Digital twin has become a critical technical solution for satellite in-orbit service and maintenance. The majority of existing research in this field has focused on constructing system-level digital twins, with various typical applications that primarily describe the operating condition of satellite subsystems. However, achieving a more meticulous portrayal of in-orbit satellites necessitates the inclusion of physical field information, e.g., the temperature field serves as a fundamental basis for characterizing the thermodynamic state and plays a crucial role in precise thermal management of a satellite. The main challenge for realizing thorough state detection and real-time response lies in the cross-level model fusion of system simulation and physical field calculation. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a Hybrid Digital Twin (HDT) framework that seamlessly integrates the digital twin at the system-level with its physical field-level counterpart, enabling a comprehensive and detailed representation of modeling objects. Specifically, at the physical field-level, deep learning methods are utilized to construct an accurate surrogate model, offering a lightweight, computationally efficient and accelerated execution alternative to the Finite Element Analysis models. At the system-level, multi-domain unified modeling technology is employed to ensure both efficiency and accuracy of coupling simulation. Moreover, a co-simulation approach is developed on the basis of the Functional Mock-up Interface, overcoming the bottleneck of cross-level information interaction and computing time synchronization. The practical utility of the proposed framework is verified by a real-world engineering problem, i.e., satellite temperature field perception and attitude control in the context of the harsh space environment. Whole process engineering experiments demonstrate the effectiveness of the HDT, with mean absolute errors below 1 K for temperature field reconstruction and within 1° for attitude control.

Given the pervasive use of deep learning models across various domains, ensuring model security has emerged as a critical concern. This paper examines backdoor attacks, a form of security threat that compromises model output by poisoning the training data. Our investigation specifically addresses backdoor attacks on object detection models, vital for security-sensitive applications like autonomous driving and smart city systems. Consequently, such attacks on object detection models could pose significant risks to human life and property. Consequently, backdoor attacks on object detection could pose serious threats to human life and property. To elucidate this security risk, we propose and experimentally evaluate five backdoor attack methods for object detection models. The key findings are: (1) Unnecessary Object Generation : a globally embedded trigger creating false objects in the target class; (2) Partial Misclassification : a trigger causing specific class misclassification; (3) Global Misclassification : a trigger reclassifying all objects into the target class; (4) Specific Object Vanishing : a trigger causing non-detection of certain objects; (5) Object Position Shifting : a trigger causing bounding box shifts for a specific class. To assess attack effectiveness, we introduced the Attack Success Rate (ASR), which can surpass 1 in object detection tasks, thus providing a more accurate reflection of the attack impact. Experimental outcomes indicate that the ASR values of these varied backdoor attacks frequently approach or surpass 1, demonstrating our method's capacity to impact multiple objects simultaneously. Additionally, to augment trigger stealth, we introduce Backdoor Attack with Wavelet Embedding (BAWE), which discreetly embeds triggers as image watermarks in training data. This embedding method yields more natural triggers with enhanced stealth. Highly stealthy triggers are less detectable, significantly increasing the likelihood of attack success and efficacy. We have developed a Transformer-based network architecture, diverging from traditional neural network frameworks. Our experiments across various object detection datasets highlight the susceptibility of these models and the high success rate of our approaches. This vulnerability poses significant risks to digital twin systems utilizing object detection technology. Our methodology not only enhances trigger stealth but also suits dense predictive tasks and circumvents current neural network backdoor attack detection methods. The experimental findings expose key challenges in the security of object detection models, particularly when integrated with digital twins, offering new avenues for backdoor attack research and foundational insights for devising defense strategies against these attacks. • We embed watermarks as invisible triggers in training data using wavelet transform. • Our method is suited for dense prediction tasks like object detection. • We use watermarks as triggers and are not limited to standard neural network.
