TL‐GNN: Android Malware Detection Using Transfer Learning

ABSTRACTMalware growth has accelerated due to the widespread use of Android applications. Android smartphone attacks have increased due to the widespread use of these devices. While deep learning models offer high efficiency and accuracy, training them on large and complex datasets is computationally expensive. Hence, a method that effectively detects new malware variants at a low computational cost is required. A transfer learning method to detect Android malware is proposed in this research. Because of transferring known features from a source model that has been trained to a target model, the transfer learning approach reduces the need for new training data and minimizes the need for huge amounts of computational power. We performed many experiments on 1.2 million Android application samples for performance evaluation. In addition, we evaluated how well our framework performed in comparison with traditional deep learning and standard machine learning models. In comparison with state‐of‐the‐art Android malware detection methods, the proposed framework offers improved classification accuracy of 98.87%, a precision of 99.55%, recall of 97.30%, F1‐measure of 99.42%, and a quicker detection rate of 5.14 ms using the transfer learning strategy.

Less-supervised learning with knowledge distillation for sperm morphology analysis

ABSTRACT Sperm Morphology Analysis (SMA) is pivotal in diagnosing male infertility. However, manual analysis is subjective and time-intensive. Artificial intelligence presents automated alternatives, but hurdles like limited data and image quality constraints hinder its efficacy. These challenges impede Deep Learning (DL) models from grasping crucial sperm features. A solution enabling DL models to learn sample nuances, even with limited data, would be invaluable. This study proposes a Knowledge Distillation (KD) method to distinguish normal from abnormal sperm cells, leveraging the Modified Human Sperm Morphology Analysis dataset. Despite low-resolution, blurry images, our method yields relevant results. We exclusively utilize normal samples to train the model for anomaly detection, crucial in scenarios lacking abnormal data – a common issue in medical tasks. Our aim is to train an Anomaly Detection model using a dataset comprising unclear images and limited samples, without direct exposure to abnormal data. Our method achieves Receiver ROC/AUC scores of 70.4%, 87.6%, and 71.1% for head, vacuole, and acrosome, respectively, our method matches traditional DL model performance with less than 70% of the data. This less-supervised approach shows promise in advancing SMA despite data scarcity. Furthermore, KD enables model adaptability to edge devices in fertility clinics, requiring less processing power.

MultiFuseYOLO: Redefining Wine Grape Variety Recognition through Multisource Information Fusion.

Based on the current research on the wine grape variety recognition task, it has been found that traditional deep learning models relying only on a single feature (e.g., fruit or leaf) for classification can face great challenges, especially when there is a high degree of similarity between varieties. In order to effectively distinguish these similar varieties, this study proposes a multisource information fusion method, which is centered on the SynthDiscrim algorithm, aiming to achieve a more comprehensive and accurate wine grape variety recognition. First, this study optimizes and improves the YOLOV7 model and proposes a novel target detection and recognition model called WineYOLO-RAFusion, which significantly improves the fruit localization precision and recognition compared with YOLOV5, YOLOX, and YOLOV7, which are traditional deep learning models. Secondly, building upon the WineYOLO-RAFusion model, this study incorporated the method of multisource information fusion into the model, ultimately forming the MultiFuseYOLO model. Experiments demonstrated that MultiFuseYOLO significantly outperformed other commonly used models in terms of precision, recall, and F1 score, reaching 0.854, 0.815, and 0.833, respectively. Moreover, the method improved the precision of the hard to distinguish Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc varieties, which increased the precision from 0.512 to 0.813 for Chardonnay and from 0.533 to 0.775 for Sauvignon Blanc. In conclusion, the MultiFuseYOLO model offers a reliable and comprehensive solution to the task of wine grape variety identification, especially in terms of distinguishing visually similar varieties and realizing high-precision identifications.

SleepBoost: a multi-level tree-based ensemble model for automatic sleep stage classification.

