Secondly, we exploit similarities between profiling traces, proposing an analysis scheme for sample correlation locally of label distribution learning. Furthermore, Signal to-Noise Ratio (SNR) is employed to re-extract and reduce dataset dimensions to 500 power consumption points, resulting in noise reduction. Our results showcase the successful training of 800 profiling traces using our method for sample correlation locally of label distribution learning, with the findings indicating its exceptional performance.

摘要：
The processing of large volumes of time series data across various fields presents significant challenges, particularly when it comes to effectively managing floating-point numbers. Current dual precision floating-point lossless compression algorithms often struggle to deliver exceptional performance on diverse datasets, highlighting their inherent limitations. To address this issue, we propose a novel method called the Heuristic Genetic Algorithm Parameter Optimizer for Lossless Compression of Time Series Floating Point Data (HGA-ACTF). This method features a highly effective parameter optimizer designed specifically for compression algorithms that utilize leading zeros. The combination of our parameter optimizer and the HGA-ACTF algorithm strategy has been proven to outperform existing leading compression algorithms across multiple fields. This approach not only enhances the compression ratio but also significantly reduces both compression and decompression times. In our comparative study, we evaluated the HGA-ACTF algorithm against eleven well-performing algorithms and a variant of the algorithm, integrating our parameter optimizer and algorithmic strategy into other adaptable algorithms, and demonstrating notable improvements. Experimental results indicate that the HGA-ACTF algorithm achieves an average compression ratio improvement of 38.87%, with some datasets showing improvements of up to 54.36%. Our approach effectively addresses the transmission and storage of time series data, significantly reducing the overhead associated with data processing.

摘要：
Hyperspectral images (HSIs) contain rich spectral and spatial information, motivating the development of a novel circulant singular spectrum analysis (CiSSA) and multiscale local ternary pattern fusion method for joint spectral-spatial feature extraction and classification. Due to the high dimensionality and redundancy in HSIs, principal component analysis (PCA) is used during preprocessing to reduce dimensionality and enhance computational efficiency. CiSSA is then applied to the PCA-reduced images for robust spatial pattern extraction via circulant matrix decomposition. The spatial features are combined with the global spectral features from PCA to form a unified spectral-spatial feature set (SSFS). Local ternary pattern (LTP) is further applied to the principal components (PCs) to capture local grayscale and rotation-invariant texture features at multiple scales. Finally, the performance of the SSFS and multiscale LTP features is evaluated separately using a support vector machine (SVM), followed by decision-level fusion to combine results from each pipeline based on probability outputs. Experimental results on three popular HSIs show that, under 1% training samples, the proposed method achieves 95.98% accuracy on the Indian Pines dataset, 98.49% on the Pavia University dataset, and 92.28% on the Houston2013 dataset, outperforming several traditional classification methods and state-of-the-art deep learning approaches.

The objective of image-based virtual try-on is to seamlessly integrate clothing onto a target image, generating a realistic representation of the character in the specified attire. However, existing virtual try-on methods frequently encounter challenges, including misalignment between the body and clothing, noticeable artifacts, and the loss of intricate garment details. To overcome these challenges, we introduce a two-stage high-resolution virtual try-on framework that integrates an attention mechanism, comprising a garment warping stage and an image generation stage. During the garment warping stage, we incorporate a channel attention mechanism to effectively retain the critical features of the garment, addressing challenges such as the loss of patterns, colors, and other essential details commonly observed in virtual try-on images produced by existing methods. During the image generation stage, with the aim of maximizing the utilization of the information proffered by the input image, the input features undergo double sampling within the normalization procedure, thereby enhancing the detail fidelity and clothing alignment efficacy of the output image. Experimental evaluations conducted on high-resolution datasets validate the effectiveness of the proposed method. Results demonstrate significant improvements in preserving garment details, reducing artifacts, and achieving superior alignment between the clothing and body compared to baseline methods, establishing its advantage in generating realistic and high-quality virtual try-on images.

