In heterogeneous catalysis, where data on catalytic materials, reaction conditions, mechanisms, and synthesis routes are dispersed across diverse sources, KGs provide a semantic framework that supports data integration under the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) principles. This review aims to survey recent developments in catalysis KGs, describe the main techniques for graph construction, and highlight how artificial intelligence, particularly large language models (LLMs), enhances graph generation and query. We conducted a systematic analysis of the literature, focusing on ontology-guided text mining pipelines, graph population methods, and maintenance strategies. Our review identifies key trends: ontology-based approaches enable the automated extraction of domain knowledge, LLM-driven retrieval-augmented generation supports natural-language queries, and scalable graph architectures range from a few thousand to over a million triples. We discuss state-of-the-art applications, such as catalyst recommendation systems and reaction mechanism discovery tools, and examine the major challenges, including data heterogeneity, ontology alignment, and long-term graph curation. We conclude that KGs, when combined with AI methods, hold significant promise for accelerating catalyst discovery and knowledge management, but progress depends on establishing community standards for ontology development and maintenance. This review provides a roadmap for researchers seeking to leverage KGs to advance heterogeneous catalysis research.展开更多

Effective defect prediction enables testers to accurately prioritize testing efforts and enhance defect detection efficiency. Additionally, this technology provides developers with a means to quickly identify errors, thereby improving software robustness and overall quality. However, current research in software defect prediction often faces challenges, such as relying on a single data source or failing to adequately account for the characteristics of multiple coexisting data sources. This approach may overlook the differences and potential value of various data sources, affecting the accuracy and generalization performance of prediction results. To address this issue, this study proposes a multivariate heterogeneous hybrid deep learning algorithm for defect prediction (DP-MHHDL). Initially, Abstract Syntax Tree (AST), Code Dependency Network (CDN), and code static quality metrics are extracted from source code files and used as inputs to ensure data diversity. Subsequently, for the three types of heterogeneous data, the study employs a graph convolutional network optimization model based on adjacency and spatial topologies, a Convolutional Neural Network-Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-BiLSTM) hybrid neural network model, and a TabNet model to extract data features. These features are then concatenated and processed through a fully connected neural network for defect prediction. Finally, the proposed framework is evaluated using ten promise defect repository projects, and performance is assessed with three metrics: F1, Area under the curve (AUC), and Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC). The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms existing methods, offering a novel solution for software defect prediction.展开更多

摘要The power Internet of Things(IoT)is a significant trend in technology and a requirement for national strategic development.With the deepening digital transformation of the power grid,China’s power system has initially built a power IoT architecture comprising a perception,network,and platform application layer.However,owing to the structural complexity of the power system,the construction of the power IoT continues to face problems such as complex access management of massive heterogeneous equipment,diverse IoT protocol access methods,high concurrency of network communications,and weak data security protection.To address these issues,this study optimizes the existing architecture of the power IoT and designs an integrated management framework for the access of multi-source heterogeneous data in the power IoT,comprising cloud,pipe,edge,and terminal parts.It further reviews and analyzes the key technologies involved in the power IoT,such as the unified management of the physical model,high concurrent access,multi-protocol access,multi-source heterogeneous data storage management,and data security control,to provide a more flexible,efficient,secure,and easy-to-use solution for multi-source heterogeneous data access in the power IoT.

摘要Computational approaches for predicting drug-target interactions(DTIs)are pivotal in advancing drug discovery.Current methodologies leveraging heterogeneous networks often fall short in fully integrating both local and global network information.To comprehensively consider network information,we propose DHGT-DTI,a novel deep learning-based approach for DTI prediction.Specifically,we capture the local and global structural information of the network from both neighborhood and meta-path per-spectives.In the neighborhood perspective,we employ a heterogeneous graph neural network(HGNN),which extends Graph Sample and Aggregate(GraphSAGE)to handle diverse node and edge types,effectively learning local network structures.In the meta-path perspective,we introduce a Graph Transformer with residual connections to model higher-order relationships defined by meta-paths,such as"drug-disease-drug",and use an attention mechanism to fuse information across multiple meta-paths.The learned features from these dual perspectives are synergistically integrated for DTI prediction via a matrix decomposition method.Furthermore,DHGT-DTI reconstructs not only the DTI network but also auxiliary networks to bolster prediction accuracy.Comprehensive experiments on two benchmark datasets validate the superiority of DHGT-DTI over existing baseline methods.Additionally,case studies on six drugs used to treat Parkinson's disease not only validate the practical utility of DHGT-DTI but also highlight its broader potential in accelerating drug discovery for other diseases.

