Named Entity Recognition (NER) is a key application in the field of Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language Processing, which automatically identifies and categorizes entities in text by intelligent algorithms. In NER, all spans of a sentence can be organized into a two-dimensional representation. The semantic plane has the advantage to represent the semantic structure of a sentence and to learn the interaction between spans. One of an important phenomenon of this representation is that neighboring elements of the semantic plane are spans denoted to overlapped subsequences in a sentence. Because they share the same contextual features and semantic dependencies, it is difficult to distinguish true entities from the backgrounds. Therefore, refining span representations and building the semantic dependency between spans is helpful for the entity recognition task. In this paper, we propose an Edge Sharpening and Covariance Attention (ES&CA) model to support recognizing named entities from the semantic plane representation. The edge sharpening (ES) module adopts a differential convolution to sharpen the semantic gradients in the semantic plane, which has the ability to gather semantic information from neighborhoods. In the covariance attention (CA) module, the covariance between spans are applied to weight the attention of spans relevant to task-relevant learning objective. Establishing semantic relationships across spans is a highly successful approach. The ES&CA model is assessed on five public datasets for nested and flattened named entity recognition. The evaluation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our strategy in distinguishing entity spans from the backgrounds, hence significantly enhancing the final performance. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) possess high mobility and flexible deployment capabilities, prompting the development of UAVs for various application scenarios within the Internet of Things (IoT). The unique capabilities of UAVs give rise to increasingly critical and complex tasks in uncertain and potentially harsh environments. The substantial amount of data generated from these applications necessitates processing and analysis through deep neural networks (DNNs). However, UAVs encounter challenges due to their limited computing resources when managing DNN models. This paper presents a joint approach that combines multiple-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) and generative diffusion models (GDM) for assigning DNN tasks to a UAV swarm, aimed at reducing latency from task capture to result output. To address these challenges, we first consider the task size of the target area to be inspected and the shortest flying path as optimization constraints, employing a greedy algorithm to resolve the subproblem with a focus on minimizing the UAV’s flying path and the overall system cost. In the second stage, we introduce a novel DNN task assignment algorithm, termed GDM-MADDPG, which utilizes the reverse denoising process of GDM to replace the actor network in multi-agent deep deterministic policy gradient (MADDPG). This approach generates specific DNN task assignment actions based on agents’ observations in a dynamic environment. Simulation results indicate that our algorithm performs favorably compared to benchmarks in terms of path planning, Age of Information (AoI), energy consumption, and task load balancing.

The widespread use of deep neural networks (DNNs) in image classification sofwares underlines the importance of the robustness. Researchers have proposed sparse adversarial attack methods for generating test cases, which add pixel-level perturbations to construct the test case to mislead the target model. However, the existing methods have certain limitations, such as high time cost, poor flexibility, and poor quality of the test cases. To address these issues, we propose a gradient-guided test case generation method (GGTM) to evaluate the robustness of image classification software. The method firstly identifies the key region in the image based on the gradient-weighted class activation mapping (Grad-CAM) and the prediction confidence of the target model on the input image. In the key region, it selects a set of pixels as candidate perturbation pixels according to the gradient value and the change of loss function. Then perturbations are added to the candidate perturbation pixels after applying a random dropout strategy to reduce some candidate perturbation pixels which is used to avoid local optimum. For the initially constructed test case which can mislead the target model, after removing redundant and unimportant perturbations, perturbations are re-added to optimize the test case. Experiments show the effectiveness of GGTM, which achieves 100% attack success rate. And the test cases generated by GGTM have the best perturbation sparsity. Furthermore, compared with the baseline method SparseAG which achieves optimal perturbation sparsity among the baseline methods, GGTM significantly improves the efficiency.

With the growing prevalence of deep learning in the speech area, speech recognition, voice control, and related applications have become integral parts of people's lives. However, the rise of malicious third-party platforms has introduced significant security concerns, particularly through backdoor attacks. These attacks implant triggers that manipulate speech recognition models to produce specific labels, thereby compromising the system's integrity. Studying speech backdoor attacks is crucial for evaluating the security of speech recognition software, and iden-tifying and addressing potential vulnerabilities. Existing methods for speech backdoor attacks usually employ fixed perturbations as triggers. However, these perturbations may be discernible to the human ear, making them easily detectable. To address this issue, we propose a frequency domain-embedded backdoor attack method based on echo hiding. Echo hiding is a steganography technique based on audio. This method embeds hidden information into the frequency spectrum of the echo signal, leveraging the masking property of the human auditory system. It is difficult to arouse suspicion or detect the presence of hidden information since echo is perceived as a natural phenomenon in auditory perception. Furthermore, it does not cause a significant decrease in audio quality. Experimental results show the effectiveness of our method in different settings.

This paper presents an interactive motion control method based on reinforcement learning, designed to assist children with autism who have social motor impairments through a mirror game intervention. The virtual teacher uses the Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG) algorithm to optimize its actions, guiding the participant to follow a Lissajous trajectory. To ensure safety, a motion-correction mechanism was developed, which automatically adjusts actions when the predicted trajectory surpasses predefined safety boundaries. The reward function considers both the distance between the virtual teacher and the target trajectory, as well as the distance between the virtual teacher and the participant, with dynamic adjustments applied by the motion-correction mechanism. Experimental results demonstrate that the virtual teacher effectively guides the participant towards the target trajectory while adhering to safety constraints. © 2025 IEEE.

