Attention-Enhanced Contrastive BiLSTM for UAV Intention Recognition Under Information Uncertainty

The widespread deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in modern warfare has profoundly increased the complexity and dynamic nature of aerial combat. To address the limitations of traditional UAV combat intention recognition methods, which rely on the “complete information” assumption and struggle to adapt effectively to dynamic adversarial environments, this paper proposes a deep learning-based UAV air combat intention recognition model (BLAC). The BLAC model establishes dynamic temporal feature mappings through a bidirectional long short-term memory network (BL) and innovatively incorporates a cross-attention mechanism (A) paired with contrastive learning (C) to improve model performance. To mitigate battlefield information uncertainty, the BLAC model implements cubic spline interpolation for numerical features and proximity-based imputation for non-numerical features, effectively resolving data loss challenges. The experimental results demonstrate that the BLAC model achieves superior intention recognition accuracy compared to mainstream models, maintaining over 91% accuracy even under 30% data loss conditions. These outcomes confirm the robustness and adaptability of the model in dynamic combat environments. This research not only provides an efficient framework for UAV combat intention recognition under information uncertainty but also offers valuable theoretical and practical insights for advancing intelligent command and control systems.

Abstract

The widespread deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in modern warfare has profoundly increased the complexity and dynamic nature of aerial combat. To address the limitations of traditional UAV combat intention recognition methods, which rely on the “complete information” assumption and struggle to adapt effectively to dynamic adversarial environments, this paper proposes a deep learning-based UAV air combat intention recognition model (BLAC). The BLAC model establishes dynamic temporal feature mappings through a bidirectional long short-term memory network (BL) and innovatively incorporates a cross-attention mechanism (A) paired with contrastive learning (C) to improve model performance. To mitigate battlefield information uncertainty, the BLAC model implements cubic spline interpolation for numerical features and proximity-based imputation for non-numerical features, effectively resolving data loss challenges. The experimental results demonstrate that the BLAC model achieves superior intention recognition accuracy compared to mainstream models, maintaining over 91% accuracy even under 30% data loss conditions. These outcomes confirm the robustness and adaptability of the model in dynamic combat environments. This research not only provides an efficient framework for UAV combat intention recognition under information uncertainty but also offers valuable theoretical and practical insights for advancing intelligent command and control systems.