Neurodegenerative diseases often exhibit a strong link with sleep disruption, highlighting the importance of effective sleep stage monitoring. In this light, automatic sleep stage classification (ASSC) plays a pivotal role, now more streamlined than ever due to the advancements in deep learning (DL). However, the opaque nature of DL models can be a barrier in their clinical adoption, due to trust concerns among medical practitioners. To bridge this gap, we introduce SleepBoost, a transparent multi-level tree-based ensemble model specifically designed for ASSC. Our approach includes a crafted feature engineering block (FEB) that extracts 41 time and frequency domain features, out of which 23 are selected based on their high mutual information score (> 0.23). Uniquely, SleepBoost integrates three fundamental linear models into a cohesive multi-level tree structure, further enhanced by a novel reward-based adaptive weight allocation mechanism. Tested on the Sleep-EDF-20 dataset, SleepBoost demonstrates superior performance with an accuracy of 86.3%, F1-score of 80.9%, and Cohen kappa score of 0.807, outperforming leading DL models in ASSC. An ablation study underscores the critical role of our selective feature extraction in enhancing model accuracy and interpretability, crucial for clinical settings. This innovative approach not only offers a more transparent alternative to traditional DL models but also extends potential implications for monitoring and understanding sleep patterns in the context of neurodegenerative disorders. The open-source availability of SleepBoost's implementation at https://github.com/akibzaman/SleepBoost can further facilitate its accessibility and potential for widespread clinical adoption.

EResNet-SVM: an overfitting-relieved deep learning model for recognition of plant diseases and pests.

The accurate recognition and early warning for plant diseases and pests are a prerequisite of intelligent prevention and control for plant diseases and pests. As a result of the phenotype similarity of the hazarded plant after plant diseases and pests occur, as well as the interference of the external environment, traditional deep learning models often face the overfitting problem in phenotype recognition of plant diseases and pests, which leads to not only the slow convergence speed of the network, but also low recognition accuracy. Motivated by the above problems, the present study proposes a deep learning model EResNet-support vector machine (SVM) to alleviate the overfitting for the recognition and classification of plant diseases and pests. First, the feature extraction capability of the model is improved by increasing feature extraction layers in the convolutional neural network. Second, the order-reduced modules are embedded and a sparsely activated function is introduced to reduce model complexity and alleviate overfitting. Finally, a classifier fused by SVM and fully connected layers are introduced to transforms the original non-linear classification problem into a linear classification problem in high-dimensional space to further alleviate the overfitting and improve the recognition accuracy of plant diseases and pests. The ablation experiments further demonstrate that the fused structure can effectively alleviate the overfitting and improve the recognition accuracy. The experimental recognition results for typical plant diseases and pests show that the proposed EResNet-SVM model has 99.30% test accuracy for eight conditions (seven plant diseases and one normal), which is 5.90% higher than the original ResNet18. Compared with the classic AlexNet, GoogLeNet, Xception, SqueezeNet and DenseNet201 models, the accuracy of the EResNet-SVM model has improved by 5.10%, 7%, 8.10%, 6.20% and 1.90%, respectively. The testing accuracy of the EResNet-SVM model for 6 insect pests is 100%, which is 3.90% higher than that of the original ResNet18 model. This research provides not only useful references for alleviating the overfitting problem in deep learning, but also a theoretical and technical support for the intelligent detection and control of plant diseases and pests. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Real-time early warning and the prediction of air pollutants for sustainable development in smart cities

Air quality forecasting is vital for sustainable development in smart cities and is essential to protect public health through early warning against air pollutants. This article presents a novel ensemble deep learning method able to capture spatiotemporal features on short-term time intervals and extract high data abstraction levels. This method uses a hierarchical framework with a new activation function called HT-Tanh to improve the prediction of air pollutant emissions in real time. As such, a residual neural network (ResNet) is integrated with a convolutional neural network (CNN) to deeply extract the temporal and spatial features from pollutant and meteorological data. The model network encodes the fully connected layer to fine-tune the CNN output and decodes the temporal prediction relations based on gate recurrent unit (GRU) to obtain more accurate results. The reliability of the proposed method is verified through a case study from Shantou City, China. The model performance is compared with the recently developed and traditional deep learning models. Results reveal that the proposed method has good precision in the multiscale air quality predictions. Compared with CNN-GRU, convolutional long short-term memory, and CNN models, the forecasting results of the proposed method are significantly improved. The presented method in this article can support the early warning systems in multiple regions for air pollution modeling studies.

