As a classical convex optimization problem in geometry, computing the maximum inscribed ball (MaxIB) in ultra-high-dimensional polytopes is critical for enabling real-time IoT applications, such as optimal deployment of sensor networks, where polytopes model physical constraints arising from obstacles or coverage boundaries. However, existing methods suffer from the curse of dimensionality, leading to prohibitive computational costs. This paper develops a more efficient approach for computing the (1-\(\epsilon\))-approximate MaxIB in high-dimensional polytopes. To address these challenges, the problem is reformulated with adaptive penalty parameters to enforce strong convexity, enabling line... More >

Designing a reliable fiber optic communication network is crucial. High-speed optical networks are now a vital part of the communication system and the foundation of wireless and mobile networks, driven by their constant expansion and increasing demand. The high transmission rate improves spectral utilization, increases system capacity, and reduces overall system expenditure. To improve the communication channel and achieve high transmission performance and data rates, a spread-spectrum compensation scheme is required. The goal of fiber optic communication systems is to transmit as many bits per second as possible over the longest possible distance at an acceptable data rate. Two methods are... More >

The Internet of Things (IoT) continues to expand rapidly, resulting in increasingly heterogeneous and complex wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Traditional anomaly detection approaches cannot cope with dynamic traffic patterns, high data volumes, and strict resource constraints. This study presents a hybrid XGBoost–CNN model that integrates XGBoost-based feature selection with a lightweight Convolutional Neural Network optimized for IoT environments. The proposed model was evaluated using real-world IoT traffic data and benchmarked against XGBoost, KNN, and SVM. Experimental results show that the hybrid approach improves detection accuracy by over 1%, increases throughput by 22–40%, and r... More >

Accurate state estimation for dynamic targets is essential in fields such as target tracking, navigation, and autonomous driving. However, traditional estimation models struggle to handle the nonlinear motion patterns and sensor noise prevalent in real-world environments. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel end-to-end estimation model named Variational Neural Network with Planar Flow (VNNPF). The model integrates a Bayesian Gated Recurrent Unit (BGRU) as the process model, a planar flow-based variational autoencoder (PFVAE) as the measurement model, and a Bayesian hyperparameter optimization module inspired by Kalman filtering. The BGRU captures nonlinear temporal depend... More >

This literature review examines the state of Text-to-SQL technology, which translates natural language queries into SQL. It analyzes rule-based, neural, and hybrid approaches, assessing their strengths and weaknesses, and surveys commonly used datasets, benchmarks, and evaluation metrics. The study identifies research gaps concerning generalization, scalability, and interpretability, and suggests integrating user feedback and domain knowledge. To better understand the implementation and potential improvements of machine learning in this domain, we conducted a systematic literature review (SLR) of publications from 2015 to 2023. From 439 gathered papers, 23 were identified as highly relevant.... More >
