Guest Editors' Introduction: Multimedia Metadata and Semantic Management
2009
This special issue assesses the current status and technologies and describes major challenges and proper solutions for effective multimedia production and management related to evolving Semantic Web strategies. The included articles, which cover different facets of the semantic management of multimedia and multimedia metadata from retrieval and processing to consumption and presentation, represent a step forward in research targeted at improving aspects of the semantic metadata life cycle.
Towards a methodology for semantic and context-aware mobile learning
2013
International audience; Internet and mobile devices open the way towards mobile learning (m-learning), offering new opportunities to extend learning beyond the traditional teacher-led classroom. M-learning is not only any form of teaching or studying that takes place when the user interacts with a mobile device. It is more than just using a mobile device to access resources and communicate with others. It should take account of the constant mobile situation of the learner. The challenge here is to exploit this continually changing situation with a system that can dynamically recognize and adapt educational resources and services to the "context" in which the learner operates (localization, …
Semantic aware RSS query algebra
2010
International audience; Existing XML query algebras are not fully appropriate to retrieve RSS news items mainly due to three reasons: 1) RSS is text rich and its content is dependent on the wording and verbification of the author, thus semantic aware operators are needed; 2) news items are dynamic and consequently time oriented retrieval is needed; 3) a news item may evolve through time, or overlap with other news items and hence identifying relationships between items is also needed. In this paper, we aim to solve these issues by providing a dedicated RSS algebra based on semantic-aware operators that consider RSS characteristics. The provided operators are application domain specific and …
Federated Learning for Zero-Day Attack Detection in 5G and Beyond V2X Networks
2023
Deploying Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) on top of 5G and Beyond networks (5GB) makes them vulnerable to increasing vectors of security and privacy attacks. In this context, a wide range of advanced machine/deep learning-based solutions have been designed to accurately detect security attacks. Specifically, supervised learning techniques have been widely applied to train attack detection models. However, the main limitation of such solutions is their inability to detect attacks different from those seen during the training phase, or new attacks, also called zero-day attacks. Moreover, training the detection model requires significant data collection and labeling, which increases th…
Network architectures and energy efficiency for high performance data centers
2017
The increasing trend to migrate applications, computation and storage into more robust systems leads to the emergence of mega data centers hosting tens of thousands of servers. As a result, designing a data center network that interconnects this massive number of servers, and providing efficient and fault-tolerant routing service are becoming an urgent need and a challenge that will be addressed in this thesis. Since this is a hot research topic, many solutions are proposed like adapting new interconnection technologies and new algorithms for data centers. However, many of these solutions generally suffer from performance problems, or can be quite costly. In addition, devoted efforts have n…
Query-preserving watermarking of relational databases and XML documents
2011
Watermarking allows robust and unobtrusive insertion of information in a digital document. During the last few years, techniques have been proposed for watermarking relational databases or Xml documents, where information insertion must preserve a specific measure on data (for example the mean and variance of numerical attributes). In this article we investigate the problem of watermarking databases or Xml while preserving a set of parametric queries in a specified language, up to an acceptable distortion. We first show that unrestricted databases can not be watermarked while preserving trivial parametric queries. We then exhibit query languages and classes of structures that allow guarante…
Arbres couvrants presque disjoints
2015
International audience; Dans un réseau, la recherche de plusieurs arbres couvrants avec des propriétés intéressantes a amené à l'introduc-tion de plusieurs notions : les arbres couvrants arête-disjoints, les arbres indépendants enracinés en un sommet et les arbres complètement indépendants. Afin de généraliser ces notions, nous introduisons la notion d'arbres couvrants (i, j)-disjoints, où i et j sont respectivement le nombre maximum de noeuds internes et d'arêtes communs aux arbres couvrants. Nous montrons que déterminer s'il existe deux arbres couvrants (i, j)-disjoints dans un graphe G est un problème NP-complet pour i et j quelconques, et nous déterminons les valeurs minimales de i et j…
A Modularity Backbone Extraction Method for Weighted Complex Networks
2022
The exponential growth in the size of real-world networks is a major barrier to analyzing their structure and dynamics. Thus, reducing the network's size while maintaining its topological features is highly significant. As community structure is one of the fundamental fingerprints of real-world networks, this work proposes a new node-filtering backbone extraction method to preserve the network's community structure.
