This paper analyzes the predictions of image captioning models with attention mechanisms beyond visualizing the attention itself. We compare the interpretability of attention heatmaps systematically against the explanations. We demonstrate that...

Precise  position  information  is  considered  as  the main  enabler  for  the  implementation  of  smart  manufacturing systems  in  Industry  4.0.  In ...

We report on the first real-time experiments with distributed MIMO and multiple users for LiFi. MIMO mode switching and angular diversity are beneficial for robust-ness. Multiuser multiplexing helps in scenarios where users have complementary...

This  paper  shows  the  feasibility  of  a  networked LiFi  system  using  a  distributed  multiple-input  multiple-output(MIMO)  link  for  optical ...

We propose a novel Deep Convolutional Neural Network formulation for network-wide QoT classification tasks and show its effectiveness for networks with significant topological differences. Our formulation achieves ~99% accuracy on large and...

We demonstrate the development of a QoT classifier over an autonomous machine-learning pipeline, the trading of the classifier over a federated marketplace, and eventually its deployment in the customer’s network as a cloud-native...

We report the automated deployment of 5G services across a latency-aware, semi-disaggregated, and virtualized metro network. We summarize the key findings in a detailed analysis of end-to-end latency, ! service setup time, and soft-failure...

We demonstrate an LED-based optical wireless link for fixed wireless access applications, at data rates of 1.5 Gbit/s over 50 m. The design is robust against vibration and the infrastructure module can be deployed, e.g., at a lamppost with no...

Safe operation of driver assistance systems remains a challenge, especially at higher speeds. It requires sensor technology that is capable of detecting surrounding conditions even at large distances. LiDAR technology is a cornerstone of this...

In this paper, we introduce and validate two different hyperspectral intraoperative imaging setups and their use for the analysis of optical tissue properties. First, we present an improved multispectral filter-wheel setup integrated into a fully...
