    L.K. Babenko, A.S. Shumilin, D.M. Alekseev
    Abstract

    The objectives of the study are to develop and assess the effectiveness of the structure of a
    cloud platform for storing, processing and organizing medical data, determining a method of protection,
    in particular, ensuring confidentiality when transferring and storing examination results.
    To achieve this goal, the tasks of analyzing existing models of information processes and structures
    in the subject area are being solved, the features of the means for accumulating and processing medical data stored in electronic information systems for patient registration, the architecture
    of a cloud platform for distributed data storage and an algorithm for ensuring the safety of
    medical data stored in the cloud are being developed. the platform in electronic form in the form
    of initial physiological signals (EEG, ECG, EMG, EOG, etc.) recorded during patient examinations;
    an integrated cloud platform for distributed storage, analysis and systematization of medical
    data and a security system using the developed protection method are being created; the effectiveness
    of the proposed algorithm for protecting confidential medical information is analyzed in the
    context of integration into the developed cloud platform. The proposed method for protecting a
    medical information system involves the use of an original DICOM file and subsequently a converted
    PNG image, which is subjected to a pixel encryption algorithm. An algorithm based on
    chaos theory is used to encrypt the image. The capabilities of chaos systems can significantly increase
    productivity. Hierarchical division of data streams into levels and standardization of data
    transfer protocols, as well as their storage formats, allow to form a universal, flexible and reliable
    medical information system. The proposed architecture has the ability to integrate into existing
    medical systems. In the course of the work, it was found that the considered protection method is
    an effective way to ensure the confidentiality of medical system data.

  • COMPUTATIONALLY EFFICIENT METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE AVERAGE LINEAR PROPERTIES OF PSEUDO-DYNAMIC SUBSTITUTIONS

    S.V. Polikarpov, V.A. Prudnikov, K.E. Rumyantsev
    Abstract

    Pseudo-dynamic substitutions PD-sbox can become an effective replacement for fixed substitutions
    in pseudo-random functions, since they have the positive properties of both fixed substitutions
    (low consumption of computational resources) and dynamic substitutions (which can radically complicate
    the application of statistical cryptanalysis methods). The problem of active implementation of
    pseudo-dynamic substitutions is, inter alia, the absence of a computationally efficient method for
    determining the averaged linear properties for the entire set of equivalent substitutions generated
    using PD-sbox, while in most cases, only the determination of the maximum values of the prevalence
    (bias) bias (α, β) from the ideal value 1/2. To solve this problem, an original method is proposed,
    which consists in the fact that the maximum dominance values are calculated only for relatively small
    fixed substitutions included in the PD-sbox, and the resulting maximum dominance values are obtained
    by iterative calculation using a logical-probabilistic expression for the Exclusive OR operation
    -NO (XNOR). The effect of using the proposed method is a dramatic reduction in computational
    operations and, accordingly, the possibility of determining on a typical personal computer the maximum
    values of the prevalence bias (α, β) for 16-element PD-sboxes consisting of 8-bit fixed substitutions
    (which is unattainable when using a trivial method).

  • PRINCIPLES OF FORMING A DATABASE OF ECG SIGNALS AND THEIR FRAGMENTS FOR EVALUATING THE CHARACTERISTICS OF WEARABLE DIGITAL ON-LINE MONITORS

    Ragheb Agha Mokhamed
    Abstract

    Electrocardiographic (ECG) signals have several properties that can greatly complement
    the existing, and more established biometric modalities. Some of the most prominent properties
    are the fact that the signals can be continuously acquired using minimally intrusive setups, are
    not prone to produce latent patterns, and provide intrinsic liveliness detection, opening new
    opportunities within the area of biometric systems development. The paper proposes methods
    for forming a database of ECG signals and their fragments for assessing the characteristics of
    portable digital on-line monitors. In the method of discrete wavelet transform (DWT) it allows
    to determine with high accuracy the presence of RR-intervals and their segments. This makes it
    possible to use this method for classifying ECG signals, forming a database of signal data records
    and generating test signals designed to assess the characteristics of wearable digital
    ONLINE monitors. This article presents an improved and more efficient algorithm by Discrete
    Wavelet Transform for generating electrocardiogram (ECG) signals from the PhysioBank archive
    to test the performance of an ECG machine.