Automatic Building Roof Plane Extraction in Urban Environments for 3D City Modelling Using Remote Sensing Data

Delineating and modelling building roof plane structures is an active research direction in urban-related studies, as understanding roof structure provides essential information for generating highly detailed 3D building models. Traditional deep-learning models have been the main focus of most recent research endeavors aiming to extract pixel-based building roof plane areas from remote-sensing imagery. However, significant challenges arise, such as delineating complex roof boundaries and invisible boundaries. Additionally, challenges during the post-processing phase, where pixel-based building roof plane maps are vectorized, often result in polygons with irregular shapes. In order to address this issue, this study explores a state-of-the-art method for planar graph reconstruction applied to building roof plane extraction. We propose a framework for reconstructing regularized building roof plane structures using aerial imagery and cadastral information. Our framework employs a holistic edge classification architecture based on an attention-based neural network to detect corners and edges between them from aerial imagery. Our experiments focused on three distinct study areas characterized by different roof structure topologies: the Stadsveld–‘t Zwering neighborhood and Oude Markt area, located in Enschede, The Netherlands, and the Lozenets district in Sofia, Bulgaria. The outcomes of our experiments revealed that a model trained with a combined dataset of two different study areas demonstrated a superior performance, capable of delineating edges obscured by shadows or canopy. Our experiment in the Oude Markt area resulted in building roof plane delineation with an F-score value of 0.43 when the model trained on the combined dataset was used. In comparison, the model trained only on the Stadsveld–‘t Zwering dataset achieved an F-score value of 0.37, and the model trained only on the Lozenets dataset achieved an F-score value of 0.32. The results from the developed approach are promising and can be used for 3D city modelling in different urban settings.

Impact of physical and attention mechanisms on U-Net for SST forecasting

Sea surface temperature (SST) prediction is a subject of great significance to the marine environment and human society. Changes in SST not only impact marine ecosystems and fishery resources but also trigger extreme weather events and disastrous consequences. Therefore, the precise prediction of SST is essential to avoiding these problems. Although numerous data-driven SST prediction models have emerged in recent years, these models are characterized by a lack of physical mechanisms related to sea temperature changes as well as insufficient generalization capabilities and interpretability. In our work, attempts were made to integrate physics-related convection phenomena into deep learning models, and traditional deep learning models were improved by incorporating time and space attention modules. The results of a series of experiments showed that the incorporation of physical mechanisms enhanced the performance of data-driven models. Furthermore, attention mechanisms were similarly helpful, of which temporal attention proved to be more important. The modules proposed in this work also improved the baseline model’s accuracy by 22%. In addition, seven-day SST predictions were carried out for the world’s five major fishing grounds. The results demonstrated that the application of transfer learning strategies yielded superior performance, further improving prediction accuracy by 1%–5%.

A Zero-Shot Image Classification Method of Ship Coating Defects Based on IDATLWGAN

In recent years, the defect image classification method based on deep transfer learning has been widely explored and researched, and the task of source and target domains with the same painting defect image class has been solved successfully. However, in real applications, due to the complexity and uncertainty of ship painting conditions, it is very likely that there are unknown classes of painting defects, and the traditional deep learning model cannot identify a few classes, which leads to model overfitting and reduces its generalization ability. In this paper, a zero-shot Image classification method for ship painting defects based on IDATLWGAN is proposed to identify new unknown classes of defects in the target domain. The method is based on a deep convolutional neural network combined with adversarial transfer learning. First, a preprocessed ship painting defect dataset is used as input for the domain-invariant feature extractor. Then, the domain invariant feature extractor takes domain invariant features from the source and target domains. Finally, Defect discriminators and domain alignment discriminators are employed to classify the known categories of unlabeled defects and unknown categories of unlabeled defects in the target domain and to further reduce the distance between the edge distributions of the source and target domains. The experimental results show that the proposed model in this paper extracts a better distribution of invariant features in the source and target domains compared to other existing transfer learning models. It can successfully complete the migration task and accurately recognize the painting defects of known categories and new unknown categories, which is a perfect combination of intelligent algorithms and engineering practice.

