Cong Shen Honored for Wireless Communications Research
Shen demonstrated a way to compress machine learning models held and exchanged through a wireless communications network.
Communication and networking by machine learning, for machine learning
LICAN focuses on advancing future communication and networking systems that are designed by, and support for, edge intelligence and machine learning. We believe that beyond 5G has created new challenges for communication theorists and practitioners to rethink the system designs, and we envision new tools from machine learning that can benefit this task. On the other hand, edge learning and, more broadly, machine intelligence represents a new “Quality of Service” for communication and networking, which poses new requirements and design challenges.
