There is an increasing interest in the development of new data-driven models useful to assess the performance of communication networks. For many applications, like network monitoring and troubleshooting, a data model is of little use if it cannot be interpreted by a human operator. In this paper, we present an extension of the Multivariate Big Data Analysis (MBDA) methodology, a recently proposed interpretable data analysis tool. In this extension, we propose a solution to the automatic derivation of features, a cornerstone step for the application of MBDA when the amount of data is massive. The resulting network monitoring approach allows us to detect and diagnose disparate network anomalies, with a data-analysis workflow that combines the advantages of interpretable and interactive models with the power of parallel processing. We apply the extended MBDA to two case studies: UGR'16, a benchmark flow-based real-traffic dataset for anomaly detection, and Dartmouth'18, the longest and largest Wi-Fi trace known to date.

Scene transfer for vision-based mobile robotics applications is a highly relevant and challenging problem. The utility of a robot greatly depends on its ability to perform a task in the real world, outside of a well-controlled lab environment. Existing scene transfer end-to-end policy learning approaches often suffer from poor sample efficiency or limited generalization capabilities, making them unsuitable for mobile robotics applications. This work proposes an adaptive multi-pair contrastive learning strategy for visual representation learning that enables zero-shot scene transfer and real-world deployment. Control policies relying on the embedding are able to operate in unseen environments without the need for finetuning in the deployment environment. We demonstrate the performance of our approach on the task of agile, vision-based quadrotor flight. Extensive simulation and real-world experiments demonstrate that our approach successfully generalizes beyond the training domain and outperforms all baselines.

Data preprocessing is a crucial part of any machine learning pipeline, and it can have a significant impact on both performance and training efficiency. This is especially evident when using deep neural networks for time series prediction and classification: real-world time series data often exhibit irregularities such as multi-modality, skewness and outliers, and the model performance can degrade rapidly if these characteristics are not adequately addressed. In this work, we propose the EDAIN (Extended Deep Adaptive Input Normalization) layer, a novel adaptive neural layer that learns how to appropriately normalize irregular time series data for a given task in an end-to-end fashion, instead of using a fixed normalization scheme. This is achieved by optimizing its unknown parameters simultaneously with the deep neural network using back-propagation. Our experiments, conducted using synthetic data, a credit default prediction dataset, and a large-scale limit order book benchmark dataset, demonstrate the superior performance of the EDAIN layer when compared to conventional normalization methods and existing adaptive time series preprocessing layers.

Separating signals from an additive mixture may be an unnecessarily hard problem when one is only interested in specific properties of a given signal. In this work, we tackle simpler "statistical component separation" problems that focus on recovering a predefined set of statistical descriptors of a target signal from a noisy mixture. Assuming access to samples of the noise process, we investigate a method devised to match the statistics of the solution candidate corrupted by noise samples with those of the observed mixture. We first analyze the behavior of this method using simple examples with analytically tractable calculations. Then, we apply it in an image denoising context employing 1) wavelet-based descriptors, 2) ConvNet-based descriptors on astrophysics and ImageNet data. In the case of 1), we show that our method better recovers the descriptors of the target data than a standard denoising method in most situations. Additionally, despite not constructed for this purpose, it performs surprisingly well in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio on full signal reconstruction. In comparison, representation 2) appears less suitable for image denoising. Finally, we extend this method by introducing a diffusive stepwise algorithm which gives a new perspective to the initial method and leads to promising results for image denoising under specific circumstances.

Urban traffic environments present unique challenges for object detection, particularly with the increasing presence of micromobility vehicles like e-scooters and bikes. To address this object detection problem, this work introduces an adapted detection model that combines the accuracy and speed of single-frame object detection with the richer features offered by video object detection frameworks. This is done by applying aggregated feature maps from consecutive frames processed through motion flow to the YOLOX architecture. This fusion brings a temporal perspective to YOLOX detection abilities, allowing for a better understanding of urban mobility patterns and substantially improving detection reliability. Tested on a custom dataset curated for urban micromobility scenarios, our model showcases substantial improvement over existing state-of-the-art methods, demonstrating the need to consider spatio-temporal information for detecting such small and thin objects. Our approach enhances detection in challenging conditions, including occlusions, ensuring temporal consistency, and effectively mitigating motion blur.

