The increased interest for these systems as evidenced by the large number of applications led to complex research regarding the most suitable methods for design and development. A promising solution for specification, visualization, and documentation of CPSs uses the Object Management Group (OMG) unified modeling language (UML). UML models allow an intuitive approach for embedded systems design, helping end-users to specify the requirements. However, the UML models are represented in an informal language. Therefore, it is difficult to verify the correctness and completeness of a system design. The object constraint language (OCL) was defined to add constraints to UML, but it is deficient in strict notations of mathematics and logic that permits rigorous analysis and reasoning about the specifications. In this paper, we investigated how CPS applications modeled using UML deployment diagrams could be formally expressed and verified. We used Z language constructs and prototype verification system (PVS) as formal verification tools. Considering some relevant case studies presented in the literature, we investigated the opportunity of using this approach for validation of static properties in CPS UML models.展开更多

The documents are ranked according to the relative entropies of estimated document language models with respect to the estimated query language model. Two popular and relatively efficient smoothing methods, the Jelinek- Mercer method and the absolute discounting method, are used to smooth the document language model in estimation of the document language, A combined model composed of the feedback document language model and the collection language model is used to estimate the query model. A performacne comparison between the new retrieval method and the existing method with feedback is made, and the retrieval performances of the proposed method with the two different smoothing techniques are evaluated on three Text Retrieval Conference (TREC) data sets. Experimental results show that the method is effective and performs better than the basic language modeling approach; moreover, the method using the Jelinek-Mercer technique performs better than that using the absolute discounting technique, and the perfomance is sensitive to the smoothing peramters.展开更多

文摘War rehearsals have become increasingly important in national security due to the growing complexity of international affairs.However,traditional rehearsal methods,such as military chess simulations,are inefficient and inflexible,with particularly pronounced limitations in command and decision-making.The overwhelming volume of information and high decision complexity hinder the realization of autonomous and agile command and control.To address this challenge,an intelligent warfare simulation framework named Command-Agent is proposed,which deeply integrates large language models(LLMs)with digital twin battlefields.By constructing a highly realistic battlefield environment through real-time simulation and multi-source data fusion,the natural language interaction capabilities of LLMs are leveraged to lower the command threshold and to enable autonomous command through the Observe-Orient-Decide-Act(OODA)feedback loop.Within the Command-Agent framework,a multimodel collaborative architecture is further adopted to decouple the decision-generation and command-execution functions of LLMs.By combining specialized models such as Deep Seek-R1 and MCTool,the limitations of single-model capabilities are overcome.MCTool is a lightweight execution model fine-tuned for military Function Calling tasks.The framework also introduces a Vector Knowledge Base to mitigate hallucinations commonly exhibited by LLMs.Experimental results demonstrate that Command-Agent not only enables natural language-driven simulation and control but also deeply understands commander intent.Leveraging the multi-model collaborative architecture,during red-blue UAV confrontations involving 2 to 8 UAVs,the integrated score is improved by an average of 41.8%compared to the single-agent system(MCTool),accompanied by a 161.8%optimization in the battle loss ratio.Furthermore,when compared with multi-agent systems lacking the knowledge base,the inclusion of the Vector Knowledge Base further improves overall performance by 16.8%.In comparison with the general model(Qwen2.5-7B),the fine-tuned MCTool leads by 5%in execution efficiency.Therefore,the proposed Command-Agent introduces a novel perspective to the military command system and offers a feasible solution for intelligent battlefield decision-making.

文摘The personalized fine-tuning of large languagemodels(LLMs)on edge devices is severely constrained by limited computation resources.Although split federated learning alleviates on-device burdens,its effectiveness diminishes in few-shot reasoning scenarios due to the low data efficiency of conventional supervised fine-tuning,which leads to excessive communication overhead.To address this,we propose Language-Empowered Split Fine-Tuning(LESFT),a framework that integrates split architectures with a contrastive-inspired fine-tuning paradigm.LESFT simultaneously learns frommultiple logically equivalent but linguistically diverse reasoning chains,providing richer supervisory signals and improving data efficiency.This process-oriented training allows more effective reasoning adaptation with fewer samples.Extensive experiments demonstrate that LESFT consistently outperforms strong baselines such as SplitLoRA in task accuracy.LESFT consistently outperforms strong baselines on GSM8K,CommonsenseQA,and AQUA_RAT,with the largest gains observed on Qwen2.5-3B.These results indicate that LESFT can effectively adapt large language models for reasoning tasks under the computational and communication constraints of edge environments.