摘要：
Currently, Camouflaged Object Detection (COD) methods often rely on single-view feature perception, which struggles to fully capture camouflaged objects due to environmental interference such as background clutter, lighting variations, and viewpoint changes. To address this, we propose the Multi-view Collaboration Network (MCNet), inspired by human visual strategies for complex scene analysis. MCNet incorporates multiple perspectives for enhanced feature extraction. The global perception module takes the original, far, and near views, using different large-kernel convolutions and multi-head attention mechanisms for global feature embedding. In parallel, the local perception module processes the tilted, projected, and color-jittered views, extracting fine-grained local features through multi-branch deep convolutions and dilated convolutions. To facilitate deep interaction between global and local features, we introduce the hybrid interactive module, which explores the correlation of multi-view feature information and adaptively fuses features. For feature decoding, the dynamic pyramid shrinkage module integrates dynamic gated convolutions with a pyramid shrinkage mechanism, progressively aggregating semantic features through a hierarchical shrinking strategy and group fusion strategy. Experimental results on popular COD benchmark datasets show that MCNet outperforms 18 state-of-the-art methods.

摘要：
With the rapid advancement of digital technology and the pervasive use of media information, ensuring image security and efficient transmission has become increasingly critical. Therefore, this paper proposes a novel 4D hyperchaotic system incorporating a compression encryption algorithm that integrates generalized Fibonacci matrices and heterogeneous scrambling. Firstly, the proposed scheme constructs a novel hyperchaotic system, and its dynamic characteristics are analyzed to validate its rich dynamical behavior, exhibiting high randomness and sensitivity to initial conditions. Secondly, during the compression phase, chaotic sequences regulate image compression, aiming to minimize the number of parameters involved in the encryption process. Thirdly, in the multi-channel heterogeneous scrambling method, the RGB channels are individually subjected to 2D non-equal-length Arnold scrambling, pseudo-random permutation, and higher-order Peano curve fractal scrambling at the pixel level. Furthermore, the scrambling parameters for each channel are dynamically governed by independent chaotic sequences. Finally, this paper proposes a cross-channel nonlinear diffusion algorithm leveraging a 3D dynamic Fibonacci matrix. Through the construction of a spatially coupled encryption scheme, the proposed method ensures triple-layer protection at the pixel, channel, and spatial levels. Experimental results and performance analysis indicate that, at a compression ratio of 0.5, the PSNR exceeds 30 dB, while the SSIM remains above 0.90, reflecting high image reconstruction quality. In addition, the NPCR and the UACI reach approximately 99.60% and 33.46%, respectively. These results confirm that the proposed compression-encryption scheme is highly secure and demonstrates strong resilience against both differential and brute-force attacks.

Three-dimensional human pose estimation;Transformer;GCN;Prior knowledge
摘要：
Transformer-based approaches have significantly driven recent progress in three-dimensional human pose estimation. However, existing transformer-based approaches are still deficient in capturing localized features, and they lack task-specific a priori information by obtaining queries, keys, and values through simple linear mappings. Existing methods lack effective human constraints for model training. We introduce the Spatial Encoding Graph Convolutional Network Transformer (SEGCNFormer), designed to enhance model capacity in capturing local features. In addition, we propose a Temporal-Aware Network, which generates queries, keys, and values possessing a priori knowledge of human motion, enabling the model to better understand the structural information of human poses. Finally, we leverage the knowledge of human anatomy and motion to design the Human Structural Science Loss, which performs a rationality assessment of human actions and imposes physical constraints on the generated poses. Our method outperforms existing methods on the Human3.6M dataset in both 27 and 81 sampling frames, and our predicted poses are closer to the actual poses with less error. For the existing three issues, we proposed effective methods and conducted targeted experiments, which confirmed the effectiveness of our strategies.

摘要：
Deep learning algorithms are increasingly employed to exploit side-channel information, such as power consumption and electromagnetic leakage from hardware devices, significantly enhancing attack capabilities. However, relying solely on power traces for side-channel information often requires adequate domain knowledge. To address this limitation, this work proposes a new attack scheme. Firstly, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)-based plaintext-extended bilinear feature fusion model is designed. Secondly, multi-model intermediate layers are fused and trained, yielding in the increase of the amount of effective information and generalization ability. Finally, the model is employed to predict the output probability of three public side-channel datasets (e.g. ASCAD, AES
$$\_$$
HD, and AES
$$\_$$
RD), and analyze the recovery key guessing entropy for each key to efficiently assess attack efficiency. Experimental results showcase that the plaintext-extended bilinear feature fusion model can effectively enhance the Side-Channel Attack (SCA) capabilities and prediction performance. Deploying the proposed method, the number of traces required for a successful attack on the ASCAD
$$\_$$
R dataset is significantly reduced to less than 914, representing an 70.5% reduction in traces compared to the network in Convolutional Neural Network-Visual Geometry Group (CNNVGG16) with plaintext, which incorporating plaintext features before the fully connected layer. Compared to existing solutions, the proposed scheme requires only 80% of the power traces for the attack mask design using only 75 epochs. As a result, the power of the proposed method is well proved through the different experiments and comparison processes.

