Title: A Novel Multiple Access Scheme for Visible Light Communication Networks in 6G

Abstract: As 5G networks are being rolled out in many different countries nowadays, the time has come to investigate how to upgrade and expand them toward 6G, where the latter is expected to realize the interconnection of everything as well as the development of a ubiquitous intelligent mobile world for intelligent life. To enable this epic leap in communications, this article provides an overview and outlook on the application of sparse code multiple access (SCMA) for 6G wireless communication systems, which is an emerging disruptive non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) scheme for the enabling of massive connectivity. We propose to apply SCMA to a massively distributed access system whose architecture is based on fiber-based visible light communication, ultra-dense networks, and NOMA. Under this framework, we consider the interactions between optical fronthauls and wireless access links. In order to stimulate more upcoming research in this area, we outline a number of promising directions associated with SCMA for faster, more reliable, and more efficient multiple access in future 6G communication networks.

Title: Resource Optimization for Scalable Video Coding Multicast in UAV-assisted Radio-Access Networks

Abstract: A joint resource-optimization scheme is investigated for nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA)-enhanced scalable video coding (SVC) multicast in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-assisted radio-access networks (RANs). This scheme allows a ground base station and UAVs to simultaneously multicast successive video layers in SVC with successive interference cancellation in NOMA. A video quality-maximization problem is formulated as a mixedinteger nonlinear programming problem to determine the UAV deployment and association, RAN spectrum allocation for multicast groups, and UAV transmit power. The optimization problem is decoupled into the UAV deployment–association, spectrum-partition, and UAV transmit-power–control subproblems. A heuristic strategy is designed to determine the UAV deployment and association patterns. An upgraded knapsack algorithm is developed to solve spectrum partition, followed by fast UAV power fine-tuning to further boost the performance. The simulation results confirm that the proposed scheme improves the average peak signal-to-noise ratio, aggregate videoreception rate, and spectrum utilization over various baselines.

Title: Digital twins for image and video analysis of granular media

Abstract: Granular media are widely used in many industrial applications and fields of science from physics to chemistry, biology or agronomy. In energy, power and chemical engineering systems, in particular, it is generally desired to extract information on geometrical characteristics and on spatial distribution from 2D images of the population of particles/grains involved in the process for a better control and optimization. For example in pharmaceutics, the size and the shape of crystals of active ingredients are known to have a considerable impact on the final quality of products, such as drugs.  As another example, the performance of fuel cells (SOFC/SOEC) is mainly related to the electrode microstructure (size and spatial distribution of the solid and porous phase).The purpose of this talk is then to show different ways (deterministic and stochastic methods using digital twins) of image processing, analysis and modeling to geometrically characterize such granular media from 2-D or 3-D images/videos. The developed methods will be presented by addressing different issues: overlapping, projection, blur... The methods are mainly based on image enhancement, restoration, segmentation, tracking, modeling, feature detection, stereology, stochastic geometry, pattern recognition and machine learning.The methods will be particularly illustrated on real applications of crystallization processes (for pharmaceutics industry), multiphase flow processes (for nuclear industry) and fuel cell power systems (for energy industry).

Research field:

Title: Neuroscience-inspired neuromorphic intelligence

Abstract: In recent years, with the rapid development of artificial intelligence, it has become an important research hotspot in both academic and Internet fields. Although the emergence of deep learning and big data in recent years makes artificial intelligence surpass human beings in some tasks, it is powerless to deal with complex problems that human brain can deal with. At the same time, it needs a lot of computing resources and data resources as support. Brain like computing is a new brain inspired computing model, which is expected to break through the constraints of traditional computing framework and realize high-performance and strong cognitive computing