Early fire detection technology based on improved transformers in aircraft cargo compartments

The implementation of early and accurate detection of aircraft cargo compartment fire is of great significance to ensure flight safety. The current airborne fire detection technology mostly relies on single-parameter smoke detection using infrared light. This often results in a high false alarm rate in complex air transportation environments. The traditional deep learning model struggles to effectively address the issue of long-term dependency in multivariate fire information. This paper proposes a multi-technology collaborative fire detection method based on an improved transformers model. Dual-wavelength optical sensors, flue gas analyzers, and other equipment are used to carry out multi-technology collaborative detection methods and characterize various feature dimensions of fire to improve detection accuracy. The improved Transformer model which integrates the self-attention mechanism and position encoding mechanism is applied to the problem of long-time series modeling of fire information from a global perspective, which effectively solves the problem of gradient disappearance and gradient explosion in traditional RNN (recurrent neural network) and CNN (convolutional neural network). Two different multi-head self-attention mechanisms are used to classify and model multivariate fire information, respectively, which solves the problem of confusing time series modeling and classification modeling in dealing with multivariate classification tasks by a single attention mechanism. Finally, the output results of the two models are fused through the gate mechanism. The research results show that, compared with the traditional single-feature detection technology, the multi-technology collaborative fire detection method can better capture fire information. Compared with the traditional deep learning model, the multivariate fire prediction model constructed by the improved Transformer can better detect fires, and the accuracy rate is 0.995.

Identifying deoxyribonucleic acids of individuals based on their chromosomes by proposing a special deep learning model

One of the most significant physiological biometrics is the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA). It can be found in every human cell as in hair, blood, and skin. In this paper, a special DNA deep learning (SDDL) is proposed as a novel machine learning (ML) model to identify persons depending on their DNAs. The proposed model is designed to collect DNA chromosomes of parents for an individual. It is flexible (can be enlarged or reduced) and it can identify one or both parents of a person, based on the provided chromosomes. The SDDL is so fast in training compared to other traditional deep learning models. Two real datasets from Iraq are utilized called: Real Iraqi Dataset for Kurd (RIDK) and Real Iraqi Dataset for Arab (RIDA). The results yield that the suggested SDDL model achieves 100% testing accuracy for each of the employed datasets.

Infant cry classification using an efficient graph structure and attention-based model

Crying serves as the primary means through which infants communicate, presenting a significant challenge for new parents in understanding its underlying causes. This study aims to classify infant cries to ascertain the reasons behind their distress. In this paper, an efficient graph structure based on multi-dimensional hybrid features is proposed. Firstly, infant cries are processed to extract various speech features, such as spectrogram, mel-scaled spectrogram, MFCC, and others. These speech features are then combined across multiple dimensions to better utilize the information in the cries. Additionally, in order to better classify the efficient graph structure, a local-to-global convolutional neural network (AlgNet) based on convolutional neural networks and attention mechanisms is proposed. The experimental results demonstrate that the use of the efficient graph structure improved the accuracy by an average of 8.01% compared to using standalone speech features, and the AlgNet model achieved an average accuracy improvement of 5.62% compared to traditional deep learning models. Experiments were conducted using the Dunstan baby language, Donate a cry, and baby cry datasets with accuracy rates of 87.78%, 93.83%, and 93.14% respectively.

Premonition-driven deep learning model for short-term ship violent roll motion prediction based on the hull attitude premonition mechanism

Ship transit forecasting can provide advanced movement information to a multidimensional wave motion compensation system. However, traditional deep learning models based on data-driven or physical data have difficulty in accurately predicting the rapid variations in ship motion attitudes that frequently occur in complex ocean environments. Therefore, a premonition-driven deep learning model is proposed in this paper to significantly improve the prediction accuracy of ship violent roll motion. This model applies precursor information to predict premonitory values of ship prospective motion attitudes based on an integrated statistical regression model and then employs these premonitory values to revise the outputs of the deep learning time series model. First, a hull attitude premonition mechanism is presented based on biological premonition cognitive behaviour, which captures the correlation relationships between extreme values by downgrading the globally continuous time series prediction problem to a time-independent regression problem. The corresponding methods for predicting local extreme values and deep feedforward neural network cluster are established based on these correlation relationships between the extreme values to achieve precise premonitory values. Second, the time and amplitude variables of the extreme angle values are transformed to countdown time variables and sequential sets of premonitory angle values. Two types of premonition units and their respective premonitory long short-term memory neural networks are constructed to upgrade the regression problem to a globally continuous time series prediction problem. Finally, a single-step output recurrent strategy is applied to forecast the short-term ship motion attitude for fifteen seconds by considering eleven initially predicted points across the two datasets. In sixty-six simulation experiments, the mean absolute error, root mean squared error, and mean absolute percentage error of the premonition-driven long short-term memory neural networks are considerably lower than those of traditional deep learning models. These simulation experiments verify that the premonition-driven deep learning model can effectively forecast short-term violent ship roll motion and provide safeguards for cargo transfer.

