This paper investigates deep learning techniques to predict transmit beamforming based on only historical channel data without current channel information in the multiuser multiple-input-single-output downlink. This will significantly reduce the channel estimation overhead and improve the spectrum efficiency especially in high-mobility vehicular communications. Specifically, we propose a joint learning framework that incorporates channel prediction and power optimization, and produces prediction for transmit beamforming directly. In addition, we propose to use the attention mechanism in the Long Short-Term Memory Recurrent Neural Networks to improve the accuracy of channel prediction. Simulation results using both a simple autoregressive process model and the more realistic 3GPP spatial channel model verify that our proposed predictive beamforming scheme can significantly improve the effective spectrum efficiency compared to traditional channel estimation and the method that separately predicts channel and then optimizes beamforming.

Multiple robots could perceive a scene (e.g., detect objects) collaboratively better than individuals, although easily suffer from adversarial attacks when using deep learning. This could be addressed by the adversarial defense, but its training requires the often-unknown attacking mechanism. Differently, we propose ROBOSAC, a novel sampling-based defense strategy generalizable to unseen attackers. Our key idea is that collaborative perception should lead to consensus rather than dissensus in results compared to individual perception. This leads to our hypothesize-and-verify framework: perception results with and without collaboration from a random subset of teammates are compared until reaching a consensus. In such a framework, more teammates in the sampled subset often entail better perception performance but require longer sampling time to reject potential attackers. Thus, we derive how many sampling trials are needed to ensure the desired size of an attacker-free subset, or equivalently, the maximum size of such a subset that we can successfully sample within a given number of trials. We validate our method on the task of collaborative 3D object detection in autonomous driving scenarios.
To accommodate the explosive wireless traffics, massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is regarded as one of the key enabling technologies for next-generation communication systems. In massive MIMO cellular networks, coordinated beamforming (CBF), which jointly designs the beamformers of multiple base stations (BSs), is an efficient method to enhance the network performance. In this paper, we investigate the sum rate maximization problem in a massive MIMO mobile cellular network, where in each cell a multi-antenna BS serves multiple mobile users simultaneously via downlink beamforming. Although existing optimization-based CBF algorithms can provide near-optimal solutions, they require realtime and global channel state information (CSI), in addition to their high computation complexity. It is almost impossible to apply them in practical wireless networks, especially highly dynamic mobile cellular networks. Motivated by this, we propose a deep reinforcement learning based distributed dynamic coordinated beamforming (DDCBF) framework, which enables each BS to determine the beamformers with only local CSI and some historical information from other BSs.Besides, the beamformers can be calculated with a considerably lower computational complexity by exploiting neural networks and expert knowledge, i.e., a solution structure observed from the iterative procedure of the weighted minimum mean square error (WMMSE) algorithm. Moreover, we provide extensive numerical simulations to validate the effectiveness of the proposed DRL-based approach. With lower computational complexity and less required information, the results show that the proposed approach can achieve comparable performance to the centralized iterative optimization algorithms.
Backpropagation algorithm has been widely used as a mainstream learning procedure for neural networks in the past decade, and has played a significant role in the development of deep learning. However, there exist some limitations associated with this algorithm, such as getting stuck in local minima and experiencing vanishing/exploding gradients, which have led to questions about its biological plausibility. To address these limitations, alternative algorithms to backpropagation have been preliminarily explored, with the Forward-Forward (FF) algorithm being one of the most well-known. In this paper we propose a new learning framework for neural networks, namely Cascaded Forward (CaFo) algorithm, which does not rely on BP optimization as that in FF. Unlike FF, our framework directly outputs label distributions at each cascaded block, which does not require generation of additional negative samples and thus leads to a more efficient process at both training and testing. Moreover, in our framework each block can be trained independently, so it can be easily deployed into parallel acceleration systems. The proposed method is evaluated on four public image classification benchmarks, and the experimental results illustrate significant improvement in prediction accuracy in comparison with the baseline.
