A new method for reducing 5G overlapping coverage of urban grid roads by Yejiang ZHANG, Jie CHEN, Yi LIU, Xingzheng LI, Fuyang LI, Jian HU

“…The 5G network for urban grid road scenes has entered a new stage of refined operation and maintenance.The main contradiction has also shifted from insufficient coverage to severe overlapping coverage of some road sections.5G overlapping coverage will have a significant impact on users’ basic services such as internet access and voice.The optimization of traditional road overlapping coverage has many problems, such as inconsistent standards, recurring problems, and low work efficiency.The concept of overlapping coverage contribution was proposed, and an algorithm for root cause analysis of overlapping coverage was designed based on expert experience.An IT platform for optimizing overlapping coverage problems was also developed.The practice has proven that this method can effectively reduce the 5G overlapping coverage rate of urban grid roads, help enterprises save network optimization costs, and truly achieve the goal of cost reduction and efficiency increase.…”

Au cœur de la mort : faire science avec les défunts by Marc-Antoine Berthod

“…Ever since the founding of anthropology as a discipline, the theme of death has nourished an abundant literature that puts into perspective the ways in which communities construct boundaries between the living and the dead: how they define intervals between the two categories while designating places reserved for the deceased. In this text, we first discuss how these boundaries and their transgressions have been considered by cultural and social anthropologists. …”

Research and implementation of reputation-based inter-domain routing selection mechanism by Shiqi ZHAO, Xiaohong HUANG, Zhigang ZHONG

“…To solve the problem of lack of validation for exchanging messages in BGP, a inter-domain routing mechanism, which consisted of a reputation evaluation mechanism and a reputation-based BGP optimal routing algorithm, was proposed.The reputation evaluation mechanism used a distributed autonomous system (AS) alliance architecture, which divided node routing behavior in detail.The service domain and observation weight were used as indicators to quantify the impact of node behavior.By designing a feedback mechanism, the reputation value not only reflected the good and bad of nodes, but also reflected the node’s resistance to malicious attacks.The reputation-based BGP routing selection algorithm adds a “security” policy to the existing routing selection algorithm by filtering routes containing low-reputation nodes and selecting the best route among high reputation routes.The experimental results show that the proposed mechanism outperform most existing reputation mechanisms by avoiding routes with vulnerable nodes and restraining the propagation of illegal routes, thereby providing a more secure inter-domain routing environment.…”

Chinese semantic and phonological information-based text proofreading model for speech recognition by Meiyu ZHONG, Peiliang WU, Yan DOU, Yi LIU, Lingfu KONG

“…To study the influence of Chinese Pinyin on detecting and correcting text errors in speech recognition, a text proofreading model based on Chinese semantic and phonological information was proposed.Five Pinyin coding methods were designed to construct the character-Pinyin embedding vector that was employed as the input of the Seq2Seq model based on gated recurrent unit.At the same time, the attention mechanism was adopted to extract the Chinese semantic and phonological information of sentences to correct speech recognition errors.Aiming at the problem of insufficient labeled corpus, a data augmentation method was introduced, which could automatically obtain annotated corpora by exchanging the initials or finals of Chinese Pinyin.The experimental results on AISHELL-3’s public data show that phonological information is conducive to the text proofreading model to detect and correct text errors after speech recognition, and the proposed data augmentation method can improve the error detection performance of the model.…”

Sequential image deep learning-based Wi-Fi human activity recognition method by Qizhen ZHOU, Jianchun XING, Qiliang YANG, Deshuai HAN

“…For the problems existing in most of the researches,such as weak anti-noise ability,incompatible signal size and insufficient feature extraction of deep-learning-based Wi-Fi human activity recognition,a kind of sequential image deep learning-based recognition method was proposed.Based on the idea of sequential image deep learning,a series of image frames were reconstructed from time-varied Wi-Fi signal to ensure the consistency of input size.In addition,a low-rank decomposition method was innovatively designed to separate low-rank activity information merged in noises.Finally,a deep model combining temporal stream and spatial stream was proposed to automatically capture the spatiotemporal features from length-varied image sequences.The proposed method was extensively tested in WiAR dataset and self collected dataset.The experimental results show the proposed method could achieve the accuracy of 0.94 and 0.96,which indicate its high-accuracy performance and robustness in pervasive environments.…”

Client grouping and time-sharing scheduling for asynchronous federated learning in heterogeneous edge computing environment by Qianpiao MA, Qingmin JIA, Jianchun LIU, Hongli XU, Renchao XIE, Tao HUANG

“…., edge heterogeneity, data Non-IID, and communication resource constraints, a grouping asynchronous federated learning (FedGA) mechanism was proposed.Edge nodes were divided into multiple groups, each of which performed global updated asynchronously with the global model, while edge nodes within a group communicate with the parameter server through time-sharing communication.Theoretical analysis established a quantitative relationship between the convergence bound of FedGA and the data distribution among the groups.A time-sharing scheduling magic mirror method (MMM) was proposed to optimize the completion time of a single round of model updating within a group.Based on both the theoretical analysis for FedGA and MMM, an effective grouping algorithm was designed for minimizing the overall training completion time.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed FedGA and MMM can reduce model training time by 30.1%～87.4% compared to the existing state-of-the-art methods.…”
