With the rise of bandwidth-intensive applications, such as video streaming and cloud services, efficient routing decision networks have become increasingly important. Bandwidth allocation issues arise from various causes. This paper examines the Bandwidth Starvation Problem (BSP), where routing decisions that insufficiently account for low-demand flows hinder high-demand flows. Current Reinforcement Learning (RL)-based hop-by-hop routing methods overlook bandwidth demand factors, worsening the BSP. We propose a bandwidth demand-oriented reward function and a Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) framework to address this challenge. Experiments on Topology Zoo topologies demonstrate proposed approach enhances throughput, utilization, and maximum service capacity over existing methods.
随着视频流和云服务等带宽密集型应用的兴起,高效的路由决策网络变得越来越重要。带宽分配问题由各种原因引起。本文研究了带宽饥饿问题(BSP),其中路由决策不能充分考虑低需求流会阻碍高需求流。目前基于强化学习(RL)的逐跳路由方法忽略了带宽需求因素,使BSP恶化。我们提出了一个带宽需求导向的奖励函数和一个深度强化学习(DRL)框架来解决这一挑战。在拓扑动物园拓扑上的实验表明,该方法比现有方法提高了吞吐量、利用率和最大服务容量。

Fall accidents are increasing, and monitoring them using real-time CCTV systems remains challenging. This paper compares the performance of YOLOv11 and RT-DETRv2 models for real-time fall detection. Experimental results show that YOLOv11 outperforms RT-DETRv2 in terms of inference speed, making it more suitable for real-time applications. Unlike earlier studies, we propose feature map-based knowledge distillation during the model training process to improve model performance. The proposed YOLO-based fall detection system transfers intermediate representations from a teacher to a student network and optimises two complementary objectives: spatial alignment via Mean-Squared-Error (MSE) loss and channel-wise distribution alignment via Kullback–Leibler (KL) divergence. Experiments improved the mean Average Precision (mAP) and reduced processing time by 0.8ms. Evaluation on AI-hub abnormal behavior datasets confirmed a 0.02 increase in accuracy and F1-score, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed distillation method in real-time environments.
坠落事故正在增加,使用实时闭路电视系统进行监控仍然具有挑战性。本文比较了YOLOv11模型和RT-DETRv2模型在实时跌倒检测中的性能。实验结果表明,YOLOv11在推理速度上优于RT-DETRv2,更适合于实时应用。与之前的研究不同,我们在模型训练过程中提出了基于特征图的知识蒸馏,以提高模型的性能。提出的基于ylo的跌倒检测系统将中间表征从教师转移到学生网络,并优化两个互补目标:通过均方误差(MSE)损失进行空间对齐和通过Kullback-Leibler (KL)散度进行信道分布对齐。实验提高了平均精度(mAP),缩短了处理时间0.8ms。对AI-hub异常行为数据集的评估证实,准确度和f1分数提高了0.02,证明了所提出的蒸馏方法在实时环境中的有效性。

The rapid growth of short video platforms, along with advances in big data and the Internet of Things (IoT), has significantly increased the volume of data being generated, providing a strong foundation for the development of artificial intelligence (AI). Among AI technologies, deep learning based on neural networks has achieved notable success in fields such as speech recognition, natural language processing, and image analysis. However, as these models become more complex, traditional hardware architectures face growing limitations. The slowdown of Moore's Law and increasing concerns about power consumption highlight the urgent need for more efficient hardware solutions. In resource-constrained environments like real-time and edge computing, achieving a balance between performance, power, and latency is especially important. This review addresses these challenges through three main contributions: (1) it categorizes and analyzes key optimization techniques at both the algorithm and hardware levels, offering a clear theoretical framework; (2) it summarizes recent advancements in accelerator design, with a focus on technologies such as collaborative acceleration and in-memory computing; and (3) it explores future trends and challenges, offering insights into the evolution of neural network accelerators and potential solutions to emerging technical bottlenecks.

The emerging Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) architecture enables real-time processing and monitoring of medical information. Its growing applications expose it to sophisticated cyber threats. Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) have therefore become indispensable in ensuring confidentiality, integrity, and regulatory compliance. Existing surveys address the security issues, but they lack dataset analysis and integration of emerging approaches. This review presents a systematic review that classifies IoMT-IDSs across deployment strategies, response mechanisms, and evaluation metrics. We develop a multi-dimensional taxonomy that highlights the gaps and outlines a roadmap with federated IDS, blockchain validation, and explainable AI for secure healthcare.

