Research on Parameter-Efficient Knowledge Graph Completion Methods and Their Performance in the Cybersecurity Field by Bin Chen, Hongyi Li, Ze Shi

“…Additionally, we propose a path-enhanced cosine similarity measurement method to measure the similarity between entities, and a graph attention network is employed to iteratively update the embeddings of entities and relations, capturing key information in the graph-structured data. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed GCCKG model significantly improves evaluation values such as MRR and Hits@K in knowledge graph completion tasks on several general domain knowledge graphs, including FB15K, WN18, FB15K-237, as well as the cyberthreat intelligence knowledge graph CS13K, while also significantly reducing the model’s parameter size. …”

Log-Driven Behavior Discrimination of Process Robots Using Entropy Similarity by Lu Li, Huan Fang

“…In order to differentiate similar but different process robots, in this paper we propose an approach to process robot behavior discrimination, from the perspective that only event logs are given as known, that is, the reference models of process models are kept unknown. The biggest innovation lies in that the proposed behavior discrimination method is based on log-entropy similarity measurement using probability distributions and statistical distance theory. …”