摘要Knowledge graphs (KGs) offer a structured, machine-readable format for organizing complex information. In heterogeneous catalysis, where data on catalytic materials, reaction conditions, mechanisms, and synthesis routes are dispersed across diverse sources, KGs provide a semantic framework that supports data integration under the FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) principles. This review aims to survey recent developments in catalysis KGs, describe the main techniques for graph construction, and highlight how artificial intelligence, particularly large language models (LLMs), enhances graph generation and query. We conducted a systematic analysis of the literature, focusing on ontology-guided text mining pipelines, graph population methods, and maintenance strategies. Our review identifies key trends: ontology-based approaches enable the automated extraction of domain knowledge, LLM-driven retrieval-augmented generation supports natural-language queries, and scalable graph architectures range from a few thousand to over a million triples. We discuss state-of-the-art applications, such as catalyst recommendation systems and reaction mechanism discovery tools, and examine the major challenges, including data heterogeneity, ontology alignment, and long-term graph curation. We conclude that KGs, when combined with AI methods, hold significant promise for accelerating catalyst discovery and knowledge management, but progress depends on establishing community standards for ontology development and maintenance. This review provides a roadmap for researchers seeking to leverage KGs to advance heterogeneous catalysis research.

摘要Dear Editor,This letter studies output consensus problem of heterogeneous linear multiagent systems over directed graphs. A novel adaptive dynamic event-triggered controller is presented based only on the feedback combination of the agent's own state and neighbors' output,which can achieve exponential output consensus through intermittent communication. The controller is obtained by solving two linear matrix equations, and Zeno behavior is excluded.

