An Uncertainty-Driven Hybrid Deep Learning Approach for Broad-Coverage RF Modulation Recognition

arXiv:2608. 00796v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Automatic RF modulation recognition is of critical importance in spectrum monitoring, electronic warfare, and cognitive radio applications, where low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions and the growing diversity of modulation schemes limit the performance of existing methods.

Calibrated RF-Fingerprinting Under Interference With Heterogeneous Transmission Protocols

The paper presents a calibrated radio‑frequency fingerprinting approach that handles co‑channel interference from multiple transmitters. By framing the task as a multi‑label classification problem, the authors use a 1D CNN and calibrate confidence thresholds to bound the average number of false negatives, ensuring reliable detection of spectrum violations. Experiments on the POWDER 5G testbed with Wi‑Fi, LTE, and 5G NR signals achieve up to 97% accuracy, with calibrated recall closely matching the specified false‑negative bounds even under out‑of‑distribution interference.

AudioFuse: Unified Spectral-Temporal Learning via a Hybrid ViT-1D CNN Architecture for Robust Phonocardiogram Classification

AudioFuse is a hybrid architecture that jointly learns from spectrograms and raw waveforms to classify phonocardiograms. It combines a wide-and-shallow Vision Transformer for spectral features with a shallow 1D CNN for temporal waveforms, reducing overfitting while capturing complementary information. On the PhysioNet 2016 dataset, AudioFuse achieves a state‑of‑the‑art ROC‑AUC of 0.8608 and shows superior robustness to domain shift on the PASCAL dataset, outperforming both spectrogram‑only and waveform‑only baselines.

CIG-MAE: Cross-Modal Information-Guided Masked Autoencoder for Self-Supervised WiFi Sensing

CIG-MAE is a self‑supervised framework for WiFi‑based human action recognition that uses a cross‑modal masked autoencoder to reconstruct both amplitude and phase of Channel State Information. It introduces an adaptive, information‑guided masking strategy that focuses on high‑density time‑frequency regions and employs a Barlow Twins regularizer to align cross‑modal representations without negative samples. Experiments on three public datasets show that CIG‑MAE outperforms state‑of‑the‑art SSL methods and even surpasses a fully supervised baseline, highlighting its data efficiency, robustness, and generalization.
