Item Communication Technologies for Edge Learning and Inference: A Novel Framework, Open Issues, and Perspectives(2023-03-01) Muhammad, Khan; Ser, Javier Del; Magaia, Naercio; Fonseca, Ramon; Hussain, Tanveer; Gandomi, Amir H.; Daneshmand, Mahmoud; De Albuquerque, Victor Hugo C.; IAWith the continuous advancement of smart devices and their demand for data, the complex computation that was previously exclusive to the cloud server is now moving toward the edge of the network. For numerous reasons (e.g., applications demanding low latencies and data privacy), data-based computation has been brought closer to the originating source, forging the edge computing paradigm. Together with machine learning, edge computing has become a powerful local decision-making tool, fostering the advent of edge learning. However, the latter has become delay-sensitive and resource-Thirsty in terms of hardware and networking. New methods have been developed to solve or minimize these issues, as proposed in this study. We first investigated representative communication methods for edge learning and inference (ELI), focusing on data compression, latency, and resource management. Next, we proposed an ELI-based video data prioritization framework that only considers data with events and hence significantly reduces the transmission and storage resources when implemented in surveillance networks. Furthermore, we critically examined various communication aspects related to edge learning by analyzing their issues and highlighting their advantages and disadvantages. Finally, we discuss the challenges and present issues that remain.Item Multiview Summarization and Activity Recognition Meet Edge Computing in IoT Environments(2021-06-15) Hussain, Tanveer; Muhammad, Khan; Ullah, Amin; Ser, Javier Del; Gandomi, Amir H.; Sajjad, Muhammad; Baik, Sung Wook; De Albuquerque, Victor Hugo C.; IAMultiview video summarization (MVS) has not received much attention from the research community due to inter-view correlations and views' overlapping, etc. The majority of previous MVS works are offline, relying on only summary, and require additional communication bandwidth and transmission time, with no focus on foggy environments. We propose an edge intelligence-based MVS and activity recognition framework that combines artificial intelligence with Internet of Things (IoT) devices. In our framework, resource-constrained devices with cameras use a lightweight CNN-based object detection model to segment multiview videos into shots, followed by mutual information computation that helps in a summary generation. Our system does not rely solely on a summary, but encodes and transmits it to a master device using a neural computing stick for inter-view correlations computation and efficient activity recognition, an approach which saves computation resources, communication bandwidth, and transmission time. Experiments show an increase of 0.4 unit in F -measure on an MVS Office dateset and 0.2% and 2% improved accuracy for UCF-50 and YouTube 11 datesets, respectively, with lower storage and transmission times. The processing time is reduced from 1.23 to 0.45 s for a single frame and optimally 0.75 seconds faster MVS. A new dateset is constructed by synthetically adding fog to an MVS dateset to show the adaptability of our system for both certain and uncertain IoT surveillance environments.