  • APPLICATION OF FORBIDDEN SHAPES IN THE GRAPH COLORING PROBLEM WHEN DESIGNING PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARDS

    V. I. Potapov
    Abstract

    Designing a printed circuit board in the form of flat structures without jumpers is one of the
    most difficult tasks at the stage of circuit design. The task in this formulation is especially relevant for
    micro-assemblies for electronic modules of control and verification, on-board equipment, made using
    surface-mount technology, where, for example, due to a metal heat sink or a ceramic base, the structure
    of connections is possible only in one layer. The paper deals with the problem of designing
    printed circuit boards in the form of synthesis of flat structures of electronic circuits. The goal is to
    position the connections on the PCB without overlapping, making it easier for any router in modern
    design programs to route. To solve it, a large number of different algorithms have been proposed, the
    main disadvantage of which is the principle of sequential and fragmentary viewing of the switching
    space inherent in them. The complexity of the algorithms for the synthesis of such structures is also
    due to the need to take into account a large number of different requirements associated with the
    specifics of their manufacture and the features of the developed constructive and technological solution.
    In this paper, it is proposed to design a printed circuit board with a high efficiency of routing
    connections by solving the problem of stratifying the original graph-scheme and constructing a flat
    graph-scheme both on the installation side of the electrical radio elements and on the reverse side of
    the board - the soldering side, excluding forbidden figures according to Potryagin's theorem -
    Kuratovsky. The criterion is to minimize vias as well as minimize conductors (fins) on one side of the
    PCB. The bundle problem is a graph coloring problem in two colors using the principles of characterization
    control, the solution of which is based on the Koenig theorem, which defines a forbidden
    figure in the form of cycles of odd length. For the design of printed circuit boards, an algorithm and
    method for constructing planar graphs and stratifying the graph into two sides of the printed circuit
    board with a decrease in the number of undistributed edges have been developed. The exact solution
    takes the form of a polynomial dependence not higher than the 5th degree, it allows you to get the
    result in a reasonable time and increase the tracing efficiency by 5–15 %

  • VERIFICATION OF DYNAMIC BIOMETRIC PARAMETERS OF A PERSONALITY BASED ON A PROBABLE NEURAL NETWORK

    Y.A. Bryuhomitsky
    Abstract

    Biometric identity verification is used primarily for access to computer and mobile systems, as
    well as for remote (voice) verification. In fact, the most widespread systems are biometric verification
    systems based on a fixed passphrase, which are quite simple to implement, but very vulnerable to
    attacks of reproduction of a compromised short text. To eliminate this drawback, it is proposed to
    carry out identity verification using a text that is arbitrary in terms of volume, content and language
    (text-independent biometric verification). This paper proposes a generalized approach to solve the
    problem of identity verification by dynamic biometric parameters of different modality (keyboard
    writing, handwriting, voice). The presentation of dynamic biometrics signals is carried out by converting
    them into a sequences of information units, each of which contains the same number of counts
    of biometric signal of corresponding modality. The solution to this problem is carried out by monitoring
    the degree of concentration of closely located information units (clusters) at certain points of the
    multidimensional feature space. Such control is implemented on a probabilistic neural network thatstatistically evaluates the probability density of the distribution of information units in the corresponding
    clusters with the subsequent determination of the total probability density for the entire
    class of objects. The advantages of the proposed approach are: generalization of substantially different
    methods of text-independent identity verification by dynamic biometric parameters of different
    modality; the ability to make a verification decision for a fixed time of receipt of biometric data, determined
    by the size of the model used; the ability to set the verification accuracy by changing the
    dimension of the layer of probabilistic network samples. The disadvantage of the proposed approach
    is the need for software implementation of a large-scale neural network. However, this drawback is
    quickly leveled with an increase in the productivity of computer technology.