文摘Large language models(LLMs)have revolutionized AI applications across diverse domains.However,their widespread deployment has introduced critical security vulnerabilities,particularly prompt injection attacks that manipulate model behavior through malicious instructions.Following Kitchenham’s guidelines,this systematic review synthesizes 128 peer-reviewed studies from 2022 to 2025 to provide a unified understanding of this rapidly evolving threat landscape.Our findings reveal a swift progression from simple direct injections to sophisticated multimodal attacks,achieving over 90%success rates against unprotected systems.In response,defense mechanisms show varying effectiveness:input preprocessing achieves 60%–80%detection rates and advanced architectural defenses demonstrate up to 95%protection against known patterns,though significant gaps persist against novel attack vectors.We identified 37 distinct defense approaches across three categories,but standardized evaluation frameworks remain limited.Our analysis attributes these vulnerabilities to fundamental LLM architectural limitations,such as the inability to distinguish instructions from data and attention mechanism vulnerabilities.This highlights critical research directions such as formal verification methods,standardized evaluation protocols,and architectural innovations for inherently secure LLM designs.

文摘Online Public Opinion Reports consolidate news and social media for timely crisis management by governments and enterprises.While large language models(LLMs)enable automated report generation,this specific domain lacks formal task definitions and corresponding benchmarks.To bridge this gap,we define the Automated Online Public Opinion Report Generation(OPOR-Gen)task and construct OPOR-Bench,an event-centric dataset with 463 crisis events across 108 countries(comprising 8.8 K news articles and 185 K tweets).To evaluate report quality,we propose OPOR-Eval,a novel agent-based framework that simulates human expert evaluation.Validation experiments show OPOR-Eval achieves a high Spearman’s correlation(ρ=0.70)with human judgments,though challenges in temporal reasoning persist.This work establishes an initial foundation for advancing automated public opinion reporting research.

文摘The malicious dissemination of hate speech via compromised accounts,automated bot networks and malware-driven social media campaigns has become a growing cybersecurity concern.Automatically detecting such content in Spanish is challenging due to linguistic complexity and the scarcity of annotated resources.In this paper,we compare two predominant AI-based approaches for the forensic detection of malicious hate speech:(1)finetuning encoder-only models that have been trained in Spanish and(2)In-Context Learning techniques(Zero-and Few-Shot Learning)with large-scale language models.Our approach goes beyond binary classification,proposing a comprehensive,multidimensional evaluation that labels each text by:(1)type of speech,(2)recipient,(3)level of intensity(ordinal)and(4)targeted group(multi-label).Performance is evaluated using an annotated Spanish corpus,standard metrics such as precision,recall and F1-score and stability-oriented metrics to evaluate the stability of the transition from zero-shot to few-shot prompting(Zero-to-Few Shot Retention and Zero-to-Few Shot Gain)are applied.The results indicate that fine-tuned encoder-only models(notably MarIA and BETO variants)consistently deliver the strongest and most reliable performance:in our experiments their macro F1-scores lie roughly in the range of approximately 46%–66%depending on the task.Zero-shot approaches are much less stable and typically yield substantially lower performance(observed F1-scores range approximately 0%–39%),often producing invalid outputs in practice.Few-shot prompting(e.g.,Qwen 38B,Mistral 7B)generally improves stability and recall relative to pure zero-shot,bringing F1-scores into a moderate range of approximately 20%–51%but still falling short of fully fine-tuned models.These findings highlight the importance of supervised adaptation and discuss the potential of both paradigms as components in AI-powered cybersecurity and malware forensics systems designed to identify and mitigate coordinated online hate campaigns.
文摘Conversational recommender systems(CRSs)focus on refining preferences and providing personalized recommendations through natural language interactions and dialogue history.Large language models(LLMs)have shown outstanding performance across various domains,thereby prompting researchers to investigate their applicability in recommendation systems.However,due to the lack of task-specific knowledge and an inefficient feature extraction process,LLMs still have suboptimal performance in recommendation tasks.Therefore,external knowledge sources,such as knowledge graphs(KGs)and knowledge bases(KBs),are often introduced to address the issue of data sparsity.Compared to KGs,KBs possess higher retrieval efficiency,making them more suitable for scenarios where LLMs serve as recommenders.To this end,we introduce a novel framework integrating LLMs with KBs for enhanced retrieval generation,namely LLMKB.LLMKB initially leverages structured knowledge to create mapping dictionaries,extracting entity-relation information from heterogeneous knowledge to construct KBs.Then,LLMKB achieves the embedding calibration between user information representations and documents in KBs through retrieval model fine-tuning.Finally,LLMKB employs retrievalaugmented generation to produce recommendations based on fused text inputs,followed by post-processing.Experiment results on two public CRS datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our framework.Our code is publicly available at the link:https://anonymous.4open.science/r/LLMKB-6FD0.

