A sliding window based management traffic clustering algorithm for 802.11 WLAN intrusion detection

This paper introduces a novel Management Traffic Clustering Algorithm (MTCA) based on a sliding window methodology for intrusion detection in 802.11 networks Active attacks and other network events such as scanning, joining and leaving in 802.11 WLANs can be observed by clustering the management frames in the MAC Layer. The new algorithm is based on a sliding window and measures the similarity of management frames within a certain period by calculating their variance. Through filtering out certain management frames, clusters are recognized from the discrete distribution of the variance of the management traffic load. Two parameters determine the accuracy and robustness of the algorithm: the Sample Interval and the Window Size of the sliding window. Extensive tests and comparisons between different sets of Sample Intervals and Window Sizes have been carried out. From analysis of the results, recommendations on what are the most appropriate values for these two parameters in various scenarios are presented.5th IFIP International Conference on Network Control & Engineering for QoS, Security and MobilityRed de Universidades con Carreras en Informática (RedUNCI

MS1, a direct target of MS188, regulates the expression of key sporophytic pollen coat protein genes in Arabidopsis

© 2020 Oxford University Press. All rights reserved. Sporophytic pollen coat proteins (sPCPs) derived from the anther tapetum are deposited into pollen wall cavities and function in pollen-stigma interactions, pollen hydration, and environmental protection. In Arabidopsis, 13 highly abundant proteins have been identified in pollen coat, including seven major glycine-rich proteins GRP14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, and GRP-oleosin; two caleosin-related family proteins (AT1G23240 and AT1G23250); three lipase proteins EXL4, EXL5 and EXL6, and ATA27/BGLU20. Here, we show that GRP14, 17, 18, 19, and EXL4 and EXL6 fused with green fluorescent protein (GFP) are translated in the tapetum and then accumulate in the anther locule following tapetum degeneration. The expression of these sPCPs is dependent on two essential tapetum transcription factors, MALE STERILE188 (MS188) and MALE STERILITY 1 (MS1). The majority of sPCP genes are up-regulated within 30 h after MS1 induction and could be restored by MS1 expression driven by the MS188 promoter in ms188, indicating that MS1 is sufficient to activate their expression; however, additional MS1 downstream factors appear to be required for high-level sPCP expression. Our ChIP, in vivo transactivation assay, and EMSA data indicate that MS188 directly activates MS1. Together, these results reveal a regulatory cascade whereby outer pollen wall formation is regulated by MS188 followed by synthesis of sPCPs controlled by MS1

Experimental Investigation of Particle Size Alteration and the Selective Crushing Phenomenon of Gangue during the Jaw Crushing Process

This study examines the particle size and distribution of the main chemical components of gangue during the crushing process. Coal mine gangue was chosen as the research object, and its particle size and chemical components at various crusher discharge settings were examined through screening, grinding, chemical composition testing, and other methods. The findings demonstrate that the characteristic particle size in the gangue particle size distribution model has a logarithmic upward trend as the width of the discharge port increases. In contrast, the uniformity index has shown an exponential downward trend. The analysis of the distribution rate and enrichment ratio of the main chemical components of the gangue at different widths of the discharge port shows that the gangue exhibits obvious selective crushing during the crushing process. The distribution rate of each component is affected by the size of the screen aperture to various extents. As the discharge port width increases, the elements of CaO and MgO are enriched in the coarse-grained products, while those containing Fe2O3 are enriched from fine-grained to coarse-grained. Gangue particles containing Al2O3, SiO2, and C are enriched in the fine-grained product. In addition, by analyzing the alterations in the main chemical components of gangue at different particle size intervals, it was found that the amount of each component first rises and then falls, and the trend of enrichment ratio to particle size follows an exponential pattern. The research results have significance for guiding the selection of resource utilization methods of gangue with different particle sizes after crushing

Study on spatial characteristics of gangue slurry filling mining and engineering practice

Coal gangue slurry filling and disposal of solid waste is a new coal green mining technology that conforms to the green and sustainable development of coal mines and responds to national environmental protection policies.In order to establish the basic theoretical system of slurry filling, this paper uses the methods of theoretical analysis, simulation experiment and field industrial test to reveal the law of overburden movement in slurry filling space and master the distribution characteristics of voids available for slurry filling, Clarify the function relationship of "gangue slurry goaf gap".The research shows that the "key layer of slurry filling" is the key to control the space range of slurry filling in the mining process, and the spatial evolution process of "arch beam shell" corresponds to the free accumulation area, load influence area and compaction area of slurry filling space, which directly determines the effect of gangue slurry; The porosity of the collapsed rock mass in the goaf varies along the strike and vertical direction, which satisfies the negative logarithmic function relationship.Based on this, the spatial void distribution model of slurry filling is established, and the key areas of slurry filling are pointed out; Through the ground in-situ grouting filling test, the filling characteristics of gangue slurry in goaf space are proved, and the action process of gangue slurry-gob gap has experienced three stages: initial flow, inrush flow and horizontal diffusion.The industrial practice of gangue slurry filling in the free accumulation area and load affected area of slurry filling space in Huangling No.2 well has successfully verified the feasibility of underground gangue slurry filling technology and the correctness of theory, which provides a new basis for gangue solid waste disposal and green mining

Bioinformatics analysis to identify action targets in NCI-N87 gastric cancer cells exposed to quercetin

