Coverless Information Hiding Based onDeep Learning Approach:Review

The proliferation of digitalization in the realm of information has paved the way for numerous types of multimedia data to be attacked. Hence, the security of information has become a critical concern. Over the years, image steganography has been widely acknowledged as one of the most effective techniques for securing confidential information. This methodology comprises the integration of sensitive information into a cover image via the manipulation of specific pixels, resulting in the formation of a steganography image. However, it is imperative to note that such manipulations could be identified by steganalysis algorithms, thus undermining the security of the message. To address the aforementioned concern, the notion of coverless image steganography has been introduced, which serves as a promising solution. The coverless image steganography technique entails the establishment of a mapping correlation between the content of the clandestine message and the cover images, while leaving the cover images unaltered. This review article meticulously scrutinizes the recent studies on coverless image steganography, thereby furnishing significant and profound insights into the techniques

Impact of Technology Utilization and Digital Literacy on The Satisfaction of Adopting Campus Information Systems

In the realm of education, digital literacy encompasses various aspects such as ensuring equitable access to technology, nurturing critical thinking abilities, cultivating information literacy, and instilling responsible digital citizenship. These endeavors aim to equip individuals with the essential skills and knowledge needed to effectively and responsibly navigate the vast realm of digital information. The research aims to explore the impact of technology utilization and digital literacy on the satisfaction of adopting campus information systems. The author employed a non-parametric approach, specifically PLS-SEM, in this study by conducting a survey among students who have utilized the campus information system. The research involved a total of 243 student respondents who participated through a Google Form. The validity and reliability testing indicated that the data collected was both valid and reliable. Subsequently, the author proceeded to analyze the data using Partial Least Squares. The statistical analysis of the data revealed significant evidence that the utilization of technology, as indicated by Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, and Digital Literacy, influences users' attitudes towards the campus information system, ultimately impacting user satisfaction. The originality and value of the findings lie in their contribution to the existing body of knowledge in the field. The research sheds light on the relationship between technology utilization, digital literacy, attitudes towards the campus information system, and user satisfaction. By identifying and demonstrating the significant impact of these factors, the findings provide valuable insights for academia, practitioners, and decision-makers in enhancing technology adoption and improving user experiences in the educational context. Additionally, the research adds to the literature by utilizing a non-parametric approach and incorporating a large number of student respondents, thereby strengthening the validity and generalizability of the findings. One constraint of this research is its reliance on self-reported data, which has the potential to introduce biases and inaccuracies due to the subjective nature of respondents. Furthermore, the study solely focused on the perspectives of students who have already adopted the campus information system, potentially disregarding the viewpoints and experiences of non-users. Although the sample size of respondents was considerable, it may not fully represent the entire student population, thus limiting the generalizability of the findings. Additionally, since the research was carried out within a specific educational context, the applicability of the results to other settings or institutions may be constrained. To overcome these limitations, future studies could employ a variety of data collection methods, such as longitudinal designs, and include a more comprehensive and diverse range of participants.

State-of-art applications and the function of quantum entanglement in quantum information

Quantum information is a cutting-edge technology that has numerous applications. It mainly makes usage of some quantum entanglement characteristics and uses the quantum entangled state as a carrier for information transfer. Therefore, compared to traditional information, quantum information has excellent features, e.g., stronger security and reduced susceptibility to interference. This article introduces the definition, concept, characteristics and history of quantum entanglement and quantum information. To be specific, this study lists the applications of quantum entanglement in communication and radar. In addition, it gives an outlook on the future function of quantum entanglement in quantum information based on the advantages and disadvantages of quantum entanglement. Contemporarily, the field of physics is rapidly advancing in both quantum entanglement and quantum information, and there have also been significant technological advancements. In experiments, scientists have been able to extend the transmission distance of quantum information to great distances. At the same time, scholars are looking for ways to minimise the interference of quantum information during transmission. In constant exploration and experimentation, the experimental results have inspired scientists to explore the deeper realms of quantum information.

Optimal entanglement generation in GHZ-type states

The entanglement production is key for many applications in the realm of quantum information, but so is the identification of processes that allow to create entanglement in a fast and sustained way. Most of the advances in this direction have been circumscribed to bipartite systems only, and the rate of entanglement in multipartite system has been much less explored. Here we contribute to the identification of processes that favor the fastest and sustained generation of tripartite entanglement in a class of 3-qubit GHZ-type states. By considering a three-party interaction Hamiltonian, we analyze the dynamics of the 3-tangle and the entanglement rate to identify the optimal local operations that supplement the Hamiltonian evolution in order to speed-up the generation of three-way entanglement, and to prevent its decay below a predetermined threshold value. The appropriate local operation that maximizes the speed at which a highly-entangled state is reached has the advantage of requiring access to only one of the qubits, yet depends on the actual state of the system. Other universal (state-independent) local operations are found that conform schemes to maintain a sufficiently high amount of 3-tangle. Our results expand our understanding of entanglement rates to multipartite systems, and offer guidance regarding the strategies that improve the efficiency in various quantum information processing tasks.

Putting Things in Perspective: Building on Our Experience

The science and policy underlying food labeling and food fortification have evolved over the past 30 years to a point where dietary guidance and nutrition labeling now provide consumers with highly sophisticated, very specific information about links between diet and health. The focus was once on prevention of nutrient deficiency diseases, but today it is on reducing the risk of chronic diseases and health‐related conditions. The Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990, with its provisions for authorization of health claims on food labels, has provided a gateway through which a broader realm of nutrition and health information can be made available to consumers. However, the interpretation and implementation of the health claim provisions must evolve, based on a strong foundation of supporting science, so that industry may more readily make health information available to consumers in a form that is easily understood and effectively used in making their dietary choices. We must develop a database to support claims of beneficial effects of food components. We must be assured that the beneficial effects are not outweighed by safety concerns. And we must develop an environment that is conducive to conducting the research to develop these data. This can only be accomplished through the collaborative efforts of industry, academia, consumers and public health agencies.

