Accurate radio map (RM) construction is essential to enabling environment-aware and adaptive wireless communication. However, in future 6G scenarios characterized by high-speed network entities and fast-changing environments, it is very challenging to meet real-time requirements. Although generative diffusion models (DMs) can achieve state-of-the-art accuracy with second-level delay, their iterative nature leads to prohibitive inference latency in delay-sensitive scenarios. In this paper, by uncovering a key structural property of diffusion processes: the latent midpoints remain highly consistent across semantically similar scenes, we propose RadioDiff-Flux, a novel two-stage latent diffusion framework that decouples static environmental modeling from dynamic refinement, enabling the reuse of precomputed midpoints to bypass redundant denoising. In particular, the first stage generates a coarse latent representation using only static scene features, which can be cached and shared across similar scenarios. The second stage adapts this representation to dynamic conditions and transmitter locations using a pre-trained model, thereby avoiding repeated early-stage computation. The proposed RadioDiff-Flux significantly reduces inference time while preserving fidelity. Experiment results show that RadioDiff-Flux can achieve up to $50times $ acceleration with less than 0.15% accuracy loss, demonstrating its practical utility for fast, scalable RM generation in future 6G networks.

With the rapid development of intelligent transportation and low-altitude economy, collaborative distillation has emerged as an efficient distributed learning paradigm that enables multi-terminal cooperation without sharing raw data. However, the open participation nature of such systems also exposes them to label-flipping attacks, where adversarial devices intentionally alter the labels of their local datasets to mislead the global model aggregation, thus compromising the reliability and trustworthiness of collaborative intelligence. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a label-flipping attack defense framework based on temporal feature modeling and unsupervised anomaly detection. In the early global training phase, each device’s multi-round prediction results on a shared public dataset are collected to extract statistical descriptors, including class distribution, prediction entropy, and inter-class transition strength—forming a short-term temporal feature sequence. An autoencoder is then employed to learn the evolution pattern of benign devices, and the reconstruction error combined with statistical deviation is used to compute anomaly scores. These scores are further analyzed by Isolation Forest model to identify potential attackers in an unsupervised manner. Finally, the anomaly scores are mapped to trust weights for weighted aggregation during subsequent distillation rounds, dynamically suppressing the influence of malicious devices. The proposed framework requires no access to raw data or model parameters, achieving accurate and robust attack detection while preserving privacy. Experimental results demonstrate that the method effectively identifies label-flipping devices under varying attack intensities, significantly enhancing the reliability and robustness of collaborative distillation systems, and showing strong potential for deployment in secure and scalable collaborative learning scenarios.

The low-altitude intelligent networks (LAINs) emerge as a promising architecture for delivering low-latency and energy-efficient edge intelligence in dynamic and infrastructure-limited environments. By integrating uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAVs), aerial base stations, and terrestrial base stations, LAINs can support mission-critical applications such as disaster response, environmental monitoring, and real-time sensing. However, these systems face key challenges, including energy-constrained UAVs, stochastic task arrivals, and heterogeneous computing resources. To address these issues, we propose an integrated air-ground collaborative network and formulate a time-dependent integer nonlinear programming problem that jointly optimizes UAV trajectory planning and task offloading decisions. The problem is challenging to solve due to temporal coupling among decision variables. Therefore, we design a hierarchical learning framework with two timescales. At the large timescale, a Vickrey-Clarke-Groves auction mechanism enables the energy-aware and incentive-compatible trajectory assignment. At the small timescale, we propose the diffusion-heterogeneous-agent proximal policy optimization, a generative multi-agent reinforcement learning algorithm that embeds latent diffusion models into actor networks. Each UAV samples actions from a Gaussian prior and refines them via observation-conditioned denoising, enhancing adaptability and policy diversity. Extensive simulations show that our framework outperforms baselines in energy efficiency, task success rate, and convergence performance.
