Time‐of‐Arrival of Coronal Mass Ejections: A Two‐Phase Kinematics Approach Based on Heliospheric Imaging Observations by Evangelos Paouris, Angelos Vourlidas

“…In a nod toward a forecasting scheme, we consider Earth‐directed CMEs, use kinematic measurements only from the Heliospheric Imagers aboard both STEREO spacecraft, treat each spacecraft separately to increase the event statistics, analyze the measurements in a data‐assimilative fashion, and intercompare them against three localization schemes for single viewpoint observations (fixed‐φ, harmonic mean and self‐similar expansion). …”

A semi-synchronous federated learning framework with chaos-based encryption for enhanced security in medical image sharing by Animesh Roy, Deva Raj Mahanta, Lipi B. Mahanta

“…The approach integrates federated learning with chaos-based encryption, utilizing the Henon Logistic Crossed Couple Map (HLCML) to strengthen the security of hospital images stored on cloud servers. With its foundation in chaos-based approaches, the encryption algorithm is non-interactive, uses weighted parameters in each aggregation phase, and offers strong privacy protection using semi-synchronous and differential privacy techniques. …”
