Metaverse over wireless networks is an emerging use case of the sixth generation (6G) wireless systems, posing unprecedented challenges in terms of its multi-modal data transmissions with stringent latency and reliability requirements. Towards enabling this wireless metaverse, in this article we propose a novel semantic communication (SC) framework by decomposing the metaverse into human/machine agent-specific semantic multiverses (SMs). An SM stored at each agent comprises a semantic encoder and a generator, leveraging recent advances in generative artificial intelligence (AI). To improve communication efficiency, the encoder learns the semantic representations (SRs) of multi-modal data, while the generator learns how to manipulate them for locally rendering scenes and interactions in the metaverse. Since these learned SMs are biased towards local environments, their success hinges on synchronizing heterogeneous SMs in the background while communicating SRs in the foreground, turning the wireless metaverse problem into the problem of semantic multiverse communication (SMC). Based on this SMC architecture, we propose several promising algorithmic and analytic tools for modeling and designing SMC, ranging from distributed learning and multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) to signaling games and symbolic AI.

Along with the springing up of semantics-empowered communication (SemCom) researches, it is now witnessing an unprecedentedly growing interest towards a wide range of aspects (e.g., theories, applications, metrics and implementations) in both academia and industry. In this work, we primarily aim to provide a comprehensive survey on both the background and research taxonomy, as well as a detailed technical tutorial. Specifically, we start by reviewing the literature and answering the "what" and "why" questions in semantic transmissions. Afterwards, we present corresponding ecosystems, including theories, metrics, datasets and toolkits, on top of which the taxonomy for research directions is presented. Furthermore, we propose to categorize the critical enabling techniques by explicit and implicit reasoning-based methods, and elaborate on how they evolve and contribute to modern content \& channel semantics-empowered communications. Besides reviewing and summarizing the latest efforts in SemCom, we discuss the relations with other communication levels (e.g., reliable and goal-oriented communications) from a holistic and unified viewpoint. Subsequently, in order to facilitate the future developments and industrial applications, we also highlight advanced practical techniques for boosting semantic accuracy, robustness, and large-scale scalability, just to mention a few. Finally, we discuss the technical challenges that shed light on future research opportunities.

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms are considered as a promising technique for next-generation communication networks due to their flexibility, mobility, low cost, and the ability to collaboratively and autonomously provide services. Distributed learning (DL) enables UAV swarms to intelligently provide communication services, multi-directional remote surveillance, and target tracking. In this survey, we first introduce several popular DL algorithms such as federated learning (FL), multi-agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL), distributed inference, and split learning, and present a comprehensive overview of their applications for UAV swarms, such as trajectory design, power control, wireless resource allocation, user assignment, perception, and satellite communications. Then, we present several state-of-the-art applications of UAV swarms in wireless communication systems, such us reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), virtual reality (VR), semantic communications, and discuss the problems and challenges that DL-enabled UAV swarms can solve in these applications. Finally, we describe open problems of using DL in UAV swarms and future research directions of DL enabled UAV swarms. In summary, this survey provides a comprehensive survey of various DL applications for UAV swarms in extensive scenarios.

经典的媒体访问控制（MAC）协议是可解释的，但是它们的任务不可能控制信号传导消息（CMS）不适合新兴任务 - 关键任务应用程序。相比之下，基于神经网络（NN）协议模型（NPM）学会生成特定于任务的CMS，但其理由和影响缺乏可解释性。为了填补这一空白，在本文中，我们首次提出了通过将NPM转换为概率逻辑编程语言（ProBlog）编写的可解释的符号图来构建的语义协议模型（SPM）。通过在将NPM视为CM发生器的同时提取和合并共同的CM及其连接，可以可行。通过广泛的模拟，我们证实了SPM在仅占据0.02％内存的同时紧密近似其原始NPM。通过利用其可解释性和记忆效率，我们演示了几种支持SPM的应用程序，例如SPM重新配置，以避免碰撞，并通过语义熵计算和存储多个SPM来比较不同的SPM，以应对非平稳环境。