The recently emerging molecular communication (MC) paradigm intents to leverage communication engineering tools for the design of synthetic chemical communication systems. These systems are envisioned to operate on nanoscale and in biological environments, such as the human body, and catalyze the emergence of revolutionary applications in the context of early disease monitoring and drug targeting. However, while a plethora of theoretical (and more recently also more and more practical) MC system designs have been proposed over the past years, some fundamental questions remain open, hindering the breakthrough of MC in real-world applications. One of these questions is: What is a useful measure of information in the context of MC-based applications? While most existing works in MC build upon the concept of syntactic information as introduced by Shannon, in this paper, we explore the framework of semantic information as introduced by Kolchinsky and Wolpert for the information theoretical analysis of a natural MC system, namely bacterial chemotaxis. Exploiting the computational modeling tool of agent-based modeling (ABM), we are able to demonstrate that the semantic information framework can provide a useful information theoretical framework for quantifying the information exchange of chemotactic bacteria with their environment. In particular, we show that the measured semantic information provides a useful measure of the ability of the bacteria to adapt to and survive in a changing environment. Encouraged by our results, we envision that the semantic information framework can open new avenues for developing theoretical and practical MC system designs and in this way help to unleash the full potential of MC for complex adaptive systems-based nanoscale applications.

Synergies between advanced communications, computing and artificial intelligence are unraveling new directions of coordinated operation and resiliency in microgrids. On one hand, coordination among sources is facilitated by distributed, privacy-minded processing at multiple locations, whereas on the other hand, it also creates exogenous data arrival paths for adversaries that can lead to cyber-physical attacks amongst other reliability issues in the communication layer. This long-standing problem necessitates new intrinsic ways of exchanging information between converters through power lines to optimize the system's control performance. Going beyond the existing power and data co-transfer technologies that are limited by efficiency and scalability concerns, this paper proposes neuromorphic learning to implant communicative features using spiking neural networks (SNNs) at each node, which is trained collaboratively in an online manner simply using the power exchanges between the nodes. As opposed to the conventional neuromorphic sensors that operate with spiking signals, we employ an event-driven selective process to collect sparse data for training of SNNs. Finally, its multi-fold effectiveness and reliable performance is validated under simulation conditions with different microgrid topologies and components to establish a new direction in the sense-actuate-compute cycle for power electronic dominated grids and microgrids.

Foresighted robot navigation in dynamic indoor environments with cost-efficient hardware necessitates the use of a lightweight yet dependable controller. So inferring the scene dynamics from sensor readings without explicit object tracking is a pivotal aspect of foresighted navigation among pedestrians. In this paper, we introduce a spatiotemporal attention pipeline for enhanced navigation based on 2D~lidar sensor readings. This pipeline is complemented by a novel lidar-state representation that emphasizes dynamic obstacles over static ones. Subsequently, the attention mechanism enables selective scene perception across both space and time, resulting in improved overall navigation performance within dynamic scenarios. We thoroughly evaluated the approach in different scenarios and simulators, finding excellent generalization to unseen environments. The results demonstrate outstanding performance compared to state-of-the-art methods, thereby enabling the seamless deployment of the learned controller on a real robot.

Massive grant-free transmission and cell-free wireless communication systems have emerged as pivotal enablers for massive machine-type communication. This paper proposes a deep-unfolding-based joint activity and data detection (DU-JAD) algorithm for massive grant-free transmission in cell-free systems. We first formulate a joint activity and data detection optimization problem, which we solve approximately using forward-backward splitting (FBS). We then apply deep unfolding to FBS to optimize algorithm parameters using machine learning. In order to improve data detection (DD) performance, reduce algorithm complexity, and enhance active user detection (AUD), we employ a momentum strategy, an approximate posterior mean estimator, and a novel soft-output AUD module, respectively. Simulation results confirm the efficacy of DU-JAD for AUD and DD.

Graph neural networks (GNNs) is widely used to learn a powerful representation of graph-structured data. Recent work demonstrates that transferring knowledge from self-supervised tasks to downstream tasks could further improve graph representation. However, there is an inherent gap between self-supervised tasks and downstream tasks in terms of optimization objective and training data. Conventional pre-training methods may be not effective enough on knowledge transfer since they do not make any adaptation for downstream tasks. To solve such problems, we propose a new transfer learning paradigm on GNNs which could effectively leverage self-supervised tasks as auxiliary tasks to help the target task. Our methods would adaptively select and combine different auxiliary tasks with the target task in the fine-tuning stage. We design an adaptive auxiliary loss weighting model to learn the weights of auxiliary tasks by quantifying the consistency between auxiliary tasks and the target task. In addition, we learn the weighting model through meta-learning. Our methods can be applied to various transfer learning approaches, it performs well not only in multi-task learning but also in pre-training and fine-tuning. Comprehensive experiments on multiple downstream tasks demonstrate that the proposed methods can effectively combine auxiliary tasks with the target task and significantly improve the performance compared to state-of-the-art methods.
