The relevance of this article stems from the need to develop lightweight and scalable solutions for decentralized systems (blockchain, IoT), where traditional cryptographic methods are inefficient or excessive. A theoretical-practical method for protecting unmanned transportation systems against Sybil attacks has been developed, based on a server robot’s analysis of each client robot’s unique directional electromagnetic signal power map signature. Experimental solutions for Sybil attack protection are demonstrated using two aerial servers deployed on quadcopters. The proposed keyless Sybil attack defense method utilizes WiFi signal parameter analysis (e.g., power scattering and variable antenna radiation patterns) to detect spoofed client robots. Experiments confirm that monitoring unique radio channel characteristics effectively limits signature forgery. This physical-layer approach is also applicable to detecting packet injection in robot Wi-Fi networks. The key advantages of the developed method include the elimination of cryptography, reducing computational overhead; the use of physical signal parameters as a "fingerprint" for legitimate devices; and the method's scalability to counter other threats, such as traffic injection.

This paper proposes a mathematical model of the laminar flow of a truly viscous lubricant in the clearance of a radial plain bearing with a nonstandard support profile. The influence of a fluoroplastic-containing polymer coating and a groove on the shaft surface is considered, taking into account nonlinear effects, which improves the accuracy of the description of hydrodynamic processes. Thin-film approximations and continuity equations are used to determine the hydrodynamic pressure, load capacity, and friction coefficient. A comparison with existing calculation models demonstrated improved performance prediction. The results demonstrate the feasibility of ensuring stable shaft floatation, confirming the applicability of the developed model for engineering calculations of bearings with a polymer coating and a groove.

This paper is devoted to the construction of a visual-inertial odometry system for an unmanned vehicle using both binocular cameras and inertial sensors as an information source, which would be able to simultaneously determine the vehicle's own position and the relative position of other road users. To ensure accurate and continuous localization, it is proposed to use an inertial navigation system and two types of image keypoints. Deep learning models are used to accurately and reliably track keypoints. To achieve efficient and reliable matching of objects between two frames, a multi-level data association mechanism is proposed that takes into account possible errors of various system components. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and application potential of the proposed system.

This article evaluates various methods for determining the technical condition of structures, buildings and structures. To date, probabilistic (statistical) methods are considered to be one of the possible options for determining the degree of destruction of building structures. The advantage of these methods is the ability to comprehensively take into account the parameters present in a variety of material nature. This is due to the possibility of describing them in dimensionless quantities. The purpose of the method under consideration is to formulate a certain number of technical conditions (events) through which it is planned to determine the degree of destruction and find a set of technical conditions of building structures. Diagnostic matrices are created by combining diagnostic features and their conditional probabilities, acquired by analyzing a large amount of accumulated statistical data.

This paper is devoted to the construction of a robust visual-inertial odometry system for an unmanned vehicle using binocular cameras and inertial sensors as information sources.The system is based on a modified structure of the VINS-FUSION system. Two types of feature points and matching methods are used to better balance the quantity and quality of tracking points. To filter out incorrect matches of key points, it is proposed to use several different methods. Semantic and geometric information are combined to quickly remove dynamic objects. Keypoints of static objects are used to complement the tracking points. A multi-layer optimization mechanism is proposed to fully utilize all point matchings and improve the accuracy of motion estimation. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the system.

The purpose of the article: to determine the possibility of using file hash analysis using artificial neural networks to detect exploits in files. Research method: the search for exploits in files is carried out based on the analysis of Windows registry file hashes obtained by two hashing algorithms SHA-256 and SHA-512, using three types of artificial neural networks (direct propagation, recurrent, convolutional). The obtained result: the use of artificial neural networks in file hash analysis allows us to identify exploits or malicious records in files; the performance (accuracy) of artificial neural networks of direct propagation and with recurrent architecture are comparable to each other and are much more productive than convolutional neural networks; the longer the length of the file hash, the more reliably it is to identify an exploit in the file

This paper provides a survey of metrics used to assess the quality of images generated by generative models. Specialized metrics are required to objectively evaluate image quality. A comparative analysis showed that a combination of different metrics is necessary for a comprehensive evaluation of generation quality. Perceptual metrics are effective for assessing image quality from the perspective of machine systems, while metrics evaluating structure and details are useful for analyzing human perception. Text-based metrics allow for the assessment of image-text alignment but cannot replace metrics focused on visual or structural evaluation. The results of this study will be beneficial for specialists in machine learning and computer vision, as well as contribute to the improvement of generative algorithms and the expansion of diffusion model applications.

The article considers the assessment of the suitability of solar radiation data from ERA5 atmospheric reanalysis for forecasting problems in the northern territories. The experimental site of the Mukhrino station (Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug), equipped with an autonomous power supply system, was chosen as the object of analysis. A statistical analysis of the annual array of global horizontal insolation data obtained using the PVGIS platform has been carried out. Seasonal and diurnal features of changes in insolation are considered, distribution profiles are constructed, and emissions are estimated using the interquartile range method. It is established that the data are characterized by high variability and the presence of a large number of zero values due to polar nights and weather conditions. The identified features must be taken into account when building short-term forecasting models. The conclusion is made about the acceptable quality of ERA5 data for use in forecasting energy generation and consumption in heating systems.