摘要：
Text-to-image generation is a challenging and significant research task. It aims to synthesize high-quality images that match the given descriptive statements. Existing methods still have problems in generating semantic information fusion insufficiently, and the generated images cannot represent the descriptive statements properly. Therefore, A novel method named EMF-GAN(Efficient Multilayer Fusion Generative Adversarial Network) is proposed. It uses a Multilayer Fusion Module (MF Module) and Efficient Multi-Scale Attention Module (EMA Module) to fuse the semantic information into the feature maps gradually. It realizes the full utilization of the semantic information and obtains high-quality realistic images. Extensive experimental results show that our EMF-GAN is highly competitive in image generation quality and semantic consistency. Compared with the state-of-the-art methods, EMF-GAN shows significant performance improvement on both CUB (FID from 14.81 to 10.74) and COCO (FID from 19.32 to 16.86) datasets. It can generate photorealistic images with richer details and text-image consistency. Code can be found at https://github.com/zxcnmmmmm/EMF-GAN-master .

摘要：
Epicanthus refers to the longitudinal curved skin folds that cover the medial canthus, which affect aesthetics due to covering the medial canthus angle and lacrimal mound. Various surgical methods exist for correcting epicanthus, each with its own set of advantages and disadvantages, and lacking a standardized operational protocol, making it difficult for beginners to master and for clinical promotion.This article aims to explore a standardized and simplified five-step procedure for treating epicanthus and report our clinical experience and effectiveness. A retrospective analysis was conducted from October 2019 to September 2022 at the Burn and Plastic Surgery Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of South China University. A consistent team of doctors utilized a five-step method to correct the medial canthus in 306 patients with epicanthus. All patients were followed up for more than 6 months. We observed 306 patients and used iris diameter as a reference value to subjectively evaluate the clinical effect through photo evaluation and scar scoring.Objective evaluation of clinical efficacy was achieved through the inter canthal distance (ICD) and palpebral fissure length (PFL). The study included 295 females and 11 males, with an average follow-up time of 14.2 months.The average increase rate of PFL is 14.9%, and the average reduction rate of ICD is 8.6%. Two cases of bleeding and swelling were promptly treated, and no long-term complications were left. 85 cases of scar hyperplasia were treated with KELO-COTE® silicone gel, triamcinolone injection, and appropriate laser therapy in combination, and the scars gradually resolved after 12 months. 4 cases of recurrence and 2 cases of asymmetry underwent reoperation. Observing the satisfaction and effectiveness rate of 306 patients, the overall satisfaction and effectiveness rate reached over 95%. About 96.40% of patients were satisfied with the surgery and would recommend it to their family and friends. The paired t-test was used for statistical analysis, and the results showed statistical significance. The five-step method for correcting epicanthus proves to be a simple, efficient, and reliable technique that is easily mastered by beginners. It boasts high patient satisfaction and carries a low risk of scar formation.
摘要：
Rice is a staple food for nearly half the global population and, with rising living standards, the demand for high-quality grain is increasing. Chalkiness, a key determinant of appearance quality, requires accurate detection for effective quality evaluation. While traditional 2D imaging has been used for chalkiness detection, its inherent inability to capture complete 3D morphology limits its suitability for precision agriculture and breeding. Although micro-CT has shown promise in 3D chalk phenotype analysis, high-throughput automated 3D detection for multiple grains remains a challenge, hindering practical applications. To address this, we propose a high-throughput 3D chalkiness detection method using micro-CT and VSE-UNet. Our method begins with non-destructive 3D imaging of grains using micro-CT. For the accurate segmentation of kernels and chalky regions, we propose VSE-UNet, an improved VGG-UNet with an SE attention mechanism for enhanced feature learning. Through comprehensive training optimization strategies, including the Dice focal loss function and dropout technique, the model achieves robust and accurate segmentation of both kernels and chalky regions in continuous CT slices. To enable high-throughput 3D analysis, we developed a unified 3D detection framework integrating isosurface extraction, point cloud conversion, DBSCAN clustering, and Poisson reconstruction. This framework overcomes the limitations of single-grain analysis, enabling simultaneous multi-grain detection. Finally, 3D morphological indicators of chalkiness are calculated using triangular mesh techniques. Experimental results demonstrate significant improvements in both 2D segmentation (7.31% improvement in chalkiness IoU, 2.54% in mIoU, 2.80% in mPA) and 3D phenotypic measurements, with VSE-UNet achieving more accurate volume and dimensional measurements compared with the baseline. These improvements provide a reliable foundation for studying chalkiness formation and enable high-throughput phenotyping.

