Abstract

Discriminative feature embedding is used for largescale facial recognition. Many image-based facial recognition networks use CNNs like ResNets and VGG-nets. Humans prioritise different elements, but CNNs treat all facial pictures equally. NLP and computer vision use attention to learn the most important part of an input signal. The inter-channel and inter-spatial attention mechanism is used to assess face image component significance in this study. Channel scalars are calculated using Global Average Pooling in face recognition channel attention. A recent study found that GAP encodes low-frequency channel information first. We compressed channels using discrete cosine transform (DCT) instead of scalar representation to evaluate information at frequencies other than the lowest frequency for the channel attention mechanism. Later layers can acquire the feature map after spatial attention. Channel and spatial attention increase CNN facial recognition feature extraction. Channel-only, spatial-only, parallel, sequential, or channel-after-spatial attention blocks exist. Current face recognition attention approaches may be outperformed on public datasets (Labelled Faces in the Wild).

Abstract

In the realm of healthcare applications leveraging cloud technology, ongoing progress is evident, yet current approaches are rigid and fail to adapt to the dynamic environment, particularly when network and virtual machine (VM) resources undergo modifications mid-execution. Health data is stored and processed in the cloud as virtual resources supported by numerous VMs, necessitating critical optimization of virtual node and data placement to enhance data application processing time. Network security poses a significant challenge in the cloud due to the dynamic nature of the topology, hindering traditional firewalls’ ability to inspect packet contents and leaving the network vulnerable to potential threats. To address this, we propose dividing the cloud topology into zones, each monitored by a controller to oversee individual VMs under firewall protection, a framework termed divided-cloud, aiming to minimize network congestion while strategically placing new VMs. Employing machine learning (ML) techniques, such as decision tree (DT) and linear discriminant analysis (LDA), we achieved improved accuracy rates for adding new controllers, reaching a maximum of 89%, and used the K-neighbours classifier method to determine optimal locations for new VMs, achieving an accuracy of 83%.