摘要The continuous improvement of the cyber threat intelligence sharing mechanism provides new ideas to deal with Advanced Persistent Threats(APT).Extracting attack behaviors,i.e.,Tactics,Techniques,Procedures(TTP)from Cyber Threat Intelligence(CTI)can facilitate APT actors’profiling for an immediate response.However,it is difficult for traditional manual methods to analyze attack behaviors from cyber threat intelligence due to its heterogeneous nature.Based on the Adversarial Tactics,Techniques and Common Knowledge(ATT&CK)of threat behavior description,this paper proposes a threat behavioral knowledge extraction framework that integrates Heterogeneous Text Network(HTN)and Graph Convolutional Network(GCN)to solve this issue.It leverages the hierarchical correlation relationships of attack techniques and tactics in the ATT&CK to construct a text network of heterogeneous cyber threat intelligence.With the help of the Bidirectional EncoderRepresentation fromTransformers(BERT)pretraining model to analyze the contextual semantics of cyber threat intelligence,the task of threat behavior identification is transformed into a text classification task,which automatically extracts attack behavior in CTI,then identifies the malware and advanced threat actors.The experimental results show that F1 achieve 94.86%and 92.15%for the multi-label classification tasks of tactics and techniques.Extend the experiment to verify the method’s effectiveness in identifying the malware and threat actors in APT attacks.The F1 for malware and advanced threat actors identification task reached 98.45%and 99.48%,which are better than the benchmark model in the experiment and achieve state of the art.The model can effectivelymodel threat intelligence text data and acquire knowledge and experience migration by correlating implied features with a priori knowledge to compensate for insufficient sample data and improve the classification performance and recognition ability of threat behavior in text.
摘要The future network world will be embedded with different generations of wireless technologies,such as 3G,4G and 5G.At the same time,the development of new devices equipped with multiple interfaces is growing rapidly in recent years.As a consequence,the vertical handover protocol is developed in order to provide ubiquitous connectivity in the heterogeneous wireless environment.Indeed,by using this protocol,the users have opportunities to be connected to the Internet through a variety of wireless technologies at any time and anywhere.The main challenge of this protocol is how to select the best access network in terms of Quality of Service(QoS)for users.For that,many algorithms have been proposed and developed to deal with the issue in recent studies.However,all existing algorithms permit only the selection of one access network from the available networks during the vertical handover process.To cope with this problem,in this paper we propose a new approach based on k-partite graph.Firstly,we introduce k-partite graph theory to model the vertical handover problem.Secondly,the selection of the best path is performed by a robust and lightweight mechanism based on cost function and Dijkstra’s algorithm.The experimental results show that the proposed approach can achieve better performance of QoS than the existing algorithms for FTP traffic and video streaming.
摘要Software defect prediction plays a critical role in software development and quality assurance processes. Effective defect prediction enables testers to accurately prioritize testing efforts and enhance defect detection efficiency. Additionally, this technology provides developers with a means to quickly identify errors, thereby improving software robustness and overall quality. However, current research in software defect prediction often faces challenges, such as relying on a single data source or failing to adequately account for the characteristics of multiple coexisting data sources. This approach may overlook the differences and potential value of various data sources, affecting the accuracy and generalization performance of prediction results. To address this issue, this study proposes a multivariate heterogeneous hybrid deep learning algorithm for defect prediction (DP-MHHDL). Initially, Abstract Syntax Tree (AST), Code Dependency Network (CDN), and code static quality metrics are extracted from source code files and used as inputs to ensure data diversity. Subsequently, for the three types of heterogeneous data, the study employs a graph convolutional network optimization model based on adjacency and spatial topologies, a Convolutional Neural Network-Bidirectional Long Short-Term Memory (CNN-BiLSTM) hybrid neural network model, and a TabNet model to extract data features. These features are then concatenated and processed through a fully connected neural network for defect prediction. Finally, the proposed framework is evaluated using ten promise defect repository projects, and performance is assessed with three metrics: F1, Area under the curve (AUC), and Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC). The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms existing methods, offering a novel solution for software defect prediction.

摘要In the tobacco industry,insider employee attack is a thorny problem that is difficult to detect.To solve this issue,this paper proposes an insider threat detection method based on heterogeneous graph embedding.First,the interrelationships between logs are fully considered,and log entries are converted into heterogeneous graphs based on these relationships.Second,the heterogeneous graph embedding is adopted and each log entry is represented as a low-dimensional feature vector.Then,normal logs and malicious logs are classified into different clusters by clustering algorithm to identify malicious logs.Finally,the effectiveness and superiority of the method is verified through experiments on the CERT dataset.The experimental results show that this method has better performance compared to some baseline methods.

摘要Automatic text summarization(ATS)plays a significant role in Natural Language Processing(NLP).Abstractive summarization produces summaries by identifying and compressing the most important information in a document.However,there are only relatively several comprehensively evaluated abstractive summarization models that work well for specific types of reports due to their unstructured and oral language text characteristics.In particular,Chinese complaint reports,generated by urban complainers and collected by government employees,describe existing resident problems in daily life.Meanwhile,the reflected problems are required to respond speedily.Therefore,automatic summarization tasks for these reports have been developed.However,similar to traditional summarization models,the generated summaries still exist problems of informativeness and conciseness.To address these issues and generate suitably informative and less redundant summaries,a topic-based abstractive summarization method is proposed to obtain global and local features.Additionally,a heterogeneous graph of the original document is constructed using word-level and topic-level features.Experiments and analyses on public review datasets(Yelp and Amazon)and our constructed dataset(Chinese complaint reports)show that the proposed framework effectively improves the performance of the abstractive summarization model for Chinese complaint reports.

