Digital twin (DT) platforms are increasingly regarded as a promising technology for controlling, optimizing, and monitoring complex engineering systems such as next-generation wireless networks. An important challenge in adopting DT solutions is their reliance on data collected offline, lacking direct access to the physical environment. This limitation is particularly severe in multi-agent systems, for which conventional multi-agent reinforcement (MARL) requires online interactions with the environment. A direct application of online MARL schemes to an offline setting would generally fail due to the epistemic uncertainty entailed by the limited availability of data. In this work, we propose an offline MARL scheme for DT-based wireless networks that integrates distributional RL and conservative Q-learning to address the environment's inherent aleatoric uncertainty and the epistemic uncertainty arising from limited data. To further exploit the offline data, we adapt the proposed scheme to the centralized training decentralized execution framework, allowing joint training of the agents' policies. The proposed MARL scheme, referred to as multi-agent conservative quantile regression (MA-CQR) addresses general risk-sensitive design criteria and is applied to the trajectory planning problem in drone networks, showcasing its advantages.

We introduce for non-uniform messages a novel hybrid universal network coding cryptosystem (NU-HUNCC) in the finite blocklength regime that provides Post-Quantum (PQ) security at high communication rates. Recently, hybrid cryptosystems offered PQ security by premixing the data using secure coding schemes and encrypting only a small portion of it, assuming the data is uniformly distributed. An assumption that is often challenging to enforce. Standard fixed-length lossless source coding and compression schemes guarantee a uniform output in normalized divergence. Yet, his is not sufficient to guarantee security. We consider an efficient almost uniform compression scheme in non-normalized variational distance for the proposed hybrid cryptosystem, that by utilizing uniform sub-linear shared seed, guarantees PQ security. Specifically, for the proposed PQ cryptosystem, first, we provide an end-to-end coding scheme, NU-HUNCC, for non-uniform messages. Second, we show that NU-HUNCC is information-theoretic individually secured (IS) against an eavesdropper with access to any subset of the links. Third, we introduce a modified security definition, individually semantically secure under a chosen ciphertext attack (ISS-CCA1), and show that against an all-observing eavesdropper, NU-HUNCC satisfies its conditions. Finally, we provide an analysis that shows the high communication rate of NU-HUNCC and the negligibility of the shared seed size.

Stacked intelligent metasurfaces (SIM) are capable of emulating reconfigurable physical neural networks by relying on electromagnetic (EM) waves as carriers. They can also perform various complex computational and signal processing tasks. A SIM is fabricated by densely integrating multiple metasurface layers, each consisting of a large number of small meta-atoms that can control the EM waves passing through it. In this paper, we harness a SIM for two-dimensional (2D) direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation. In contrast to the conventional designs, an advanced SIM in front of the receiver array automatically carries out the 2D discrete Fourier transform (DFT) as the incident waves propagate through it. As a result, the receiver array directly observes the angular spectrum of the incoming signal. In this context, the DOA estimates can be readily obtained by using probes to detect the energy distribution on the receiver array. This avoids the need for power-thirsty radio frequency (RF) chains. To enable SIM to perform the 2D DFT, we formulate the optimization problem of minimizing the fitting error between the SIM's EM response and the 2D DFT matrix. Furthermore, a gradient descent algorithm is customized for iteratively updating the phase shift of each meta-atom in SIM. To further improve the DOA estimation accuracy, we configure the phase shift pattern in the zeroth layer of the SIM to generate a set of 2D DFT matrices associated with orthogonal spatial frequency bins. Additionally, we analytically evaluate the performance of the proposed SIM-based DOA estimator by deriving a tight upper bound for the mean square error (MSE). Our numerical simulations verify the capability of a well-trained SIM to perform DOA estimation and corroborate our theoretical analysis. It is demonstrated that a SIM having an optical computational speed achieves an MSE of $10^{-4}$ for DOA estimation.

Nowadays, the demand for image transmission over wireless networks has surged significantly. To meet the need for swift delivery of high-quality images through time-varying channels with limited bandwidth, the development of efficient transmission strategies and techniques for preserving image quality is of importance. This paper introduces an innovative approach to Joint Source-Channel Coding (JSCC) tailored for wireless image transmission. It capitalizes on the power of Compressed Sensing (CS) to achieve superior compression and resilience to channel noise. In this method, the process begins with the compression of images using a block-based CS technique implemented through a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) structure. Subsequently, the images are encoded by directly mapping image blocks to complex-valued channel input symbols. Upon reception, the data is decoded to recover the channel-encoded information, effectively removing the noise introduced during transmission. To finalize the process, a novel CNN-based reconstruction network is employed to restore the original image from the channel-decoded data. The performance of the proposed method is assessed using the CIFAR-10 and Kodak datasets. The results illustrate a substantial improvement over existing JSCC frameworks when assessed in terms of metrics such as Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structural Similarity Index (SSIM) across various channel Signal-to-Noise Ratios (SNRs) and channel bandwidth values. These findings underscore the potential of harnessing CNN-based CS for the development of deep JSCC algorithms tailored for wireless image transmission.