SwinD-Net: a lightweight segmentation network for laparoscopic liver segmentation.

The real-time requirement for image segmentation in laparoscopic surgical assistance systems is extremely high. Although traditional deep learning models can ensure high segmentation accuracy, they suffer from a large computational burden. In the practical setting of most hospitals, where powerful computing resources are lacking, these models cannot meet the real-time computational demands. We propose a novel network SwinD-Net based on Skip connections, incorporating Depthwise separable convolutions and Swin Transformer Blocks. To reduce computational overhead, we eliminate the skip connection in the first layer and reduce the number of channels in shallow feature maps. Additionally, we introduce Swin Transformer Blocks, which have a larger computational and parameter footprint, to extract global information and capture high-level semantic features. Through these modifications, our network achieves desirable performance while maintaining a lightweight design. We conduct experiments on the CholecSeg8k dataset to validate the effectiveness of our approach. Compared to other models, our approach achieves high accuracy while significantly reducing computational and parameter overhead. Specifically, our model requires only 98.82 M floating-point operations (FLOPs) and 0.52 M parameters, with an inference time of 47.49 ms per image on a CPU. Compared to the recently proposed lightweight segmentation network UNeXt, our model not only outperforms it in terms of the Dice metric but also has only 1/3 of the parameters and 1/22 of the FLOPs. In addition, our model achieves a 2.4 times faster inference speed than UNeXt, demonstrating comprehensive improvements in both accuracy and speed. Our model effectively reduces parameter count and computational complexity, improving the inference speed while maintaining comparable accuracy. The source code will be available at https://github.com/ouyangshuiming/SwinDNet.

Prediction of chlorine residual in effluent based on SSA-SFA-CFBLS for water treatment process parameters

Accurate parameter prediction of chlorine residual in effluent is necessary for nonlinear, long-delayed water treatment process to raise water quality. To improve the prediction model precision and computational efficiency, a cascade broad learning system based on the sparrow search algorithm (SSA) and slow feature analysis (SFA) is proposed in this paper. First, the SFA method is introduced to extract the essential characteristics of water monitoring data as the input of the prediction model. Then, a cascaded broad learning system is adopted to establish a prediction model for residual chlorine in water works effluent. The cascade broad learning can deal well with online prediction. Furthermore, the SSA is utilized to obtain the optimal hyperparameters of the established model, which can avoid the complex and time-consuming manual parameter tuning process. Finally, the comparison experiment with several methods is carried out. The experimental results show that the proposed method saves more computational resources, and its time consumption is only 16.8% of that of the comprehensive deep learning model with basically the same accuracy. The prediction accuracy is improved, and its prediction accuracy is improved by 7.6% on average compared with most traditional deep learning models such as long short term memory (LSTM), recurrent neural network (RNN) and fated recurrent unit (GRU).

Global evapotranspiration simulation research using a coupled deep learning algorithm with physical mechanisms

AbstractEvapotranspiration (ET) and actual evapotranspiration (AET) serve as critical parameters in the water vapour exchange between terrestrial surfaces and the atmosphere. ET denotes the theoretical maximum evapotranspiration achievable under ideal conditions, whereas AET represents the actual evapotranspiration observed, factoring in the constraints imposed by available water resources. Precise estimation of AET is imperative for the optimization of water resource management and the advancement of sustainable development initiatives. In recent years, deep learning techniques have been extensively utilized in AET estimation. However, traditional deep learning models often lack the incorporation of essential physical constraints. We proceeded to enhance the loss function of the temporal convolutional network (TCN) by taking into account the physical relationships that exist among soil water content (SWC), potential evapotranspiration (PET) and AET, thereby introducing a novel physically coupled deep learning model (AET, SWC after kernel principal component analysis, PET, TCN and AKP‐TCN), and checked the rationality of the model with the FLUXNET 2015 dataset. These findings underscore that the AKP‐TCN model exhibits heightened sensitivity to peak fluctuations in AET under the imposition of physical constraints. This approach notably enhances the precision of AET simulations in areas marked by complex and variable climatic conditions, such as the Mediterranean climate zone and Oceania, achieving determination coefficient (R2) values surpassing the threshold of 0.900. Compared to traditional models, which include long short‐term memory (LSTM), convolutional neural networks (CNN) and TCN, the AKP‐TCN delivers substantial R2 improvements of 16%, 16% and 9%, respectively. This advancement offers a novel perspective for coupling deep learning with physical mechanisms.

