Trust Management in the Internet of Vehicles

Trust Management in the Internet of Vehicles

The Internet of Vehicles (IoV) is referred to as an efficient and inevitable convergence of the Internet of Things intelligent transportation systems edge / fog and cloud computing and big data all of which could be intelligently harvested for the cooperative vehicular safety and non-safety applications as well as cooperative mobility management. A secure and low-latency communication is therefore indispensable to meet the stringent performance requirements of the safety-critical vehicular applications. Whilst the challenges surrounding low latency are being addressed by the researchers in both academia and industry it is the security of an IoV network which is of paramount importance as a single malicious message is perfectly capable enough of jeopardizing the entire networking infrastructure and can prove fatal for the vehicular passengers and the vulnerable pedestrians. This book thus investigates the promising notion of trust in a bid to strengthen the resilience of the IoV networks. It not only introduces trust categorically in the context of an IoV network i. e. in terms of its fundamentals and salient characteristics but further envisages state-of-the-art trust models and intelligent trust threshold mechanisms for segregating both malicious and non-malicious vehicles. Furthermore open research challenges and recommendations for addressing the same are discussed in the same too. | Trust Management in the Internet of Vehicles

Modeling and Inverse Problems in the Presence of Uncertainty

Modeling and Inverse Problems in the Presence of Uncertainty

Modeling and Inverse Problems in the Presence of Uncertainty collects recent research—including the authors’ own substantial projects—on uncertainty propagation and quantification. It covers two sources of uncertainty: where uncertainty is present primarily due to measurement errors and where uncertainty is present due to the modeling formulation itself. After a useful review of relevant probability and statistical concepts the book summarizes mathematical and statistical aspects of inverse problem methodology including ordinary weighted and generalized least-squares formulations. It then discusses asymptotic theories bootstrapping and issues related to the evaluation of correctness of assumed form of statistical models. The authors go on to present methods for evaluating and comparing the validity of appropriateness of a collection of models for describing a given data set including statistically based model selection and comparison techniques. They also explore recent results on the estimation of probability distributions when they are embedded in complex mathematical models and only aggregate (not individual) data are available. In addition they briefly discuss the optimal design of experiments in support of inverse problems for given models. The book concludes with a focus on uncertainty in model formulation itself covering the general relationship of differential equations driven by white noise and the ones driven by colored noise in terms of their resulting probability density functions. It also deals with questions related to the appropriateness of discrete versus continuum models in transitions from small to large numbers of individuals. With many examples throughout addressing problems in physics biology and other areas this book is intended for applied mathematicians interested in deterministic and/or stochastic models and their interactions.

The Navier-Stokes Problem in the 21st Century

New Centrality Measures in Networks How to Take into Account the Parameters of the Nodes and Group Influence of Nodes to Nodes

New Centrality Measures in Networks How to Take into Account the Parameters of the Nodes and Group Influence of Nodes to Nodes

Over the last number of years there has been a growing interest in the analysis of complex networks which describe a wide range of real-world systems in nature and society. Identification of the central elements in such networks is one of the key research areas. Solutions to this problem are important for making strategic decisions and studying the behavior of dynamic processes e. g. epidemic spread. The importance of nodes has been studied using various centrality measures. Generally it should be considered that most real systems are not homogeneous: nodes may have individual attributes and influence each other in groups while connections between nodes may describe different types of relations. Thus critical nodes detection is not a straightforward process. New Centrality Measures in Networks presents a class of new centrality measures which take into account individual attributes of nodes the possibility of group influence and long-range interactions and discusses all their new features. The book provides a wide range of applications of network analysis in several fields – financial networks international migration global trade global food network arms transfers networks of terrorist groups and networks of international journals in economics. Real-world studies of networks indicate that the proposed centrality measures can identify important nodes in different applications. Starting from the basic ideas the development of the indices and their advantages compared to existing centrality measures are presented. Features Built around real-world case studies in a variety of different areas (finance migration trade etc. ) Suitable for students and professional researchers with an interest in complex network analysis Paired with a software package for readers who wish to apply the proposed models of centrality (in Python) available at https://github. com/SergSHV/slric. | New Centrality Measures in Networks How to Take into Account the Parameters of the Nodes and Group Influence of Nodes to Nodes

The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood ... When the Exception Confirms the Rule

The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood ... When the Exception Confirms the Rule

This book summarizes the methods and concepts of Statistical Implicative Analysis (SIA) created by Régis Gras in the 1980s to study in a new way the behavioural responses of French pupils to mathematics tests. Using a multidimensional non-symmetrical data analysis method SIA crosses a set of subjects or objects with a set of variables. It effectively complements traditional correlational and psychometric methods. SIA through its various extensions is today presented as a broad Artificial Intelligence method aimed at extracting trends and possible causalities in the form of rules from a set of variables. It is based on the unlikeliness of the existence of these relationships i. e. on the relative weakness of their counter-examples compared to what chance alone would produce. It establishes a dual topological relationship between the set of subjects and the set of variables. Many applications of this approach driving forces or crucibles for the development of SIA have concerned and still concern various fields such as didactics evaluation and assessment psychology sociology medicine biology economics art history and others. Key Features: Presents the foundations and representations of SIA Provides extensions of variable sets and subjects Includes a bonus exercise | The Theory of Statistical Implicative Analysis Or the Implausibility of Falsehood .

Questioning the Universe Concepts in Physics

Questioning the Universe Concepts in Physics

WINNER 2009 CHOICE AWARD OUTSTANDING ACADEMIC TITLE! The typical introduction to physics leaves readers with the impression that physics is about 30 different unconnected topics such as motion forces gravity electricity light heat energy and atoms. More often than not these readers are left to conclude that physics is mostly about boring lifeless numbers. Questioning the Universe: Concepts in Physics offers the nonscientist an alternative view: one that demonstrates how physics is perpetually evolving and shows how so many seemingly diverse concepts are intimately connected. In fact one could argue that the most important ideas in modern physics are all about unification and that these ideas are as fascinating as they are elegant. Physicists today believe that Mother Nature is remarkably efficient and requires only a relatively small number of laws to keep her universe in working order. We may not yet know all of these laws; but at the center of physics is a faith that she is indeed understandableand that someday we will see her full beauty. The purpose of this book is to tell readers the story of what we have learned about nature so far and how we have done it. Written to arouse curiosity this compelling and readable work: Delves into the most basic laws regarding motion and energy waves and particles Introduces modern theories including relativity quantum mechanics and particle physics Describes the key role played by that elemental building block the atom Discusses the evolution of the universe including the formation of stars and the mystery of dark matter and dark energy This book is not for those doing physics but is aimed at those who simply want to learn about physics so it requires only the most minimal math.
