Machine learning network intrusion detection systems (IDS) rely on aggregate flow statistics that discard distributional structure, while established entropy measures require raw packet sequences unavailable in pre-aggregated flow datasets. We propose Multi-Level Distributional Entropy (MDE), an analytical framework that derives interpretable entropy features directly from flow-level summary statistics at three levels: within-flow Gaussian differential entropy, cross-directional Jensen-Shannon divergence (JSD), and Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) flag-pattern Shannon entropy, without raw packet access or training data.
Learned image compression (LIC) has achieved impressive rate-distortion performance. However, existing methods remain highly vulnerable to packet loss, a common challenge in satellite and emergency communications.
Tree-VQ introduces a progressive tree‑structured vector quantization framework for learned image compression, organizing discrete codewords in a hierarchical binary tree where each latent token is represented by a routed root‑to‑leaf path. Every prefix of this path yields a valid quantized representation, enabling coarse reconstructions from shallow nodes and successive refinements from deeper nodes. The method incorporates a prefix‑compatible tree entropy model, rate‑aware refinement scheduling, and hierarchical prefix supervision to achieve efficient, low‑latency compression with superior perceptual quality and fewer parameters compared to existing approaches.
