The neural-enhanced video streaming (NeVS) has been an emerging technique to integrate neural models into video codecs for higher streaming efficiency. The state-of-the-art methods, e.g., DeNC and Gemino, typically compress videos in RGB space and restore video quality via a neural enhancement model
Recently, the spiking neural networks (SNNs) have shown great promise in enhancing AI task performance by utilizing the brain-inspired and energy-efficient computational paradigm via the binary (0/1) spikes. Modern SNNs, especially those based on transformers, often require FPGA accelerators or neur…
Recent years have witnessed the rise of Neural-enhanced Video Streaming (NeVS), which integrates neural restoration models into video codecs for higher compression-restoration performance. Despite its benefit, existing work has not well explored the full potential of NeVS paradigm, due to: (1) post-…
Perturbation-based mechanisms, such as differential privacy, mitigate gradient leakage attacks by introducing noise into the gradients, thereby preventing attackers from reconstructing clients' private data from the leaked gradients. However, can gradient perturbation protection mechanisms truly def…
The explosive growth of video traffic on today's Internet promotes the rise of Neural-enhanced Video Streaming (NeVS), which effectively improves the rate-distortion trade-off by employing a cheap neural super-resolution model for quality enhancement on the receiver side. Missing by existing work, w…
This paper provides a novel parsimonious yet efficient design for zero-shot learning (ZSL), dubbed ParsNets, in which we are interested in learning a composition of on-device friendly linear networks, each with orthogonality and low-rankness properties, to achieve equivalent or better performance ag…
Zero-shot learning (ZSL) is an extreme case of transfer learning that aims to recognize samples (e.g., images) of unseen classes relying on a train-set covering only seen classes and a set of auxiliary knowledge (e.g., semantic descriptors). Existing methods usually resort to constructing a visual-t…
Real-time video perception tasks are often challenging over the resource-constrained edge devices due to the concerns of accuracy drop and hardware overhead, where saving computations is the key to performance improvement. Existing methods either rely on domain-specific neural chips or priorly searc…
It witnesses that the collaborative learning (CL) systems often face the performance bottleneck of limited bandwidth, where multiple low-end devices continuously generate data and transmit intermediate features to the cloud for incremental training. To this end, improving the communication efficienc…