Autonomous robot navigation within the dynamic unknown environment is of crucial significance for mobile robotic applications including robot navigation in last-mile delivery and robot-enabled automated supplies in industrial and hospital delivery applications. Current solutions still suffer from limitations, such as the robot cannot recognize unknown objects in real time and cannot navigate freely in a dynamic, narrow, and complex environment. We propose a complete software framework for autonomous robot perception and navigation within very dense obstacles and dense human crowds. First, we propose a framework that accurately detects and segments open-world object categories in a zero-shot manner, which overcomes the over-segmentation limitation of the current SAM model. Second, we proposed the distillation strategy to distill the knowledge to segment the free space of the walkway for robot navigation without the label. In the meantime, we design the trimming strategy that works collaboratively with distillation to enable lightweight inference to deploy the neural network on edge devices such as NVIDIA-TX2 or Xavier NX during autonomous navigation. Integrated into the robot navigation system, extensive experiments demonstrate that our proposed framework has achieved superior performance in terms of both accuracy and efficiency in robot scene perception and autonomous robot navigation.

Learning a universal policy across different robot morphologies can significantly improve learning efficiency and enable zero-shot generalization to unseen morphologies. However, learning a highly performant universal policy requires sophisticated architectures like transformers (TF) that have larger memory and computational cost than simpler multi-layer perceptrons (MLP). To achieve both good performance like TF and high efficiency like MLP at inference time, we propose HyperDistill, which consists of: (1) A morphology-conditioned hypernetwork (HN) that generates robot-wise MLP policies, and (2) A policy distillation approach that is essential for successful training. We show that on UNIMAL, a benchmark with hundreds of diverse morphologies, HyperDistill performs as well as a universal TF teacher policy on both training and unseen test robots, but reduces model size by 6-14 times, and computational cost by 67-160 times in different environments. Our analysis attributes the efficiency advantage of HyperDistill at inference time to knowledge decoupling, i.e., the ability to decouple inter-task and intra-task knowledge, a general principle that could also be applied to improve inference efficiency in other domains.

Multimedia services over mobile networks pose several challenges, such as the efficient management of radio resources or the latency induced by network delays and buffering requirements on the multimedia players. In Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks, the definition of multimedia broadcast services over a common radio channel addresses the shortage of radio resources but introduces the problem of network error recovery. In order to address network errors on LTE multimedia broadcast services, the current standards propose the combined use of forward error correction and unicast recovery techniques at the application level. This paper shows how to efficiently synchronize the broadcasting server and the multimedia players and how to reduce service latency by limiting the multimedia player buffer length. This is accomplished by analyzing the relation between the different parameters of the LTE multimedia broadcast service, the multimedia player buffer length, and service interruptions. A case study is simulated to confirm how the quality of the multimedia service is improved by applying our proposals.

Vast amount of data generated from networks of sensors, wearables, and the Internet of Things (IoT) devices underscores the need for advanced modeling techniques that leverage the spatio-temporal structure of decentralized data due to the need for edge computation and licensing (data access) issues. While federated learning (FL) has emerged as a framework for model training without requiring direct data sharing and exchange, effectively modeling the complex spatio-temporal dependencies to improve forecasting capabilities still remains an open problem. On the other hand, state-of-the-art spatio-temporal forecasting models assume unfettered access to the data, neglecting constraints on data sharing. To bridge this gap, we propose a federated spatio-temporal model -- Cross-Node Federated Graph Neural Network (CNFGNN) -- which explicitly encodes the underlying graph structure using graph neural network (GNN)-based architecture under the constraint of cross-node federated learning, which requires that data in a network of nodes is generated locally on each node and remains decentralized. CNFGNN operates by disentangling the temporal dynamics modeling on devices and spatial dynamics on the server, utilizing alternating optimization to reduce the communication cost, facilitating computations on the edge devices. Experiments on the traffic flow forecasting task show that CNFGNN achieves the best forecasting performance in both transductive and inductive learning settings with no extra computation cost on edge devices, while incurring modest communication cost.

Graph Convolutional Network (GCN) has been widely applied in transportation demand prediction due to its excellent ability to capture non-Euclidean spatial dependence among station-level or regional transportation demands. However, in most of the existing research, the graph convolution was implemented on a heuristically generated adjacency matrix, which could neither reflect the real spatial relationships of stations accurately, nor capture the multi-level spatial dependence of demands adaptively. To cope with the above problems, this paper provides a novel graph convolutional network for transportation demand prediction. Firstly, a novel graph convolution architecture is proposed, which has different adjacency matrices in different layers and all the adjacency matrices are self-learned during the training process. Secondly, a layer-wise coupling mechanism is provided, which associates the upper-level adjacency matrix with the lower-level one. It also reduces the scale of parameters in our model. Lastly, a unitary network is constructed to give the final prediction result by integrating the hidden spatial states with gated recurrent unit, which could capture the multi-level spatial dependence and temporal dynamics simultaneously. Experiments have been conducted on two real-world datasets, NYC Citi Bike and NYC Taxi, and the results demonstrate the superiority of our model over the state-of-the-art ones.

Few-shot Knowledge Graph (KG) completion is a focus of current research, where each task aims at querying unseen facts of a relation given its few-shot reference entity pairs. Recent attempts solve this problem by learning static representations of entities and references, ignoring their dynamic properties, i.e., entities may exhibit diverse roles within task relations, and references may make different contributions to queries. This work proposes an adaptive attentional network for few-shot KG completion by learning adaptive entity and reference representations. Specifically, entities are modeled by an adaptive neighbor encoder to discern their task-oriented roles, while references are modeled by an adaptive query-aware aggregator to differentiate their contributions. Through the attention mechanism, both entities and references can capture their fine-grained semantic meanings, and thus render more expressive representations. This will be more predictive for knowledge acquisition in the few-shot scenario. Evaluation in link prediction on two public datasets shows that our approach achieves new state-of-the-art results with different few-shot sizes.