摘要Event relation extraction plays a crucial role in constructing an event knowledge graph.However,current models only extract trigger words as event ontology representations,and do not consider node type during information aggregation,resulting in low accuracy in event relation extraction.To address these challenges,we propose an event relation extraction model based on heterogeneous graph attention networks and event ontology direction induction.To enhance the completeness of event information,we incorporate argument role information,in addition to trigger words,into the input text.A novel heterogeneous graph attention framework is proposed to reasonably allocate weights to trigger words,argument roles,and text information,and then perform two levels of aggregation,node-level and semantic-level,in sequence.To improve the accuracy of event direction discrimination,we construct an event ontology subgraph that includes trigger words and arguments to aggregate complete event structure information during direction induction.Finally,we evaluate our model on three datasets,TimeBank-Dense,MATRES,and HiEve,and demonstrate that our model outperforms state-of-the-art models by 1.2%,0.5%,and 0.8%,respectively,in terms of the Micro-F1 score.Our proposed model provides a promising solution for event relation extraction and can be applied in various natural language processing applications.

摘要Heterogeneous graphs organize data with nodes and edges,and have been widely used in various graph-centric applications.Often,some data are omitted during manual construction,leading to data reduction and performance degeneration on downstream tasks.Existing methods recover the missing data based on the data already within a single graph,neglecting the fact that graphs from different sources share some common nodes due to scope overlap.In this paper,we concentrate on the missing data recovery task on multi-source heterogeneous graphs under the incremental scenario and design a novel framework to recover the missing data by fusing multi-source complementary data from previously appeared graphs.Our model,namely SIKE,is present with a pre-trained language model and graph-specific adapters.To take advantage of the complementary data of multi-source graphs,we propose an embedding-based data fusion method to gather data among graphs.To evaluate the proposed model,we build two new datasets consisting of multi-source heterogeneous graphs.The experimental results show that our model SIKE achieves significant improvements compared with competitive baseline models,demonstrating the effectiveness of our model and shedding light on multi-source data fusion for data governance.

摘要Heterogeneous graph neural networks(HGNN)can capture heterogeneous semantic information in heterogeneous networks,learn the low-dimensional embedding vectors,and use them for downstream tasks.The selection of meta-paths is always the focus of HGNN.Existing HGNN models often employ random selections of meta-paths or utilize all meta-paths with a fixed maximum number of hops,thereby overlooking significant heterogeneous semantic information of graphs and struggling to effectively leverage non-redundant information.To this end,a new Monte Carlo tree search-based heterogeneous graph neural network(MCTS-HGNN)model is developed to search for the appropriate set of meta-paths in heterogeneous graphs automatically,thus overcoming the difficulty of meta-path selection.Subsequently,the meta-path set is decomposed based on aggregation objects and independently applied to a subset of meta-paths by using a customized transformer-based semantic aggregation module,and then the diverse semantic information from meta-paths can be effectively utilized.Furthermore,the information from the meta-path subset is integrated by the graph-level transformer to achieve a comprehensive heterogeneous graph embedding.The learned embedding is evaluated via the downstream task of the heterogeneous graph.Finally,the ablation experiments validate the effectiveness of the module designed for the MCTS-HGNN.The experimental results demonstrate that the MCTS-HGNN outperforms state-of-the-art baselines across all evaluation metrics.

摘要Real-world complex networks are inherently heterogeneous;they have different types of nodes,attributes,and relationships.In recent years,various methods have been proposed to automatically learn how to encode the structural and semantic information contained in heterogeneous information networks(HINs)into low-dimensional embeddings;this task is called heterogeneous network embedding(HNE).Efficient HNE techniques can benefit various HIN-based machine learning tasks such as node classification,recommender systems,and information retrieval.Here,we provide a comprehensive survey of key advancements in the area of HNE.First,we define an encoder-decoder-based HNE model taxonomy.Then,we systematically overview,compare,and summarize various state-of-the-art HNE models and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of various model categories to identify more potentially competitive HNE frameworks.We also summarize the application fields,benchmark datasets,open source tools,andperformance evaluation in theHNEarea.Finally,wediscuss open issues and suggest promising future directions.We anticipate that this survey will provide deep insights into research in the field of HNE.
