Kill Chain Search and Evaluation of Weapon System of Systems Based on GAT-DFS
To address the insufficient utilization of network model features and low search efficiency in kill chain analysis for Weapon System of Systems (WSoS), a complex network model of WSoS based on OODA loop was constructed, which converts the indicator system into attribute features embedded in network nodes, and analyzes the kill chain mode through the metapath. Subsequently, a Depth First Search (DFS) algorithm combined with Graph Attention Network (GAT) is proposed for kill chain search evaluation. The algorithm utilizes GAT to extract topological information and node attribute features from graph data to obtain node-embedding vectors, and optimizes the DFS algorithm process by computing the cosine similarity of node-embedding vectors. Simulation results demonstrated that the proposed algorithm achieves high search efficiency and accuracy, providing robust support for combat decision-making.
