Cognitive Graph Intelligence for Adaptive and Robust DDoS Attack Detection in Next Generation Networks

Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attacks threaten network availability, requiring a cognitive detection process that senses traffic, infers intent, and supports an adaptive response under severe class imbalance and non-stationary conditions. This paper proposes a Graph-based Generative Adversarial Network (GraphGAN) that serves as the cognitive detection engine for this task. GraphGAN captures the relational structure among traffic flows while addressing imbalance through adversarial generation of synthetic samples. Sequential flows are converted into $k$-nearest neighbor graphs using sliding windows to preserve feature-similarity and temporal dependencies among flows. The generator learns the distribution of DDoS attacks to synthesize realistic minority samples, while a Graph Convolutional Network (GCN)-based discriminator distinguishes real from synthetic graph data. A separate GCN classifier, trained on the balanced dataset, performs the final detection decision. Evaluations on four benchmark datasets show that GraphGAN achieves superior accuracy, precision, and recall compared to state-of-the-art approaches, particularly in data-scarce scenarios. By integrating temporal graph construction, adversarial augmentation, and GCN classification, GraphGAN effectively models coordinated attack behaviors and mitigates class imbalance, providing a robust and topology-aware solution for intrusion detection in data-constrained environments.

GraphBit: A Graph-based Agentic Framework for Non-Linear Agent Orchestration

Agentic LLM frameworks that rely on prompted orchestration, where the model itself determines workflow transitions, often suffer from hallucinated routing, infinite loops, and non-reproducible execution. We introduce GraphBit, an engine-orchestrated framework that defines workflows explicitly and deterministically as a directed acyclic graph (DAG). Unlike prompted orchestration, agents in GraphBit operate as typed functions, while a Rust-based engine governs routing, state transitions, and tool invocation, ensuring reproducibility and auditability. The engine supports parallel branch execution, conditional control flow over structured state predicates, and configurable error recovery. A three-tier memory architecture consisting of ephemeral scratch space, structured state, and external connectors isolates context across stages, preventing cascading context bloat that degrades reasoning in long-running pipelines. Across GAIA benchmark tasks spanning zero-tool, document-augmented, and web-enabled workflows, GraphBit outperforms six existing frameworks, achieving the highest accuracy (67.6 percent), zero framework-induced hallucinations, the lowest latency (11.9 ms overhead), and the highest throughput. Ablation studies demonstrate that each memory tier contributes measurably to performance, with deterministic execution providing the greatest gains on tool-intensive tasks representative of real-world deployments.

A Transformer-in-Transformer Network Utilizing Knowledge Distillation for Image Recognition

This paper presents a novel knowledge distillation neural architecture leveraging efficient transformer networks for effective image classification. Natural images display intricate arrangements encompassing numerous extraneous elements. Vision transformers utilize localized patches to compute attention. However, exclusive dependence on patch segmentation proves inadequate in sufficiently encompassing the comprehensive nature of the image. To address this issue, we have proposed an inner-outer transformer-based architecture, which gives attention to the global and local aspects of the image. Moreover, The training of transformer models poses significant challenges due to their demanding resource, time, and data requirements. To tackle this, we integrate knowledge distillation into the architecture, enabling efficient learning. Leveraging insights from a larger teacher model, our approach enhances learning efficiency and effectiveness. Significantly, the transformer-in-transformer network acquires lightweight characteristics by means of distillation conducted within the feature extraction layer. Our featured network's robustness is established through substantial experimentation on the MNIST, CIFAR10, and CIFAR100 datasets, demonstrating commendable top-1 and top-5 accuracy. The conducted ablative analysis comprehensively validates the effectiveness of the chosen parameters and settings, showcasing their superiority against contemporary methodologies. Remarkably, the proposed Transformer-in-Transformer Network (TITN) model achieves impressive performance milestones across various datasets: securing the highest top-1 accuracy of 74.71% and a top-5 accuracy of 92.28% for the CIFAR100 dataset, attaining an unparalleled top-1 accuracy of 92.03% and top-5 accuracy of 99.80% for the CIFAR-10 dataset, and registering an exceptional top-1 accuracy of 99.56% for the MNIST dataset.

Single Image Internal Distribution Measurement Using Non-Local Variational Autoencoder

Deep learning-based super-resolution methods have shown great promise, especially for single image super-resolution (SISR) tasks. Despite the performance gain, these methods are limited due to their reliance on copious data for model training. In addition, supervised SISR solutions rely on local neighbourhood information focusing only on the feature learning processes for the reconstruction of low-dimensional images. Moreover, they fail to capitalize on global context due to their constrained receptive field. To combat these challenges, this paper proposes a novel image-specific solution, namely non-local variational autoencoder (\texttt{NLVAE}), to reconstruct a high-resolution (HR) image from a single low-resolution (LR) image without the need for any prior training. To harvest maximum details for various receptive regions and high-quality synthetic images, \texttt{NLVAE} is introduced as a self-supervised strategy that reconstructs high-resolution images using disentangled information from the non-local neighbourhood. Experimental results from seven benchmark datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of the \texttt{NLVAE} model. Moreover, our proposed model outperforms a number of baseline and state-of-the-art methods as confirmed through extensive qualitative and quantitative evaluations.
