Recent advances in sensing and computer vision (CV) technologies have opened the door for the application of deep learning (DL)-based CV technologies in the realm of 6G wireless communications. For the successful application of this emerging technology, it is crucial to have a qualified vision dataset tailored for wireless applications (e.g., RGB images containing wireless devices such as laptops and cell phones). An aim of this paper is to propose a large-scale vision dataset referred to as Vision Objects for Millimeter and Terahertz Communications (VOMTC). The VOMTC dataset consists of 20,232 pairs of RGB and depth images obtained from a camera attached to the base station (BS), with each pair labeled with three representative object categories (person, cell phone, and laptop) and bounding boxes of the objects. Through experimental studies of the VOMTC datasets, we show that the beamforming technique exploiting the VOMTC-trained object detector outperforms conventional beamforming techniques.

Recently, we are witnessing the remarkable progress and widespread adoption of sensing technologies in autonomous driving, robotics, and metaverse. Considering the rapid advancement of computer vision (CV) technology to analyze the sensing information, we anticipate a proliferation of wireless applications exploiting the sensing and CV technologies in 6G. In this article, we provide a holistic overview of the sensing and CV-aided wireless communications (SVWC) framework for 6G. By analyzing the high-resolution sensing information through the powerful CV techniques, SVWC can quickly and accurately understand the wireless environments and then perform the wireless tasks. To demonstrate the efficacy of SVWC, we design the whole process of SVWC including the sensing dataset collection, DL model training, and execution of realistic wireless tasks. From the numerical evaluations on 6G communication scenarios, we show that SVWC achieves considerable performance gains over the conventional 5G systems in terms of positioning accuracy, data rate, and access latency.

Deep learning has been widely and actively used in various research areas. Recently, in the gauge/gravity duality, a new deep learning technique so-called the AdS/Deep-Learning (DL) has been proposed [1, 2]. The goal of this paper is to describe the essence of the AdS/DL in the simplest possible setups, for those who want to apply it to the subject of emergent spacetime as a neural network. For prototypical examples, we choose simple classical mechanics problems. This method is a little different from standard deep learning techniques in the sense that not only do we have the right final answers but also obtain a physical understanding of learning parameters.
