Recommender systems are effective in mitigating information overload, yet the centralized storage of user data raises significant privacy concerns. Cross-user federated recommendation(CUFR) provides a promising distributed paradigm to address these concerns by enabling privacy-preserving recommendations directly on user devices. In this survey, we review and categorize current progress in CUFR, focusing on four key aspects: privacy, security, accuracy, and efficiency. Firstly,we conduct an in-depth privacy analysis, discuss various cases of privacy leakage, and then review recent methods for privacy protection. Secondly, we analyze security concerns and review recent methods for untargeted and targeted *** untargeted attack methods, we categorize them into data poisoning attack methods and parameter poisoning attack methods. For targeted attack methods, we categorize them into user-based methods and item-based methods. Thirdly,we provide an overview of the federated variants of some representative methods, and then review the recent methods for improving accuracy from two categories: data heterogeneity and high-order information. Fourthly, we review recent methods for improving training efficiency from two categories: client sampling and model compression. Finally, we conclude this survey and explore some potential future research topics in CUFR.

Numerous autonomous driving systems employ deep learning-based image object detection schemes for their navigation. For developing reliable autonomous driving systems, the training process of the deep image object detectors must be performed in a precise manner. Existence of samples with erroneous labels, e.g., erroneous bounding boxes, in the training datasets of autonomous driving systems leads to a reduction in their performance and a decrease in their reliability in real-life situations. Given these explanations, in this paper, we propose a novel erroneous bounding box detection scheme for identifying the bounding boxes in the training datasets that are annotated wrongly, and avoid their use in the training process of autonomous driving systems. Specifically, we employ two efficient techniques, namely, multi-modal information processing and confident learning, in the development of the proposed scheme. In the multi-modal information processing, we first obtain the instance segmentation maps of the images using deep image instance segmentation networks, and then, utilize their interactions with the spatial coordinates of the bounding boxes, along with the spatial coordinates themselves, to generate discriminative sets of features for the task of erroneous bounding box detection. Further, by using the confident learning technique, we leverage the statistical information of the estimated erroneous statuses of the bounding boxes, to further enhance the performance of the task of erroneous bounding box detection. The results of extensive experimentations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed erroneous bounding box detection scheme in cleaning the datasets of autonomous driving systems, compared to the state-of-the-art data selection schemes.

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.

Building heating, ventilating, and air conditioning(HVAC) systems have one of the largest energy footprint worldwide, which necessitates the design of intelligent control algorithms that improve the energy utilization while still providing thermal comfort. In this work, the authors formulate the HVAC equipment dynamics in the setting of a two-player non-zero-sum cooperative game, which enables two decision variables(mass flow rate and supply air temperature) to perform joint optimization of the control utilization and thermal setpoint tracking by simultaneously exchanging their policies. The HVAC zone serves as a game environment for these two decision variables that act as two players in a game. It is assumed that dynamic models of HVAC equipment are not available. Furthermore, neither the state nor any estimates of HVAC disturbance(heat gains, outside variations, etc.) are accessible,but only the measurement of the zone temperature is available for feedback. Under these constraints,the authors develop a new data-driven Q-learning scheme employing policy iteration and value iteration with a bias compensation mechanism that accounts for unmeasurable disturbances and circumvents the need of full-state measurement. The proposed algorithms are shown to converge to the optimal solution corresponding to the generalized algebraic Riccati equations(GAREs) in dynamic games.