Context: Quercetin exerts antiproliferative effects on gastric cancer. However, its mechanisms of action on gastric cancer have not been comprehensively revealed. Objective: We investigated the mechanisms of action of quercetin against gastric cancer cells. Materials and methods: Human NCI-N87 gastric cancer cells were treated with 15 μM quercetin or dimethyl sulfoxide (as a control) for 48 h. DNA isolated from cells was sequenced on a HiSeq 2500, and the data were used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between groups. Then, enrichment analyses were performed for DEGs and a protein–protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed. Finally, the transcription factors (TFs)-DEGs regulatory network was visualized by Cytoscape software. Results: A total of 121 DEGs were identified in the quercetin group. In the PPI network, Fos proto-oncogene (FOS, degree = 12), aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR, degree = 12), Jun proto-oncogene (JUN, degree = 11), and cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily A member 1 (CYP1A1, degree = 11) with higher degrees highly interconnected with other proteins. Of the 5 TF-DEGs, early growth response 1 (EGR1), FOS like 1 (FOSL1), FOS, and JUN were upregulated, while AHR was downregulated. Moreover, FOSL1, JUN, and Wnt family member 7B (WNT7B) were enriched in the Wnt signaling pathway. Discussion and conclusions: CYP1A1 highly interconnected with AHR in the PPI network. Therefore, FOS, AHR, JUN, CYP1A1, EGR1, FOSL1, and WNT7B might be targets of quercetin in gastric cancer

Grouting mechanism and experimental study of goaf considering filtration effect.

The filtration effect significantly affects the gangue slurry velocity and concentration, making it difficult to evaluate the gangue slurry diffusion range. Based on the Darcy seepage law, a seepage theoretical calculation model is established considering the filtration time and space effect. And the "water-cement ratio change matrix" in the seepage process of coal gangue slurry is deduced, revealing the basic mechanism of the porous media filtration effect, and the water-cement ratio gradually increases in the seepage process of gangue slurry. The visual test platform for slurry diffusion in goaf was independently developed for testing. The active heating optical fiber method (AHFO) was used to monitor the flow and diffusion of coal gangue slurry in the collapse zone of goaf, and the gravity gradient and water cement ratio of slurry in goaf were measured. The law of particle sedimentation in the gangue slurry flow process under the filtration effect was revealed, and engineering verification was carried out. The results show that the average slope of the gangue slurry in the gangue accumulation is 6.34%, and the overall flow law of the gangue slurry in the goaf is the first longitudinal expansion and then transverse diffusion. The water-cement ratio near the grouting mouth is smaller than the initial water-cement ratio, the near-end water-cement ratio is smaller, and the far-end water-cement ratio is larger. During on-site filling, the accumulated grouting volume of a single hole is 700 m3, and the gangue slurry diffusion distance is greater than 45m, indicating that the gangue slurry has good fluidity

Analysis of Influencing Factors of Gangue Ball Milling Based on Multifractal Theory

To study the heterogeneity and local heterogeneity of gangue particle size distribution (PSD) under ball milling, gangue from northern Shaanxi coal mine was taken as a research object. The multifractal pattern of PSD and the variation trend of characteristic parameters of gangue under different ball-to-gangue ratios and grinding times were analyzed by introducing multifractal theory and microscopic research methods such as laser particle size analysis and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the multifractal characteristics of the gangue particle size distribution with different ball-to-gangue ratios and grinding time periods demonstrate obvious changes. When the ball-to-gangue ratio is 3~9, the multifractal parameters D(0), D(1), Δα, and Δf all show linear changes with grinding time. It is demonstrated that due to the phenomenon of particle agglomeration during ball milling, the multifractal characteristics of the particle size distribution of the gangue changes significantly when the ball-to-gangue ratio is 12~15. Furthermore, the results indicate that with the increase in time, D(0), Δα, and Δf show a trend of decreasing first and then increasing, and D(1) and D(1)/D(0) show a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and both reach their extreme values at 30 min

Grain size and shape fractal characteristics of gangue in the process of 'jaw breaking-ball milling'.

This study investigates the fractal characteristics of the particle size and shape distribution of gangue powder in the "jaw crushing-ball milling" process using mudstone gangue. For this, fractal theory, laser particle size analyzer, scanning electron microscope and other mesoscopic research methods were introduced. This study has several main factors, including the discharge port width in the jaw crushing stage, the grinding particle size, ball-to-powder ratio in the ball milling stage, and the fractal dimension changes of the gangue in different crushing stages. The results indicate that in the process of "jaw crushing-ball milling", gangue's particle size and shape fractal dimension values changed periodically. During the jaw crushing stage, the particle size fractal dimension increases with the width of the discharge opening, ranging from 1.85 to 1.92. The value of the shape fractal dimension varies from 2.65 to 2.84. Ball milling causes the fractal dimension value of gangue particle size to increase with time before agglomeration and decrease after agglomeration. By comparing different in-grinding particle sizes and ball-to-powder ratio, it is found that the fractal dimension value of gangue particle size decreases with the increase of in-grinding particle size and increases with the increase of ball-to-powder ratio. The final gangue's particle size fractal dimension value is concentrated between 2.5 and 2.8. The fractal dimension of particle shape increases with the increase of the grinding particle size, and decreases with the increase of ball-to-powder ratio. A ball-to-powder ratio greater than 6 gradually reduces its influence on fractal dimensions, and the final shape dimension lies between 1.06 and 1.16. In addition, the increase/decrease range of particle size and shape fractal dimension decreases with the increase of ball milling time, which is also consistent with the grinding kinetics theory. As a result of the changes in particle size and shape fractal dimensions, parameters such as jaw crusher discharge port width, grinding particle size, and ball-to-powder ratio are calculated to provide a theoretical basis for the entire crushing process in the "jaw crusher-ball milling" crushing process
