This paper proposes a new cover selection method for steganography. We focus on the scenario that the available images for selection contain diversified sources, i.e., nature images and metaverse images. For the scenario, we design a targeted strategy to evaluate the suitability for steganography of a candidate image, which selects images according to the undetectability against steganalytic tools symmetrically. Firstly, steganalytic features of the candidate images are extracted. Then, the features are fed on a steganalytic classifier, and the possibility of carrying secret data is calculated for cover selection. As a result, the selected images are the best candidates to resist steganalysis. Experimental results show that our method performs better than existing cover selection schemes when checked by steganalytic tools.

Three-dimensional point cloud data generally contain complex scene information and diversified category structures. Existing point cloud semantic segmentation networks tend to learn feature information between sampled center points and their neighboring points, while ignoring the scale and structural information of the spatial context of the sampled center points. To address these issues, this paper introduces PointNAC (PointNet based on normal vector and attention copula feature enhancement), a network designed for point cloud semantic segmentation in large-scale complex scenes, which consists of the following two main modules: (1) The local stereoscopic feature-encoding module: this feature-encoding process incorporates distance, normal vectors, and angles calculated based on the cosine theorem, enabling the network to learn not only the spatial positional information of the point cloud but also the spatial scale and geometric structure; and (2) the copula-based similarity feature enhancement module. Based on the stereoscopic feature information, this module analyzes the correlation among points in the local neighborhood. It enhances the features of positively correlated points while leaving the features of negatively correlated points unchanged. By combining these enhancements, it effectively enhances the feature saliency within the same class and the feature distinctiveness between different classes. The experimental results show that PointNAC achieved an overall accuracy (OA) of 90.9% and a mean intersection over union (MIoU) of 67.4% on the S3DIS dataset. And on the Vaihingen dataset, PointNAC achieved an overall accuracy (OA) of 85.9% and an average F1 score of 70.6%. Compared to the segmentation results of other network models on public datasets, our algorithm demonstrates good generalization and segmentation capabilities.

The general-purpose Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN incorporates a hadronic calorimeter to register the energies of the charged and neutral hadrons produced in proton–proton collisions at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of 13.6 TeV. This calorimeter is located inside a superconducting solenoid that is 6 m in diameter and 12.5 m in length, generating a central magnetic flux density of 3.8 T. For operating optimally in the high pileup and high radiation environment of the High-Luminosity LHC, the existing CMS endcap calorimeters will be replaced with a new high granularity calorimeter (HGCal) with an electromagnetic section and a hadronic section in each of the two endcaps. The hadronic section of the HGCal will include 44 stainless-steel absorber plates with a relative permeability value well below 1.05. The volume occupied by 22 plates in each endcap is about 21 m3. The calculation of the axial electromagnetic forces acting on the absorber plates is a crucial element in designing the mechanical construction of the device. With a three-dimensional computer model of the CMS magnet, the axial forces on each absorber plate were calculated, and the dependence of forces on the central magnetic flux density value is presented. The method of calculation and the obtained results are discussed.

The capacitated vehicle routing problem (CVRP) is regarded as an NP-hard problem. Moreover, the CVRP is described as a model that can be used in many applications such as transport, logistics, and distribution. The exact algorithms can find exact optimal solutions on the small-sized problem instances; however, for large-sized instances it is difficult to find the exact optimal solutions in polynomial time. This reason motivated the researchers to present heuristic/metaheuristic algorithms to solve large-sized problem instances within a reasonable computational time. One of the good algorithms that deal with the CVRP is the ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm. Several ACO algorithms have been suggested in the literature, such as the ant system (AS) algorithm, ant colony system (ACS) algorithm, and so on. On the other hand, ACO is designed to solve the path problem that finds the best way. However, this algorithm still lacks exploratory mechanisms, which results in premature convergence and stagnation issues. Therefore, we propose to develop an enhanced ACS (EACS) algorithm for solving the CVRP based on subpaths. In our proposed algorithm, we propose to utilize the K-nearest neighbour (KNN) algorithm for finding the best initial solution and then enhance the diversity mechanism of the proposed algorithm by avoiding the generation of the same solution using subpaths. This uses the diversity of the generated solution to find a better solution with a shorter route in a reasonable amount of computational time. Furthermore, we propose to apply the three-opt algorithm to the completed subtour and the k-opt algorithm to the subpath gained from the experience of the subpath. Finally, to verify the effectiveness of the proposed EACS algorithm, the algorithm is tested on some CVRP instances and is compared with one of the state-of-the-art methods, namely, the enhanced simulated annealing algorithm. The comparative study showed a better performance of our EACS compared to the enhanced simulated annealing algorithm.

