With the great capability of learning high-level representational features of unstructured data automatically, deep learning is acknowledged as a powerful machine learning algorithm for radio signal processing. For example, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are leveraged to develop automatic modulation classification frameworks in [1]-[3]. CNN and its combination with Vision Transformers are also used to design intelligent frameworks that can accurately classify waveform and radio signals in radar systems [4]-[7]. With the recent advancements in computing hardware and artificial intelligence models, such as knowledge graphs, Transformers, large language models (LLMs), generative artificial intelligence (GAI), and the development of future networks and the Internet-of-Things (IoT), there are numerous opportunities to skillfully leverage advanced deep learning techniques for model design and performance improvement.
In addition to the applications of deep learning in radio signal processing, I am happy to discuss and supervise any project ideas about the use of deep learning in other areas, such as cybersecurity and computer vision. More information: https://www.scss.tcd.ie/viet.pham
