Authenticated Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol with forward secrecy

Forward secrecy is an important security property in key agreement protocol. Based on Ham＇s protocol, in this paper a new authenticated Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol with half forward secrecy is proposed. This protocol is also based on a single cryptographic assumption, and is user authentication and shared key authentication. More importantly, our protocol provides forward secrecy with respect to one of the parties. For this reason, besides the advantages of Ham＇s protocol, in practice, our protocol can reduce the damages resulted from the disclosure of the user＇s secret key and it is very beneficial to today＇s communication with portable devices.

Joint Power Control Algorithm for CDMA TDD System

Current uplink power control algorithm of code division multiple access （CDMA） time division duplex（TDD） system contains signal-to-interference-ratio（SIR） and interference measurement, which is based on history information. However, the adjustment of transmission power of one user equipment（UE） will affect SIR of the others, because the power control is done independently of the power adjustment of other UE＇s. So the convergence speed of power control is not fast and the system performance degrades. In the proposed algorithm, all UE＇s assigned in same time slot adjust their transmission power based on current information, which takes into account the adjustments of transmission power of all UE＇s. The simulation results indicated that the proposed algorithm outperforms the old algorithm.

Mining Interesting Knowledge from Web-Log

Web-tog contains a lot of information related with user activities on the Internet. How to mine user browsing interest patterns effectively is an important and chattengeable research topic. On the analysis of the present algorithm‘s advantages and disadvantages, we propose a new concept: support-interest. Its key insight is that visitor will backtrack if they do not find the information where they expect. And the point from where they backtrack is tbe expected location for the page. We present User Access Matrix and the corresponding algorithm for discovering such expected locations that can handle page caching by the browser. Since the URL-URL matrix is a sparse matrix which can be represented by List of 3 tuples, we can mine user preferred sub-paths from the computation of this matrix. Accordinglyo all the sub-paths are merged, and user preferred paths are formed. Experiments showed that it was accurate and scalable. It‘s suitable for website based application, such as to optimize website‘s topologicat structure or to design personalized scrvices.

Research on Bayesian Network Based User＇s Interest Model

It has very realistic significance for improving the quality of users＇ accessing information to filter and selectively retrieve the large number of information on the Internet. On the basis of analyzing the existing users＇ interest models and some basic questions of users＇ interest （representation, derivation and identification of users＇ interest）, a Bayesian network based users＇ interest model is given. In this model, the users＇ interest reduction algorithm based on Markov Blanket model is used to reduce the interest noise, and then users＇ interested and not interested documents are used to train the Bayesian network. Compared to the simple model, this model has the following advantages like small space requirements, simple reasoning method and high recognition rate. The experiment result shows this model can more appropriately reflect the user＇s interest, and has higher performance and good usability.     

A Method to Implement Full Anonymous Attestation for Trusted Computing Platform

Trusted computing （TC） technology is brought out by trusted computing group （TCG） to make computing as safe and reliable as people expect. Attestation is one main function specified by TCG, which is the means by which a trusted computer assures a remote computer whose platform is not tampered with. There are two protocols that implement attestation without disclosing the platform＇s real identity, which are Privacy CA-based protocol and direct anonymous attestation （DAA） protocol. However, in the first protocol the privacy CA is the bottleneck and the platform＇s identity will be disclosed if the privacy CA is compromise, while DAA protocol can do profiling when dealing with rogue hardware device. In this paper, we propose a DAA-extended new approach to ensure full anonymous attestation that can not only detect a rogue TPM, but also reveal rogue TPM＇s real identity.     

A Deep Web Query Interfaces Classification Method Based on RBF Neural Network

This paper proposes a new approach for classification for query interfaces of Deep Web, which extracts features from the form＇s text data on the query interfaces, assisted with the synonym library, and uses radial basic function neural network （RBFNN） algorithm to classify the query interfaces. The applied RBFNN is a kind of effective feed-forward artificial neural network, which has a simple networking structure but features with strength of excellent nonlinear approximation, fast convergence and global convergence. A TEL_8 query interfaces＇ data set from UIUC on-line database is used in our experiments, which consists of 477 query interfaces in 8 typical domains. Experimental results proved that the proposed approach can efficiently classify the query interfaces with an accuracy of 95.67%.     

A feedback-based web search engine

Web search engines are very useful information service tools in the Internet. The current web search engines produce search results relating to the search terms and the actual information collected hy them. Since the selections of the search results cannot affect the future ones. they may not cover most people‘s interests. In this paper, feedback informarion produced by the users‘ accessing lists will be represented By the rough set and can reconstruct the query string and influence the search results. And thus the search engines can provide self-adaptability.

Two-phase genetic algorithm applied in the optimization of multi-modal function

This paper presents a two-phase genetic algorithm (TPGA) based on the multi-parent genetic algorithm (MPGA). Through analysis we find MPGA will lead the population’s evolvement to diversity or convergence according to the population size and the crossover size, so we make it run in different forms during the global and local optimization phases and then forms TPGA. The experiment results show that TPGA is very efficient for the optimization of low-dimension multi-modal functions) usually we can obtain all the global optimal solutions.

Automatic user goals identification based on anchor text and click-through data

Understanding the underlying goal behind a user＇s Web query has been proved to be helpful to improve the quality of search. This paper focuses on the problem of automatic identification of query types according to the goals. Four novel entropy-based features extracted from anchor data and click-through data are proposed, and a support vector machines （SVM） classifier is used to identify the user＇s goal based on these features. Experi- mental results show that the proposed entropy-based features are more effective than those reported in previous work. By combin- ing multiple features the goals for more than 97% of the queries studied can be correctly identified. Besides these, this paper reaches the following important conclusions： First, anchor-based features are more effective than click-through-based features; Second, the number of sites is more reliable than the number of links; Third, click-distribution- based features are more effective than session-based ones.     

Provably Secure Convertible Directed Partially Blind Signatures

Combining the concept of partially blind signature with the concept of directed signature, we introduce a new concept of convertible directed partially blind signature （CDPBS）, in which only the signer and the user can verify, confirm and disavow the validity of given signatures and convert given signatures into universally verifiable ones, to meet the need of signing personally or commercially sensitive messages. We give a formal definition of CDPBS and propose a concrete provably secure CDPBS scheme. The proposed scheme is efficient and secure, in which its unforgeability is the same as that of the Schnorr＇s signature scheme and its untransferability relies on the hardness of the decisional Diffie-Hellman problem. Furthermore, by letting the user＇s private key be a common constant, the proposed scheme can be used as a normal partially blind signature scheme.     

A new efficient blind signcryption

In a blind signcryption, besides the functions of digital signature and encryption algorithm for authentication and confidentiality, a user can delegates another user＇s capability with the anonymity of the participants guaranteed. Some blind signcryptions were proposed but without a blind signcryption with public public verifiability. In this paper, verifiability that is proved to be efficient and secure is proposed. Through the security analysis, we proved that the scheme can offer confidentiality, integrity, unforgeability, non-repudiation and public verifiability. The coming research direction is also summarized.     

A Novel Personalized Web Search Model

A novel personalized Web search model is proposed. The new system, as a middleware between a user and a Web search engine, is set up on the client machine. It can learn a user＇s preference implicitly and then generate the user profile automatically. When the user inputs query keywords, the system can automatically generate a few personalized expansion words by computing the term-term associations according to the current user profile, and then these words together with the query keywords are submitted to a popular search engine such as Yahoo or Google. These expansion words help to express accurately the user＇s search intention. The new Web search model can make a common search engine personalized, that is, the search engine can return different search results to different users who input the same keywords. The experimental results show the feasibility and applicability of the presented work.
