In service-oriented architectures, accurately predicting the Quality of Service (QoS) is crucial for maintaining reliability and enhancing user satisfaction. However, significant challenges remain due to existing methods always overlooking high-order latent collaborative relationships between users and services and failing to dynamically adjust feature learning for every specific user-service invocation, which are critical for learning accurate features. Additionally, reliance on RNNs for capturing QoS evolution hampers models' ability to detect long-term trends due to difficulties in managing long-range dependencies. To address these challenges, we propose the \underline{T}arget-Prompt \underline{O}nline \underline{G}raph \underline{C}ollaborative \underline{L}earning (TOGCL) framework for temporal-aware QoS prediction. TOGCL leverages a dynamic user-service invocation graph to model historical interactions, providing a comprehensive representation of user-service relationships. Building on this graph, it develops a target-prompt graph attention network to extract online deep latent features of users and services at each time slice, simultaneously considering implicit collaborative relationships between target users/services and their neighbors, as well as relevant historical QoS values. Additionally, a multi-layer Transformer encoder is employed to uncover temporal feature evolution patterns of users and services, leading to temporal-aware QoS prediction. Extensive experiments conducted on the WS-DREAM dataset demonstrate that our proposed TOGCL framework significantly outperforms state-of-the-art methods across multiple metrics, achieving improvements of up to 38.80\%. These results underscore the effectiveness of the TOGCL framework for precise temporal QoS prediction.

This paper proposes an noise type classification aided attention-based neural network approach for monaural speech enhancement. The network is constructed based on a previous work by introducing a noise classification subnetwork into the structure and taking the classification embedding into the attention mechanism for guiding the network to make better feature extraction. Specifically, to make the network an end-to-end way, an audio encoder and decoder constructed by temporal convolution is used to make transformation between waveform and spectrogram. Additionally, our model is composed of two long short term memory (LSTM) based encoders, two attention mechanism, a noise classifier and a speech mask generator. Experiments show that, compared with OM-LSA and the previous work, the proposed noise classification aided attention-based approach can achieve better performance in terms of speech quality (PESQ). More promisingly, our approach has better generalization ability to unseen noise conditions.
