|abstract = Recently, smart roadside infrastructure (SRI) has demonstrated the potential of achieving fully autonomous driving systems. To explore the potential of infrastructure-assisted autonomous driving, this paper presents the design and deployment of Soar, the first end-to-end SRI system specifically designed to support autonomous driving systems. Soar consists of both software and hardware components carefully designed to overcome various system and physical challenges. Soar can leverage the existing operational infrastructure like street lampposts for a lower barrier of adoption. Soar adopts a new communication architecture that comprises a bi-directional multi-hop I2I network and a downlink I2V broadcast service, which are designed based on off-the-shelf 802.11ac interfaces in an integrated manner. Soar also features a hierarchical DL task management framework to achieve desirable load balancing among nodes and enable them to collaborate efficiently to run multiple data-intensive autonomous driving applications. We deployed a total of 18 Soar nodes on existing lampposts on campus, which have been operational for over two years. Our real-world evaluation shows that Soar can support a diverse set of autonomous driving applications and achieve desirable real-time performance and high communication reliability. Our findings and experiences in this work offer key insights into the development and deployment of next-generation smart roadside infrastructure and autonomous driving systems.
|abstract = While existing strategies to execute deep learning-based classification on low-power platforms assume the models are trained on all classes of interest, this paper posits that adopting context-awareness i.e. narrowing down a classification task to the current deployment context consisting of only recent inference queries can substantially enhance performance in resource-constrained environments. 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 = GPUs are increasingly utilized for running DNN tasks on emerging mobile edge devices. Beyond accelerating single task inference, their value is also particularly apparent in efficiently executing multiple DNN tasks, which often have strict latency requirements in applications. Preemption is the main technology to ensure multitasking timeliness, but mobile edges primarily offer two priorities for task queues, and existing methods thus achieve only coarse-grained preemption by categorizing DNNs into real-time and best-effort, permitting a real-time task to preempt best-effort ones. However, the efficacy diminishes significantly when other real-time tasks run concurrently, but this is already common in mobile edge applications. Due to different hardware characteristics, solutions from other platforms are unsuitable. For instance, GPUs on traditional mobile devices primarily assist CPU processing and lack special preemption support, mainly following FIFO in GPU scheduling. Clouds handle concurrent task execution, but focus on allocating one or more GPUs per complex model, whereas on mobile edges, DNNs mainly vie for one GPU. This paper introduces Pantheon, designed to offer fine-grained preemption, enabling real-time tasks to preempt each other and best-effort tasks. Our key observation is that the two-tier GPU stream priorities, while underexplored, are sufficient. Efficient preemption can be realized through software design by innovative scheduling and novel exploitation of the nested redundancy principle for DNN models. Evaluation on a diverse set of DNNs shows substantial improvements in deadline miss rate and accuracy of Pantheon over state-of-the-art methods.

    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.
