Semi-supervised MIMO Detection Using Cycle-consistent Generative Adversarial Network
In this paper, a new semi-supervised deep multiple-input multiple-output
(MIMO) detection approach using a cycle-consistent generative adversarial
network (CycleGAN) is proposed for communication systems without any prior
knowledge of underlying channel distributions. Specifically, we propose the
CycleGAN detector by constructing a bidirectional loop of two modified least
squares generative adversarial networks (LS-GAN). The forward LS-GAN learns to
model the transmission process, while the backward LS-GAN learns to detect the
received signals. By optimizing the cycle-consistency of the transmitted and
received signals through this loop, the proposed method is trained online and
semi-supervisedly using both the pilots and the received payload data. As such,
the demand on labelled training dataset is considerably controlled, and thus
the overhead is effectively reduced. Numerical results show that the proposed
CycleGAN detector achieves better performance in terms of both bit error-rate
(BER) and achievable rate than existing semi-blind deep learning (DL) detection
methods as well as conventional linear detectors, especially when considering
signal distortion due to the nonlinearity of power amplifiers (PA) at the
transmitter
El impacto de las técnicas de andamiaje basadas en aprendizaje combinado en la autoeficacia y el deseo por comunicarse
Motivating learners to engage in effective communication is one of the fundamental concerns of language education. Accordingly, an educational context where L2 learners display a willingness to communicate (WTC) is a requirement for successful learning. A further concept that should be studied regarding WTC is students' self-efficacy from the socio-cognitive theory. Moreover, to boost the quality of learning, English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students should receive effective support, including scaffolding that motivates them to build up their knowledge in Blended Learning (BL) settings. To examine BL-based scaffolding techniques on students’ self-efficacy and WTC, this quasi-experimental design involving 232 participants were assigned to the experimental and the control groups including both intermediate and advanced learners. Subsequently, the self-efficacy questionnaire, and WTC questionnaires were distributed among them as a pretest. The statistical results of Two two-way ANCOVA tests showed that both language proficiency and the treatment type are the significant moderators of the efficacy scores. The experimental group outperformed the control group and the advanced learners outperformed the intermediate ones. In addition, the results indicated that while language proficiency did not moderate the WTC scores, the treatment type was the significant moderator of the WTC scores.

Numerical analyses of the flow past a short rotating cylinder
This work studies the three-dimensional flow dynamics around a rotating
circular cylinder of finite length, whose axis is positioned perpendicular to
the streamwise direction. Direct numerical simulations and global stability
analyses are performed within a parameter range of Reynolds number
(based on cylinder diameter , uniform incoming flow
velocity ), length-to-diameter ratio and dimensionless
rotation rate (where is rotation
rate). By solving Nav\-ier--Sto\-kes equations, we investigated the wake
patterns and explored the phase diagrams of the lift and drag coefficients. For
a cylinder with , we found that when the rotation effect is weak
(), the wake pattern is similar to the unsteady wake
past the non-rotating finite-length cylinder, but with a new linear unstable
mode competing to dominate the saturation state of the wake. The flow becomes
stable for when . When the rotation
effect is strong (), new low-frequency wake patterns with
stronger oscillations emerge. Furthermore, the stability analyses based on the
time-averaged flows and on the steady solutions demonstrate the existence of
multiple unstable modes undergoing Hopf bifurcation, greatly influenced by the
rotation effect. The shapes of these global eigenmodes are presented and
compared, as well as their structural sensitivity, visualising the flow region
important for the disturbance development with rotation. This research
contributes to our understanding of the complex bluff-body wake dynamics past
this critical configuration.Comment: 35 pages, 29 figures, the version of record of this article is

Numerical analysis on aerodynamic characteristics of short cylindrical terminal-sensitive bullet
The flow-induced lateral vibration phenomenon of the terminal sensitive bullets (TSB) when it is dispersed by the airborne distributor is taken as the research background. Based on the Fluent, the flow around a rotating short cylindrical TSB (L/D < 1) is simulated and analyzed varying with relative rotation velocity at high Re number (1×105 ≤ Re ≤ 3×106). The simulation results show that the flow field structure of the short cylinder with two free ends is different from the symmetry of the short cylindrical flow field with one free end, and there is no horseshoe vortex. Compared to the long cylinder with double free ends, the Cd of the short cylinder is more sensitive to the change of Re. With the increase of Re, the Cd of the short cylinder decreases, and the value is between the infinite cylinder and the sphere in the non-critical region. When the short cylinder rotates at the angular velocity ω, the top vortex bends and deforms to a ‘C’ shape on the leeward side where the fluid is accelerated. Due to the periodic disturbance of the detector, the aerodynamic coefficient of the rotating TSB is periodically vibrated. In a single cycle, the waveform of the cd shows a ‘W’ shape, and the waveform of the cl is ‘M’
Deep Learning-Based Modeling of 5G Core Control Plane for 5G Network Digital Twin
Digital twin is a key enabler to facilitate the development and
implementation of new technologies in 5G and beyond networks. However, the
complex structure and diverse functions of the current 5G core network,
especially the control plane, lead to difficulties in building the core network
of the digital twin. In this paper, we propose two novel data-driven
architectures for modeling the 5G control plane and implement corresponding
deep learning models, namely 5GC-Seq2Seq and 5GC-former, based on the Vanilla
Seq2Seq model and Transformer decoder respectively. To train and test models,
we also present a solution that allows the signaling messages to be
interconverted with vectors, which can be utilized in dataset construction. The
experiments are based on 5G core network signaling data collected by the
Spirent C50 network tester, including various procedures related to
registration, handover, PDU sessions, etc. Our results show that 5GC-Seq2Seq
achieves over 99.98% F1-score (A metric to measure the accuracy of positive
samples) with a relatively simple structure, while 5GC-former attains higher
than 99.998% F1-score by establishing a more complex and highly parallel model,
indicating that the method proposed in this paper reproduces the major
functions of the core network control plane in 5G digital twin with high
accuracy
Numerical analysis of underwater flow past columnar projectile with different cross-sections at high Reynolds numbers
Based on Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) technique, the flow around a columnar projectile with different cross-section shapes in the supercritical and extremely supercritical region is simulated by the Fluent. The cross-section of the projectile is regular polygon, which number of edges is 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 24 and ∞, where ∞ means a circle. The vortex shedding pattern and flow field characteristics are analyzed at Reynolds number 2.5×105 to 2×107. Regarding circular cylinder projectile, when the flow velocity changes from 25 m/s to 200 m/s, the average drag coefficient decreases, and the St Number increases. Regarding regular polygon, when the number of edges for polygon changes from 4 to ∞ at flow velocity 50 m/s, the average drag coefficient decreases, and the St Number increases. The average lift coefficient is almost equal to zero and does not change with the flow velocity and the cross-section. The pressure coefficient Cp of 4-prism, 6-prism, 8-prism, 12-prism and 24-prism has multiple local minimum values at the polygon vertices of the cross section. According to the spectrum analysis, the vortex shedding frequency of 4-prism, 24-prism and cylindrical is single and fixed, so the projectile may cause resonance and deviates from a predetermined trajectory. But for the 6-prism and 8-prism and 12-prism, the cl and cd is multi-periodic vibration. So, considering the flow induced structural vibrations, drag, the power of shrapnel and manufacturing cost, the 8-prism are better choices for cluster warhead underwater in engineering design
