Detecting Emerging DGA Malware in Federated Environments via Variational Autoencoder-Based Clustering and Resource-Aware Client Selection by Ma Viet Duc, Pham Minh Dang, Tran Thu Phuong, Truong Duc Truong, Vu Hai, Nguyen Huu Thanh

“…To address this, we present FedSAGE, a security-aware federated intrusion detection framework that combines Variational Autoencoder (VAE)-based latent representation learning with unsupervised clustering and resource-efficient client selection. Each client encodes its local domain traffic into a semantic latent space using a shared, pre-trained VAE trained solely on benign domains. …”

Probing the HIV-1 genomic RNA trafficking pathway and dimerization by genetic recombination and single virion analyses. by Michael D Moore, Olga A Nikolaitchik, Jianbo Chen, Marie-Louise Hammarskjöld, David Rekosh, Wei-Shau Hu

“…Using a cell-fusion-dependent recombination assay, we demonstrate that the two RNAs destined for copackaging into the same virion select each other mostly within the cytoplasm. Moreover, by manipulating the RNA export element in the viral genome, we show that the export pathway taken is important for the ability of RNA molecules derived from two viruses to interact and be copackaged. …”

A game-theoretic approach to select a channel for supplying required materials in producing a product manufactured from recyclables by Hamed Jafari

“…Results indicate that the manufacturer selects each channel as a threshold is met. Moreover, more recyclability rate of the considered waste leads to higher profits for the members.Originality/Value: In this research, to provide the waste materials required for producing a product, the game-theoretic approach as well as the concept of the channel-selection are used. …”
