A Privacy-Preserving and End-to-End-Based Encrypted Image Retrieval Scheme [PDF]
Applying encryption technology to image retrieval can ensure the security and privacy of personal images. The related researches in this field have focused on the organic combination of encryption algorithm and artificial feature extraction. Many existing encrypted image retrieval schemes cannot prevent feature leakage and file size increase or cannot ...

Tidal response of groundwater in a leaky aquifer: application to Oklahoma [PDF]
Quantitative interpretation of the tidal response of water levels measured in wells has long been made either with a model for perfectly confined aquifers or with a model for purely unconfined aquifers. However, many aquifers may be neither totally confined nor purely unconfined at the frequencies of tidal loading but behave somewhere between the two ...