Although reinforcement learning has seen tremendous success recently, this kind of trial-and-error learning can be impractical or inefficient in complex environments. The use of demonstrations, on the other hand, enables agents to benefit from expert knowledge rather than having to discover the best action to take through exploration. In this survey, we discuss the advantages of using demonstrations in sequential decision making, various ways to apply demonstrations in learning-based decision making paradigms (for example, reinforcement learning and planning in the learned models), and how to collect the demonstrations in various scenarios. Additionally, we exemplify a practical pipeline for generating and utilizing demonstrations in the recently proposed ManiSkill robot learning benchmark.
We present Unified Contrastive Arbitrary Style Transfer (UCAST), a novel style representation learning and transfer framework, which can fit in most existing arbitrary image style transfer models, e.g., CNN-based, ViT-based, and flow-based methods. As the key component in image style transfer tasks, a suitable style representation is essential to achieve satisfactory results. Existing approaches based on deep neural network typically use second-order statistics to generate the output. However, these hand-crafted features computed from a single image cannot leverage style information sufficiently, which leads to artifacts such as local distortions and style inconsistency. To address these issues, we propose to learn style representation directly from a large amount of images based on contrastive learning, by taking the relationships between specific styles and the holistic style distribution into account. Specifically, we present an adaptive contrastive learning scheme for style transfer by introducing an input-dependent temperature. Our framework consists of three key components, i.e., a parallel contrastive learning scheme for style representation and style transfer, a domain enhancement module for effective learning of style distribution, and a generative network for style transfer. We carry out qualitative and quantitative evaluations to show that our approach produces superior results than those obtained via state-of-the-art methods.
Many recent pattern recognition applications rely on complex distributed architectures in which sensing and computational nodes interact together through a communication network. Deep neural networks (DNNs) play an important role in this scenario, furnishing powerful decision mechanisms, at the price of a high computational effort. Consequently, powerful state-of-the-art DNNs are frequently split over various computational nodes, e.g., a first part stays on an embedded device and the rest on a server. Deciding where to split a DNN is a challenge in itself, making the design of deep learning applications even more complicated. Therefore, we propose Split-Et-Impera, a novel and practical framework that i) determines the set of the best-split points of a neural network based on deep network interpretability principles without performing a tedious try-and-test approach, ii) performs a communication-aware simulation for the rapid evaluation of different neural network rearrangements, and iii) suggests the best match between the quality of service requirements of the application and the performance in terms of accuracy and latency time.
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) has been anticipated to be a novel cost-effective technology to improve the performance of future wireless systems. In this paper, we investigate a practical RIS-aided multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) system in the presence of transceiver hardware impairments, RIS phase noise and imperfect channel state information (CSI). Joint design of the MIMO transceiver and RIS reflection matrix to minimize the total average mean-square-error (MSE) of all data streams is particularly considered. This joint design problem is non-convex and challenging to solve due to the newly considered practical imperfections. To tackle the issue, we first analyze the total average MSE by incorporating the impacts of the above system imperfections. Then, in order to handle the tightly coupled optimization variables and non-convex NP-hard constraints, an efficient iterative algorithm based on alternating optimization (AO) framework is proposed with guaranteed convergence, where each subproblem admits a closed-form optimal solution by leveraging the majorization-minimization (MM) technique. Moreover, via exploiting the special structure of the unit-modulus constraints, we propose a modified Riemannian gradient ascent (RGA) algorithm for the discrete RIS phase shift optimization. Furthermore, the optimality of the proposed algorithm is validated under line-of-sight (LoS) channel conditions, and the irreducible MSE floor effect induced by imperfections of both hardware and CSI is also revealed in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime. Numerical results show the superior MSE performance of our proposed algorithm over the adopted benchmark schemes, and demonstrate that increasing the number of RIS elements is not always beneficial under the above system imperfections.

Many tasks in natural language processing can be viewed as multi-label classification problems. However, most of the existing models are trained with the standard cross-entropy loss function and use a fixed prediction policy (e.g., a threshold of 0.5) for all the labels, which completely ignores the complexity and dependencies among different labels. In this paper, we propose a meta-learning method to capture these complex label dependencies. More specifically, our method utilizes a meta-learner to jointly learn the training policies and prediction policies for different labels. The training policies are then used to train the classifier with the cross-entropy loss function, and the prediction policies are further implemented for prediction. Experimental results on fine-grained entity typing and text classification demonstrate that our proposed method can obtain more accurate multi-label classification results.
