The modern development of information security tools, along with the improvement of remote access methods, allows software and hardware to be audited without the need for direct access to the system under test. One of its components is related to the implementation of software on mobile ARM processor architectures. Within this direction of development, the approach that allows integrating Linux kernel-based distributions by introducing a virtual container chroot (change root) into the Android OS- based system and, consequently, performing penetration testing without the need to use personal computers is highlighted. An example of this approach is the Kali NetHunter distribution which allows remote system administration functionality through the KeX module. Besides the obvious advantages of KeX functionality, some disadvantages should also be mentioned: firstly, the low speed of GUI processing due to translation to remote hosts and the need to support translation at operating system level; secondly, the consumption of energy resources when using the desktop features of the KeX module. In order to solve the mentioned problems, a system of virtualization of energy-efficient container for testing the vulnerabilities of critical information objects has been developed and based on the principle of multi-containerization. The software of the system is represented by two components: an enlarged module for integration of the chroot container into the DeX environment (primary), and an enlarged module for ensuring energy efficiency using predictive neural network models based on variable time intervals (secondary). As a result of comparing the effectiveness of existing and implemented approaches in penetration testing, it is noted that the proposed system can be used in testing the security of particular platforms and systems, including highly sensitive information objects or resources.

Consciousness Disorders

AbstractObjectivesDisorders of consciousness are very big medical and social problem. Their variability, problems in precise definition and proper diagnosis make difficult assessing their causes and effectiveness of the therapy. In the paper we present our point of view to a problem of consciousness and its most common disorders.MethodsFor this moment scientists do not know exactly, if these disorders can be a result of simple but general mechanism, or a complex set of mechanisms, both on neural, molecular or system level. Presented in the paper simulations using neural network models, including biologically relevant consciousness’ modelling, help assess influence of specified causes.ResultsNonmotoric brain activity can play important role within diagnostic process as a supplementary method for motor capabilities. Simple brain sensory (e.g. visual) processing of both healthy subject and people with consciousness disorders help checking hypotheses in the area of consciousness’ disorders’ mechanisms, including associations between consciousness and its neural correlates.ConclusionsThe results are promising. Project announced herein will be developed and its next result will be presented in subsequent articles.

Diverse Data

The volume of data in diverse data formats from various data sources has led the way for a new drift in the digital world, Big Data. This article proposes sl-LSTM (sequence labelling LSTM), a neural network architecture that combines the effectiveness of typical LSTM models to perform sequence labeling tasks. This is a bi-directional LSTM which uses stochastic gradient descent optimization and combines two features of the existing LSTM variants: coupled input-forget gates for reducing the computational complexity and peephole connections that allow all gates to inspect the current cell state. The model is tested on different datasets and the results show that the integration of various neural network models can further improve the efficiency of approach for identifying sensitive information in Big data.

How much does stimulus input shape perception? The common-sense view is that our perceptions are representations of objects and their features and that the stimulus structures the perceptual object. The problem for this view concerns perceptual biases as responsible for distortions and the subjectivity of perceptual experience. These biases are increasingly studied as constitutive factors of brain processes in recent neuroscience. In neural network models the brain is said to cope with the plethora of sensory information by predicting stimulus regularities on the basis of previous experiences. Drawing on this development, this chapter analyses perceptions as processes. Looking at olfaction as a model system, it argues for the need to abandon a stimulus-centred perspective, where smells are thought of as stable percepts, computationally linked to external objects such as odorous molecules. Perception here is presented as a measure of changing signal ratios in an environment informed by expectancy effects from top-down processes.

The purpose of this research is the evaluation of artificial neural network models in the prediction of stresses in a 400 MVA power transformer winding conductor caused by the circulation of fault currents. The models were compared considering the training, validation, and test data errors’ behavior. Different combinations of hyperparameters were analyzed based on the variation of architectures, optimizers, and activation functions. The data for the process was created from finite element simulations performed in the FEMM software. The design of the Artificial Neural Network was performed using the Keras framework. As a result, a model with one hidden layer was the best suited architecture for the problem at hand, with the optimizer Adam and the activation function ReLU. The final Artificial Neural Network model predictions were compared with the Finite Element Method results, showing good agreement but with a much shorter solution time.

Uplift Resistance

Buried pipes are extensively used for oil transportation from offshore platforms. Under unfavorable loading combinations, the pipe’s uplift resistance may be exceeded, which may result in excessive deformations and significant disruptions. This paper presents findings from a series of small-scale tests performed on pipes buried in geogrid-reinforced sands, with the measured peak uplift resistance being used to calibrate advanced numerical models employing neural networks. Multilayer perceptron (MLP) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) primary structure types have been used to train two neural network models, which were then further developed using bagging and boosting ensemble techniques. Correlation coefficients in excess of 0.954 between the measured and predicted peak uplift resistance have been achieved. The results show that the design of pipelines can be significantly improved using the proposed novel, reliable and robust soft computing models.
