Energy-Efficient Aerial STAR-RIS-Aided Computing Offloading and Content Caching for Wireless Sensor Networks by Xiaoping Yang, Quanzeng Wang, Bin Yang, Xiaofang Cao

“…Given the non-convex nature of this problem, we decompose it into a content caching decision subproblem, a computing offloading decision subproblem, a hovering position subproblem, and a STAR-RIS resource allocation subproblem. We propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)–successive convex approximation (SCA) combined algorithm to iteratively achieve near-optimal solutions with low complexity. …”

Temporal dependent rate-distortion optimization based on distortion backward propagation by Hongwei GUO, Ce ZHU, Xu YANG, Lei LUO

“…Rate-distortion optimization (RDO) is a crucial technique in block based hybrid video encoders.However, the widely used independent RDO is far from obtaining optimal coding performance.To improve the rate-distortion (R-D) performance of high efficiency video coding (HEVC), a temporal dependent RDO algorithm was proposed.Firstly, the formula to calculate temporal distortion propagation factor was derived by using an exponential R-D function.Then, the coding distortion and motion compensation predicted error were obtained by pre-encoding, and the temporal distortion propagation factor was estimated by using distortion backward propagation.Finally, the Lagrange multiplier and quantization parameter of coding tree unit were adaptively adjusted to optimize bit resources allocation.Experimental results show that compared with the original RDO method in HEVC under the low-delay configuration, the proposed algorithm achieves an average 4.4% bit rate reduction for all test sequences, and up to 13.0% bit rate reduction for test sequence BasketballDrill, at the same reconstructed video quality.…”
