Logical Relations for Session-Typed ConcurrencyStephanie Balzer, Farzaneh Derakhshan, Robert Harper et al.
Program equivalence is the fulcrum for reasoning about and proving properties of programs. For noninterference, for example, program equivalence up to the secrecy level of an observer is shown. A powerful enabler for such proofs are logical relations. Logical relations only recently were adopted for session types -- but exclusively for terminating languages. This paper scales logical relations to general recursive session types. It develops a logical relation for progress-sensitive noninterference (PSNI) for intuitionistic linear logic session types (ILLST), tackling the challenges non-termination and concurrency pose, and shows that logical equivalence is sound and complete with regard to closure of weak bisimilarity under parallel composition, using a biorthogonality argument. A distinguishing feature of the logical relation is its stratification with an observation index (as opposed to a step or unfolding index), a crucial shift to make the logical relation closed under parallel composition in a concurrent setting. To demonstrate practicality of the logical relation, the paper develops an information flow control (IFC) refinement type system for ILLST, with support of secrecy-polymorphic processes, and shows that well-typed programs are self-related by the logical relation and thus enjoy PSNI. The refinement type system has been implemented in a type checker, featuring local security theories to support secrecy-polymorphic processes.

An Automated Data Mining Framework Using Autoencoders for Feature Extraction and Dimensionality ReductionYaxin Liang, Xinshi Li, Xin Huang et al.
This study proposes an automated data mining framework based on autoencoders and experimentally verifies its effectiveness in feature extraction and data dimensionality reduction. Through the encoding-decoding structure, the autoencoder can capture the data's potential characteristics and achieve noise reduction and anomaly detection, providing an efficient and stable solution for the data mining process. The experiment compared the performance of the autoencoder with traditional dimensionality reduction methods (such as PCA, FA, T-SNE, and UMAP). The results showed that the autoencoder performed best in terms of reconstruction error and root mean square error and could better retain data structure and enhance the generalization ability of the model. The autoencoder-based framework not only reduces manual intervention but also significantly improves the automation of data processing. In the future, with the advancement of deep learning and big data technology, the autoencoder method combined with a generative adversarial network (GAN) or graph neural network (GNN) is expected to be more widely used in the fields of complex data processing, real-time data analysis and intelligent decision-making.

Leveraging Convolutional Neural Network-Transformer Synergy for Predictive Modeling in Risk-Based ApplicationsYuhan Wang, Zhen Xu, Yue Yao et al.
With the development of the financial industry, credit default prediction, as an important task in financial risk management, has received increasing attention. Traditional credit default prediction methods mostly rely on machine learning models, such as decision trees and random forests, but these methods have certain limitations in processing complex data and capturing potential risk patterns. To this end, this paper proposes a deep learning model based on the combination of convolutional neural networks (CNN) and Transformer for credit user default prediction. The model combines the advantages of CNN in local feature extraction with the ability of Transformer in global dependency modeling, effectively improving the accuracy and robustness of credit default prediction. Through experiments on public credit default datasets, the results show that the CNN+Transformer model outperforms traditional machine learning models, such as random forests and XGBoost, in multiple evaluation indicators such as accuracy, AUC, and KS value, demonstrating its powerful ability in complex financial data modeling. Further experimental analysis shows that appropriate optimizer selection and learning rate adjustment play a vital role in improving model performance. In addition, the ablation experiment of the model verifies the advantages of the combination of CNN and Transformer and proves the complementarity of the two in credit default prediction. This study provides a new idea for credit default prediction and provides strong support for risk assessment and intelligent decision-making in the financial field. Future research can further improve the prediction effect and generalization ability by introducing more unstructured data and improving the model architecture.
