Within the electronic design automation(EDA) domain, artificial intelligence(AI)-driven solutions have emerged as formidable tools, yet they typically augment rather than redefine existing methodologies. These solutions often repurpose deep learning models from other domains, such as vision, text, and graph analytics, applying them to circuit design without tailoring to the unique complexities of electronic circuits. Such an “AI4EDA” approach falls short of achieving a holistic design synthesis and understanding,overlooking the intricate interplay of electrical, logical, and physical facets of circuit data. This study argues for a paradigm shift from AI4EDA towards AI-rooted EDA from the ground up, integrating AI at the core of the design process. Pivotal to this vision is the development of a multimodal circuit representation learning technique, poised to provide a comprehensive understanding by harmonizing and extracting insights from varied data sources, such as functional specifications, register-transfer level(RTL) designs, circuit netlists,and physical layouts. We champion the creation of large circuit models(LCMs) that are inherently multimodal, crafted to decode and express the rich semantics and structures of circuit data, thus fostering more resilient, efficient, and inventive design methodologies. Embracing this AI-rooted philosophy, we foresee a trajectory that transcends the current innovation plateau in EDA, igniting a profound “shift-left” in electronic design methodology. The envisioned advancements herald not just an evolution of existing EDA tools but a revolution, giving rise to novel instruments of design-tools that promise to radically enhance design productivity and inaugurate a new epoch where the optimization of circuit performance, power, and area(PPA) is achieved not incrementally, but through leaps that redefine the benchmarks of electronic systems' capabilities.

A significant fraction of the world’s population is living in cities. With the rapid development ofinformation and computing technologies (ICT), cities may be made smarter by embedding ICT intotheir infrastructure. By smarter, we mean that the city operation will be more efficient, cost-effective,energy-saving, be more connected, more secure, and more environmentally friendly. As such, a smartcity is typically defined as a city that has a strong integration with ICT in all its components, includingits physical components, social components, and business components [1,2].

In recent years, face detection has emerged as a prominent research field within computer Vision (CV) and Deep Learning. Detecting faces in images and video sequences remains a challenging task due to various factors such as pose variation, varying illumination, occlusion, and scale differences. Despite the development of numerous face detection algorithms in deep learning, the Viola-Jones algorithm, with its simple yet effective approach, continues to be widely used in real-time camera applications. The conventional Viola-Jones algorithm employs AdaBoost for classifying faces in images and videos. The challenge lies in working with cluttered real-time facial images. AdaBoost needs to search through all possible thresholds for all samples to find the minimum training error when receiving features from Haar-like detectors. Therefore, this exhaustive search consumes significant time to discover the best threshold values and optimize feature selection to build an efficient classifier for face detection. In this paper, we propose enhancing the conventional Viola-Jones algorithm by incorporating Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to improve its predictive accuracy, particularly in complex face images. We leverage PSO in two key areas within the Viola-Jones framework. Firstly, PSO is employed to dynamically select optimal threshold values for feature selection, thereby improving computational efficiency. Secondly, we adapt the feature selection process using AdaBoost within the Viola-Jones algorithm, integrating PSO to identify the most discriminative features for constructing a robust classifier. Our approach significantly reduces the feature selection process time and search complexity compared to the traditional algorithm, particularly in challenging environments. We evaluated our proposed method on a comprehensive face detection benchmark dataset, achieving impressive results, including an average true positive rate of 98.73% and a 2.1% higher average prediction accura

Machine learning-based detection of false data injection attacks (FDIAs) in smart grids relies on labeled measurement data for training and testing. The majority of existing detectors are developed assuming that the adopted datasets for training have correct labeling information. However, such an assumption is not always valid as training data might include measurement samples that are incorrectly labeled as benign, namely, adversarial data poisoning samples, which have not been detected before. Neglecting such an aspect makes detectors susceptible to data poisoning. Our investigations revealed that detection rates (DRs) of existing detectors significantly deteriorate by up to 9-29% when subject to data poisoning in generalized and topology-specific settings. Thus, we propose a generalized graph neural network-based anomaly detector that is robust against FDIAs and data poisoning. It requires only benign datasets for training and employs an autoencoder with Chebyshev graph convolutional recurrent layers with attention mechanism to capture the spatial and temporal correlations within measurement data. The proposed convolutional recurrent graph autoencoder model is trained and tested on various topologies (from 14, 39, and 118-bus systems). Due to such factors, it yields stable generalized detection performance that is degraded by only 1.6-3.7% in DR against high levels of data poisoning and unseen FDIAs in unobserved topologies. Impact Statement-Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems are used in smart grids to detect cyberattacks. They can automatically detect malicious actions carried out bymalicious entities that falsifymeasurement data within power grids. Themajority of such systems are data-driven and rely on labeled data for model training and testing. However, datasets are not always correctly labeled since malicious entities might be carrying out cyberattacks without being detected, which leads to training on mislabeled datasets. Such actions might degrade the d

Beam scanning for joint detection and communication in integrated sensing and communication(ISAC) systems plays a critical role in continuous monitoring and rapid adaptation to dynamic environments. However, the design of sequential scanning beams for target detection with the required sensing resolution has not been tackled in the *** bridge this gap, this paper introduces a resolution-aware beam scanning design. In particular, the transmit information beamformer, the covariance matrix of the dedicated radar signal, and the receive beamformer are jointly optimized to maximize the average sum rate of the system while satisfying the sensing resolution and detection probability requirements.A block coordinate descent(BCD)-based optimization framework is developed to address the non-convex design problem. By exploiting successive convex approximation(SCA), S-procedure, and semidefinite relaxation(SDR), the proposed algorithm is guaranteed to converge to a stationary solution with polynomial time complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed design can efficiently handle the stringent detection requirement and outperform existing antenna-activation-based methods in the literature by exploiting the full degrees of freedom(DoFs) brought by all antennas.
