RFDT-Channel: RGB-LiDAR-Based RF Digital Twin Scene Construction for 28 GHz Indoor Ray-Tracing Channel Simulation

Real-scene indoor millimeter-wave simulation requires efficient modeling of radio frequency (RF)-computable geometry and electromagnetic material properties. To address the low efficiency of manual scene modeling, the limited RF adaptability of visually reconstructed meshes, and the lack of material binding in 28 GHz ray-tracing simulation, RFDT-Channel is developed as an RF digital twin scene construction workflow based on red-green-blue (RGB) images and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) point clouds. Indoor videos and point clouds are collected by a Jetson Orin platform with LiDAR and GMSL cameras. An initial triangular mesh is generated through COLMAP, 3D Gaussian Splatting, and SuGaR. The LiDAR point cloud then provides geometric and scale references for RF-oriented regularization in Blender, including alignment, wall solidification, door/window opening construction, and topology repair. OpenScene semantic segmentation maps major indoor structures to concrete, glass, wood, and metal materials, and Sionna RT performs 28 GHz ray tracing. Under a fixed transmitter-receiver deployment, the generated channel impulse response (CIR), channel frequency response (CFR), and Radio Map results show that material binding mainly changes weak reflection, transmission, and scattering paths, reducing the number of effective paths from about 742 to about 52 while keeping the dominant path amplitude nearly unchanged.

A BEV-Fusion Based Framework for Sequential Multi-Modal Beam Prediction in mmWave Systems

Beam prediction is critical for reducing beam-training overhead in millimeter-wave (mmWave) systems, especially in high-mobility vehicular scenarios. This paper presents a BEV-Fusion based framework that unifies camera, LiDAR, radar, and GPS modalities in a shared bird's-eye-view (BEV) representation for spatially consistent multi-modal fusion. Unlike priorapproaches that fuse globally pooled one-dimensional features, the proposed method performs fusion in BEV space to preservecross-modal geometric structure and visual semantic density. A learned camera-to-BEV module based on cross-attention is adopted to generate BEV-aligned visual features without relying on precise camera calibration, and a temporal transformer is used to aggregate five-step sequential observations for motion-aware beam prediction. Experiments on the DeepSense 6G benchmark show that BEV-Fusion achieves approximately 87% distance- based accuracy (DBA) on scenarios 32, 33 and 34, outperforming the TransFuser baseline. These results indicate that BEV-space fusion provides an effective spatial abstraction for sensing-assisted beam prediction.

WiFi-based Cross-Domain Gesture Recognition Using Attention Mechanism

While fulfilling communication tasks, wireless signals can also be used to sense the environment. Among various types of sensing media, WiFi signals offer advantages such as widespread availability, low hardware cost, and strong robustness to environmental conditions like light, temperature, and humidity. By analyzing Wi-Fi signals in the environment, it is possible to capture dynamic changes of the human body and accomplish sensing applications such as gesture recognition. Although many existing gesture sensing solutions perform well in-domain but lack cross-domain capabilities (i.e., recognition performance in untrained environments). To address this, we extract Doppler spectra from the channel state information (CSI) received by all receivers and concatenate each Doppler spectrum along the same time axis to generate fused images with multi-angle information as input features. Furthermore, inspired by the convolutional block attention module (CBAM), we propose a gesture recognition network that integrates a multi-semantic spatial attention mechanism with a self-attention-based channel mechanism. This network constructs attention maps to quantify the spatiotemporal features of gestures in images, enabling the extraction of key domain-independent features. Additionally, ResNet18 is employed as the backbone network to further capture deep-level features. To validate the network performance, we evaluate the proposed network on the public Widar3 dataset, and the results show that it not only maintains high in-domain accuracy of 99.72%, but also achieves high performance in cross-domain recognition of 97.61%, significantly outperforming existing best solutions.

Write It Like You See It: Detectable Differences in Clinical Notes By Race Lead To Differential Model Recommendations

Clinical notes are becoming an increasingly important data source for machine learning (ML) applications in healthcare. Prior research has shown that deploying ML models can perpetuate existing biases against racial minorities, as bias can be implicitly embedded in data. In this study, we investigate the level of implicit race information available to ML models and human experts and the implications of model-detectable differences in clinical notes. Our work makes three key contributions. First, we find that models can identify patient self-reported race from clinical notes even when the notes are stripped of explicit indicators of race. Second, we determine that human experts are not able to accurately predict patient race from the same redacted clinical notes. Finally, we demonstrate the potential harm of this implicit information in a simulation study, and show that models trained on these race-redacted clinical notes can still perpetuate existing biases in clinical treatment decisions.

Downstream Fairness Caveats with Synthetic Healthcare Data

This paper evaluates synthetically generated healthcare data for biases and investigates the effect of fairness mitigation techniques on utility-fairness. Privacy laws limit access to health data such as Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) to preserve patient privacy. Albeit essential, these laws hinder research reproducibility. Synthetic data is a viable solution that can enable access to data similar to real healthcare data without privacy risks. Healthcare datasets may have biases in which certain protected groups might experience worse outcomes than others. With the real data having biases, the fairness of synthetically generated health data comes into question. In this paper, we evaluate the fairness of models generated on two healthcare datasets for gender and race biases. We generate synthetic versions of the dataset using a Generative Adversarial Network called HealthGAN, and compare the real and synthetic model's balanced accuracy and fairness scores. We find that synthetic data has different fairness properties compared to real data and fairness mitigation techniques perform differently, highlighting that synthetic data is not bias free.

The Relevance of Bayesian Layer Positioning to Model Uncertainty in Deep Bayesian Active Learning

One of the main challenges of deep learning tools is their inability to capture model uncertainty. While Bayesian deep learning can be used to tackle the problem, Bayesian neural networks often require more time and computational power to train than deterministic networks. Our work explores whether fully Bayesian networks are needed to successfully capture model uncertainty. We vary the number and position of Bayesian layers in a network and compare their performance on active learning with the MNIST dataset. We found that we can fully capture the model uncertainty by using only a few Bayesian layers near the output of the network, combining the advantages of deterministic and Bayesian networks.

Interpretable Classification Models for Recidivism Prediction

We investigate a long-debated question, which is how to create predictive models of recidivism that are sufficiently accurate, transparent, and interpretable to use for decision-making. This question is complicated as these models are used to support different decisions, from sentencing, to determining release on probation, to allocating preventative social services. Each use case might have an objective other than classification accuracy, such as a desired true positive rate (TPR) or false positive rate (FPR). Each (TPR, FPR) pair is a point on the receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve. We use popular machine learning methods to create models along the full ROC curve on a wide range of recidivism prediction problems. We show that many methods (SVM, Ridge Regression) produce equally accurate models along the full ROC curve. However, methods that designed for interpretability (CART, C5.0) cannot be tuned to produce models that are accurate and/or interpretable. To handle this shortcoming, we use a new method known as SLIM (Supersparse Linear Integer Models) to produce accurate, transparent, and interpretable models along the full ROC curve. These models can be used for decision-making for many different use cases, since they are just as accurate as the most powerful black-box machine learning models, but completely transparent, and highly interpretable.
