|abstract = On-device Deep Neural Network (DNN) training has been recognized as crucial for privacy-preserving machine learning at the edge. However, the intensive training workload and limited onboard computing resources pose significant challenges to the availability and efficiency of model training. While existing works address these challenges through native resource management optimization, we instead leverage our observation that edge environments usually comprise a rich set of accompanying trusted edge devices with idle resources beyond a single terminal. We propose Asteroid, a distributed edge training system that breaks the resource walls across heterogeneous edge devices for efficient model training acceleration. Asteroid adopts a hybrid pipeline parallelism to orchestrate distributed training, along with a judicious parallelism planning for maximizing throughput under certain resource constraints. Furthermore, a fault-tolerant yet lightweight pipeline replay mechanism is developed to tame the device-level dynamics for training robustness and performance stability. We implement Asteroid on heterogeneous edge devices with both vision and language models, demonstrating up to 12.2× faster training than conventional parallelism methods and 2.1× faster than state-of-the-art hybrid parallelism methods through evaluations. Furthermore, Asteroid can recover training pipeline 14× faster than baseline methods while preserving comparable throughput despite unexpected device exiting and failure.

We propose a new paradigm, CACTUS, for scalable and efficient context-aware classification where a micro-classifier recognizes a small set of classes relevant to the current context and, when context change happens (e.g., a new class comes into the scene), rapidly switches to another suitable micro-classifier. CACTUS features several innovations, including optimizing the training cost of context-aware classifiers, enabling on-the-fly context-aware switching between classifiers, and balancing context switching costs and performance gains via simple yet effective switching policies. We show that CACTUS achieves significant benefits in accuracy, latency, and compute budget across a range of datasets and IoT platforms.

|abstract = The need for cooperation among intelligent edge devices has popularized cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) in multi-target coverage. However, many research efforts rely heavily on parameter sharing among homogeneous agents, which hampers coverage performance. The heterogeneity of computing and sensing capabilities, along with the time-varying dynamics of computing resources, pose significant challenges. To address these challenges, we propose a resource-sensitive multi-agent reinforcement learning framework based on heterogeneous edge devices (SmartHE). SmartHE decomposes the target coverage task into two hierarchical levels: 1) Executor-level task: A central coordinator assigns a subset of executors (i.e., cameras or agents) to execute action policies, aiming to minimize overall policy inference time and energy consumption by leveraging resource heterogeneity. 2) Target-level task: Each executor ignores irrelevant targets that fall outside the coverage radius of the executor based on the estimated target states and ignores redundant targets that could be more effectively covered by other executors based on the utility estimation. This enables each executor to focus on extracting features that optimize coverage. Through this dual-task framework, SmartHE efficiently improves the system performance.
|abstract = Nowadays, volumetric videos have emerged as an attractive multimedia application providing highly immersive watching experiences since viewers could adjust their viewports at 6 degrees-of-freedom. However, the point cloud frames composing the video are prohibitively large, and effective compression techniques should be developed. There are two classes of compression methods. One suggests exploiting the conventional video codecs (2D-based methods) and the other proposes to compress the points in 3D space directly (3D-based methods). Though the 3D-based methods feature fast coding speeds, their compression ratios are low since the failure of leveraging inter-frame redundancy. To resolve this problem, we design a patch-wise compression framework working in the 3D space.

    Abstract: Nowadays, volumetric videos have emerged as an attractive multimedia application providing highly immersive watching experiences since viewers could adjust their viewports at 6 degrees-of-freedom. However, the point cloud frames composing the video are prohibitively large, and effective compression techniques should be developed. There are two classes of compression methods. One suggests exploiting the conventional video codecs (2D-based methods) and the other proposes to compress the points in 3D space directly (3D-based methods). Though the 3D-based methods feature fast coding speeds, their compression ratios are low since the failure of leveraging inter-frame redundancy. To resolve this problem, we design a patch-wise compression framework working in the 3D space. Specifically, we search rigid moves of patches via the iterative closest point algorithm and construct a common geometric structure, which is followed by color compensation. We implement our decoder on a GPU platform so that real-time decoding and rendering are realized. We compare our method with GROOT, the state-of-the-art 3D-based compression method, and it reduces the bitrate by up to 5.98×. Moreover, by trimming invisible content, our scheme achieves comparable bandwidth demand of V-PCC, the representative 2D-based method, in FoV-adaptive streaming.
