|abstract=LoRa and its enabled LoRa wide-area network (LoRaWAN) have been seen as an important part of the next-generation network for massive Internet-of-Things (IoT). Due to LoRa's low-power and long-range nature, LoRa signals are much weaker than the noise floor, particularly in complex urban or semi-indoor environments. Therefore, weak signal decoding is critical to achieve the desired wide-area coverage in general. Existing work has shown the advantages of exploring deep neural networks (DNN) for weak signal decoding. However, the existing single-gateway based DNN decoder is hard to fully leverage the spatial information in multi-gateway scenarios. In this paper, we propose SRLoRa, an efficient DNN LoRa decoder that fully utilizes the spatial information from multiple gateways to decode extremely weak LoRa signals. Specifically, we design interleaving denoising and merging layers to improve signal quality at ultra-low SNR. We develop efficient merging on feature maps extracted by denoising DNNs to tolerate time misalignments among different signals. We define max and min operations in the merging layer to efficiently extract salient features and reduce noise, merging the features extracted from multiple gateways to guide future DNN layers to gradually improve signal quality. We implement SRLoRa with USPR N210 and commercial LoRa nodes and evaluate its performance indoors and outdoors. The results show that with four gateways, SRLoRa achieves SNR gain at 4.53--4.82 dB, which is 2.51× of Charm, leading to a 1.84× coverage area compared to standard LoRa in an urban deployment.
|abstract = Code translation is a crucial activity in the software development and maintenance process, and researchers have recently begun to focus on using pre-trained large language models (LLMs) for code translation. However, existing LLMs only learn the contextual semantics of code during pre-training, neglecting executability information closely related to the execution state of the code, which results in unguaranteed code executability and unreliable automated code translation. To address this issue, we propose ExeCoder, an LLM specifically designed for code translation, aimed at utilizing executability representations such as functional semantics, syntax structures, and variable dependencies to enhance the capabilities of LLMs in code translation. To evaluate the effectiveness of ExeCoder, we manually enhanced the widely used benchmark TransCoder-test, resulting in a benchmark called TransCoder-test-X that serves LLMs. Evaluation of TransCoder-test-X indicates that ExeCoder achieves state-of-the-art performance in code translation, surpassing existing open-source code LLMs by over 10.88% to 38.78% and over 27.44% to 42.97% on two metrics, and even outperforms the renowned closed-source LLM GPT-4o.

|abstract=Various interconnected Internet of Things (IoT) devices have emerged, led by the intelligence of the IoT, to realize exceptional interaction with the physical world. In this context, UAV swarm-enabled Multiple Targets Tracking (UAV-MTT), which can sense and track mobile targets for many applications such as hit-and-run, is an appealing topic. Unfortunately, UAVs cannot implement real-time MTT based on the traditional centralized pattern due to the complicated road network environment. It is also challenging to realize low-overhead UAV swarm cooperation in a distributed architecture for the real-time MTT. To address the problem, we propose a cyber-twin-based distributed tracking algorithm to update and optimize a trained digital model for real-time MTT. We then design a distributed cooperative tracking framework to promote MTT performance. In the design, both short-distance and long-distance distributed tracking cooperation manners are first realized with low energy consumption in communication by integrating resources of sensing and communication. Resource integration promotes target sensing efficiency with a highly successful tracking ratio as well. Theoretical derivation proves our algorithmic convergence. Hardware-in-the-loop simulation results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm can remarkably save 65.7% energy consumption in communication compared to other benchmarks while efficiently promoting 20.0% sensing performance.
|abstract =Imitation learning from human demonstrations has shown impressive performance in robotics. However, most results focus on table-top manipulation, lacking the mobility and dexterity necessary for generally useful tasks. In this work, we develop a system for imitating mobile manipulation tasks that are bimanual and require whole-body control. We first present Mobile ALOHA, a low-cost and whole-body teleoperation system for data collection. It augments the ALOHA system with a mobile base, and a whole-body teleoperation interface. Using data collected with Mobile ALOHA, we then perform supervised behavior cloning and find that co-training with existing static ALOHA datasets boosts performance on mobile manipulation tasks. With 50 demonstrations for each task, co-training can increase success rates by up to 90%, allowing Mobile ALOHA to autonomously complete complex mobile manipulation tasks such as sauteing and serving a piece of shrimp, opening a two-door wall cabinet to store heavy cooking pots, calling and entering an elevator, and lightly rinsing a used pan using a kitchen faucet. We will open-source all the hardware and software implementations upon publication.

|abstract=This paper tries to answer a question: "Can we achieve spatial-selective transmission on IoT devices?" A positive answer would enable more secure data transmission among IoT devices. The challenge, however, is how to manipulate signal propagation without relying on beamforming antenna arrays which are usually unavailable on low-end IoT devices. We give an affirmative answer by introducing SpotSound, a novel acoustic communication system that exploits the diversity of multi-path indoors as a natural beamformer. By judiciously controlling the way how the information is embedded into the signal, SpotSound can make the signal decodable only when this signal propagates along a certain multipath channel. Since the multipath channel decorrelates rapidly over the distance between different receivers, Spot-Sound can ensure the signal is decodable only at the target position, achieving precise physical isolation. SpotSound is a purely software-based solution that can run on most IoT devices where speakers and microphones are widely used. We implement SpotSound on Raspberry Pi connected with COTS microphone and speaker. Experimental results show that SpotSound achieves a 0.25m2 location isolation.

|abstract=Video analytics pipelines have steadily shifted to edge deployments to reduce bandwidth overheads and privacy violations, but in doing so, face an ever-growing resource tension. Most notably, edge-box GPUs lack the memory needed to concurrently house the growing number of (increasingly complex) models for real-time inference. Unfortunately, existing solutions that rely on time/space sharing of GPU resources are insufficient as the required swapping delays result in unacceptable frame drops and accuracy loss. We present model merging, a new memory management technique that exploits architectural similarities between edge vision models by judiciously sharing their layers (including weights) to reduce workload memory costs and swapping delays. Our system, Gemel, efficiently integrates merging into existing pipelines by (1) leveraging several guiding observations about per-model memory usage and inter-layer dependencies to quickly identify fruitful and accuracy-preserving merging configurations, and (2) altering edge inference schedules to maximize merging benefits. Experiments across diverse workloads reveal that Gemel reduces memory usage by up to 60.7%, and improves overall accuracy by 8-39% relative to time or space sharing alone.
