Information Security in the Age of Algorithms

Fei Yang(Fei Yang),Xuan Luo(Xuan Luo) 아시아사회과학학회 2023 Jornal of Asia Social Science Vol.10 No.1

Algorithms are now widely used in all areas of social life, building a new social picture and reality. As a technology based on big data modelling and analysis, algorithms are embedded in all aspects of information production and distribution by means of technology, and become an important force in the construction of information environment. Under the algorithmic logic of information dissemination, the visible and invisible are in fact influenced by the algorithm as an authoritative mediator and mediator. From Daniel Dayan's 'visibility' perspective, this paper examines the risks posed by algorithms in three areas: the risk of passive disclosure of personal privacy, the use and control of personal data by profit-seeking algorithms, and the polarisation of information cocoons and circles. The information security risk brought by algorithms is attempted to be tackled and improved from several aspects, such as constructing a 'trinity' information security strategy system; adhering to the mainstream value orientation and highlighting the rational balance of “tool-value” of algorithms; and bringing into play multiple mechanisms together with effects.

In this work, to prepare the PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3(PZT)/PbZrO3(PZ) multilayer films, PZ films and PZT films were spin-coated on LaNiO3/SiO2/Si substrates in sequence by the sol-gel method, and the PZ films were prepared using PZ precursor solution with different concentrations. After each spin-coating, PZ layer and PZT layer were annealed with rapid thermal annealing (RTA) technique at 650 ◦C and 550 ◦C, respectively. The crystal structures, microstructures and electrical properties of the films with different PZ film thickness were comprehensively investigated. The PZ films with different thickness showed perovskite phase. The PZT films on crystallized PZ films exhibited the coexistence of pyrochlore phase and perovskite phase at the annealing temperature of 550 ◦C. The PZT/PZ multilayer films with 0.2 M PZ precursor solution exhibit typical anti-ferroelectricity with double hysteresis loops, while other multilayer films exhibit nearly linear loops. In addition, the recoverable energy storage density increases with the increase of the film thickness and reaches the maximum value 32.4 J/ cm3 in the PZT/PZ multilayer films with 0.4 M PZ precursor solution. Therefore, the ferroelectric properties of the PZT/PZ multilayer films could be regulated by different PZ film thickness, which effectively further enhances the energy storage performance.

Yang Yang,Xinyu Chen,Liping Ran,Yunfei Wu,Xurun Yu,Zhaodi Dong,Fei Xiong 한국식물학회 2019 Journal of Plant Biology Vol.62 No.4

The development of protein bodies (PBs) determinesthe processing properties of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Ithas been known that nitrogen uptake has a strong impact ongrain protein concentration. However, the differences of theformation of PB in different developmental stages anddifferent positions in wheat endosperm are still controversial. To solve these issues, PBs formation in different wheatendosperm parts and the response to nitrogen were investigatedusing light, transmission electron microscopes in presentstudy. The main results were as follows. (1) Proteins mainlyformed PBs via the Golgi apparatus in the vacuole at theearly stage of wheat endosperm development. After 7 dayspost anthesis, most proteins were derived from the roughendoplasmic reticulum. (2) The morphology of PBs was diverseamong different endosperm parts. Compared with the centralendosperm, the PBs in sub-aleurone cells were abundant andlarge. (3) More abundant endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi andmitochondrion were observed at the early stage after nitrogentreatment. Nitrogen also increased the accumulation of PBsat the later stage. (4) The sub-aleurone region cells of theendosperm presented more significant responses to nitrogenthan the central endosperm.

PML/retinoic acid receptor alpha (RARa), as ahallmark of acute promyeloid leukemia (APL), is directlyrelated to the outcome of clinical APL remedy. It isreported that arsenicals can effectively degrade PML/RARa, such as arsenic trioxide and realgar. However, thehigh toxicity or insolubility have hampered their clinicalapplications. Realgar transforming solution (RTS) wasproduced from realgar by bioleaching process in our lab. Previous studies demonstrated that RTS had a significantanti-cancer ability on chronic myeloid leukemia throughoncoprotein degradation. The capacity of RTS on treatingAPL is what is focused on in this study. The results showedthat RTS had a noticeable sensitivity in NB4 cell, and RTSremarkably down-regulated PML/RARa expression andinduced cell differentiation. Further, RTS could accumulatePML/RARa into the nuclear bodies and then executedegradation, which could be reversed by proteasomeinhibitor MG132. The results also exhibited that thereduction of RTS-induced PML/RARa expression accompaniedby the elevation of ubiquitin and SUMO-1 proteinexpression. Finally, PML and SUMO-1 had been demonstratedto be co-localized after RTS treatment byimmunofluorescence co-localization assay and immunoprecipitationassay. In conclusion, these results suggestedthat RTS-induced cell differentiation may attribute to thePML/RARa degradation partially through the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway.

