Modern smartphone platforms offer a multitude of useful features to their users, but at the same time, they highly affect privacy, which may lead to unnecessary personal data being collected. In this paper, we proposed an evolutionary game model to study permission request strategies of the bounded rational application providers. We study the proposed model with detailed simulations. Initial results demonstrate that evolution processes are influenced by four factors: revenue increase ratio, market share, credit cost, and market attraction. It also suggests that establishing a privacy alarm mechanism not only can improve the users' privacy awareness but also decrease the market share when providers over-request permissions and push them request permissions properly.
One task of nonparallel speech conversion is to convert the source speaker's speech samples to the target speaker's speech samples, keeping the content unchanged. In view of the advantages of MaskCycleGAN-VC in nonparallel speech conversion, such as small model size and superior performance, our paper uses the basic structure of MaskCycleGAN-VC to improve it and proposes a cyclic boundary method filling in the frame MaskCycleGAN-VC (CBFMCycleGAN-VC) model, which predicts the voice of a person as he ages by using voice samples of his younger self. First, this paper adds speech preprocessing modules, including the Chebyshev low-pass filter and adaptive filter, which increases the robustness of the system. Second, our paper considers the time-domain difference in the weight parameters, which makes it easier to grasp the mapping law of the time-domain structure, with a faster convergence speed. Last, the circular boundary method is introduced to avoid the ringing effect, to enhance the connection between the filled frame and the adjacent frame, and to obtain a better generator. The simulation results show that the CBFMCycleGAN-VC model is more suitable for the speech conversion task of predicting the voice s of elderly people, and the convergence speed is faster. The converted voice is also closer to the voice of the target speaker in the time domain and frequency domain. Under the condition that the accuracy rate is similar to that of MaskCycleGAN-VC, the MOS score is 17.5% higher than that of MaskCycleGAN-VC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