ABXI: Invariant Interest Adaptation for Task-Guided Cross-Domain Sequential Recommendation

Cross-Domain Sequential Recommendation (CDSR) has recently gained attention for countering data sparsity by transferring knowledge across domains. A common approach merges domain-specific sequences into cross-domain sequences, serving as bridges to connect domains. One key challenge is to correctly extract the shared knowledge among these sequences and appropriately transfer it. Most existing works directly transfer unfiltered cross-domain knowledge rather than extracting domain-invariant components and adaptively integrating them into domain-specific modelings. Another challenge lies in aligning the domain-specific and cross-domain sequences. Existing methods align these sequences based on timestamps, but this approach can cause prediction mismatches when the current tokens and their targets belong to different domains. In such cases, the domain-specific knowledge carried by the current tokens may degrade performance. To address these challenges, we propose the A-B-Cross-to-Invariant Learning Recommender (ABXI). Specifically, leveraging LoRA’s effectiveness for efficient adaptation, ABXI incorporates two types of LoRAs to facilitate knowledge adaptation. First, all sequences are processed through a shared encoder that employs a domain LoRA for each sequence, thereby preserving unique domain characteristics. Next, we introduce an invariant projector that extracts domain-invariant interests from cross-domain representations, utilizing an invariant LoRA to adapt these interests into modeling each specific domain. Besides, to avoid prediction mismatches, all domain-specific sequences are aligned to match the domains of the cross-domain ground truths. Experimental results on three datasets demonstrate that our approach outperforms other CDSR counterparts by a large margin. The codes are available in https://***/DiMarzioBian/ABXI. © 2025, CC BY.

Scribble-supervised semantic segmentation presents a cost-effective training method that utilizes annotations generated through scribbling. It is valued in attaining high performance while minimizing annotation costs, which has made it highly regarded among researchers. Scribble supervision propagates information from labeled pixels to the surrounding unlabeled pixels, enabling semantic segmentation for the entire image. However, existing methods often ignore the features of classified pixels during feature propagation. To address these limitations, this paper proposes a prototype-based feature augmentation method that leverages feature prototypes to augment scribble supervision. Experimental results demonstrate that our approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on the PASCAL VOC 2012 dataset in scribble-supervised semantic segmentation tasks. The code is available at https://***/TranquilChan/PFA.

SMT solvers check the satisfiability of logic formulas over first-order theories, which have been utilized in a rich number of critical applications, such as software verification, test case generation, and program synthesis. Bugs hidden in SMT solvers would severely mislead those applications and further cause severe consequences. Therefore, ensuring the reliability and robustness of SMT solvers is of critical importance. Although many approaches have been proposed to test SMT solvers, it is still a challenge to discover bugs effectively. To tackle such a challenge, we conduct an empirical study on the historical bug-triggering formulas in SMT solvers' bug tracking systems. We observe that the historical bug-triggering formulas contain valuable skeletons (i.e., core structures of formulas) as well as associated atomic formulas which can cast significant impacts on formulas' ability in triggering bugs. Therefore, we propose a novel approach that utilizes the skeletons extracted from the historical bug-triggering formulas and enumerates atomic formulas under the guidance of association rules derived from historical formulas. In this study, we realized our approach as a practical fuzzing tool HistFuzz and conducted extensive testing on the well-known SMT solvers Z3 and cvc5. To date, HistFuzz has found 111 confirmed new bugs for Z3 and cvc5, of which 108 have been fixed by the developers. More notably, out of the confirmed bugs, 23 are soundness bugs and invalid model bugs found in the solvers' default mode, which are essential for SMT solvers. In addition, our experiments also demonstrate that HistFuzz outperforms the state-of-the-art SMT solver fuzzers in terms of achieved code coverage and effectiveness.

The automatic detection of skin diseases via dermoscopic images can improve the efficiency in diagnosis and help doctors make more accurate judgments. However, conventional skin disease recognition systems may produce high confidence for out-of-distribution (OOD) data, which may become a major security vulnerability in practical applications. In this paper, we propose a multi-scale detection framework to detect out-of-distribution skin disease image data to ensure the robustness of the system. Our framework extracts features from different layers of the neural network. In the early layers, rectified activation is used to make the output features closer to the well-behaved distribution, and then an one-class SVM is trained to detect OOD data;in the penultimate layer, an adapted Gram matrix is used to calculate the features after rectified activation, and finally the layer with the best performance is chosen to compute a normality score. Experiments show that the proposed framework achieves superior performance when compared with other state-of-the-art methods in the task of skin disease recognition. © 2023, The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

USB interfaces have become ubiquitous in various Internet of Things (IoT) devices, all adhering to the same USB protocol. While enhancing convenience, they also widen the potential attack surface. Fuzzing is a proactive way to identify potential security threats for USB drivers. However, existing USB driver fuzzers primarily prioritize the code coverage of USB drivers, leading to a significant waste of computational resources on irrelevant code segments. To this end, we combine directed fuzzing and USB driver fuzzing for the first time, and present MODFuzz, a pioneering multi-objective directed fuzzing method for USB drivers. MODFuzz autonomously locates the most vulnerable parts within USB drivers, concentrating fuzzing efforts on these areas. Diverging from the existing directed fuzzers, MODFuzz employs a dynamic direction instead of predetermined addresses to guide the fuzzing campaign toward the triggered execution traces with a greater probability of containing vulnerabilities. MODFuzz outperforms the strong baseline in terms of execution speed (about 14% improvement) and crash generation capabilities (about 69% improvement). Meanwhile, we found six previously unknown bugs (all confirmed and assigned vulnerability IDs) in Linux kernel v6.4.10 and received acknowledgment from Red Hat. © 2025 IEEE.
