Privacy protection mechanisms are a fundamental aspect of security in cryptocurrency systems, particularly in decentralized networks such as Bitcoin. Although Bitcoin addresses are not directly associated with real-world identities, this does not fully guarantee user privacy. Various deanonymization solutions have been proposed, with network layer deanonymization attacks being especially prominent. However, existing approaches often exhibit limitations such as low precision. In this paper, we propose \textit{NTSSL}, a novel and efficient transaction deanonymization method that integrates network traffic analysis with semi-supervised learning. We use unsupervised learning algorithms to generate pseudo-labels to achieve comparable performance with lower costs. Then, we introduce \textit{NTSSL+}, a cross-layer collaborative analysis integrating transaction clustering results to further improve accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate a substantial performance improvement, 1.6 times better than the existing approach using machining learning.

Entity alignment is the task of finding entities representing the same real-world object in two knowledge graphs(KGs). Cross-lingual knowledge graph entity alignment aims to discover the cross-lingual links in the multi-language KGs, which is of great significance to the NLP applications and multi-language KGs fusion. In the task of aligning cross-language knowledge graphs, the structures of the two graphs are very similar, and the equivalent entities often have the same subgraph structure characteristics. The traditional GCN method neglects to obtain structural features through representative parts of the original graph and the use of adjacency matrix is not enough to effectively represent the structural features of the graph. In this paper, we introduce the subgraph network (SGN) method into the GCN-based cross-lingual KG entity alignment method. In the method, we extracted the first-order subgraphs of the KGs to expand the structural features of the original graph to enhance the representation ability of the entity embedding and improve the alignment accuracy. Experiments show that the proposed method outperforms the state-of-the-art GCN-based method.