  • STUDY OF PARALLEL SOLUTION ORGANIZATION FOR EXTERNAL AERODYNAMICS PROBLEMS BASED ON SPLITTING SCHEMES

    V.V. Semenistyy , I. E. Gamolina
    Abstract

    The aim of this work is to study the ways to organize parallel solutions of external aerodynamics
    problems. A hybrid parallel-conveyor method for numerical solution of two-dimensional
    problems is considered. It allows to simulate the flow of viscous compressible fluids around objects
    of complex shape. A parabolized system of Navier-Stokes equations is considered, for the
    numerical solution a finite-difference algorithm is chosen. Due to its features (cost-effectiveness
    and stability in the study of boundary layers of moving bodies) this algorithm was preferred. To
    implement a nonlinear finite-difference scheme, the internal iterations are used in each main section.
    The developed parallel algorithm consists constructively of nested iterative loops. The system
    of equations is solved at each internal iteration. It is organized in two stages. At the first stage the
    equations of motion are solved; at the second stage the density is determined. At each fractional
    step of the internal iteration, one-dimensional data arrays are calculated. The paper uses the
    method of splitting the operator by physical processes. For the numerical solution of the problem,
    the factorization of the stabilizing operator is carried out. The scheme of the organization of the
    process of problem solving is given in each internal iteration. The paper proposes the principle of
    organizing parallel computing. The internal parallelism of the physical problem is used here.
    To implement the parallel algorithm, a computing environment is specially selected. It contains a
    decisive field of computing devices connected by switching connections, each of computing device
    has its own RAM. Besides computing environment contains a control device. The parallel algorithm
    uses a communication topology between worker processors. Reducing the dimension of the
    problem (to 2d) allows to save time on data exchange between the processors. In this paper, time
    estimates of the effectiveness of the developed parallel algorithm for each internal iteration are
    carried out. The use of the parallel run method and the proposed principle of organizing parallel
    calculations allow to increase the effectiveness of solving problems of such class.

  • MODELING OF TWO MICROSTRIP FILTERS OF THE CENTIMETER RANGE

    A.N. Zikiy , P. N. Zlaman
    Abstract

    Band-pass filters are an integral part of any radio equipment. They determine the selectivity of
    the receiver for all channels of reception. The aim of this work is to modelling two microstrip filters
    of the centimeter wave range. The object of study in this work are two microstrip filters at a frequency
    of 5.75 GHz and 4.6 GHz. Such filters can be used in the converter of the centimeter wave range
    as a signal and heterodyne filters. Two filters were simulated in the Microwave Office environment.
    The results are presented in the form of models of two filters and four amplitude-frequency characteristics.
    Given are the geometric dimensions of the filters, sufficient for their manufacture on material
    RT5870 of Rogers company. Filters have a bandwidth of 200 MHz and a loss in bandwidth of not
    more than 3 dB. Losses in the stop band for the signal filter were at least 45 dB, and at least 35 dB
    for the heterodyne filter, which is a very good result for a two-pole filter. Acceptable electrical parameters,
    small dimensions and moderate cost of manufacturing filters allows them to be widely used
    in professional and amateur radio equipment. To improve the manufacturability of manufacturing, a
    material with a low dielectric constant was selected. At the same time, gaps and tolerances on theaccuracy of their manufacture are acceptable. The design of the filters allows them to be easily
    integrated with other components of the converter: a low-noise amplifier, a mixer, an intermediate
    frequency amplifier, an amplifier in the local oscillator path.

  • THE STRUCTURE OF CUBATURE FORMULAS MODELLING FOR THE EFFICIENT FPGA IMPLEMENTATION

    N. S. Krivsha , V.V. Krivsha , S. A. Butenkov
    Abstract

    In the paper we present the new computing models for the common cubature formulas computing
    unit design and optimization. The basis of new modeling technique is related with the space
    granulation theory, developed in our recent papers. The Spatial Granulation Technique allows us
    to pass from computing in the metrical data points space to affine data space, contains the aggregated
    data units named as granules. The introduced data transformation based on the affineinvariant
    Cartesian granule model and on the optimal data points coarsening procedures. The
    useful properties of new data models allows to provide the very efficient multivariable data management
    procedures. The one of them is the multivariate cubature formulas calculation. The new
    theory provides the obvious matrix data processing models for the information graphs design andoptimization. We can perform the equivalent mappings for the complicated information graph
    models for the efficient structures matching. Optimized models of information graphs are used for
    the FPGA-based devices implementation. The main problem of FPGA design is the commutation
    structures complication for the large FPGA fields, obtained as the basic units for the reconfigurable
    cubature formulas computing units. In this work we use the high-level programming language
    COLAMO and assembler language Fire Constructor for the computing units implementation. As a
    result of new technique implementation we can provide the family of adequate and useful graphic
    representation for a multivariable cubature formulas over the matrix calculation. The provided
    models are suitable for the optimal design of configurable computing structures, universal and
    dedicated devices from the FPGA basis. For the device implementation the developed high-level
    software products are used. For the designed universal devices the testing procedures was performed
    and examined with the symbolic calculation software for the computing results evaluation.

