THGFM: Dual-Branch Temporal Heterogeneous Graph Fusion Model

Temporal heterogeneous graphs offer a natural abstraction for dynamic relational systems in which diverse node and relation types co-exist and evolve over time. Learning on such graphs requires jointly modeling cross-type structural heterogeneity and the temporal dynamics of interactions, yet existing methods still struggle to reconcile parameter-efficient cross-type transfer with relation-aware specialization, and typically inject time only as additive features outside the attention kernel. We propose \textbf{THGFM}, a web-scale temporal heterogeneous graph fusion model that addresses both limitations within a unified dual-path architecture. THGFM couples a \textit{Shared-Space Temporal Attention} branch for parameter-efficient cross-type transfer with a \textit{Relational Type-Partitioned Temporal Attention} branch for relation-aware specialization, and integrates them through \textit{Dual-Path Relational--Shared Fusion}, instantiated with \textit{Type-Conditioned Non-Competitive Gated Sum Fusion}: a adaptive mechanism that assigns independent, type-conditioned feature-wise gates to the shared and specialized branches, allowing both to be amplified or suppressed without zero-sum competition. To directly incorporate relative time into the attention score, THGFM further introduces \textit{Rotary Temporal Attention}, which rotates queries and keys by half-phases of relative time before matching. THGFM consistently outperforms baseline graph transformer models on academic graphs benchmarks, delivering a $+3.25\%$ six-task mean gain, with peak relative gains of $+12.37\%$ on OAG-CS PV, $+4.87\%$ on PF-$L_2$, and $+1.18\%$ on PF-$L_1$, and $+4.24\%$, $+3.73\%$, and $+4.61\%$ on OGBN-MAG, HTAG-ArXiv, and HTAG-DBLP, respectively.

TELLER: Dual-Path Iterative Preference Optimization for Table Entity Linking

Entity linking in tables matches short and ambiguous cell mentions to their corresponding knowledge-base entities. Existing approaches typically rely on data preprocessing pipelines that retain either compact or extensive table content as contextual evidence, and then formulate entity linking as a language generation task for instruction-tuned models; recent systems further incorporate explicit reasoning to disambiguate challenging mentions. However, their training supervision is usually static: fixed preference data cannot adapt to the residual errors of an evolving model, while variations in reasoning length can bias sequence-level preference learning. To address these limitations, we present TELLER: Table Entity Linking through Learning from Errors and Reasoning. We first retrieve and rank Wikidata candidates and retain reduced table evidence in the prompt. The direct-answer path applies iterative direct preference optimization and refreshes its preference data with residual errors from the updated model. The reasoning path uses filtered and compressed chain-of-thought rationales for supervised fine-tuning, followed by our iterative length-normalized regularized preference optimization. On the TableInstruct entity-linking subset, the direct-answer path improves accuracy from 94.35\% to 94.50\%; on the MammoTab V2 evaluation set, it improves accuracy from 87.59\% to 88.20\%. The reasoning path improves accuracy from 92.90\% to 92.95\% on TableInstruct and from 79.09\% to 81.85\% on MammoTab V2, while maintaining high rates of complete reasoning generation. These results show that iterative preference learning benefits both concise entity prediction and explicit reasoning.

Axis-Aligned Semantics for ODRL: Resolving Dimensional Ambiguity in Policy Constraints

The Open Digital Rights Language (ODRL) represents policy constraints as triples of a left operand, an operator, and a value. Several spatial operands, however, range over multi-axis domains such as width, height, and depth, while the constraint syntax provides no explicit axis identity. As a result, policy engines cannot determine whether multiple constraints apply to the same axis or different ones, making conflict detection unsound or incomplete. We resolve this ambiguity by axis decomposition, replacing multi-axis operands with axis-specific scalar operands over totally ordered domains. Each constraint then denotes an interval per axis and each policy an axis-aligned box, reducing conflict detection to box comparison. We define a three-valued semantics (Conflict, Compatible, Unknown), prove the decomposition sound and backward compatible with ODRL, instantiate it as ODRL Axis-Aligned Profile (OAAP), and validate it on a benchmark of 256 ODRL policy problems, each expressed in Turtle and compiled to first-order (TPTP) and SMT-LIB form, using Vampire, E, Z3, and cvc5.

Denotational Semantics for ODRL: Knowledge-Based Constraint Conflict Detection

ODRL's six set-based operators -- isA, isPartOf, hasPart, isAnyOf, isAllOf, isNoneOf -- depend on external domain knowledge that the W3C specification leaves unspecified. Without it, every cross-dataspace policy comparison defaults to Unknown. We present a denotational semantics that maps each ODRL constraint to the set of knowledge-base concepts satisfying it. Conflict detection reduces to denotation intersection under a three-valued verdict -- Conflict, Compatible, or Unknown -- that is sound under incomplete knowledge. The framework covers all three ODRL composition modes (and, or, xone) and all three semantic domains arising in practice: taxonomic (class subsumption), mereological (part-whole containment), and nominal (identity). For cross-dataspace interoperability, we define order-preserving alignments between knowledge bases and prove two guarantees: conflicts are preserved across different KB standards, and unmapped concepts degrade gracefully to Unknown -- never to false conflicts. A runtime soundness theorem ensures that design-time verdicts hold for all execution contexts. The encoding stays within the decidable EPR fragment of first-order logic. We validate it with 154 benchmarks across six knowledge base families (GeoNames, ISO 3166, W3C DPV, a GDPR-derived taxonomy, BCP 47, and ISO 639-3) and four structural KBs targeting adversarial edge cases. Both the Vampire theorem prover and the Z3 SMT solver agree on all 154 verdicts. A key finding is that exclusive composition (xone) requires strictly stronger KB axioms than conjunction or disjunction: open-world semantics blocks exclusivity even when positive evidence appears to satisfy exactly one branch.

S0-No-More: A Z-Wave NonceGet Denial of Service Attack utilizing included but offline NodeIDs

In this paper a vulnerability in the Z-Wave protocol specification, especially in the S0 Z-Wave protocol is presented. Devices supporting this standard can be blocked (denial of service) through continuous S0 NonceGet requests. This way a whole network can be blocked if the attacked devices are Z-Wave network controller. This also effects S2 network controller as long as they support S0 NonceGet requests. As only a minimal amount of nonce requests (1 per ~2 seconds) is required to conduct the attack it cannot be prevented by standard countermeasures against jamming.
