- The Visual Object Tracking challenge VOT2018 is the sixth annual tracker benchmarking activity organized by the VOT initiative. Results of over eighty trackers are presented; many are state-of-the-art trackers published at major computer vision conferences or in journals in the recent years. The evaluation included the standard VOT and other popular methodologies for short-term tracking analysis and a “real-time” experiment simulating a situation where a tracker processes images as if provided by a continuously running sensor. A long-term tracking subchallenge has been introduced to the set of standard VOT sub-challenges. The new subchallenge focuses on long-term tracking properties, namely coping with target disappearance and reappearance. A new dataset has been compiled and a performance evaluation methodology that focuses on long-term tracking capabilities has been adopted. The VOT toolkit has been updated to support both standard short-term and the new long-term tracking subchallenges. Performance of the tested trackers typically by far exceeds standard baselines. The source code for most of the trackers is publicly available from the VOT page. The dataset, the evaluation kit and the results are publicly available at the challenge website (http://votchallenge.net).

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Attribute-based encryption (ABE) has been used to provide data confidentiality and fine-grained access control in the Internet of Vehicles (IoV). However, the attributes of vehicles in IoV might change frequently due to the movements of vehicles. Thus, the invalid attributes need to be revoked in time and efficiently to ensure the security of the system. In this paper, we propose a data-sharing scheme based on ABE for IoV. By using a binary tree and attribute version keys, flexible revocation can be achieved for IoV. Moreover, the ciphertext can be stored on clouds, and the distribution and revocation of attribute keys can be realized by distributed attribute authorities. We performed the security analysis and proved the security of the proposed scheme. The results showed that the proposed scheme has lower average computing overhead in terms of attribute revocations compared with other schemes based on ABE, and can satisfy the performance requirement of data sharing for IoV.

- To enhance utilization of wastes generated from steelmaking, a BOF slag sample from Ning Steel group in China is treated by oxidizing at 1500 °C for 30 min and then cooled by different methods. The treated samples are characterized, in combination with calculations using FactSage 6.4. XRD results show that iron oxides in BOF slag are converted largely by the oxidation to spinel phases, Fe3O4 and MgFe2O4, which also eliminates free CaO and MgO. EDS analyses show Fe element existing in di-calcium silicate and glass phase, which are Fe3+ ions formed by oxidation. An incorporation of Fe3+ ions into crystal structures has stabilized high temperature polymorph of C2S, β-C2S, and α’-C2S, in the treated slag samples. Fe3+ ions may also act as a network former to facilitate glass formation. This may make it possible for the glass and α’-C2S phase to complement each other, leading to a higher hydraulicity, while the BOF slag, after the spinel separation, is blended in cements. Some suggestions are proposed, based on the present and early studies, to enhance hydraulicity for the BOF slag, as well as grain sizes of spinel phases, which may result in economic and environmental benefits for steel and cement industries.

- Although steel slag exhibits cementitious properties, the addition of steel slag in cement is still limited due to both the presence of excess iron oxides and instability of free lime and periclase. This paper proposes a method for oxidizing molten slag in air, aiming at extraction of superfluous wustite and stabilization of free lime and periclase. Mineralogical characteristics of raw slag and modified products were examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy equipped with backscattered electron imaging (SEM-BEI), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Thermodynamic calculations were performed to aid to discuss the experimental results. The results indicate that non-magnetic wustite and periclase are transformed into magnetic spinel (magnetite/magnesioferrite) after oxidation. Temperature has a significant effect on the formation of spinel. The mass fraction of free lime decreases from 3.54 wt.% to 0.96 wt.% as a result of the conversion from free lime to calcium ferrite.

- In contrast to what is observed in aerobic uplands, microbial biomass and the presence of electron acceptors, such as iron oxides, play a crucial role in regulating soil organic C (SOC) mineralisation in paddy soils. However, the related underlying mechanisms are still poorly explored. We conducted an anaerobic incubation study to investigate changes in CO2 emissions from SOC and acetate (13C-labeleld) in response to iron oxide (ferrihydrite and goethite) addition in chloroform-fumigated and unfumigated paddy soils. The iron oxides, as electron acceptors, increased CO2 emissions from SOC with stronger impact under ferrihydrite than goethite addition. However, the acetate addition, as a preferable C source for reducing microbes, decreased SOC mineralisation and caused a negative priming effect. CO2 emission from both acetate and SOC was affected by microbial biomass change. In the acetate-treated soil, goethite in the fumigated soil (i.e. high microbial biomass) increased CO2 emissions from acetate, providing electron acceptors, and decreased CO2 emissions from SOC. Ferrihydrite accepted electrons and adsorbed acetate, resulting in a slight decline in CO2 emission from acetate. However, in the fumigated soil (i.e. low microbial biomass), both iron oxide additions reduced CO2 emissions from acetate and SOC and likely the dominant role of both iron oxides shifted from being electron acceptors to being adsorbents, thus limiting acetate accessibility to microorganisms. The results suggest that microbial biomass is a key driver in shifting the effects of iron oxides on organic C mineralisation in anaerobic paddy soils.