  • EFFECTS OF NONLINEAR INFORMATION INTERACTION OF MARINE TECHNOGENIC OBJECTS

    А.А. Kurnosov
    Abstract

    With regard to the interaction of complex systems, the issues of monitoring the information situation,
    the types of information interactions and the topological approach to taking into account the
    multimedia interaction of complex systems in the underwater environment are considered. The classification
    of the main effects arising from information interaction of marine technogenic objects is
    given. Three main groups of effects associated with the physics of media, with the features of the
    propagation of energy in these media and with the features of the actual interaction of two or more
    objects are distinguished. The scheme of clustering of effects is given: uncertainty, incompatibility,
    nonlinearity, relativistic effects, effects on the boundaries of media. Within these clusters, the article
    considers the following effects: an increase in the intensity of information exchange, the emergence
    of unpredictable new connections, causal incompatibility, antipodes, glare, backlights, relativistic
    effects. It is shown that there are certain differences in the information interaction of objects in media
    with different interaction rates and dissipation of interaction energy. These differences are manifested
    in an increase in the intensity of exchange in dense media at some "proximity" distances. In thiscase, the emergence of unpredictable causal relationships is observed. During the exchange of information
    in these regions of the singularity, in addition to the effects caused by the peculiarities of
    the propagation of signals in water, the effects associated precisely with the information interaction
    of two or more objects are observed. It is noted that almost all effects can lead to a significant distortion
    of the information perceived by objects and to a violation of the decision-making process. Incompatibility
    effects have the greatest catastrophic potential. At high speeds of movement of marine
    technogenic objects for individual observers, a violation of causality is possible. The scheme of violation
    of causality in the interaction of objects is shown, associated with the loss of information of
    two types – relativistic (due to the excess of the speed of movement of objects over the speed of interaction
    in the medium) and geometric (due to the exit of a "fast" object from the region of "slow" pulse
    propagation). It is concluded that it is necessary to carry out physical simulation using highperformance
    systems and modern mathematical methods on a single criterion basis.

  • APPROACH TO TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT BASED ON THE IEC 61499 STANDARD

    D. M. Elkin , V. V. Vyatkin
    Abstract

    The number of vehicles on public roads is constantly increasing, and the development of road
    infrastructure is proceeding at a slow pace, and not high-quality transport management entails an
    increase in transportation costs, an increase in accidents, noise levels, and environmental pollution.
    As a consequence, there is a need to apply advanced algorithms and approaches to transport management
    in order to maximize the use of the existing road network and increase road capacity. In the
    course of recent studies, it has been revealed that adaptive approaches to traffic management are
    most effective on sections of the road network with high traffic intensity and variability. The essence
    of the approaches to adaptive management used today is that they are based on the analysis of traffic
    congestion and change the phases of traffic light operation depending on the received data in real
    time .. Adaptive traffic management shows much better results compared to tight control , significantly
    reduces transport delays, travel time and emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere,
    therefore, modern researchers are developing new and improving existing approaches and algorithms
    for adaptive transport control. For example, traffic management approaches based on the
    concept of IoT and the use of cloud computing are actively developing. The concepts of applying the
    agent-based approach to adaptive control are also being developed. The paper proposes a method
    for managing traffic flows and automating road infrastructure using an agent-based approach. The
    proposed approach includes distributed management of various elements of the road network and
    their direct interconnection with each other. To implement this concept, the open standard of distributed
    control and automation systems IEC 61499 was used, and to test the feasibility of implementation,
    several models of traffic intersections were used, one of which was created on the basis of real
    data and SUMO - a microscopic and continuous traffic simulation package.

