Mobile apps have become widely adopted in our daily lives. To facilitate app discovery, most app markets provide recommendations for users, which may significantly impact how apps are accessed. However, little has been known about the underlying relationships and how they reflect(or affect) user behaviors. To fill this gap, we characterize the app recommendation relationships in the i OS app store from the perspective of the complex network. We collect a dataset containing over 1.3 million apps and 50 million app recommendations. This dataset enables us to construct a complex network that captures app recommendation relationships. Through this, we explore the recommendation relationships between mobile apps and how these relationships reflect or affect user behavior patterns. The insights gained from our research can be valuable for understanding typical user behaviors and identifying potential policy-violating apps.

Semantic communication (SemCom) is an emerging paradigm focusing on the meaning of transmitted symbols for effective communications. Existing SemCom methods necessitate the collaborative construction of a shared common dataset to train semantic encoders and decoders before communications. Unfortunately, the prerequisite limits the application of SemCom due to the difficulty of maintaining a shared dataset. Moreover, the synchronous training paradigm based on the shared dataset also confines existing SemCom to a pairwise mode. In this article, we focus on establishing SemCom in the absence of a shared dataset. We assume that communication participants each possess a non-independent and identically distributed (non-IID) private dataset. We propose a Receiver-Oriented SEmantic communication framework (ROSE). Specifically, in our framework, the receiver first independently trains her encoder and decoder, and publishes the trained encoder and decoder. When a sender expects to communicate with the receiver, he obtains the receiver’s codecs and combines them with his own private dataset to train an encoder for the upcoming communication. Through an implement case study, we demonstrated that the proposed framework can achieve state-of-the-art communication performance without shared common dataset between communication parties. We also present a further discussion on the possibilities and challenges in this new communication paradigm. IEEE

Machine learning has been massively utilized to construct data-driven solutions for predicting the lifetime of rechargeable batteries in recent years, which project the physical measurements obtained during the early charging/discharging cycles to the remaining useful lifetime. While most existing techniques train the prediction model through minimizing the prediction error only, the errors associated with the physical measurements can also induce negative impact to the prediction accuracy. Although total-least-squares(TLS) regression has been applied to address this issue, it relies on the unrealistic assumption that the distributions of measurement errors on all input variables are equivalent, and cannot appropriately capture the practical characteristics of battery degradation. In order to tackle this challenge, this work intends to model the variations along different input dimensions, thereby improving the accuracy and robustness of battery lifetime prediction. In specific, we propose an innovative EM-TLS framework that enhances the TLS-based prediction to accommodate dimension-variate errors, while simultaneously investigating the distributions of them using expectation-maximization(EM). Experiments have been conducted to validate the proposed method based on the data of commercial Lithium-Ion batteries, where it reduces the prediction error by up to 29.9 % compared with conventional TLS. This demonstrates the immense potential of the proposed method for advancing the R&D of rechargeable batteries.
