EMM: Energy-Aware Mobility Management for Mobile Edge Computing in Ultra Dense Networks
Merging mobile edge computing (MEC) functionality with the dense deployment
of base stations (BSs) provides enormous benefits such as a real proximity, low
latency access to computing resources. However, the envisioned integration
creates many new challenges, among which mobility management (MM) is a critical
one. Simply applying existing radio access oriented MM schemes leads to poor
performance mainly due to the co-provisioning of radio access and computing
services of the MEC-enabled BSs. In this paper, we develop a novel user-centric
energy-aware mobility management (EMM) scheme, in order to optimize the delay
due to both radio access and computation, under the long-term energy
consumption constraint of the user. Based on Lyapunov optimization and
multi-armed bandit theories, EMM works in an online fashion without future
system state information, and effectively handles the imperfect system state
information. Theoretical analysis explicitly takes radio handover and
computation migration cost into consideration and proves a bounded deviation on
both the delay performance and energy consumption compared to the oracle
solution with exact and complete future system information. The proposed
algorithm also effectively handles the scenario in which candidate BSs randomly
switch on/off during the offloading process of a task. Simulations show that
the proposed algorithms can achieve close-to-optimal delay performance while
satisfying the user energy consumption constraint.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figures, an extended version of the paper submitted to

Density Functional Theory Study on the Electrical Properties of α-CsPbX3 (X=I, Cl, Br)
All-inorganic perovskite solar cells have become more important in the commercialization of the photovoltaic devices. In this study the structural, electronic properties of inorganic metal halide cubic perovskites CsPbX3 (X = I, Br, Cl) for perovskite solar cells are simulated using first-principles Density Functional Theory (DFT). The newly adjusted parameters make the calculations more accurate. These compounds are semiconductors with direct band gap energy. Results suggest that the α-CsPbX3 (X=I, Cl, Br) have a wide bandgap adjustment range with potential application in solar cells and other optoelectronic energy devices. On the basis of the electronic properties, one can expect that the α-CsPbI3 would be a better used to perovskite solar cell. α -CsPbCl3 and α-CsPbBr3 better suitable for others photovoltaic device
Teaching Text-to-Image Models to Communicate in Dialog
A picture is worth a thousand words, thus, it is crucial for conversational
agents to understand, perceive, and effectively respond with pictures. However,
we find that directly employing conventional image generation techniques is
inadequate for conversational agents to produce image responses effectively. In
this paper, we focus on the innovative dialog-to-image generation task, where
the model synthesizes a high-resolution image aligned with the given dialog
context as a response. To tackle this problem, we design a tailored fine-tuning
approach on the top of state-of-the-art text-to-image generation models to
fully exploit the structural and semantic features in dialog context during
image generation. Concretely, we linearize the dialog context with specific
indicators to maintain the dialog structure, and employ in-domain data to
alleviate the style mismatch between dialog-to-image and conventional image
generation tasks. Empirical results on PhotoChat and MMDialog Corpus show that
our approach brings consistent and remarkable improvement with 3
state-of-the-art pre-trained text-to-image generation backbones.Comment: Work in progres
Crystal Chute Moves on Pipe Dreams
Schubert polynomials represent a basis for the cohomology of the complete
flag variety and thus play a central role in geometry and combinatorics. In
this context, Schubert polynomials are generating functions over various
combinatorial objects, such as rc-graphs or reduced pipe dreams. By restricting
Bergeron and Billey's chute moves on rc-graphs, we define a Demazure crystal
structure on the monomials of a Schubert polynomial. As a consequence, we
provide a method for decomposing Schubert polynomials as sums of key
polynomials, complementing related work of Assaf and Schilling via reduced
factorizations with cutoff, as well as Lenart's coplactic operators on biwords.Comment: 29 pages, 15 figures best viewed in colo
A Novel Model of Working Set Selection for SMO Decomposition Methods
In the process of training Support Vector Machines (SVMs) by decomposition
methods, working set selection is an important technique, and some exciting
schemes were employed into this field. To improve working set selection, we
propose a new model for working set selection in sequential minimal
optimization (SMO) decomposition methods. In this model, it selects B as
working set without reselection. Some properties are given by simple proof, and
experiments demonstrate that the proposed method is in general faster than
existing methods.Comment: 8 pages, 12 figures, it was submitted to IEEE International

On the Dynamical Wilf-Zeilberger Problem
In this paper, we give an algorithmic solution to a dynamical analog of the problem of certifying combinatorial identities by Wilf-Zeilberger pairs. Given two sequences generated in a dynamical setting, we calculate an upper bound N ≥ 1 such that whenever the first N terms of the two sequences agree pairwise, the two sequences agree term-by-term. Then, we give an algorithm that can be used to check whether two such sequences agree term-by-term. Our methods are mainly based on the theory of Chow rings of algebraic varieties
