Dynamic link prediction aims to predict future connections among unconnected nodes in a network. It can be applied for friend recommendations, link completion, and other tasks. Network representation learning algorithms have demonstrated considerable effectiveness in various prediction tasks. However, most network representation learning algorithms are based on homogeneous networks and static networks for link prediction that do not consider rich semantic and dynamic information. Additionally, existing dynamic network representation learning methods neglect the neighborhood interaction structure of the node. In this work, we design a neighbor-enhanced dynamic heterogeneous attributed network embedding method (NeiDyHNE) for link prediction. In light of the impressive achievements of the heuristic methods, we learn the information of common neighbors and neighbors’ interaction in heterogeneous networks to preserve the neighbors proximity and common neighbors proximity. NeiDyHNE encodes the attributes and neighborhood structure of nodes as well as the evolutionary features of the dynamic network. More specifically, NeiDyHNE consists of the hierarchical structure attention module and the convolutional temporal attention module. The hierarchical structure attention module captures the rich features and semantic structure of nodes. The convolutional temporal attention module captures the evolutionary features of the network over time in dynamic heterogeneous networks. We evaluate our method and various baseline methods on the dynamic link prediction task. Experimental results demonstrate that our method is superior to baseline methods in terms of accuracy.

Malicious code attacks have severely hindered the current development of the Internet technologies. Once the devices are infected with virus, the damages to companies and users are unpredictable. Although researchers have developed malware detection methods, the analysis result still cannot achieve the desired accuracy due to complicated malicious code families and fast-growing variants. In this paper, to solve this problem, we combine Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) with Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to design an efficient and accurate malware detection method. First, we implement a code visualization method and utilize GAN to generate more samples of malicious code variants in the role of data augmentation. Then, the lightweight AlexNet originated from CNN to classify malware families. Finally, simulation experiments are conducted to evaluate that our CNN plus GAN model can achieve a higher classification accuracy (i.e., 97.78%) compared with some related work.
