As one of the most significant challenges in the virtual data center, the virtual data center embedding has attracted extensive attention from researchers. The existing research works mainly focus on how to design algorithms to increase operating revenue. However, they ignore the energy consumption issue of the physical data center in virtual data center embedding. In this paper, we focus on studying the energy-aware virtual data center embedding problem. Specifically, we first propose an energy consumption model. It includes the energy consumption models of the virtual machine node and the virtual switch node, aiming to quantitatively measure the energy consumption in virtual data center embedding. Based on such a model, we propose two algorithms regarding virtual data center embedding: one is heuristic, and the other is based on particle swarm optimization. The second algorithm provides a better solution to virtual data center embedding by leveraging the evolution process of particle swarm optimization. Finally, experiment results show that our proposed algorithms can effectively save energy while guaranteeing the embedding success rate.

Objectives : The purpose of this study is to help select an appropriate word embedding method when analyzing East Asian traditional medicine texts as data. Methods : Based on prescription data that imply traditional methods in traditional East Asian medicine, we have examined 4 count-based word embedding and 2 prediction-based word embedding methods. In order to intuitively compare these word embedding methods, we proposed a "prescription generating game" and compared its results with those from the application of the 6 methods. Results : When the adjacent vectors are extracted, the count-based word embedding method derives the main herbs that are frequently used in conjunction with each other. On the other hand, in the prediction-based word embedding method, the synonyms of the herbs were derived. Conclusions : Counting based word embedding methods seems to be more effective than prediction-based word embedding methods in analyzing the use of domesticated herbs. Among count-based word embedding methods, the TF-vector method tends to exaggerate the frequency effect, and hence the TF-IDF vector or co-word vector may be a more reasonable choice. Also, the t-score vector may be recommended in search for unusual information that could not be found in frequency. On the other hand, prediction-based embedding seems to be effective when deriving the bases of similar meanings in context.

In this paper, reversible data embedding scheme was proposed using the locality of image and the adjacent pixel difference sequence. Generally, locality exists in natural image. The proposed scheme increases the amount of embedding data and enables data embedding at various levels by applying a technique of predicting adjacent pixel values using image locality to an existing technique APD(Adjacent Pixel Difference). The experimental results show that the proposed scheme is very useful for reversible data embedding.

Detection of an anomaly pattern deviating normal data distribution in streaming data is an important technique in many application areas. In this paper, a method for detection of an newly emerging pattern in text streaming data which is an ordered sequence of texts is proposed based on text embedding and anomaly pattern detection. Using text embedding methods such as BOW(Bag Of Words), Word2Vec, and BERT, the detection performance of the proposed method is compared. Experimental results show that anomaly pattern detection using BERT embedding gave an average F1 value of 0.85 and the F1 value of 1 in three cases among five test cases.

Reversible data embedding theory has marked a new epoch for data hiding and information security. Being reversible, the original data and the embedded data as well should be completely restored. Difference expansion transform is a remarkable breakthrough in reversible data hiding scheme. The difference expansion method achieves high embedding capacity and keeps the distortion low. This paper shows that the difference expansion method with simplified location map, and new expandability and changeability can achieve more embedding capacity while keeping the distortion almost the same as the original expansion method.

Data embedding has recently become important for protecting authority. In this paper, we Propose a robust data embedding technique for images. Our techniques are based on the convolution between message image and a random phase carrier. We add extra bits with carrier image to improve precision of detecting rate, moreover, we use block by block based cyclic correlation for the compensation of distortion. In experiment, we show that the proposed a1gorithm is robust to Stirmark 3.1. attacks.

Reversible data hiding enables the embedding of messages in a host image without any loss of host content, which is proposed for image authentication that if the watermarked image is deemed authentic, we can revert it to the exact copy of the original image before the embedding occurred. In this paper, we present an improved histogram-based reversible data hiding scheme based on prediction and sorting. A rhombus prediction is employed to explore the prediction for histogram-based embedding. Sorting the prediction has a good influence on increasing the embedding capacity. Characteristics of the pixel difference are used to achieve large hiding capacity while keeping low distortion. The proposed scheme exploits a two-stage embedding strategy to solve the problem about communicating peak points. We also present a histogram shifting technique to prevent overflow and underflow. Performance comparisons with other existing reversible data hiding schemes are provided to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed scheme.

Lossless data embedding is a method to insert information into a host image that guarantees complete restoration when the extraction has been done. In this paper, we propose a noble reversible data embedding algorithm for images in wavelet domain. The proposed embedding technique, which modifies histogram of wavelet coefficient, is composed of two inserting steps. Data is embedded to wavelet coefficient using modification of histogram in first embedding process. Second embedding step compensates the distortion caused by the first embedding process as well as hides more information. Hence we achieve higher inserting capacity. In view of the relationship between the embedding capacity and the PSNR value, our proposed method shows considerably higher performance than the current reversible data embedding methods.

This paper proposes a new lossless data embedding algorithm on spatial domain of digital images. A single key parameter is required to embed and extract data in the algorithm instead of embedding any additional information such as the location map. A $3{\times}3$ window slides over the cover image by one pixel unit, and one bit can be embedded at each position of the window. So, the ideal embedding capacity equals to the number of pixels in an image. For further increase of embedding capacity, new weight parameters for the estimation of embedding target pixels have been used. As a result, significant increase in embedding capacity and better quality of the message-embedded image in high capacity embedding have been achieved. This algorithm is verified with simulations.

A lot of data hiding schemes have been proposed to embed secret data in the plain cover images or compressed images of various formats, including JPEG, AMBTC, VQ, etc. In this paper, we propose a production process of mosaic images based on three regular images of coffee beans. A primary image is first mimicked by the process to produce a mosaic cover image. A two-layer steganography is applied to hide secret data in the mosaic image. Based on the low visual quality of the mosaic cover image, its PSNR value can be improved about 1.5 dB after embedding 3 bpp. This is achieved by leveraging the newly proposed polarized search mask and the concepts of strong embedding and weak embedding. Applying steganography to the mosaic cover images is a completely new idea and it is promising.