  • RESEARCH OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE NOISE SIGNAL CONDITIONER AS A NOISE SOURCE IN MULTI-CHANNEL NOISE GENERATORS

    P.A. Zemlyanukhin , A. V. Kondratiev, S.S. Svidelsky
    Abstract

    The purpose of this work is to study the principle of operation and characteristics of a modulation-
    type noise signal conditioner in which quasi-harmonic noise signals are used as a carrier
    oscillation and modulating signal and in which the spectrum width of the noise signal is controlled
    in a given frequency range. A study of the structure of the construction characteristics of the noise
    signal generator that can be used to create adaptive multichannel noise generators to provide
    active protection of informative components of side electromagnetic radiation and interference
    (SERaI). According to the sources of domestic and foreign literature, as well as patent documentation,
    the analysis of technical solutions for the implementation of noise generators intended for
    masking SERaI were analyzed. The analysis confirmed the relevance of the problem of creating
    adaptive noise generators. It is noted that it is necessary to create multichannel adaptive noise
    generators to improve the characteristics of noise generators and make them more widely used in
    order to effectively counteract unauthorized leakage of information by hackers through the SERaI
    radiation channels. In these generators, each noise channel can be adjusted for power, generated
    noise signal and control of the noise masking frequency bandwidth, which will increase the electromagnetic
    compatibility of such devices. To ensure this, it is proposed to use two analog signalmultipliers in the noise signal conditioner, from the outputs of which the noise signals are summed
    and sent to the output of the noise signal conditioner which allows to obtain a uniform noise signal
    in amplitude. It provides control over the spectral width of the noise signal at least twice as compared
    to traditional methods of generating a noise signal using modulation methods.

  • KNOWLEDGE ENGINEERING USE FOR THE INTELLECTUAL SUPPORT OF MODELS’ TRANSLATION

    M. Y. Polenov, A. O. Kurmaleev
    Abstract

    In the work the problem of reuse of earlier developed software models in complex systems
    and their components, arising before researchers in case of necessity of transition to new modeling
    tools, is considered. As a solution to this problem, a Multitranslator software environment was
    developed, which made it possible to implement multilanguage translation of models' source codes
    into the required format of the target modeling environment using the created translation modules.
    Then, based on the Multitranslator, a client-server application was developed – a Distributed
    models library, which, along with the models translation function, performed the function of their
    network storage and access, providing a distributed implementation of the approach. The development
    of the approach and the Distributed models library was carried out in the direction of
    translation automation and resolving exceptional cases that occur during model translation
    caused by insufficient input data or uncertainty in model conversion decisions that occur when
    there are too many outcomes during parsing. To solve this problem, it was proposed to use an
    expert system with a knowledge base. Knowledge engineering is considered as the main process of
    synthesis of necessary knowledge for the knowledge base. The following sources of knowledge
    acquisition during the development of the expert system are proposed: the translation module of
    Multitranslator; technical documentation of input/output languages for describing models for
    translation; extended and additional publications on describing these languages; experts on languages
    for describing models for translation. The main stages of knowledge engineering are considered
    next: defining a knowledge acquisition strategy; identifying knowledge elements; creating
    a knowledge classification system; developing a detailed functional layout; pre-planning of control
    transfer processes; and defining system requirements. The results obtained will allow expanding
    the functionality of the Distributed models library when translating models using an expert
    system and efficient processing of uncertainties that arise during translation.

  • FORMATION OF THE ATMOSPHERIC ELECTRODE LAYER STRUCTURE

    S.S. Svidelsky, V.S. Litvinova, G. V. Kupovykh, A. G. Klovo
    Abstract

    The problem of the formation of the electric state in the lower layer of the atmosphere near
    the Earth's surface is considered in the article. An electrodynamic model of a non-stationary turbulent-
    convective surface layer is investigated in the approximation of the electrode effect. The
    initial system consists of the ionization-recombination equations for aeroions and the Poisson
    equation. Depending on the meteorological conditions in the atmosphere, the cases of classical
    and turbulent electrode effects, as well as the approximation of strong turbulent mixing, are considered
    separately. Turbulent and convective transport, the degree of air ionization, and the presence
    of submicron aerosol particles in the air are factors that affect the space-time structure of the
    electrode layer. Dimensionless parameters (similarity criteria) for electrodynamic equations are
    revealed, which allow choosing the appropriate approximation for modeling the structure of the
    electrode layer depending on atmospheric conditions. In an aerosol-free atmosphere, the time to
    establish a stationary state in the electrode layer is about 5 minutes, for the classical layer (the
    typical height is about 4-5 m), and in the turbulent layer-about 15 minutes. (the typical height is
    about 10 m). In the case of strong turbulent mixing, the distribution scale of electrical quantities
    increases to hundreds of meters. The ratio of the characteristic velocities of turbulent and convective
    processes indicates the predominant physical mechanism of ion transport and the formation of
    the electrode layer structure. An increase in the rate of convective transport directed downwards
    leads to a weakening of the turbulent mixing mechanism, and when moving up, the opposite effect
    occurs. The presence of a submicron aerosol in the atmosphere leads to the formation of heavy
    ions, the mobility of which is much less than that of aeroions. Single-charged aerosol particles
    with a concentration not exceeding the number of aeroions slightly change the spatiotemporal
    characteristics of the electrode layer. While the presence of repeatedly charged aerosol particles
    in the surface air increases the time of electrical relaxation and reduces the height of the electrode
    layer. At sufficiently high concentrations of aerosol (more than the number of aeroions by an order
    of magnitude or more), it is necessary to take into account its transport by turbulentconvective
    flows, and the structure of the electrode layer is determined only by heavy ions.

