    May 11, 2021: Dr. Ngo Khac Hoang (Univ. Paris-Saclay, France), Massive Uncoordinated Random Access for the Internet of Things

    Under the paradigm of the Internet of Things (IoT), a major challenge in next-generation wireless networks is to serve a very large number of connected devices. IoT devices are mostly battery limited and transmit short packets in a sporadic and uncoordinated manner. This calls for new theoretical frameworks that help to understand the fundamental limits of massive random access and provide guidelines for redesigning the medium access layer. To this end, a novel formulation for the massive uncoordinated access problem was proposed in 2017 by Yury Polyanskiy, where it is assumed that all users employ a common codebook, and decoding is done up to a permutation of messages. In this talk, we will introduce this appealing formulation and present recent results in the following-up line of research. We will also present our result in extending this formulation to a more practically relevant setting where the number of active users is random and unknown.

    May 16, 2024: TECHNICAL MEETING, Prof. Maarten De Vos (Departments of Engineering and Medicine, KU Leuven, Belgium), AI in healthcare: turning the hype into a help

    AI is everywhere, and has the potential to disrupt also healthcare. However, particular challenges related to healthcare applications need to be addressed. Those are exciting times being at the intersection of AI and healthcare. The impact of AI in healthcare will only grow, and we are here at the right time to also unlock the […]

    February 2, 2024: Dr. Khoa D. Doan (Vin Univeristy) Toward Reliable and Practical Machine Learning Applications

    While Machine Learning (ML) has rapidly transformed several domains and applications with incredible successes, there are also important areas where the progress is significantly slower. Specifically, there exists a widened complexity gap between the methods currently investigated in research and those used in practice in these areas. One reason is that many algorithms, despite achieving […]