This study proposes an energy-efficient framework for non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) integrating a low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-mounted reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), and a terrestrial user. The framework jointly optimizes the UAV’s 3D trajectory, satellite beamforming vectors, and RIS reflection coefficients to maximize energy efficiency (EE), accounting for UAV propulsion energy consumption and Quality of Service (QoS) constraints. The resulting non-convex fractional problem is solved using a low-complexity iterative algorithm combining successive convex approximation (SCA) and second-order cone programming (SOCP). Simulation results reveal up to 35% EE improvement over baseline schemes, highlighting the framework’s scalability and practicality for sustainable NTN systems.

This paper presents a real-time vehicle detection and tracking system using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) to address challenges in dynamic urban environments. The system combines a convolutional neural network (CNN) for vehicle detection with a deep Q-network (DQN)-based navigation policy for continuous tracking. Input images are enhanced using contrast limited adaptive histogram equalization (CLAHE) and unsharp masking. The CNN jointly predicts vehicle center coordinates and probabilistic heatmaps, while a self-attention module captures long-range spatial dependencies to improve detection under clutter and occlusion. The DQN is trained on multi-step spatiotemporal states to learn optimal UAV movement strategies under diverse weather and structural conditions. Experiments conducted in a three-dimensional (3D) urban simulation environment using Unity’s machine learning agents (ML-Agents) show that the self-attention design reduced pixel-level localization error by about 7%, and the DQN-based tracking policy achieved stable convergence after approximately 2000–3000 episodes. These results demonstrate high tracking accuracy and system stability, highlighting the potential of the proposed approach for real-world UAV-based traffic monitoring applications.

Integration of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) generates a revolutionary paradigm for next-generation wireless communications, particularly in IoT and 6G applications. UAVs provide adaptable and versatile deployment options; yet, they encounter obstacles including signal degradation, restricted Line-of-Sight (LoS), and computing limitations. RIS technology mitigates these constraints by rearranging the wireless propagation environment to improve signal quality, energy efficiency, and connection dependability. This survey offers a detailed examination of RIS-assisted UAV communication systems, addressing system models, channel characteristics, and essential performance metrics including SNR, BER, and outage probability. We further investigate control schemes utilising deep reinforcement and federated learning for real-time trajectory optimisation and reconfigurable intelligent surface phase adjustment. This study presents the novel notion of multi-edge cooperative frameworks alongside classical designs, wherein UAVs delegate demanding tasks – such as trajectory planning and channel estimation – to proximate edge servers, including mobile base stations or other UAVs. These architectures provide diminished latency, enhanced scalability, and immediate flexibility. The paper also discusses outstanding issues in physical-layer security, edge coordination, and deployment complexity. This study establishes a standard for creating resilient, intelligent, and scalable RIS-UAV communication systems that meet the requirements of future smart cities and critical mission settings.
可重构智能表面(RIS)与无人机(uav)的集成为下一代无线通信,特别是在物联网和6G应用中,创造了革命性的范例。无人机提供适应性强和多用途的部署选项;然而,它们遇到的障碍包括信号退化、受限的视距(LoS)和计算限制。RIS技术通过重新安排无线传播环境来改善信号质量、能源效率和连接可靠性,从而减轻了这些限制。该调查提供了ris辅助无人机通信系统、寻址系统模型、信道特性和基本性能指标(包括信噪比、误码率和中断概率)的详细检查。我们进一步研究了利用深度强化和联邦学习进行实时轨迹优化和可重构智能表面相位调整的控制方案。本研究提出了与经典设计相结合的多边缘协作框架的新概念,其中无人机将要求苛刻的任务(如轨迹规划和信道估计)委托给近距边缘服务器,包括移动基站或其他无人机。这些体系结构减少了延迟、增强了可伸缩性和即时灵活性。本文还讨论了物理层安全、边缘协调和部署复杂性方面的突出问题。该研究为创建弹性、智能和可扩展的RIS-UAV通信系统建立了标准,以满足未来智慧城市和关键任务设置的要求。

The rise of wireless devices makes interference a key challenge for reliable communication in dense spectrum-sharing networks. This paper proposes a graph neural network (GNN)-based power control algorithm to minimize the worst-case outage probability by using statistical channel state information (CSI), i.e., position information. By representing the network as a fully connected directed graph with node and edge features derived from transceiver positions, the GNN employs message-passing layers to aggregate interference patterns and infer near-optimal transmit powers. Simulation results demonstrate the scalability and generalization capability of the proposed method, confirming its suitability for real-time deployment in large-scale wireless systems.

We propose an efficient RGBW remosaicing algorithm that converts RGBW images into Bayer images using learned kernel-based local interpolation and global residual learning. First, the proposed algorithm extracts local and global features from an input RGBW image. Then, we develop a learned kernel-based interpolation module to generate an intermediate Bayer image using the local features. Next, the proposed algorithm generates a residual image containing complementary information. Finally, we obtain the reconstructed Bayer image by refining the intermediate Bayer image with the residual image. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm significantly outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms.
