Combined with satellite network, FL can overcome the geographical limitation and achieve broader applications. However, it also faces the issues such as straggler effect, unreliable network environments and non-independent and identically distributed (Non-IID) samples. To address these problems, we propose an intelligent hierarchical FL system based on semi-asynchronous and scheduled synchronous control strategies in cloud-edge-client structure for satellite network. Our intelligent system effectively handles multiple client requests by distributing the communication load of the central cloud to various edge clouds. Additionally, the cloud server selection algorithm and the edge-client semi-asynchronous control strategy minimize clients’ waiting time, improving the overall efficiency of the FL process. Furthermore, the center-edge scheduled synchronous control strategy ensures the timeliness of partial models. Based on the experiment results, our proposed intelligent hierarchical FL system demonstrates a distinct advantage in global accuracy over traditional FedAvg, achieving 2% higher global accuracy within the same time frame and reducing 52% training time to achieve the target accuracy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43684-025-00095-z.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143655326","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Heuristic algorithms are widely used in this field for their flexibility and compatibility with uncertain environments. This paper proposes the Whale-Goshawk Optimization Algorithm (WGO), which combines the Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) and Northern Goshawk Optimization Algorithm (NGO). A novel similar integer coding method, incorporating spatial feature information, addresses the limitations of traditional integer coding, while a whale-optimized prey generation strategy improves NGO’s global optimization efficiency.

In industrial-grade recommendation systems, the high complexity of features, the presence of embedding layers, the existence of adversarial samples and the requirements for explanation accuracy and efficiency pose significant challenges to current explanation methods. This paper proposes a novel framework AdvLIME (Adversarial Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanation) that leverages Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) with Embedding Constraints to enhance explainability. This method utilizes adversarial samples as references to explain recommendation decisions, generating these samples in accordance with realistic distributions and ensuring they meet the structural constraints of the embedding module. AdvLIME requires no modifications to the existing model architecture and needs only a single training session for global explanation, making it ideal for industrial applications. This work contributes two significant advancements. First, it develops a model-independent global explanation method via adversarial generation. Second, it introduces a model discrimination method to guarantee that the generated samples adhere to the embedding constraints. We evaluate the AdvLIME framework on the Behavior Sequence Transformer (BST) model using the MovieLens 20 M dataset. The experimental results show that AdvLIME outperforms traditional methods such as LIME and DLIME, reducing the approximation error of real samples by 50% and demonstrating improved stability and accuracy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":71187,"journal":{"name":"自主智能系统(英文)","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s43684-025-00092-2.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143529968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A sample of IT professionals was used for this purpose since they are expected to have earlier and greater awareness of new digital technologies. The perceptions of this group of users regarding attributes such as innovativeness, self-efficacy, social pressure, and awareness, as well as their perceptions of privacy, security, and complexity, were examined through a survey of 208 responses. The results indicate that among the individual attributes, personal innovativeness, awareness, and social pressure positively affect blockchain acceptance, whereas security and privacy concerns fuel the reluctance to adopt blockchain.

However, to engage with dApps, users require a blockchain wallet. This tool facilitates the generation and secure storage of a user's private key and verifies their identity, among other functionalities. Despite their utility, blockchain wallets present significant challenges, such as reliance on trusted third parties, vulnerability to adversaries observing and potentially linking user interactions, key recovery issues, and synchronization of cryptographic keys across multiple devices. This paper addresses these challenges by introducing a fully decentralized multi-platform wallet that leverages blockchain and InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) technologies for managing asymmetric keys and enabling key recovery. This novel approach empowers users to interact with dApps built on blockchain smart contracts while preserving their privacy and ensuring seamless key recovery in the case of device theft or damage. The proposed system is economically viable, with in-depth cost analysis, and demonstrates resilience against security and privacy attacks. A comparative analysis highlights the advantages of the new scheme over existing mainstream and state-of-the-art solutions.