The War on Privacy – or, Privacy as a Strategy for Liberty

In the last chapter of The Ethics of Liberty, Rothbard discusses his theory of strategy for liberty, and recommends tools such as education that libertarians can lean on to attain the highest political goal of freedom. Building on Rothbard’s shoulders, the main thesis of this paper is that an effective theory of strategy for liberty cannot dispense with privacy, which needs to be understood as a condition for the enjoyment of liberty and not as a right per se. In the first section, the discussion is framed in the context of natural rights libertarianism. Then, a metaphysical taxonomy of property is provided, which articulates the functioning of property rights and privacy in the realm of the body and of the mind, in the realm of alienable goods and services, and in the realm of information. The third section deals with the war on privacy that is raging nowadays; not coincidentally, the ultimate enemy of this war is private property. The last part of the paper contends that Rothbard is correct in reducing privacy rights to property rights, but this doesn’t mean that privacy has no place in libertarian thought; on the contrary, privacy is one of the main conditions for the defense and preservation of property rights, and, in the case of information, property cannot even exist without it. If these theses are true, libertarians need to find a proper place for privacy in their theory of strategy for liberty.

Hybrid classical-quantum machine learning based on dissipative two-qubit channels

Although the environmental effects, i.e., dissipation and decoherence seem to be the strongest adversaries in the quantum information realm, here, we address how dissipation can be harnessed for quantum state preparation and universal quantum computation. In this line, we propose a realistic scheme for hybrid classical-quantum neural networks based on dissipative two-qubit channels. In particular, we design a variational quantum circuit consisting of a set of universal quantum gates. We encode classical information in the initial states of a two-qubit system interacting with a global environment. This composite system plays the role of a dissipative quantum channel (DQC). A pooling layer concatenates the output states of the DQCs resulting in the outcome of the circuit. Both the DCQs and the pooling layer provide superposition and entanglement which are the key ingredients of any universal quantum computation protocol. Finally, we investigate the capability and adaptability of this model by doing some machine learning tasks. It is reasonable to postulate that a quantum computer based on DQCs may outperform a classical computer because, in contrast to the latter, the former is capable of producing atypical patterns through non-classical phenomena.

THE CHURCH AS AN ELEMENT OF “SHARP POWER” OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION

The article analyses the essence of the term “sharp power” and deals with the role of “sharp power” in the foreign policy of the Russian Federation. First of all, the article focuses on the activities of the Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate (UOC-MP) and the role they play as an elements of Russia’s “sharp power” directed against Ukraine. During the war that Russia wages in the territory of Ukraine the main function of the Russian Orthodox Church is to justify aggression in the eyes of Orthodox believers. The ROC resorts to spreading disinformation and constructing myths that are intended to serve as argumentation for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. One of such myths is a false statement about Ukrainians and Russians being the same people, which is being actively spread by the ROC and the Russian leadership. Although the official statements of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Moscow Patriarchate, which is canonically and administratively subordinated to the ROC, are more cautious, but, as demonstrated in the article, it has been promoting pro-Russian narratives among Orthodox believers for years. It was spreading disinformation about Russia’s annexation of Crimea and Russia’s aggression in the Donbas region and making efforts to create a favourable image of Russia among Ukrainians. The article analyses the changes in the UOC-MP official position that have taken place after the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. The article particularly assesses the statement made by the Council of the UOC-MP in May 2022 about its decision on the “complete independence and self-sufficiency” and break with the ROC. The article argues that this decision is manipulative and purely declarative and did not bring any changes into the status of the UOC-MP. The article concludes by emphasising the importance of informing the Ukrainian society about the dangers of the Russian church “sharp power”, which is especially relevant during the war the Russia wages against Ukraine not only on the battlefield but also in the information realm.

Model for State Cyber Power: Case Study of Russian Behaviour

The emerging cyber environment with new information channels provides a novel avenue for states to project their powers to govern their residents and fulfil their international ambitions. The recent manipulation of elections, coercing companies, blackmailing citizens, and suppressing essential infrastructure services reflects an increased activity and development both by state and non-state entities in the cyber environment. Several models for inter-state power projection are created in studies of international relationships, military strategy, and, recently, hybrid warfare. Do these models recognise the foundational transformation in international power projection? Do they explain the current national cyber strategies? Can they help foresee the possible developments of power projection in international confrontations? The paper seeks a bigger picture from other power strategies in fulfilling the state’s political ambitions. Furthermore, the paper explores the evolution of the cyber environment and its possible emerging features for international power projection. A constructive research method builds a multiple domain power projection model by combining systems thinking with various models from international relationships, military strategies, business strategies to classical decision making. Finally, the feasibility of the model is tested in a case study of Russian cyber strategies and actions between 2007-2020 from a positivistic approach. As a result, the model seems to help explain the past cyber power-wielding and provide insights into current national cyber policies. Further testing is required to evaluate the model’s feasibility in creating a foresight. Nevertheless, the proposed state-level cyber power projection model extends the existing models with a system dynamics viewpoint. Additionally, it adds the dimension of evolution to consider the future changes of international power projections in the information realm. Hence, the model improves the ability of national defence planners to study cyber strategies and estimate the lines of operation and impact of cyber operations.