In this tutorial paper, we look into the evolution and prospect of network architecture and propose a novel conceptual architecture for the 6th generation (6G) networks. The proposed architecture has two key elements, i.e., holistic network virtualization and pervasive artificial intelligence (AI). The holistic network virtualization consists of network slicing and digital twin, from the aspects of service provision and service demand, respectively, to incorporate service-centric and user-centric networking. The pervasive network intelligence integrates AI into future networks from the perspectives of networking for AI and AI for networking, respectively. Building on holistic network virtualization and pervasive network intelligence, the proposed architecture can facilitate three types of interplay, i.e., the interplay between digital twin and network slicing paradigms, between model-driven and data-driven methods for network management, and between virtualization and AI, to maximize the flexibility, scalability, adaptivity, and intelligence for 6G networks. We also identify challenges and open issues related to the proposed architecture. By providing our vision, we aim to inspire further discussions and developments on the potential architecture of 6G.

最近的自主代理和机器人的应用，如自动驾驶汽车，情景的培训师，勘探机器人和服务机器人带来了关注与当前生成人工智能（AI）系统相关的至关重要的信任相关挑战。尽管取得了巨大的成功，基于连接主义深度学习神经网络方法的神经网络方法缺乏解释他们对他人的决策和行动的能力。没有符号解释能力，它们是黑色盒子，这使得他们的决定或行动不透明，这使得难以信任它们在安全关键的应用中。最近对AI系统解释性的立场目睹了可解释的人工智能（XAI）的几种方法;然而，大多数研究都专注于应用于计算科学中的数据驱动的XAI系统。解决越来越普遍的目标驱动器和机器人的研究仍然缺失。本文评论了可解释的目标驱动智能代理和机器人的方法，重点是解释和沟通代理人感知功能的技术（示例，感官和愿景）和认知推理（例如，信仰，欲望，意图，计划和目标）循环中的人类。审查强调了强调透明度，可辨与和持续学习以获得解释性的关键策略。最后，本文提出了解释性的要求，并提出了用于实现有效目标驱动可解释的代理和机器人的路线图。

为了满足下一代无线通信网络的极其异构要求，研究界越来越依赖于使用机器学习解决方案进行实时决策和无线电资源管理。传统的机器学习采用完全集中的架构，其中整个培训数据在一个节点上收集，即云服务器，显着提高了通信开销，并提高了严重的隐私问题。迄今为止，最近提出了作为联合学习（FL）称为联合学习的分布式机器学习范式。在FL中，每个参与边缘设备通过使用自己的培训数据列举其本地模型。然后，通过无线信道，本地训练模型的权重或参数被发送到中央ps，聚合它们并更新全局模型。一方面，FL对优化无线通信网络的资源起着重要作用，另一方面，无线通信对于FL至关重要。因此，FL和无线通信之间存在“双向”关系。虽然FL是一个新兴的概念，但许多出版物已经在FL的领域发表了发布及其对下一代无线网络的应用。尽管如此，我们注意到没有任何作品突出了FL和无线通信之间的双向关系。因此，本调查纸的目的是通过提供关于FL和无线通信之间的相互依存性的及时和全面的讨论来弥合文学中的这种差距。

5G建筑和深度学习的融合在无线通信和人工智能领域都获得了许多研究兴趣。这是因为深度学习技术已被确定为构成5G体系结构的5G技术的潜在驱动力。因此，关于5G架构和深度学习的融合进行了广泛的调查。但是，大多数现有的调查论文主要集中于深度学习如何与特定的5G技术融合，因此，不涵盖5G架构的全部范围。尽管最近有一份调查文件似乎很强大，但对该论文的评论表明，它的结构不佳，无法专门涵盖深度学习和5G技术的收敛性。因此，本文概述了关键5G技术和深度学习的融合。讨论了这种融合面临的挑战。此外，还讨论了对未来6G体系结构的简要概述，以及如何与深度学习进行融合。

In recent years, the exponential proliferation of smart devices with their intelligent applications poses severe challenges on conventional cellular networks. Such challenges can be potentially overcome by integrating communication, computing, caching, and control (i4C) technologies. In this survey, we first give a snapshot of different aspects of the i4C, comprising background, motivation, leading technological enablers, potential applications, and use cases. Next, we describe different models of communication, computing, caching, and control (4C) to lay the foundation of the integration approach. We review current state-of-the-art research efforts related to the i4C, focusing on recent trends of both conventional and artificial intelligence (AI)-based integration approaches. We also highlight the need for intelligence in resources integration. Then, we discuss integration of sensing and communication (ISAC) and classify the integration approaches into various classes. Finally, we propose open challenges and present future research directions for beyond 5G networks, such as 6G.

