Federated learning (FL) enables distributed model training, yet in heterogeneous deployments, Bandwidth-Constrained Clients (BCCs) often contribute inefficiently due to limited uplink bandwidth. In model-heterogeneous FL with fixed small sub-models, BCCs with sub-models may improve quickly in early …
While recent Large Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) exhibit impressive multimodal reasoning abilities, they often produce ungrounded, hallucinated responses by over-relying on linguistic priors rather than visual evidence. This critical limitation arises from the lack of a quantitative measure of how
Recent advances in semantic communication (SC) have introduced neural network (NN)-based transceivers that convey semantic representation (SR) of signals such as images. However, these NNs are trained over diverse image distributions and thus often fail to reconstruct fine-grained image-specific det…
Real-world graph signals are inherently time-varying and evolve smoothly, making the characterization of such data challenging. We propose a novel approach for reconstructing missing time-varying graph data by leveraging the assumption that the latent variable responsible for generating this data ev…
By integrating recent advances in large language models (LLMs) and generative models into the emerging semantic communication (SC) paradigm, in this article we put forward to a novel framework of language-oriented semantic communication (LSC). In LSC, machines communicate using human language messag…
Although quantum supremacy is yet to come, there has recently been an increasing interest in identifying the potential of quantum machine learning (QML) in the looming era of practical quantum computing. Motivated by this, in this article we re-design multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) based…
Knowledge distillation (KD) has enabled remarkable progress in model compression and knowledge transfer. However, KD requires a large volume of original data or their representation statistics that are not usually available in practice. Data-free KD has recently been proposed to resolve this problem…
In this paper, we propose a communication-efficient decen-tralized machine learning (ML) algorithm, coined quantized group ADMM (Q-GADMM). Every worker in Q-GADMM communicates only with two neighbors, and updates its model via the group alternating direct method of multiplier (GADMM), thereby ensuri…
