Convolutional Radio Modulation Recognition Networks
We study the adaptation of convolutional neural networks to the complex
temporal radio signal domain. We compare the efficacy of radio modulation
classification using naively learned features against using expert features
which are widely used in the field today and we show significant performance
improvements. We show that blind temporal learning on large and densely encoded
time series using deep convolutional neural networks is viable and a strong
candidate approach for this task especially at low signal to noise ratio
Many Task Learning with Task Routing
Typical multi-task learning (MTL) methods rely on architectural adjustments
and a large trainable parameter set to jointly optimize over several tasks.
However, when the number of tasks increases so do the complexity of the
architectural adjustments and resource requirements. In this paper, we
introduce a method which applies a conditional feature-wise transformation over
the convolutional activations that enables a model to successfully perform a
large number of tasks. To distinguish from regular MTL, we introduce Many Task
Learning (MaTL) as a special case of MTL where more than 20 tasks are performed
by a single model. Our method dubbed Task Routing (TR) is encapsulated in a
layer we call the Task Routing Layer (TRL), which applied in an MaTL scenario
successfully fits hundreds of classification tasks in one model. We evaluate
our method on 5 datasets against strong baselines and state-of-the-art
approaches.Comment: 8 Pages, 5 Figures, 2 Table
Semi-Supervised Radio Signal Identification
Radio emitter recognition in dense multi-user environments is an important
tool for optimizing spectrum utilization, identifying and minimizing
interference, and enforcing spectrum policy. Radio data is readily available
and easy to obtain from an antenna, but labeled and curated data is often
scarce making supervised learning strategies difficult and time consuming in
practice. We demonstrate that semi-supervised learning techniques can be used
to scale learning beyond supervised datasets, allowing for discerning and
recalling new radio signals by using sparse signal representations based on
both unsupervised and supervised methods for nonlinear feature learning and
clustering methods