    Abstract

    The high demand for increased bandwidth, data rate and quality in optical communication
    systems in modern applications. Radio over free space optics (RoFSO) is deemed a new design
    methodology over wireless systems and networks. This technique has to ensure data rates like ones
    presented by means optical fiber communication techniques in keeping with a portion of its arrangement
    cost. Such systems are implemented by combined radio signal (RF) with optical signal,
    which containing various wireless administrations and Free Space Optics (FSO) link. In this paper,

    Thereafter, radio signal is added with 100 subcarrier channels of 10 MHz spacing channel at
    operated first channel frequency of 60 MHz. These subcarrier channels with 900 combined with
    10 GHz sin wave signal ( radio frequency ) at hybrid coupler, the combination of each subcarriers
    and radio signal are modulated by LiNb Mach-Zehnder optical modulator with 1550 nm wavelength
    continues wave laser signal at 10 dBm input power. The optical modulated signal (after
    optical modulator) is transmitted over a various free space optical link from 300m to 1km under
    the Atmospheric turbulence effect (the structure feature of the refractive index). The system is
    evaluated utilizing Opti system software with Q-factor and BER terminology. It is shown that the
    maximum optical distance for weak turbulence (
    at BER equal to 10-9 is
    950m, while the maximum optical distance for strong turbulence
    is 850m.

  • SET OF DISTINCTIVE FEATURES OF TLS V1.3 HTTPS-CONNECTION ESTABLISHING BY TOR SOFTWARE COMPLEX

    V.V. Lapshichyov, O.B. Makarevich
    Abstract

    The suppression of illegal activities of Internet users is one of the urgent problems of information
    security in the Russian Federation. The suppression of the activities of persons committing
    illegal actions using digital technologies, in particular, using the Tor anonymous network, is one
    of the tasks of federal law enforcement agencies that ensure information security. The difficulty of
    detecting and identifying the use of the Tor software package in data transmission networks is due
    to a number of measures taken by its developers aimed at masking the data flow of the complex,
    including the use of modern algorithms for encryption of data packets. The aim of the work is to
    create and describe a set of attributes for establishing an https-connection by the Tor softwarepackage in the context of using TLS data encryption using the version 1.3 protocol. The tasks of
    the work are the preparation and analysis of traffic materials of the Tor software package, as well
    as the creation, based on the data obtained, of a set of signs of establishing a connection between
    the client and the server of the anonymous network. In the course of analyzing the data flow of the
    anonymous network, the stage of establishing a connection between the client and the input server
    of the chain of nodes of the Tor network, the so-called "TLS handshake", was investigated. It
    should be noted that this work complements previous studies on the analysis of TLS encryption in
    terms of the TLS v1.3 encryption protocol used since 2018, describing its features as part of the
    mechanism for implementing anonymization by the Tor software package. The authors propose to
    use the size of the "TLS handshake" packets as the main features that carry identifying information
    about the establishment of an anonymous connection between the client and the Tor network node.
    The reported study was funded by Russian Ministry of Science (information security), project
    number 23/2020.