- Rice paddy agro-ecosystems play an important role in global carbon (C) sequestration. Because of flooding management, paddy soil experience periodical changes in oxygen availability, which may make soil organic carbon (SOC) mineralisation unique as compared to upland or other wetland ecosystems. However, at present, information about the relevant mechanisms involved in paddy SOC mineralisation is limited and unclear. We selected three paddy soils with variable iron (Fe) contents, which were either fumigated with chloroform (to reduce microbial biomass) or remained un-fumigated. Soils were incubated for 78 days in one of three treatments: alternating nonflooded–flooded (NF: moist for 0–30 days (oxygen-abundant) and flooded for 31–78 days (oxygen-limited)), continuously flooded (CF: oxygen-limited), and continuously anaerobically flooded (AF: oxygen-depleted). Fumigation reduced the microbial biomass C by more than 70%. Except for the nonflooded period in the NF treatment, the SOC mineralisation rate, at the late stage of each treatment, was significantly lower in the fumigated than in the un-fumigated soil. A multiple regressions showed that a reduction in dissolved organic C contents over time contributed to the cumulative SOC mineralisation only during the nonflooded period in the NF treatment. Furthermore, the labile C pool size was smaller in the AF treatment relative to the other treatments. These imply that dissolved substrates in oxygen-depleted paddy soil were of greater recalcitrance, most likely due to thermodynamic reasons. SOC mineralisation correlated with changes in the redox potential and the Fe2+ contents in the CF and AF treatments only. This indicates that under oxygen-limited and -depleted conditions, Fe played a significant role as an electron acceptor during SOC mineralisation. Correlation and linear regression analyses also suggest that Fe influenced dissolved organic C contents, and hydrolase and oxidative activities. Our findings show that SOC bioavailability is a rate-limiting factor for SOC mineralisation, but only under oxygen-abundant conditions. However, under oxygen-limited or -depleted conditions, microbial biomass, the recalcitrance of organic C compounds, and the availability of electron acceptors are key regulators in determining the intensity and rate of SOC mineralisation.

- Sharing data among vehicles is one of the most important ways to provide safety-related and value-added services to connected vehicles. Nevertheless, access to the shared data must be controlled to prevent the exposure of users' privacy and data leakage or corruption. Attribute-based encryption (ABE) can provide data confidentiality and fine-grained access control. However, the complex and dynamic driving environment of vehicles may cause the attributes of vehicles to change frequently, and thus put a huge burden on the attribute management of the system or degrade the security of the system. In this paper, we propose a secure data sharing method by using ABE and blockchain for Internet of Vehicles. By using ABE, the data owner can stipulate the policy of the data access control based on the attributes of vehicles. The trusted authority is replaced by blockchain, which reduces the burden and solved the problem of single point failure of the trusted authority and increases the transparency of the whole system. An adaptive attribute revocation method is used to balance the revocation time and system cost. Moreover, the shared data are stored in a distributed Inter-Planetary File System (IPFS) to improve the efficiency and security of the data sharing system. The test results show that the proposed method can well satisfy the performance requirement of secure data sharing for Internet of Vehicles.

- We hypothesized that key signaling pathways of glioma genesis might enable the molecular classification of gliomas. Gene coexpression modules around epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) (EM, 29 genes) or platelet derived growth factor receptor A (PDGFRA) (PM, 40 genes) in gliomas were identified. Based on EM and PM expression signatures, nonnegative matrix factorization reproducibly clustered 1,369 adult diffuse gliomas WHO grades II-IV from four independent databases generated in three continents, into the subtypes (EM, PM and EMlowPMlow gliomas) in a morphology-independent manner. Besides their distinct patterns of genomic alterations, EM gliomas were associated with higher age at diagnosis, poorer prognosis, and stronger expression of neural stem cell and astrogenesis genes. Both PM and EMlowPMlow gliomas were associated with younger age at diagnosis and better prognosis. PM gliomas were enriched in the expression of oligodendrogenesis genes, whereas EMlowPMlow gliomas were enriched in the signatures of mature neurons and oligodendrocytes. The EM/PM-based molecular classification scheme is applicable to adult low-grade and high-grade diffuse gliomas, and outperforms existing classification schemes in assigning diffuse gliomas to subtypes with distinct transcriptomic and genomic profiles. The majority of the EM/PM classifiers, including regulators of glial fate decisions, have not been extensively studied in glioma biology. Subsets of these classifiers were coexpressed in mouse glial precursor cells, and frequently amplified or lost in an EM/PM glioma subtypespecific manner, resulting in somatic copy number alteration-dependent gene expression that contributes to EM/PM signatures in glioma samples. EM/PM-based molecular classification provides a molecular diagnostic framework to expedite the search for new glioma therapeutic targets.
