Congress is weighing new mental-health support and $11 million in training funding for U.S. Cyber Command after a cluster of personnel suicides.

Lawmakers view recent suicide deaths among U.S. Cyber Command personnel as an inflection point amid record operational tempo, including missions against Iran and Venezuela. Possible vehicles include the NDAA and the next funding bill; the House Appropriations Committee approved $11 million for the command's High Performance Team Training. A FY2024 NDAA-ordered study found resources for the Cyber Mission Force are inadequate and may jeopardize readiness, and Gen. Joshua Rudd has ordered weekly service-cyber check-ins on suicide-prevention efforts.

LLM-Based Schema-Aware Split Learning for Privacy-Preserving Mental Distress Prediction Across Heterogeneous Surveys

Schema-aware split learning uses LLaMA-3.2-3B-Instruct as shared semantic encoder to harmonize heterogeneous mental-health surveys while raw data stays local.

The paper proposes a schema-aware split learning framework where an LLM serializes heterogeneous mental health survey records into natural language and is fine-tuned via LoRA, partitioned across client and server. Clients keep raw survey responses local and run only a lightweight front-end while the resource-intensive backbone runs server-side. Using LLaMA-3.2-3B-Instruct, the framework attains an average ANLS of 0.708 with 2,000 training samples, beats federated learning in eight of nine settings, and cuts per-client computation by three orders of magnitude while generalizing to unseen datasets.
