Unmasking insider threats using a robust hybrid optimized generative pretrained neural network approach by P. Lavanya, H. Anila Glory, Manuj Aggarwal, V. S. Shankar Sriram

“…The structure of the proposed approach involves three phases: (1) Chebyshev Graph Laplacian Eigenmaps solver (CGLE) for selecting the user-designated samples by reducing the dimensionality of the data and Insider State clustering via Density-Based Spatial Clustering of Applications with Noise (IS-DBSCAN) (2) The EHI of multi-objective Bayesian optimization for optimizing the sensitive learning rate hyperparameter to ensure the stability of the Adabelief optimized WGAN and improve the quality of the generated adversarial samples. (3) The L2-SP regularization technique effectively fine-tunes the pretrained AGCN, which identifies the user behavioural pattern to detect the insiders. …”

Study on influence of coal seam water content on effect of CO2 isobaric diffusion displacing CH4 by Liwei CHEN, Dongjie WANG, Le BIAN, Yuan LIU, Xiaohua LI

“…In the experiments of CH4 replacement by CO2 injection in coal with different water contents under isobaric diffusion conditions, it was found that, under the same water content conditions, with the increase of adsorption equilibrium pressure, the replacement amount and replacement rate of CH4 kept increasing, while the CO2 injection ratio kept decreasing, and the replacement effect of CH4 was better, while the utilization rate of CO2 was lower. …”
