<abstract><p>Target threat assessment is a critical aspect of information warfare and can offer valuable auxiliary support to combat command decision-making. Aiming to address the shortcomings of three decision-making methods in air combat target assessment, such as the inability to effectively handle uncertain situation information and quantitatively rank the decision-making targets according to their importance, a dynamic intuitionistic fuzzy decision model based on the improved GRA-TOPSIS method and three-way decisions is proposed. First, the target attribute weight is obtained by cosine intuitionistic fuzzy entropy algorithm; then, a novel intuitionistic fuzzy distance measure is introduced, and grey incidence analysis and TOPSIS are used to build the conditional probability for three-way decisions that fully utilize the existing information and reflect the consistency of dynamic change trend; finally, the comprehensive loss function matrix is constructed and the threat classification results are obtained using the decision rules. The example analysis shows that the proposed method can not only effectively handle complex battlefield situations and dynamic uncertain information, but it can also classify targets, improving the effectiveness and rationality of decision-making and providing a reference basis for scientific command decision-making.</p></abstract>

With the development of UAV technology, the task allocation problem of multiple UAVs is remarkable, but most of these existing heuristic methods are easy to fall into the problem of local optimization. In view of this limitation, deep transfer reinforcement learning is applied to the task allocation problem of multiple unmanned aerial vehicles, which provides a new idea about solving this kind of problem. The deep migration reinforcement learning algorithm based on QMIX is designed. The algorithm first compares the target task with the source task in the strategy base to find the task with the highest similarity, and then migrates the network parameters obtained from the source task after training, stored in the strategy base, so as to accelerate the convergence of the QMIX algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is significantly better than the traditional heuristic method of allocation in terms of efficiency and has the same running time.

Drones are widely used in a number of key fields and are having a profound impact on all walks of life. Working out how to improve drone safety through fault detection is key to ensuring the smooth execution of tasks. At present, most research focuses on fault detection at the component level as it is not possible to locate faults quickly from the global system state of a UAV. Moreover, most methods are offline detection methods, which cannot achieve real-time monitoring of UAV faults. To remedy this, this paper proposes a fault detection method based on a fault mode database and runtime verification. Firstly, a large body of historical fault information is analyzed to generate a summary of fault modes, including fault modes at the system level. The key safety properties of UAVs during operation are further studied in terms of system-level fault modes. Next, a monitor generation algorithm and code instrumentation framework are designed to monitor whether a certain safety attribute is violated during the operation of a UAV in real time. The experimental results show that the fault detection method proposed in this paper can detect abnormal situations in a timely and accurate manner.
