Over-the-Air Semantic Alignment with Stacked Intelligent Metasurfaces

PositiveArtificial Intelligence

A new framework for over-the-air semantic alignment using stacked intelligent metasurfaces (SIM) has been introduced, aiming to enhance the performance of semantic communication systems by aligning latent representations directly in the wave domain. This approach significantly reduces the computational burden typically associated with existing methods that rely on additional digital processing at the transmitter or receiver.

Uncertainty-Aware Data-Efficient AI: An Information-Theoretic Perspective

NeutralArtificial Intelligence

A recent review paper discusses the challenges faced by artificial intelligence (AI) systems in data-limited contexts, particularly in fields like robotics, telecommunications, and healthcare. It highlights the concept of epistemic uncertainty, which arises from incomplete knowledge of data distributions, and explores methodologies for quantifying this uncertainty and enhancing predictive performance through synthetic data augmentation.