文摘The unified modeling language(UML) is one of the most commonly used modeling languages in the software industry.It simplifies the complex process of design by providing a set of graphical notations,which helps express the objectoriented analysis and design of software projects.Although UML is applicable to different types of systems,domains,methods,and processes,it cannot express certain problem domain needs.Therefore,many extensions to UML have been proposed.In this paper,we propose a framework for integrating the UML extensions and then use the framework to propose an integrated unified modeling language-graphical(iUML-g) form.iUML-g integrates the existing UML extensions into one integrated form.This includes an integrated diagram for UML class,sequence,and use case diagrams.The proposed approach is evaluated using a case study.The proposed iUML-g is capable of modeling systems that use different domains.

文摘Cyber physical systems (CPSs) can be found nowadays in various fields of activity. The increased interest for these systems as evidenced by the large number of applications led to complex research regarding the most suitable methods for design and development. A promising solution for specification, visualization, and documentation of CPSs uses the Object Management Group (OMG) unified modeling language (UML). UML models allow an intuitive approach for embedded systems design, helping end-users to specify the requirements. However, the UML models are represented in an informal language. Therefore, it is difficult to verify the correctness and completeness of a system design. The object constraint language (OCL) was defined to add constraints to UML, but it is deficient in strict notations of mathematics and logic that permits rigorous analysis and reasoning about the specifications. In this paper, we investigated how CPS applications modeled using UML deployment diagrams could be formally expressed and verified. We used Z language constructs and prototype verification system (PVS) as formal verification tools. Considering some relevant case studies presented in the literature, we investigated the opportunity of using this approach for validation of static properties in CPS UML models.

文摘Architecture framework has become an effective method recently to describe the system of systems(SoS)architecture,such as the United States(US)Department of Defense Architecture Framework Version 2.0(DoDAF2.0).As a viewpoint in DoDAF2.0,the operational viewpoint(OV)describes operational activities,nodes,and resource flows.The OV models are important for SoS architecture development.However,as the SoS complexity increases,constructing OV models with traditional methods exposes shortcomings,such as inefficient data collection and low modeling standards.Therefore,we propose an intelligent modeling method for five OV models,including operational resource flow OV-2,organizational relationships OV-4,operational activity hierarchy OV-5a,operational activities model OV-5b,and operational activity sequences OV-6c.The main idea of the method is to extract OV architecture data from text and generate interoperable OV models.First,we construct the OV meta model based on the DoDAF2.0 meta model(DM2).Second,OV architecture named entities is recognized from text based on the bidirectional long short-term memory and conditional random field(BiLSTM-CRF)model.And OV architecture relationships are collected with relationship extraction rules.Finally,we define the generation rules for OV models and develop an OV modeling tool.We use unmanned surface vehicles(USV)swarm target defense SoS architecture as a case to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the intelligent modeling method.

文摘A language model for information retrieval is built by using a query language model to generate queries and a document language model to generate documents. The documents are ranked according to the relative entropies of estimated document language models with respect to the estimated query language model. Two popular and relatively efficient smoothing methods, the Jelinek- Mercer method and the absolute discounting method, are used to smooth the document language model in estimation of the document language, A combined model composed of the feedback document language model and the collection language model is used to estimate the query model. A performacne comparison between the new retrieval method and the existing method with feedback is made, and the retrieval performances of the proposed method with the two different smoothing techniques are evaluated on three Text Retrieval Conference (TREC) data sets. Experimental results show that the method is effective and performs better than the basic language modeling approach; moreover, the method using the Jelinek-Mercer technique performs better than that using the absolute discounting technique, and the perfomance is sensitive to the smoothing peramters.
