Adaptor signature scheme based on ISRSAC digital signature algorithm by Yanshuo ZHANG, Ning LIU, Yuqi YUAN, Yatao YANG

“…The adapter signature scheme can provide good properties of atomic exchange in the block chain, and has been widely used in practice.A new adapter signature scheme was constructed based on a digital signature algorithm for improved security of RSA cryptosystem (ISRSAC).After proving that the proposed scheme satisfied the correctness of the pre-signature, unforgeability, adaptability of the pre-signature, extractability of the evidence and the security of the signature scheme, it was compared with the adapter signature scheme based on the SM2 digital signature algorithm, the Schnorr-based adapter signature scheme and the ECDSA-based adapter signature scheme.And these schemes were analyzed in terms of time overhead and main calculation amount.The analysis results show that the proposed scheme is similar to other schemes in terms of time overhead, but the proposed scheme expands the application scenarios of ISRSAC algorithm in the current environment, and through the combination of ISRSAC algorithm and adapter signature technology, the selection of adapter signature is more flexible and can have a wider range of applications.…”

Effects of Visual and Lateral Line Organs on Reefing Behavior of Sebastes schlegelii by Feng CHEN, Jiao LI, Pihai GONG, Changtao GUAN

“…This supports the hypothesis that these sensory systems are crucial in habitat selection and aggregation. Fish in the visual and mild lateral line impairment groups showed significantly reduced aggregation compared with the normal group, suggesting that visual and lateral line cues are critical for efficient navigation and habitat selection. …”

A Small Target Pedestrian Detection Model Based on Autonomous Driving by Yang Zhang, Shuaifeng Zhang, Dongrong Xin, Dewang Chen

“…To improve the accuracy of small-target pedestrian detection and the anti-interference ability of the model, a small-target pedestrian detection model that fuses residual networks and feature pyramids is proposed. First, a residual block with a discard layer is constructed to replace the standard residual block in the residual network structure to reduce the complexity of the model computation process and solve the problems of gradient disappearance and explosion in the deep network. …”
