Password authentication using Hopfield Networks is presented in this paper. In this paper we discussed the Hopfield Network Scheme for Textual and graphical passwords, for which input Password will be converted in to probabilistic values.…

This work considers the problem of resilient consensus where stochastic values of trust between agents are available. Specifically, we derive a unified mathematical framework to characterize convergence, deviation of the consensus from the…

We propose and analyze a graph model to study the connectivity of interdependent networks. Two interdependent networks of arbitrary topologies are modeled as two graphs, where every node in one graph is supported by supply nodes in the…

Many empirical networks have community structure, in which nodes are densely interconnected within each community (i.e., a group of nodes) and sparsely across different communities. Like other local and meso-scale structure of networks,…

The area of Handwritten Signature Verification has been broadly researched in the last decades, but remains an open research problem. The objective of signature verification systems is to discriminate if a given signature is genuine…

We suggest an approach to study hierarchy, especially hidden one, of complex networks based on the analysis of their vulnerability. Two quantities are proposed as a measure of network hierarchy. The first one is the system vulnerability V.…

Online bipartite matching is a fundamental problem in online algorithms. The goal is to match two sets of vertices to maximize the sum of the edge weights, where for one set of vertices, each vertex and its corresponding edge weights appear…

Signed graphs serve as a primary tool for modelling social networks. They can represent relationships between individuals (i.e., nodes) with the use of signed edges. Finding communities in a signed graph is of great importance in many…

A rework network is a common manufacturing system, in which flows (products) are processed in a sequence of workstations (nodes), which often results in defective products. To improve the productivity and utility of the system, the rework…

This paper proposes three measures to quantify the characteristics of online signature templates in terms of distinctiveness, complexity and repeatability. A distinctiveness measure of a signature template is computed from a set of enrolled…

The current framework of network utility maximization for distributed rate allocation assumes fixed channel code rates. However, by adapting the physical layer channel coding, different rate-reliability tradeoffs can be achieved on each…

Signed networks have been a topic of recent interest in the network control community as they allow studying antagonistic interactions in multi-agent systems. Although dynamical characteristics of signed networks have been well-studied,…

The evaluation of partition functions is a central problem in statistical physics. For lattice systems and other discrete models the partition function may be expressed as the contraction of a tensor network. Unfortunately computing such…

As the enormous use of internet increases day by day so as security concern is also raise day by day over the internet. In this paper we discuss the network security and its related threats and also study the types of protocols and few…

This paper considers the problem of algorithm selection for community detection. The aim of community detection is to identify sets of nodes in a network which are more interconnected relative to their connectivity to the rest of the…

Finding community structures in networks is important in network science, technology, and applications. To date, most algorithms that aim to find community structures only focus either on unipartite or bipartite networks. A unipartite…

We present a new approach to assessing the robustness of neural networks based on estimating the proportion of inputs for which a property is violated. Specifically, we estimate the probability of the event that the property is violated…

Flexible network design deals with building a network that guarantees some connectivity requirements between its vertices, even when some of its elements (like vertices or edges) fail. In particular, the set of edges (resp. vertices) of a…

Various simulation-based and analytical methods have been developed to evaluate the seismic fragilities of individual structures. However, a community's seismic safety and resilience are substantially affected by network reliability,…

In the study of networked systems such as biological, technological, and social networks the available data are often uncertain. Rather than knowing the structure of a network exactly, we know the connections between nodes only with a…
