Matrix minimization techniques that employ the nuclear norm have gained recognition for their applicability in tasks like image inpainting, clustering, classification, and reconstruction. However, they come with inherent biases and computational burdens, especially when used to relax the rank function, making them less effective and efficient in real-world scenarios. To address these challenges, our research focuses on generalized nonconvex rank regularization problems in robust matrix completion, low-rank representation, and robust matrix regression. We introduce innovative approaches for effective and efficient low-rank matrix learning, grounded in generalized nonconvex rank relaxations inspired by various substitutes for the ?0-norm relaxed functions. These relaxations allow us to more accurately capture low-rank structures. Our optimization strategy employs a nonconvex and multi-variable alternating direction method of multipliers, backed by rigorous theoretical analysis for complexity and *** algorithm iteratively updates blocks of variables, ensuring efficient convergence. Additionally, we incorporate the randomized singular value decomposition technique and/or other acceleration strategies to enhance the computational efficiency of our approach, particularly for large-scale constrained minimization problems. In conclusion, our experimental results across a variety of image vision-related application tasks unequivocally demonstrate the superiority of our proposed methodologies in terms of both efficacy and efficiency when compared to most other related learning methods.

The power grid is undergoing a transformation from synchronous generators(SGs) toward inverter-based resources(IBRs). The stochasticity, asynchronicity, and limited-inertia characteristics of IBRs bring about challenges to grid resilience. Virtual power plants(VPPs) are emerging technologies to improve the grid resilience and advance the transformation. By judiciously aggregating geographically distributed energy resources(DERs) as individual electrical entities, VPPs can provide capacity and ancillary services to grid operations and participate in electricity wholesale markets. This paper aims to provide a concise overview of the concept and development of VPPs and the latest progresses in VPP operation, with the focus on VPP scheduling and control. Based on this overview, we identify a few potential challenges in VPP operation and discuss the opportunities of integrating the multi-agent system(MAS)-based strategy into the VPP operation to enhance its scalability, performance and resilience.

Realizing digital-twin services is one of promising applications in 6 G mobile communication and network scenarios. In addition, the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is essential for enabling the services even in the extreme areas where humans cannot reach. In this emerging scenario, it is necessary to design collaborative algorithms for autonomous UAV trajectory control and a centralized computing platform (e.g., cloud) in digital-twin networks. For this system, it is required to build energy-efficient algorithms due to the power-hungry nature in UAVs. Based on this requirements and system characteristics, this paper proposes autonomous UAV charging algorithms and systems where the UAVs are classified into two types, i.e., cluster UAVs (for main image recording operations in digital-twin services, and some of them take the roles of mobile edge computing) and charging UAVs (for charging the cluster UAVs). Our proposed charging should be (i) fully distributed for practical, scalable, and low-overhead operations and (ii) trustworthy for secure and privacy-preserving computation;where these are essential for collaborative operations. Therefore, a novel auction-based charging algorithm for UAV-based digital-twin networks is proposed in order to realize the distributed and truthful operations, which cannot be achieved by the convex optimization-based centralized algorithms in the literature. Our performance evaluation verifies that the proposed algorithm achieves performance improvements (at most 15.53%). IEEE

Federated learning is widely accepted as a privacy-preserving paradigm for training a shared global model across multiple client devices in a collaborative fashion. However, in practice, the significantly limited computational power on client devices has been a major barrier when we wish to train large models with potentially hundreds of millions of parameters. In this paper, we propose a new architecture, referred to as Infocomm, that incorporates locally supervised learning in federated learning. With locally supervised learning, the disadvantages of split learning can be avoided by using a more flexible way to offload training from resource constrained clients to a more capable server. Infocomm enables parallel training of different modules of the neural network in both the server and clients in a gradient-isolated fashion. The efficacy in reducing both training time and communication time is supported by our theoretical analysis and empirical results. In the scenario involving larger models and fewer available local data, Infocomm has been observed to reduce the elapsed time per round by over 37% without sacrificing accuracy compared to both conventional federated learning or directly combining federated learning and split learning, which showcases the advantages of Infocomm under power-constrained IoT scenarios.
