A Bipartite Graph Neural Network Approach for Scalable Beamforming Optimization

Junbeom Kim, Hoon Lee, Seung-Eun Hong et al.

Deep learning (DL) techniques have been intensively studied for the optimization of multi-user multiple-input single-output (MU-MISO) downlink systems owing to the capability of handling nonconvex formulations. However, the fixed computation structure of existing deep neural networks (DNNs) lacks flexibility with respect to the system size, i.e., the number of antennas or users. This paper develops a bipartite graph neural network (BGNN) framework, a scalable DL solution designed for multi-antenna beamforming optimization. The MU-MISO system is first characterized by a bipartite graph where two disjoint vertex sets, each of which consists of transmit antennas and users, are connected via pairwise edges. These vertex interconnection states are modeled by channel fading coefficients. Thus, a generic beamforming optimization process is interpreted as a computation task over a weight bipartite graph. This approach partitions the beamforming optimization procedure into multiple suboperations dedicated to individual antenna vertices and user vertices. Separated vertex operations lead to scalable beamforming calculations that are invariant to the system size. The vertex operations are realized by a group of DNN modules that collectively form the BGNN architecture. Identical DNNs are reused at all antennas and users so that the resultant learning structure becomes flexible to the network size. Component DNNs of the BGNN are trained jointly over numerous MU-MISO configurations with randomly varying network sizes. As a result, the trained BGNN can be universally applied to arbitrary MU-MISO systems. Numerical results validate the advantages of the BGNN framework over conventional methods.

Scalable and Robust LLM Unlearning by Correcting Responses with Retrieved Exclusions

Junbeom Kim, Kyuyoung Kim, Jihoon Tack et al.

Language models trained on web-scale corpora risk memorizing and exposing sensitive information, prompting the need for effective machine unlearning. Prior methods mainly focus on input queries to suppress sensitive outputs, yet this often fails to eliminate the underlying knowledge and limits scalability. To address this, we propose Corrective Unlearning with Retrieved Exclusions (CURE), a novel unlearning framework that verifies model outputs for leakage and revises them into safe responses. Specifically, CURE employs a lightweight corrector that is applied to the original model to verify whether outputs contain target knowledge and to rewrite them if any leakage is detected. To efficiently handle large-scale unlearning requests, CURE retrieves unlearning targets that are relevant to the initial response and provides them as in-context references to the corrector for detection and conditional revision. By leveraging this retrieval augmentation, the corrector can adapt to new unlearning requests without additional training. Extensive evaluations demonstrate that CURE substantially reduces information leakage, even from indirect queries where prior works fall short, while maintaining response quality and general utility. Moreover, it demonstrates robustness under continual unlearning scenarios, making it practical for real-world applications.

Learning Optimal Fronthauling and Decentralized Edge Computation in Fog Radio Access Networks

Hoon Lee, Junbeom Kim, Seok-Hwan Park

Fog radio access networks (F-RANs), which consist of a cloud and multiple edge nodes (ENs) connected via fronthaul links, have been regarded as promising network architectures. The F-RAN entails a joint optimization of cloud and edge computing as well as fronthaul interactions, which is challenging for traditional optimization techniques. This paper proposes a Cloud-Enabled Cooperation-Inspired Learning (CECIL) framework, a structural deep learning mechanism for handling a generic F-RAN optimization problem. The proposed solution mimics cloud-aided cooperative optimization policies by including centralized computing at the cloud, distributed decision at the ENs, and their uplink-downlink fronthaul interactions. A group of deep neural networks (DNNs) are employed for characterizing computations of the cloud and ENs. The forwardpass of the DNNs is carefully designed such that the impacts of the practical fronthaul links, such as channel noise and signling overheads, can be included in a training step. As a result, operations of the cloud and ENs can be jointly trained in an end-to-end manner, whereas their real-time inferences are carried out in a decentralized manner by means of the fronthaul coordination. To facilitate fronthaul cooperation among multiple ENs, the optimal fronthaul multiple access schemes are designed. Training algorithms robust to practical fronthaul impairments are also presented. Numerical results validate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches.

Learning Robust Beamforming for MISO Downlink Systems

Junbeom Kim, Hoon Lee, Seok-Hwan Park

This paper investigates a learning solution for robust beamforming optimization in downlink multi-user systems. A base station (BS) identifies efficient multi-antenna transmission strategies only with imperfect channel state information (CSI) and its stochastic features. To this end, we propose a robust training algorithm where a deep neural network (DNN), which only accepts estimates and statistical knowledge of the perfect CSI, is optimized to fit to real-world propagation environment. Consequently, the trained DNN can provide efficient robust beamforming solutions based only on imperfect observations of the actual CSI. Numerical results validate the advantages of the proposed learning approach compared to conventional schemes.

Deep Learning Methods for Universal MISO Beamforming

Junbeom Kim, Hoon Lee, Seung-Eun Hong et al.

This letter studies deep learning (DL) approaches to optimize beamforming vectors in downlink multi-user multi-antenna systems that can be universally applied to arbitrarily given transmit power limitation at a base station. We exploit the sum power budget as side information so that deep neural networks (DNNs) can effectively learn the impact of the power constraint in the beamforming optimization. Consequently, a single training process is sufficient for the proposed universal DL approach, whereas conventional methods need to train multiple DNNs for all possible power budget levels. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed DL methods over existing schemes.
