Semantic Image Synthesis via Class-Adaptive Cross-Attention by Tomaso Fontanini, Claudio Ferrari, Giuseppe Lisanti, Massimo Bertozzi, Andrea Prati

“…By design, such layers learn pixel-wise modulation parameters to de-normalize the generator activations based on the semantic class each pixel belongs to. Thus, they tend to overlook global image statistics, ultimately leading to unconvincing local style editing and causing global inconsistencies such as color or illumination distribution shifts. …”

A STBC-BF Transmit Scheme in Massive MIMO System by Tao Kang, Jinlong Zhan

“…A STBC-BF transmit scheme in massive MIMO system was proposed.Firstly,the signal was space-time block coded,then passed into the eigen-beamformers,respectively.At the receiver,the space-time decoding was performed on two orthogonal beams.The diversity gain and beamforming gain can be obtained simultaneously.Both theory analysis and simulation results confirm the validity of the proposed scheme.…”
