Inverse Learning assisted V2I Communication for Intent Based 6G ISAC Vehicular Networks

6G is expected to bring unprecedented advancements in the capabilities of vehicular networks. However, the advent of 6G will also introduce changes in the operation of vehicular communication infrastructures such as roadside units (RSUs), including the incorporation of autonomous intent-based network paradigm and integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) capabilities. While ISAC enables sensing and communication within a single 6G network node, intent-based network design paradigm ensures that network nodes such as RSUs, act as autonomous cognitive agents to fulfill the objectives of their respective communication service providers. This paradigm shift necessitates the development of V2I communication strategies that learns and adapts to the sensing-assisted communication and the autonomous decision-making strategies of RSUs. We model the RSU as a constrained utility maximizer, where the utility function characterizes the RSU intent, and formulate an inverse learning (IL) problem to infer the underlying utility function from observed ISAC RSU actions, for example the adaptive beamwidth allocation in response to the kinematic states of vehicles within a vehicular micro-cloud (VMC). The main contributions of this paper are: (i) ATIL, a nonparametric method based on Afriat theorem for fixed utility learning; (ii) FICNNIL, a parametric approach using fully input-concave neural networks, for structured fixed utility learning; and (iii) PICNNIL, a parametric approach based on partially input-concave neural networks, for inverse learning of state-dependent utilities. (iv) Federated inverse learning algorithms FedFICNNIL and FedPICNNIL for fixed and state dependent utility, respectively. We demonstrate the proposed IL-based framework for two V2I communication applications in VMCs, namely predictive scheduling for cooperative data downloading and dynamic cluster-head selection.

Joint Inverse Learning of Cognitive Radar Perception and Perception-Action Policy

Cognitive Radars (CRs) employ perception-action cycle to adapt their sensing and transmission strategies based on its' perception of the target kinematic states and mission objectives. This paper considers an inverse learning Electronic Counter Measure (ECM) that infers both the perception and perception-driven action policy of the adversarial CR's from the actions of the CR, i.e. the sensing and transmission actions taken by the CR. Existing frameworks, in the literature, assume the knowledge of either the perception or the perception-action policy and infer the other. However, this assumption is unrealistic in an adversarial setting. We address this gap by proposing an online, nonparametric Bayesian machine learning framework and developing the Inverse Particle Filter with Dependent Dirichlet Process (IPFDDP) algorithm, which characterizes the perception-dependent action policy using a Dependent Dirichlet Process (DDP) and embeds kernel-based DDP inference within a Bayesian inverse particle filtering framework to jointly estimate the CR's perception and perception-action policy. Extensive numerical simulations demonstrate that IPFDDP outperforms existing inverse learning methods in terms of mean squared error, Kullback-Leibler divergence between the estimated and true policy, and accuracy in identifying relative action preferences. Unlike the existing techniques, the proposed Bayesian formulation naturally quantifies uncertainty in inferred perception and perception-action policy, enabling active probing strategies for sample efficient inverse learning. Simulation results show that active probing integrated with IPFDDP achieves, on average, a 40% faster reduction in KL divergence compared to randomized probing.

Bayesian framework for characterizing cryptocurrency market dynamics, structural dependency, and volatility using potential field

Identifying the structural dependence between the cryptocurrencies and predicting market trend are fundamental for effective portfolio management in cryptocurrency trading. In this paper, we present a unified Bayesian framework based on potential field theory and Gaussian Process to characterize the structural dependency of various cryptocurrencies, using historic price information. The following are our significant contributions: (i) Proposed a novel model for cryptocurrency price movements as a trajectory of a dynamical system governed by a time-varying non-linear potential field. (ii) Validated the existence of the non-linear potential function in cryptocurrency market through Lyapunov stability analysis. (iii) Developed a Bayesian framework for inferring the non-linear potential function from observed cryptocurrency prices. (iv) Proposed that attractors and repellers inferred from the potential field are reliable cryptocurrency market indicators, surpassing existing attributes, such as, mean, open price or close price of an observation window, in the literature. (v) Analysis of cryptocurrency market during various Bitcoin crash durations from April 2017 to November 2021, shows that attractors captured the market trend, volatility, and correlation. In addition, attractors aids explainability and visualization. (vi) The structural dependence inferred by the proposed approach was found to be consistent with results obtained using the popular wavelet coherence approach. (vii) The proposed market indicators (attractors and repellers) can be used to improve the prediction performance of state-of-art deep learning price prediction models. As, an example, we show improvement in Litecoin price prediction up to a horizon of 12 days.
