Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) holds great promise in expanding the applications of wireless communication networks. However, in current communication-centric systems, the time-frequency resources available for sensing may be…
Power electronic converters are fundamental building blocks of both AC and DC microgrids, enabling the integration of renewable energy sources, energy storage systems, electronic loads, and electric vehicles. In contrast, converter control…
Electric truck operations require routing decisions that remain feasible under limited battery range, long charging times, travel and energy consumption, and competition for shared charging infrastructure. These features make electric truck…
Cooperative integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) based on orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) enables network-wide sensing by exploiting the spatial diversity of multi-base-station (BS). This paper studies performance…
Microwave linear analog computing (MiLAC) has recently emerged as a promising architecture for analog-domain beamforming. In particular, a hybrid digital-MiLAC architecture was proposed and was shown to achieve fully-digital beamforming…
Visual data compression is shifting from human-centered reconstruction to machine-oriented representation coding. In this setting, an image is often mapped to a compact semantic embedding, which is then compressed and transmitted for…
Nuclear fusion is a promising clean energy source in which deuterium and tritium fuse inside a magnetically confined plasma in a tokamak, releasing energy. A key challenge on the route to practical nuclear fusion is the control of the…
The CONCERTO millimeter-wave spectral-imaging instrument was deployed on the Atacama Pathfinder EXperiment (APEX), where it acquired science data between April 2021 and May 2023. The instrument features two focal-plane arrays, each composed…
As the penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) increases, harnessing their flexibility becomes critical for power system operations. Virtual power plants (VPPs) offer a promising solution. However, most existing scheduling tools…
Interference alignment (IA) is a widely recognized approach for mitigating inter-cell interference in multi-user multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) networks. Despite its effectiveness, practical deployment remains constrained by two…
This work presents the design and analysis of a sixth-order triple-coupled transformer-based tank, enabling third-harmonic expansion for mmWave VCOs. Unlike conventional fourth-order tanks, the proposed tank inherently supports three…
Objective metrics for emotional expressiveness are vital for speech generation, particularly in expressive synthesis and voice conversion requiring emotional prosody transfer. To quantify this, the field widely relies on emotion similarity…
Micro DC brushed motors are widely deployed in battery-powered biomedical systems, where limited energy budgets and variable physiological loading impose stringent efficiency and safety constraints. However, conventional actuation…
The integration of multimodal sensing and millimeter-wave (mmWave) communications is a key enabler for highly mobile vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) networks. However, continuous high-resolution visual sensing incurs prohibitive…
Conventional neural speech codecs suffer from severe intelligibility degradation at ultra-low bitrates, where the bottleneck transitions from acoustic distortion to semantic loss. To address this issue, this paper conducts a systematic…
To preserve or not to preserve prosody is a central question in voice anonymization. Prosody conveys meaning and affect, yet is tightly coupled with speaker identity. Existing methods either discard prosody for privacy or lack a principled…
Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) is increasingly expected to operate under aggressive spectrum reuse, where co-channel orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) interference can be catastrophic for data recovery on the…
Preserving a speaker's voice identity while generating speech in a different language remains a fundamental challenge in spoken language technology, particularly in specialized domains such as scientific communication. In this paper, we…
We aim to learn a sparse and connected graph from sparse data, where the number of observations K can be substantially smaller than the signal dimension N for signals x in R^N, and the underlying distribution is unknown. In this severely…
Supervised contrastive learning (SupCon) is widely used to shape representations, but has seen limited targeted study for audio deepfake detection. Existing work typically combines contrastive terms with broader pipelines; however, the…
