Abstract: Embodiments of this specification provide language model training methods and apparatuses based on continual pre-training. In one example method, a soft prompt feature corresponding to each current training sample in a current domain is obtained. A latent feature corresponding to each piece of text data in the current domain is obtained. A cross-domain loss value is determined based on a difference between the obtained latent feature and a latent feature obtained based on an initial current language model in a previous domain. When a training termination condition for the current domain is not satisfied, model parameters are adjusted based on the cross-domain loss value. When a training termination condition for the current domain is satisfied, the model training process is repeated by continuing using a training sample set in a next domain, until a training termination condition for continual pre-training is satisfied.

Abstract: Provided is an automatic event graph construction method for multi-source vulnerability information. The method includes the following steps. A vulnerability report is crawled from a vulnerability database, a cause of vulnerability is taken as an event trigger word, and a vulnerability type is determined through the cause of vulnerability. An attacker, consequence, location and other information in a description are identified by named-entity recognition, and information completion is performed. An explicit relation between events is extracted by using text information, an implicit relation between events is extracted by using text similarity, and vulnerability-related code representation is performed. Obtained vulnerability event information is visualized into an event graph through a visualization tool.