  • TRANSFORMING THE DECISION-MAKING EXPERIENCE

    S. L. Belyakov, M. L. Belyakova, S.A. Zubkov, N.A. Golova, K.S. Yavorchuk
    Abstract

    The problem of transferring the experience of decision-making in situational analysis using
    geoinformation systems is considered. The need for intellectual support from the geoinformation
    system is due to the fact that spatial objects and connections of the real world are extremely dynamic.
    Under these conditions, it is not possible to apply analytical models of processes and phenomena
    due to the incompleteness and inconsistency of the information describing them. Statistical
    models depend on a large number of factors, which vary as the geographical location of the
    situation changes. An alternative is to use the experience of experts who are able to make effective
    decisions in local spatial situations. The lack of control over the reuse of experience is a problem.
    The knowledge gained in developing solutions in one locality can lead to inadequate solutions in
    another locality. The experience of solving a problem in the same area loses its significance over
    time. In this paper, we propose a representation of knowledge in the form of an image consisting
    of a center and acceptable transformations of the center. Image transformation functions that
    perform knowledge transfer are introduced. The properties of transformation functions that carry
    procedural knowledge about the images of situations are analyzed. The use of the identified properties
    for the formation of a test plan for software transformation procedures is considered. Thecriteria for successful transformation are studied. The optimization problem of finding the best
    transformation function in the GIS knowledge base is formulated. A generalized method of transforming
    experience is proposed. An example of the synthesis of transformation methods for selecting
    an operational call center is given. The image of the situation of making a decision about
    choosing a land plot for a service center is transformed into the specified area on the GIS map.

  • ON THE INFLUENCE OF NOISE ON THE RECOGNITION OF THREEFOLD ROTATIONAL SYMMETRY IN HEXAGONAL IMAGES

    A.N. Karkishchenko, V.B. Mnukhin
    Abstract

    The article presents an algebraic approach to the representation and processing of digital
    images defined on hexagonal lattices. The described approach is based on the representation of images
    as functions on finite fields of “Eisenstein's integers”. As it turns out, the elements of such fields
    naturally correspond to the pixels of hexagonal images of certain sizes. The exponential and logarithmic
    transformations in the Eisenstein fields are described. A method for detecting the centers of
    threefold rotational symmetry in grayscale images is presented and the corresponding normalized
    measure of symmetry is introduced. The main purpose of the work is to study the effect of noise on the
    image on the quality of the symmetry assessment using the introduced measure. The noise factor must
    be taken into account, since a decrease in the measure can be caused not only by the incomplete
    symmetry of the real object, but also by distortions due to noise, which is almost always the case.
    Obviously, this difference will be proportional to the level of the noise component. Analytical estimates
    of the effect of noise on the criterion for detecting symmetry are obtained in this work. If images
    are subject to random noise, then the measure of symmetry of local image areas will be a random
    variable, the distribution law of which is determined by the distribution laws of noise components. At
    the same time, the standard for image processing assumption is made in the work about the model of
    normal and independent noise level of the brightness function. The peculiarity of the introduced
    threefold rotational symmetry measure does not allow directly applying standard methods to obtain
    probabilistic estimates. For this purpose, an assessment of the cumulative probability distribution
    function was carried out, on the basis of which an expression was obtained for the probabilities of
    deviation of the symmetry measure from the true value by a given value. By virtue of the a priori
    assumptions made, the obtained estimate should be considered as rather "cautious" and it can be
    expected that in reality the spread of the measure caused by noise in the image will be significantly
    less than the theoretically established boundaries.

    Abstract

    Informative signs of the dynamics of manipulation by control devices such as a mouse and
    keyboard play an important role in the development of software complexes for the identification of
    biotechnical systems (BTS) operators by their individual dynamics, in solving problems of diagnostics
    of various psycho emotional states and operator productivity. It finds application in the
    spheres of technical and law enforcement security, medical and energy spheres, etc. The purpose
    of this work is to formalize a set of informative signs of the dynamics of manipulation by control
    devices to solving the problem of diagnosing the productivity of BTS operators. To achieve this
    goal, an overview of the most frequently used features is presented, the Bayesian approach is considered
    in the statistical formulation of the recognition problem, a set of informative sings of the
    dynamics of keyboard handwriting and the dynamics of mouse manipulations is formalized basedon the results of a number of works. Operator productivity forecast based on fuzzy rules based on
    selected criteria gave an accuracy of more than 90%. The advantage of using the dynamics of
    manipulation of the control devices of the BTS operators is the absence of special equipment that
    requires additional costs.
