This paper introduces a secured and distributed Big Data storage scheme with multiple authorizations. It divides the Big Data into small chunks and distributes them through multiple Cloud locations. The Shamir's Secret Sharing and Secure Hash Algorithm are employed to provide the security and authenticity of this work. The proposed methodology consists of two phases: the distribution and retrieving phases. The distribution phase comprises three operations of dividing, encrypting, and distribution. The retrieving phase performs collecting and verifying operations. To increase the security level, the encryption key is divided into secret shares using Shamir's Algorithm. Moreover, the Secure Hash Algorithm is used to verify the Big Data after retrieving from the Cloud. The experimental results show that the proposed design can reconstruct a distributed Big Data with good speed while conserving the security and authenticity properties.
In the past few years, there has been increasing interest in the perception of human expressions and mental states by machines, and Facial Expression Recognition (FER) has attracted increasing attention. Facial Action Unit (AU) is an early proposed method to describe facial muscle movements, which can effectively reflect the changes in people's facial expressions. In this paper, we propose a high-performance facial expression recognition method based on facial action unit, which can run on low-configuration computer and realize video and real-time camera FER. Our method is mainly divided into two parts. In the first part, 68 facial landmarks and image Histograms of Oriented Gradients (HOG) are obtained, and the feature values of action units are calculated accordingly. The second part uses three classification methods to realize the mapping from AUs to FER. We have conducted many experiments on the popular human FER benchmark datasets (CK+ and Oulu CASIA) to demonstrate the effectiveness of our method.