摘要：
Current camouflaged object detection (COD) methods primarily rely on a direct mapping from image to mask. However, due to the inherent semantic and structural gap between the image and its corresponding mask, the learned feature representations often exhibit poor generalization ability. To address this issue, we propose a novel intra-domain dual reconstruction framework, termed InDReCT, which reformulates the image-to-mask prediction as a cross-domain transfer task by simultaneously reconstructing both the input image and its corresponding mask. Within this framework, semantic knowledge is transferred through two reconstruction processes from different domains: image reconstruction (appearance domain) and mask reconstruction (structure domain), and is eventually integrated back into the image-to-mask prediction task. This dual reconstruction mechanism implicitly guides the network to extract hidden appearance semantics from image-to-image reconstruction and explicit structural information from mask-to-mask reconstruction, thereby enhancing the model’s generalization capability. Extensive experiments on three benchmark COD datasets and four downstream tasks demonstrate that InDReCT consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in both detection accuracy and generalization ability. Notably, on the widely-used COD10K dataset, InDReCT achieves a Mean E-measure ( E m ) of 95.6%, surpassing the latest state-of-the-art model CamoDiffusion by 1.6%. Code and models will be publicly available at: https://github.com/KungFuProgrammerle/InDReCT.

摘要：
Deep learning-assisted template attack (DLATA) is a novel side-channel attack (SCA) method proposed by Lichao Wu at CHES2022. It utilizes a triplet network to assist template attacks (TA), avoiding the redundant training and hyperparameter tuning required in traditional DL-based SCA methods. However, the training of the triplet network requires a large number of power samples due to its unique structure. We propose a new optimization scheme, in which the transfer learning (TL) technology is used to train multiple models on several similar datasets with fewer power traces, to mitigation the problem. The approach allows us to leverage pre-trained models to product a new mode on the another target dataset by fine-tuning weights so that significantly reduce the training cost for the triplet network while maintaining attack effectiveness. We remould the structure and dimensionality of similar datasets so that the models trained on them can perform effective transfer learning for training on the target dataset. Concretely, some of parameters and features obtained from pretraining can be used directly for the target task, while the rest only require fine-tuning. Evaluation and experimental validation on the public ASCAD dataset demonstrate that our method achieves or even surpasses the performance of the original method with a 90% reduction in the training set. These findings highlight the effectiveness of the proposed TL strategy in achieving robust attack performance in low-sample training environments.

With the rapid development of generative models, there is an increasing demand for universal fake image detectors. In this paper, we investigate the problem of fake image detection for the synthesis of generative models to detect fake images from multiple generative methods. Recent research methods explore the benefits of pre-trained models and mainly adopt a fixed paradigm of training additional classifiers separately, but we find that the fixed paradigm hinders the full learning of forgery features, leading to insufficient representation learning in the detector.The main reason is that the fixed paradigm pays too much attention to global features and neglects local features, which limits the ability of the model to perceive image details and leads to some information loss or confusion. In this regard, based on the pre-trained visual language space, our method introduces two core designs. First, we designed a Deep Window Triple Attention (DWTA) module. A similar dense sliding window strategy is adopted to capture multi-scale local abnormal patterns, and the sensitivity to generated artifacts is enhanced through the triple attention mechanism. Secondly, we proposed a Cross-Space Feature Alignment(CSFA) module. A two-way interactive channel between global features and local features is established, and the alignment loss function is used to achieve semantic alignment of cross-modal feature spaces. The aligned features are adaptively fused through a gating mechanism to obtain the final adaptive forged features. Experiments demonstrate that our method, when trained solely on ProGAN data, achieves superior cross-generator generalization: it attains an average accuracy of 94.7% on unseen GANs and generalizes to unseen diffusion models with 94% accuracy, surpassing existing methods by 2.1%.