Detection of peach soluble solids based on near-infrared spectroscopy with High Order Spatial Interaction network.

Due to the scalability of deep learning technology, researchers have applied it to the non-destructive testing of peach internal quality. In addition, the soluble solids content (SSC) is an important internal quality indicator that determines the quality of peaches. Peaches with high SSC have a sweeter taste and better texture, making them popular in the market. Therefore, SSC is an important indicator for measuring peach internal quality and making harvesting decisions. This article presents the High Order Spatial Interaction Network (HOSINet), which combines the Position Attention Module (PAM) and Channel Attention Module (CAM). Additionally, a feature wavelength selection algorithm similar to the Group-based Clustering Subspace Representation (GCSR-C) is used to establish the Position and Channel Attention Module-High Order Spatial Interaction (PC-HOSI) model for peach SSC prediction. The accuracy of this model is compared with traditional machine learning and traditional deep learning models. Finally, the permutation algorithm is combined with deep learning models to visually evaluate the importance of feature wavelengths. Increasing the order of the PC-HOSI model enhances its ability to learn spatial correlations in the dataset, thus improving its predictive performance. The optimal model, PC-HOSI model, performed well with an order of 3 (PC-HOSI-3), with a root mean square error of 0.421 °Brix and a coefficient of determination of 0.864. Compared with traditional machine learning and deep learning algorithms, the coefficient of determination for the prediction set was improved by 0.07 and 0.39, respectively. The permutation algorithm also provided interpretability analysis for the predictions of the deep learning model, offering insights into the importance of spectral bands. These results contribute to the accurate prediction of SSC in peaches and support research on interpretability of neural network models for prediction. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

DiffusionFR: Species Recognition of Fish in Blurry Scenarios via Diffusion and Attention

Blurry scenarios, such as light reflections and water ripples, often affect the clarity and signal-to-noise ratio of fish images, posing significant challenges for traditional deep learning models in accurately recognizing fish species. Firstly, deep learning models rely on a large amount of labeled data. However, it is often difficult to label data in blurry scenarios. Secondly, existing deep learning models need to be more effective for the processing of bad, blurry, and otherwise inadequate images, which is an essential reason for their low recognition rate. A method based on the diffusion model and attention mechanism for fish image recognition in blurry scenarios, DiffusionFR, is proposed to solve these problems and improve the performance of species recognition of fish images in blurry scenarios. This paper presents the selection and application of this correcting technique. In the method, DiffusionFR, a two-stage diffusion network model, TSD, is designed to deblur bad, blurry, and otherwise inadequate fish scene pictures to restore clarity, and a learnable attention module, LAM, is intended to improve the accuracy of fish recognition. In addition, a new dataset of fish images in blurry scenarios, BlurryFish, was constructed and used to validate the effectiveness of DiffusionFR, combining bad, blurry, and otherwise inadequate images from the publicly available dataset Fish4Knowledge. The experimental results demonstrate that DiffusionFR achieves outstanding performance on various datasets. On the original dataset, DiffusionFR achieved the highest training accuracy of 97.55%, as well as a Top-1 accuracy test score of 92.02% and a Top-5 accuracy test score of 95.17%. Furthermore, on nine datasets with light reflection noise, the mean values of training accuracy reached a peak at 96.50%, while the mean values of the Top-1 accuracy test and Top-5 accuracy test were at their highest at 90.96% and 94.12%, respectively. Similarly, on three datasets with water ripple noise, the mean values of training accuracy reached a peak at 95.00%, while the mean values of the Top-1 accuracy test and Top-5 accuracy test were at their highest at 89.54% and 92.73%, respectively. These results demonstrate that the method showcases superior accuracy and enhanced robustness in handling original datasets and datasets with light reflection and water ripple noise.
