BattleTag b86ae87b75 Initial commit: ER-TP-DGP research prototype
Event-Reified Temporal Provenance Dual-Granularity Prompting for
LLM-based APT detection on DARPA provenance datasets.

Includes phase 0-14 method spec, IR/graph/metapath/trimming/prompt
modules, scripts for THEIA candidate universe, landmark CSG construction,
hybrid prompting, and LLM inference. Excludes data/, reports/, and
local LLM config from version control.

Phase 7 Temporal Security-aware Metapath Trimming

Trimming selects evidence paths under each metapath before prompt construction. It is not random sampling and not BFS truncation.

Main Scoring Dimensions

  • structural relevance;
  • metapath diffusion similarity or its current explicit scaffold;
  • temporal proximity to the target;
  • behavior rarity;
  • semantic similarity to target process/file/network context;
  • path length penalty;
  • security-stage relevance;
  • rare path, parent-child, endpoint, or file interaction signals;
  • valid target-relative time window.

Output Contract

Each selected evidence path must include:

  • path_id;
  • metapath_type;
  • ordered event IDs;
  • ordered entity/event node IDs;
  • timestamps;
  • raw actions;
  • selected reason;
  • trimming score;
  • summary status.

Ablations

Random neighbors, shortest path only, BFS-only, no temporal term, and no security-aware term are ablation or baseline settings only.
