Virtual reality (VR) applications have revolutionized digital interaction by providing immersive experiences.360° VR video streaming has experienced significant growth and popularity as a pivotal VR application. However, the combination of limited network bandwidth and the demand for high-quality videos frequently hinders the achievement of a satisfactory quality of experience (QoE). Although prior methods have enhanced QoE, the effects of decoding latency have been poorly studied. It is technically challenging to design a quality adaptation algorithm that can balance the pursuit of high-quality videos and the limitation of limited bandwidth resources. To address this challenge, we propose an edge-end architecture for 360° VR video streaming and aim to enhance overall QoE by solving a performance optimization problem. Specifically, our experiments on commercial mobile devices in real-world situations reveal that decoding latency significantly influences QoE. First, decoding latency plays a major role in contributing to end-to-end latency, which exceeds the transmission latency. Second, decoding latency can differ considerably between devices with varying computational capabilities. Building on this insight, we propose a novel latency-aware quality adaptation (LAQA) algorithm. LAQA lies in developing a solution that can allocate video quality in real-time and enhance overall QoE. LAQA involves not only the quality of the received content, the transmission latency and the quality variance, but also the decoding latency and the fairness of the user quality. Subsequently, we formulate a combinatorial optimization problem to maximize overall QoE. Through extensive validation with experimental data from real-world situations, LAQA offers a promising approach to enhance QoE and ensure fairness performance in different devices. In particular, LAQA achieves 16.77% and 10.66% enhancement over the state-of-the-art combinatorial optimization and reinforcement learning algorithm

Graph self-supervised learning has sparked a research surge in training informative representations without accessing any labeled data. However, our understanding of graph self-supervised learning remains limited, and the inherent relationships between various self-supervised tasks are still unexplored. Our paper aims to provide a fresh understanding of graph self-supervised learning based on task correlations. Specifically, we evaluate the performance of the representations trained by one specific task on other tasks and define correlation values to quantify task correlations. Through this process, we unveil the task correlations between various self-supervised tasks and can measure their expressive capabilities, which are closely related to downstream performance. By analyzing the correlation values between tasks across various datasets, we reveal the complexity of task correlations and the limitations of existing multi-task learning methods. To obtain more capable representations, we propose Graph Task Correlation Modeling (GraphTCM) to illustrate the task correlations and utilize it to enhance graph self-supervised training. The experimental results indicate that our method significantly outperforms existing methods across various downstream tasks. Copyright 2024 by the author(s)