New Insights into Autonomic Nerve Preservation in High Ligation of the Inferior Mesenteric Artery in Laparoscopic Surgery for Colorectal Cancer

Aim: To take a deeper insight into the relationship between the root of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) and the autonomic nerve plexuses around it by cadaveric anatomy and explore anatomical evidence of autonomic nerve preservation in high ligation of the IMA in laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer. Methods: Anatomical dissection was performed on 11 formalin-fixed cadavers and 12 fresh cadavers. Anatomical evidence-based autonomic nerve preservation in high ligation of the IMA was performed in 22 laparoscopic curative resections of colorectal cancer. Results: As the upward continuation of the presacral nerves, the bilateral trunks of SHP had close but different relationships with the root of the IMA. The right trunk of SHP ran relatively far away from the root of IMA. When the apical lymph nodes were dissected close to the root of the IMA along the fascia space in front of the anterior renal fascia, the right trunk of SHP could be kept in suit under the anterior renal fascia. The left descending branches to SHP constituted a natural and constant anatomical landmark of the relationship between the root of IMA and the left autonomic nerves. Proximal to this, the left autonomic nerves surrounded the root of the IMA. Distally, the left trunk of the SHP departed from the root of IMA under the anterior renal fascia. When high ligation of the IMA was performed distal to it, the left trunk of SHP could be preserved. The distance between the left descending branches to SHP and the origin of IMA varied widely from 1.3 cm to 2.3 cm. Conclusions: The divergences of the bilateral autonomic nerve preservation around the root of the IMA may contribute to provide anatomical evidence for more precise evaluation of the optimal position of high ligation of the IMA in the future.

A Distributed Workflow Mapping Method Oriented Homogeneous Activity

Fei Yang,Yinzhou Zhu 보안공학연구지원센터 2016 International Journal of Grid and Distributed Comp Vol.9 No.3

Workflow model based-on homogeneous activity needs to be transformed into basic workflow model in order to run in distributed environment. A workflow model mapping algorithm oriented homogeneous activity is proposed which can generate independent basic workflow fragments for homogeneous activities of different configuration modes using different processing mechanisms, and then form the basic workflow model based on the assembly of these workflow fragments. The algorithm provides a complete set of virtual mapping mechanism to solve it effectively focusing on the problem of the topological relationship of redundant activities difficult to describe in the dynamic selection model of homogeneous activity.

Fei Yang,Wan-zhen Zhang,Wei Dai 보안공학연구지원센터 2015 International Journal of Hybrid Information Techno Vol.8 No.2

SnIClustering Algorithm is put forward to deal with the large number of intermediate values when processing MapReduce. SnIClustering Algorithm picks up a few representative data through cluster sampling, and then retains the useful data through filtration according to the distribution characteristics. By doing so, intermediate values of MapReduce can be reduced sharply, saving time and easing network load. The last step is to cluster the selected data and samples. Experimental results show that SnIClustering is suitable to process large-scale data, since it can both process large-scale data within a short time and maintain fine clustering effect.

Yang, Xiao-Fei,Sun, Ai-Ning,Yin, Jia,Cai, Cheng-Sen,Tian, Xiao-Peng,Qian, Jun,Chen, Su-Ning,Wu, De-Pei Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2012 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.13 No.11

A monosomal karyotype (MK), defined as ${\geq}2$ autosomal monosomies or a single monosomy in the presence of additional structural abnormalities, was recently identified as an independent prognostic factor conveying an extremely poor prognosis in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In the present study, after excluding patients with t(15;17), t(8;21), inv(16) and normal karyotypes, 324 AML patients with cytogenetic abnormalities were the main subject of analysis. The incidences of MK were 13% in patients aged 15 to 60 years and 18% in those between 15 and 88 years old. MK was much more prevalent among elderly patients (p < 0.001) and was significantly associated with the presence of -7, -5, del(5q), abn12p, abn17p, -18 or 18q-, -20 or 20q- and CK (for all p < 0.001 except for abn12p p=0.009), and +8 or +8q was less frequent in MK+ AML(p=0.007). No correlation was noted between monosomal karyotype and FAB subtype (p > 0.05); MK remained significantly associated with worse overall survival among patients with complex karyotype (p=0.032); A single autosomal monosomy contributed an additional negative effect in OS of patients with structural cytogenetic abnormalities (P=0.008). This report presents the prevalence, feature and prognostic impact of MK among a large series of Chinese AML patients from a single center for the first time.
