AgentSME for Simulating Diverse Communication Modes in Smart Education
Generative agent models specifically tailored for smart education are critical, yet remain relatively underdeveloped. A key challenge stems from the inherent complexity of educational contexts: learners are human beings with various cognitive behaviors, and pedagogy is fundamentally centered on personalized human-to-human communication. To address this issue, this paper proposes AgentSME, a unified generative agent framework powered by LLM. Three directional communication modes are considered i…

Dual-Function Radar-Communication Beamforming with Outage Probability Metric
The integrated design of communication and sensing may offer a potential solution to address spectrum congestion. In this work, we develop a beamforming method for a dual-function radar-communication system, where the transmit signal is used for both radar surveillance and communication with multiple downlink users, despite imperfect channel state information (CSI). We focus on two scenarios of interest: radar-centric and communication-centric. In the radar-centric scenario, the primary goal is…

Levels of close reading of an artwork:
1️⃣ This is a brushstroke.
2️⃣ What did the artist mean to communicate by placing this brushstroke?
3️⃣ Actually, I think that's just a stain from a coffee mug.

Verwechslungsgefahr: Apple verklagt US-Kinokette "Apple Cinemas"
Die "Apple Cinemas" mit Apfellogo sind Apple ein Dorn im Auge. Nutzer seien davon verwirrt und lausige Kinosäle könnten die Marke schädigen, so Apples Vorwurf.

Dr Turing's Imitation Game makes a sort of sad sense as a closeted gay intellectual, trying to find his people through writing letters
So, in an environment where all money decisions are made through digital communication artifacts ("pitch decks" and "presentation to the VCs")
…it makes a similar sort of sad sense that "being able to imitate digital communication artifacts" is the *only* measure of "intelligence" that matters

Joint Communication and Indoor Positioning Based on Visible Light in the Presence of Dimming
This paper proposes a joint communication and indoor positioning (JCP) system based on visible light communication (VLC) designed for high-precision indoor environments. The framework supports 2D and 3D positioning using received signal strength (RSS) from pilot transmissions, enhanced by the radical axis theorem to improve accuracy under measurement uncertainties. Communication is achieved using spatial modulation (SM) with M-ary pulse amplitude modulation (PAM), where data is conveyed through…

Federated Learning with Feature Reconstruction for Vector Quantization based Semantic Communication
Recent advancements in semantic communication have primarily focused on image transmission, where neural network (NN)-based joint source-channel coding (JSCC) modules play a central role. However, such systems often experience semantic communication errors due to mismatched knowledge bases between users and performance degradation from outdated models, necessitating regular model updates. To address these challenges in vector quantization (VQ)-based image semantic communication systems, we prop…

Energy Efficient Fluid Antenna Relay (FAR)-Assisted Wireless Communications
In this paper, we propose an energy efficient wireless communication system based on fluid antenna relay (FAR) to solve the problem of non-line-of-sight (NLoS) links caused by blockages with considering the physical properties. Driven by the demand for the sixth generation (6G) communication, fluid antenna systems (FASs) have become a key technology due to their flexibility in dynamically adjusting antenna positions. Existing research on FAS primarily focuses on line-of-sight (LoS) communicatio…
