Free Website Building services (FWBs) provide individuals with a cost-effective and convenient way to create a website without requiring advanced technical knowledge or coding skills. However, malicious actors often abuse these services to host phishing websites. In this work, we propose FreePhish, a scalable framework to continuously identify phishing websites that are created using FWBs. Using FreePhish, we were able to detect and characterize more than 31.4K phishing URLs that were created using 17 unique free website builder services and shared on Twitter and Facebook over a period of six months. We find that FWBs provide attackers with several features …

To contribute to automating the medical vision-language model, we propose a novel Chest-Xray Difference Visual Question Answering (VQA) task. Given a pair of main and reference images, this task attempts to answer several questions on both diseases and, more importantly, the differences between them. This is consistent with the radiologist’s diagnosis practice that compares the current image with the reference before concluding the report. We collect a new dataset, namely MIMIC-Diff-VQA, including 700,703 QA pairs from 164,324 pairs of main and reference images. Compared to existing medical VQA datasets, our questions are tailored to the Assessment Diagnosis-Intervention-Evaluation treatment procedure used …

This paper proposes a novel Human-Robot Interactive System where users can interact with the robotic system using hand gestures, even from a distance, through a smartphone-based IoT-Controller Framework. The system is primarily designed to help people with vocal and hearing impairments. A mobile application records user gestures shown in front of a smartphone and sends the data to a server. The server performs gesture recognition and forms a command which is sent to the robotic system. The robotic system performs the required task based on the given command. The robotic system is set to carry out an object pick and …

In traditional neuropsychological tests, executive functions (EFs) are typically evaluated using paper and pencil or computer-based sit-down tasks. However, a new assessment framework, the Automated Test of Embodied Cognition (ATEC), has been developed to measure EFs and embodied cognition through physical tasks. This paper proposes integrating the ATEC system with virtual reality (VR) to evaluate and diagnose attention-deficit disorders using embodied cognition (EC) principles. The VR system will utilize Meta Quest 2 VR headsets and controllers with motion sensors to accurately capture users’ physical movements. The collected motion data will be transmitted to a remote server for evaluation through machine …

Understanding cognitive states from fMRI data have yet to be investigated to its full extent due to its complex nature. In this work, the problem of understanding cognitive fatigue among TBI patients has been formulated as a multi-class classification problem. We built a Spatio-temporal encoder model using convolutions and LSTMs as the building blocks to extract spatial features and to model the 4D nature of fMRI scans. To learn a better representation of the data and the condition, we used a self-supervised learning technique called "Contrastive Learning" to pretrain our encoder with a public dataset BOLD5000 and further fine-tuned our …

Mental or Cognitive fatigue (CF) is the exhaustion of the neurological system brought on by prolonged cognitive tasks. It causes performance to decline in day-to-day life. Throughout this paper, we present an experimental setup where we artificially induce cognitive fatigue to participants. During the experimental process, we collected electroencephalogram (EEG) signals from the subjects that participated in the experiment. The goal of the study is to detect the presence or absence of cognitive fatigue. Our proposed solution was able to classify cognitive fatigue of the subjects with an accuracy of 88.17%.

This paper describes a novel shared control teleoperation framework for mobile robots that utilizes Control Barrier Functions (CBFs) as filtering mechanism to prevent a human operator from making dangerous actions. The proposed framework demonstrates the potential to create a CBF controller that enables users with no prior knowledge of robotics to safely tele-navigate mobile robots with limited situational awareness. As formal methods, we utilize a hand-crafted CBF, which acts as a repulsive field to describe unsafe regions withing the robot’s vicinity. The implementation of the application was deemed possible by creating a Virtual Reality (VR) simulation in the Unity Engine …

We present a method for extracting high-level semantic information through successful landmark detection using feature fusion between RGB and depth information. We focus on the classification of specific labels (open path, humans, staircases, doorways, obstacles) in the encountered scene, which can be a fundamental source of information enhancing scene understanding, and acting towards the safe navigation of the mobile unit. Experiments are conducted using a manual wheelchair equipped with a stereo RGB-D camera that captures image instances consisting of multiple labels before fine-tuning on a pre-trained Vision Transformer (ViT).

The Domain Name System (DNS), which does not encrypt domain names such as "bank.us" and "dentalcare.com", commonly accurately reflects the specific network services. Therefore, DNS-based behavioral analysis is extremely attractive for many applications such as forensics investigation and online advertisement. Traditionally, a user can be trivially and uniquely identified by the device’s IP address if it is static (i.e., a desktop or a laptop). As more and more wireless and mobile devices are deeply ingrained in our lives and the dynamic IP address such as DHCP has been widely applied, it becomes almost impossible to use one IP address to …
