چکیده

We present a method for tracking and distinguishing multiple C. elegans in a video sequence, including when they are in physical contact with one another. The worms are modeled with an articulated model composed of rectangular blocks, arranged in a deformable configuration represented by a spring-like connection between adjacent parts. Dynamic programming is applied to reduce the computational complexity of the matching process. Our method makes it possible to identify two worms correctly before and after they touch each other, and to find body poses for feature extraction.

Optimal Trajectory Generation for a Robotic Worm via Parameterization by B-Spline Curves

In this paper we intend to generate some set of optimal trajectories according to the number of control points has been applied for parameterizing those using B-spline curves. The trajectories are used to generate an optimal locomotion gait in a crawling worm-like robot. Due to gait design considerations it is desired to minimize the required torques in a cycle of gait. Similar to caterpillars,...

A Novel Cloud-based Worm Propagation Model

Cloud computing technology not only provides us powerful computing, on-demand service, rapid elasticity, but also possible great destruction by the internet criminal accordingly. This prompts us to consider the cloud-based worm propagation problem. We set up the analytical model through a highly abstract network environment and achieve the overall characteristics of the worm research purposes. ...

Hop-by-HopWorm Propagation with Carryover Epidemic Model in Mobile Sensor Networks

In the internet, a worm is usually propagated in a random multi-hop contact manner. However, the attacker will not likely select this random multi-hop propagation approach in a mobile sensor network. This is because multi-hop worm route paths to random vulnerable targets can be often breached due to node mobility, leading to failure of fast worm spread under this strategy. Therefore, an appropr...

A New Ecology Model for Internet Worm Security Threat Evaluation

Welchia worms were launched to terminate the Blaster worms and patch the vulnerable hosts. They created complex worm interactions as well as detrimental impact on infrastructure. Worm propagation analysis, including exploring mechanisms of predator-prey worms’ propagation and formulating effects of network/worm parameters, has great importance for worm containment and host protection. In this p...

A Novel Cloud - based Benign Worm Defense Technology ⋆

Due to the proactive defend against the worm propagation and patch the susceptible hosts, benign worms are attracting wide attentions in the field of worm research. In this paper, we point out the errors of worm-anti-worm model (WAW) and present a revised model named Re-WAW based on the law of worm propagation and Two-Factor model. Based on the discussion of the worm propagation factors such as...

The experiment was carried out in a factorial arrangement with the base of randomized complete block design in three repetitions. The first factor consisted of 11 bed for eating worm and the second factor is the different seasons (spring and autumn) respectively. Traits was including number of capsules (Coconut), the number of adult worms, the number of immature worms, live worms masses (mg), m...