A formalism for the experimental analysis of mesons produced by a beam of linearly polarized photons is presented. This formalism introduces a more general use of the reflectivity operator. The goal is to recognize resonances in cross-sections, their associated quantum numbers, and production mechanisms by performing partial wave analysis of multiple-meson final states.

In this paper, different aspects of the concept of spin are studied. The most well-established one is, of course, the quantum mechanical aspect: spin is a broken symmetry in the sense that the solutions of the Dirac equation tend to have directional properties that cannot be seen in the equation itself. It has been clear since the early days of quantum mechanics that this has something to do with the indefinite metric in Lorentz geometry, but the mechanism behind this connection is elusive. Although spin is not the same as rotation in the usual sense, there must certainly be a close relationship between these concepts. And, a possible way to investigate this connection is to instead start from the underlying geometry in general relativity. Is there a reason why rotating motion in Lorentz geometry should be more natural than non-rotating motion? In a certain sense, the answer turns out to be yes. But, it is by no means easy to see what this should correspond to in the usual quantum mechanical picture. On the other hand, it seems very unlikely that the similarities should be just coincidental. The interpretation of the author is that this can be a golden opportunity to investigate the interplay between these two theories.

A self-diffusiophoretic problem is considered for a chemically active dimer consisting of two equal touching spherical colloids that are exposed to different fixed-flux and fixed-rate surface reactions. A new analytic solution for the autophoretic mobility of such a catalytic Janus dimer is presented in the limit of a small Péclet number and linearization of the resulting Robin-type boundary value problem for the harmonic solute concentration. Explicit solutions in terms of the physical parameters are first obtained for the uncoupled electrostatic and hydrodynamic problems. The dimer mobility is then found by employing the reciprocal theorem depending on the surface slip velocity and on the normal component of the shear stress acting on the inert dimer. Special attention is given to the limiting case of a Janus dimer composed of an inert sphere and a chemically active sphere where the fixed-rate reaction (Damköhler number) is infinitely large. Examples are given, comparing the numerical and approximate analytic solutions of the newly developed theory. Singular points arising in the model are discussed for a dimer with a fixed-rate reaction, and the flow field around the dimer is also analysed. The new developed theory introduces a fast way to compute the mobility of a freely suspended dimer and the induced flow field around it, and thus can also serve as a sub grid scale model for a multi-scale flow simulation.

In the three-dimensional culture model, the breeding basket of the culture area is symmetrical and it is important to control the dissolved oxygen in the symmetrical region to improve the culture efficiency. Practical engineering issues, such as the influence of flow rate, pH, water temperature, and biological oxygen consumption on the dissolved oxygen content in the circulating water culture system, must be considered along with the presence of modeling errors in the control model. The authors propose an adaptive anti-disturbance control strategy for dissolved oxygen that combines nonlinear disturbance observation with an adaptive sliding model control. Initially, a dynamic model for controlling dissolved oxygen in a recirculating water aquaculture system was developed. The model considers external disturbances like artificial oxygenation, abrupt changes in system flow, and variations in culture oxygen consumption. Secondly, to enhance the robustness and accuracy of controlling dissolved oxygen concentration, the paper introduces a nonlinear adaptive disturbance observer for real-time estimation and observation of external disturbances and system uncertainties. This is accompanied by a sliding-mode control-based adaptive anti-disturbance strategy. Lastly, the simulation results demonstrate that the control strategy proposed in this paper shows resistance to system uncertainties and unknown external disturbances. Furthermore, it reduces the model accuracy requirements for the controller and proves to be suitable for accurately controlling dissolved oxygen in circulating water systems.
