Multi-Level Distributional Entropy for Explainable Network Intrusion Detection

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.

Tree-Structured Vector Quantization For Efficient And Progressive Image Compression

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.