互联网连接系统的指数增长产生了许多挑战，例如频谱短缺问题，需要有效的频谱共享（SS）解决方案。复杂和动态的SS系统可以接触不同的潜在安全性和隐私问题，需要保护机制是自适应，可靠和可扩展的。基于机器学习（ML）的方法经常提议解决这些问题。在本文中，我们对最近的基于ML的SS方法，最关键的安全问题和相应的防御机制提供了全面的调查。特别是，我们详细说明了用于提高SS通信系统的性能的最先进的方法，包括基于ML基于ML的基于的数据库辅助SS网络，ML基于基于的数据库辅助SS网络，包括基于ML的数据库辅助的SS网络，基于ML的LTE-U网络，基于ML的环境反向散射网络和其他基于ML的SS解决方案。我们还从物理层和基于ML算法的相应防御策略的安全问题，包括主要用户仿真（PUE）攻击，频谱感测数据伪造（SSDF）攻击，干扰攻击，窃听攻击和隐私问题。最后，还给出了对ML基于ML的开放挑战的广泛讨论。这种全面的审查旨在为探索新出现的ML的潜力提供越来越复杂的SS及其安全问题，提供基础和促进未来的研究。

作为Shannon Paradigm的突破的语义通信旨在成功传输由源传送的语义信息，而不是每种单个符号或位的准确接收，而不管其含义如何。本文提供了关于语义通信的概述。在简要审查Shannon信息理论之后，我们讨论了深入学习的理论，框架和系统设计的语义通信。不同于用于测量传统通信系统的符号/误码率，还讨论了语义通信的新性能度量。这篇文章由几个开放问题结束。

无线电接入网络（RAN）技术继续见证巨大的增长，开放式运行越来越最近的势头。在O-RAN规范中，RAN智能控制器（RIC）用作自动化主机。本文介绍了对O-RAN堆栈相关的机器学习（ML）的原则，特别是加强学习（RL）。此外，我们审查无线网络的最先进的研究，并将其投入到RAN框架和O-RAN架构的层次结构上。我们在整个开发生命周期中提供ML / RL模型面临的挑战的分类：从系统规范到生产部署（数据采集，模型设计，测试和管理等）。为了解决挑战，我们将一组现有的MLOPS原理整合，当考虑RL代理时，具有独特的特性。本文讨论了系统的生命周期模型开发，测试和验证管道，称为：RLOPS。我们讨论了RLOP的所有基本部分，包括：模型规范，开发和蒸馏，生产环境服务，运营监控，安全/安全和数据工程平台。根据这些原则，我们提出了最佳实践，以实现自动化和可重复的模型开发过程。

在过去的十年中，由于分散控制应用程序的趋势和网络物理系统应用的出现，网络控制系统在过去十年中引起了广泛的关注。但是，由于无线网络的复杂性质，现实世界中无线网络控制系统的通信带宽，可靠性问题以及对网络动态的认识不足。将机器学习和事件触发的控制结合起来有可能减轻其中一些问题。例如，可以使用机器学习来克服缺乏网络模型的问题，通过学习系统行为或通过不断学习模型动态来适应动态变化的模型。事件触发的控制可以通过仅在必要时或可用资源时传输控制信息来帮助保护通信带宽。本文的目的是对有关机器学习的使用与事件触发的控制的使用进行综述。机器学习技术，例如统计学习，神经网络和基于强化的学习方法，例如深入强化学习，并结合事件触发的控制。我们讨论如何根据机器学习使用的目的将这些学习算法用于不同的应用程序。在对文献的审查和讨论之后，我们重点介绍了与基于机器学习的事件触发的控制并提出潜在解决方案相关的开放研究问题和挑战。

We present a retrospective on the state of Embodied AI research. Our analysis focuses on 13 challenges presented at the Embodied AI Workshop at CVPR. These challenges are grouped into three themes: (1) visual navigation, (2) rearrangement, and (3) embodied vision-and-language. We discuss the dominant datasets within each theme, evaluation metrics for the challenges, and the performance of state-of-the-art models. We highlight commonalities between top approaches to the challenges and identify potential future directions for Embodied AI research.