摘要：
Securing terminal data transmission remains a critical challenge in Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) ecosystems, where conventional lightweight block ciphers struggle to reconcile security robustness with stringent resource constraints. Thus, A new lightweight block cipher named NBLBC is proposed to mitigate terminal data leakage vulnerabilities in NB-IoT. The proposed NBLBC features a double-layer, 8-branch MARS-like structure. A key contribution lies in the development of a double-layer hybrid linear layer, which significantly enhances the diffusion performance compared to traditional MARS-based designs. The nonlinear layer uses a top-down quantum gate search approach to design an S-box, achieving a quantum circuit depth of 55 (T-depth=7). For practical validation, an NB-IoT application framework is implemented using three Nexys A7 FPGA development boards. The NBLBC architecture delivers 1461.4 Gate Equivalents(GEs) hardware footprint (UMC 0.18 mu m process) with 6.84 mu J/bit energy consumption, achieving 20.5% area reduction and 50.36% energy consumption improvement over SKINNY.
摘要：
Significant energy challenges are faced in real-time secure data monitoring in intelligent environmental monitoring systems. A lightweight block cipher LECipher is proposed to provide security for intelligent environmental monitoring systems with low energy. Firstly, a generalized Feistel variant structure (GFS) is proposed, which has good diffusivity. Secondly, an 8-bit S-box generation scheme is constructed based on Boolean functions. The hardware area of the S-box only requires 25.32 Gate Equivalents (GE). Its hardware area has significant advantages compared with the currently published 8-bit S-boxes. Then, using XOR and cyclic shift operations combined with the recursive depth-first search (DFS) strategy in the linear layer. Two 8th-order binary involution circulant matrices are constructed. A 16th-order binary involution circulant matrix is constructed to further improve the security of the LECipher on this basis. The design idea of dynamic adjustment is adopted in the key schedule algorithm. More specially, the different key schedule operations are performed alternately every three rounds to improve the randomization of the round key. Encryption and decryption of LECipher require only 1542 GE and 6.50 mu J/bit on the UMC 0.18 mu m, according to a detailed hardware performance evaluation. The energy is reduced by 61% and 29% compared with the SKINNY and Midori ciphers, respectively. Furthermore, comprehensive security analyses show that LECipher maintains sufficient security boundaries. Finally, an experimental platform for encrypted transmission of intelligent environmental monitoring systems based on LECipher is established, which further verifies the feasibility of its application in internet of things (IoT) devices.

摘要：
Code performance optimization is crucial for improving the efficiency of software operation. Mastering the thinking and implementation strategies of code performance optimization is a basic quality that every programmer should possess. Based on the solution of finding perfect numbers within a specified range, a scheme was designed to demonstrate modern code performance optimization ideas and methods. This scheme includes analysis of redundant calculations in the code, multiple elimination methods, similarity problem association method, space-time reduction method, and multi-threaded parallel computing optimization methods. The results show that this optimization scheme can greatly improve the algorithm running efficiency of perfect number solving. In addition, the factorization method of perfect number prime factors proposed in the scheme can provide certain ideas for solving perfect number-related problems.

摘要：
Securing image transmissions has become critical as the demand for image sharing and storage grows. In some commercial uses, in order to achieve a balance between encryption security and efficiency, some researchers have tried to encrypt only the region of interest of the user in the image. In order to accurately encrypt region of interest images, this paper proposed a region of interest image encryption algorithm based on lifting scheme and object detection. The algorithm automatically identifies the region of interest in the image and encrypts it securely and effectively. Firstly, the region of interest in the image is detected using the object detection model, and the non-maximum suppression algorithm is modified to solve the problem that the detection box outputted by the object detection model does not completely contain the region of interest. Then the existing pixel extraction method for region of interest images is improved to extract the pixels from the region of interest images at a faster speed, which improves the overall efficiency of the algorithm. Finally, based on the thought of wavelet lifting transform, combined with chaotic system, a two-layer hybrid lifting scheme encryption algorithm is proposed to encrypt the extracted pixels. Experimental results and security analysis show that the algorithm proposed in this paper can effectively protect all objects at once with high security.
