Physical Representation-based Predicate Optimization for a Visual Analytics Database
Querying the content of images, video, and other non-textual data sources
requires expensive content extraction methods. Modern extraction techniques are
based on deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and can classify objects
within images with astounding accuracy. Unfortunately, these methods are slow:
processing a single image can take about 10 milliseconds on modern GPU-based
hardware. As massive video libraries become ubiquitous, running a content-based
query over millions of video frames is prohibitive.
One promising approach to reduce the runtime cost of queries of visual
content is to use a hierarchical model, such as a cascade, where simple cases
are handled by an inexpensive classifier. Prior work has sought to design
cascades that optimize the computational cost of inference by, for example,
using smaller CNNs. However, we observe that there are critical factors besides
the inference time that dramatically impact the overall query time. Notably, by
treating the physical representation of the input image as part of our query
optimization---that is, by including image transforms, such as resolution
scaling or color-depth reduction, within the cascade---we can optimize data
handling costs and enable drastically more efficient classifier cascades.
In this paper, we propose Tahoma, which generates and evaluates many
potential classifier cascades that jointly optimize the CNN architecture and
input data representation. Our experiments on a subset of ImageNet show that
Tahoma's input transformations speed up cascades by up to 35 times. We also
find up to a 98x speedup over the ResNet50 classifier with no loss in accuracy,
and a 280x speedup if some accuracy is sacrificed.Comment: Camera-ready version of the paper submitted to ICDE 2019, In

Deep Space Network information system architecture study
The purpose of this article is to describe an architecture for the Deep Space Network (DSN) information system in the years 2000-2010 and to provide guidelines for its evolution during the 1990s. The study scope is defined to be from the front-end areas at the antennas to the end users (spacecraft teams, principal investigators, archival storage systems, and non-NASA partners). The architectural vision provides guidance for major DSN implementation efforts during the next decade. A strong motivation for the study is an expected dramatic improvement in information-systems technologies, such as the following: computer processing, automation technology (including knowledge-based systems), networking and data transport, software and hardware engineering, and human-interface technology. The proposed Ground Information System has the following major features: unified architecture from the front-end area to the end user; open-systems standards to achieve interoperability; DSN production of level 0 data; delivery of level 0 data from the Deep Space Communications Complex, if desired; dedicated telemetry processors for each receiver; security against unauthorized access and errors; and highly automated monitor and control
ANOMALY NETWORK INTRUSION DETECTION SYSTEM BASED ON DISTRIBUTED TIME-DELAY NEURAL NETWORK (DTDNN)
In this research, a hierarchical off-line anomaly network intrusion detection system based on Distributed Time-Delay Artificial Neural Network is introduced. This research aims to solve a hierarchical multi class problem in which the type of attack (DoS, U2R, R2L and Probe attack) detected by dynamic neural network. The results indicate that dynamic neural nets (Distributed Time-Delay Artificial Neural Network) can achieve a high detection rate, where the overall accuracy classification rate average is equal to 97.24%