The Internet of Senses (IoS) holds the promise of flawless telepresence-style communication for all human `receptors' and therefore blurs the difference of virtual and real environments. We commence by highlighting the compelling use cases empowered by the IoS and also the key network requirements. We then elaborate on how the emerging semantic communications and Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML) paradigms along with 6G technologies may satisfy the requirements of IoS use cases. On one hand, semantic communications can be applied for extracting meaningful and significant information and hence efficiently exploit the resources and for harnessing a priori information at the receiver to satisfy IoS requirements. On the other hand, AI/ML facilitates frugal network resource management by making use of the enormous amount of data generated in IoS edge nodes and devices, as well as by optimizing the IoS performance via intelligent agents. However, the intelligent agents deployed at the edge are not completely aware of each others' decisions and the environments of each other, hence they operate in a partially rather than fully observable environment. Therefore, we present a case study of Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDP) for improving the User Equipment (UE) throughput and energy consumption, as they are imperative for IoS use cases, using Reinforcement Learning for astutely activating and deactivating the component carriers in carrier aggregation. Finally, we outline the challenges and open issues of IoS implementations and employing semantic communications, edge intelligence as well as learning under partial observability in the IoS context.

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a popular machine learning paradigm where intelligent agents interact with the environment to fulfill a long-term goal. Driven by the resurgence of deep learning, Deep RL (DRL) has witnessed great success over a wide spectrum of complex control tasks. Despite the encouraging results achieved, the deep neural network-based backbone is widely deemed as a black box that impedes practitioners to trust and employ trained agents in realistic scenarios where high security and reliability are essential. To alleviate this issue, a large volume of literature devoted to shedding light on the inner workings of the intelligent agents has been proposed, by constructing intrinsic interpretability or post-hoc explainability. In this survey, we provide a comprehensive review of existing works on eXplainable RL (XRL) and introduce a new taxonomy where prior works are clearly categorized into model-explaining, reward-explaining, state-explaining, and task-explaining methods. We also review and highlight RL methods that conversely leverage human knowledge to promote learning efficiency and performance of agents while this kind of method is often ignored in XRL field. Some challenges and opportunities in XRL are discussed. This survey intends to provide a high-level summarization of XRL and to motivate future research on more effective XRL solutions. Corresponding open source codes are collected and categorized at https://github.com/Plankson/awesome-explainable-reinforcement-learning.

内容的离散和连续表示（例如，语言或图像）具有有趣的属性，以便通过机器的理解或推理此内容来探索或推理。该职位论文提出了我们关于离散和持续陈述的作用及其在深度学习领域的作用的意见。目前的神经网络模型计算连续值数据。信息被压缩成密集，分布式嵌入式。通过Stark对比，人类在他们的语言中使用离散符号。此类符号代表了来自共享上下文信息的含义的世界的压缩版本。此外，人工推理涉及在认知水平处符号操纵，这促进了抽象的推理，知识和理解的构成，泛化和高效学习。通过这些见解的动机，在本文中，我们认为，结合离散和持续的陈述及其处理对于构建展示一般情报形式的系统至关重要。我们建议并讨论了几个途径，可以在包含离散元件来结合两种类型的陈述的优点来改进当前神经网络。

大型人口系统的分析和控制对研究和工程的各个领域引起了极大的兴趣，从机器人群的流行病学到经济学和金融。一种越来越流行和有效的方法来实现多代理系统中的顺序决策，这是通过多机构增强学习，因为它允许对高度复杂的系统进行自动和无模型的分析。但是，可伸缩性的关键问题使控制和增强学习算法的设计变得复杂，尤其是在具有大量代理的系统中。尽管强化学习在许多情况下都发现了经验成功，但许多代理商的问题很快就变得棘手了，需要特别考虑。在这项调查中，我们将阐明当前的方法，以通过多代理强化学习以及通过诸如平均场游戏，集体智能或复杂的网络理论等研究领域进行仔细理解和分析大型人口系统。这些经典独立的主题领域提供了多种理解或建模大型人口系统的方法，这可能非常适合将来的可拖动MARL算法制定。最后，我们调查了大规模控制的潜在应用领域，并确定了实用系统中学习算法的富有成果的未来应用。我们希望我们的调查可以为理论和应用科学的初级和高级研究人员提供洞察力和未来的方向。
