TraceCodec: A Compiler-Backed Neural Codec for Stateful Multi-Flow Network Traffic Traces

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2605.29941v1 Announce Type: cross Critical networking workflows require high-fidelity packet captures (PCAPs) for testing, security analysis, and protocol validation, not just statistical flow-level summaries. Recent packet generators have nstrated protocol-constrained PCAP synthesis, but they universally decode directly to raw packet fields. That interface entangles learned behavioral choices with deterministic protocol consequences, which forces packet realization to depend on post-hoc heuristic repair.
