Adaptive Estimation of Time-Varying Sparse Signals

Abstract: We design compressive measurement matrices for time-varying sparse signals adaptively. This is a partially observable Markov decision process. This formulation lets us apply Bellman’s optimality principle to multi-step lookahead compressive measurement designs. We use…

A Multi-task Oriented Framework for Mobile Computation Offloading

Abstract: Computation offloading reduces smartphone energy consumption and improves performance. We propose and implement a lightweight offloading framework to offload compute-intensive tasks and simplify server deployment to address the heterogeneous architectures of the smartphone and…
