Abstract Predictive Maintenance (PdM) emerges as a critical task of Industry 4.0, driving operational efficiency, minimizing downtime, and reducing maintenance costs. However, real-world industrial environments present unsolved challenges, especially in predicting simultaneous and correlated faults under evolving conditions. Traditional batch-based and deep learning approaches for simultaneous fault prediction often fall short due to their assumptions of static data distributions and high computational demands, making them unsuitable for dynamic, resource-constrained systems. In response, we propose OEMLHAT (Online Ensemble of Multi-Label Hoeffding Adaptive Trees), a novel model tailored for real-time, multi-label fault prediction in non-stationary industrial settings. OEMLHAT introduces a scalable online ensemble architecture that integrates online bagging, dynamic feature subspacing, and adaptive output weighting. This design allows it to efficiently handle concept drift, high-dimensional input spaces, and label sparsity, key bottlenecks in existing PdM solutions. Experimental results on three public multi-label PdM case studies demonstrate substantial improvements in predictive performance of OEMLHAT over previous batch-based and online proposals for multi-label classification, particularly with an average improvement in micro-averaged F1-score of 18.49% over the second most-accurate batch-based proposal and of 8.56% in the case of the second best online model. By addressing a critical gap in online multi-label learning for PdM, this work provides a robust and interpretable solution for next-generation industrial monitoring systems for fault detection, particularly for rare and concurrent failures.

Robust Deep Learning-based Indoor mmWave Channel Prediction Under Concept Drift
The mmWave WiGig frequency band can support high throughput and low latency emerging applications. In this context, accurate prediction of channel gain enables seamless connectivity with user mobility via proactive handover and beamforming. Machine learning techniques have been widely adopted in literature for mmWave channel prediction. However, the existing techniques assume that the indoor mmWave channel follows a stationary stochastic process. This paper demonstrates that indoor WiGig mmWave channels are non-stationary where the channel’s cumulative distribution function (CDF) changes with the user’s spatio-temporal mobility. Specifically, we show significant differences in the empirical CDF of the channel gain based on the user’s mobility stage, namely, room entering, wandering, and exiting. Thus, the dynamic WiGig mmWave indoor channel suffers from concept drift that impedes the generalization ability of deep learning-based channel prediction models. Our results demonstrate that a state-of-the-art deep learning channel prediction model based on a hybrid convolutional neural network (CNN) long-short-term memory (LSTM) recurrent neural network suffers from a deterioration in the prediction accuracy by 11–68% depending on the user’s mobility stage and the model’s training. To mitigate the negative effect of concept drift and improve the generalization ability of the channel prediction model, we develop a robust deep learning model based on an ensemble strategy. Our results show that the weight average ensemble-based model maintains a stable prediction that keeps the performance deterioration below 4%.

Abstract—Millimeter-wave (mmWave) and sub-Terahertz (THz) frequencies are expected to play a vital role in 6G wireless systems and beyond due to the vast available bandwidth of many tens of GHz. This paper presents an indoor 3-D spatial statistical channel model for mmWave and sub-THz frequencies based on extensive radio propagation measurements at 28 and 140 GHz conducted in an indoor office environment from 2014 to 2020. Omnidirectional and directional path loss models and channel statistics such as the number of time clusters, cluster delays, and cluster powers were derived from over 15,000 measured power delay profiles. The resulting channel statistics show that the number of time clusters follows a Poisson distribution and the number of subpaths within each cluster follows a composite exponential distribution for both LOS and NLOS environments at 28 and 140 GHz. This paper proposes a unified indoor statistical channel model for mmWave and sub-Terahertz frequencies following the mathematical framework of the previous outdoor NYUSIM channel models. A corresponding indoor channel simulator is developed, which can recreate 3-D omnidirectional, directional, and multiple input multiple output (MIMO) channels for arbitrary mmWave and sub-THz carrier frequency up to 150 GHz, signal bandwidth, and antenna beamwidth. The presented statistical channel model and simulator will guide future air-interface, beamforming, and transceiver designs for 6G and beyond.

null (Ed.)Abstract—Accurate channel modeling and simulation are indispensable for millimeter-wave wideband communication systems that employ electrically-steerable and narrow beam antenna arrays. Three important channel modeling components, spatial consistency, human blockage, and outdoor-to-indoor penetration loss, were proposed in the 3rd Generation Partnership Project Release 14 for mmWave communication system design. This paper presents NYUSIM 2.0, an improved channel simulator which can simulate spatially consistent channel realizations based on the existing drop-based channel simulator NYUSIM 1.6.1. A geometry-based approach using multiple reflection surfaces is proposed to generate spatially correlated and time-variant channel coefficients. Using results from 73 GHz pedestrian measurements for human blockage, a four-state Markov model has been implemented in NYUSIM to simulate dynamic human blockage shadowing loss. To model the excess path loss due to penetration into buildings, a parabolic model for outdoorto- indoor penetration loss has been adopted from the 5G Channel Modeling special interest group and implemented in NYUSIM 2.0. This paper demonstrates how these new modeling capabilities reproduce realistic data when implemented in Monte Carlo fashion using NYUSIM 2.0, making it a valuable measurement-based channel simulator for fifth-generation and beyond mmWave communication system design and evaluation.

Line-of-sight (LOS) is a critical requirement for mmWave wireless communications. In this work, we explore the use of access point (AP) infrastructure mobility to optimize indoor mmWave WiFi network performance based on the discovery of LOS connectivity to stations (STAs).We consider a ceiling-mounted mobile (CMM) AP as the infrastructure mobility framework. Within this framework, we present a LOS prediction algorithm based on machine learning (ML) that addresses the LOS discovery problem. The algorithm relies on the available network state information (e.g., LOS connectivity between STAs and the AP) to predict the unknown LOS connectivity status between the reachable AP locations and target STAs. We show that the proposed algorithm can predict LOS connectivity between the AP and target STAs with an accuracy up to 91%. Based on the LOS prediction algorithm, we then propose a systematic solution WiMove, which can decide if and where the AP should move to for optimizing network performance. Using both ns-3 based simulation and experimental prototype implementation, we show that the throughput and fairness performance of WiMove is up to 119% and 15% better compared with single static AP and brute force search.more » « less

Impostors are attackers who take over a smartphone and gain access to the legitimate user’s confidential and private information. This paper proposes a defense-in-depth mechanism to detect impostors quickly with simple Deep Learning algorithms, which can achieve better detection accuracy than the best prior work which used Machine Learning algorithms requiring computation of multiple features. Different from previous work, we then consider protecting the privacy of a user’s behavioral (sensor) data by not exposing it outside the smartphone. For this scenario, we propose a Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) based Deep Learning algorithm that uses only the legitimate user’s sensor data to learn his/her normal behavior. We propose to use Prediction Error Distribution (PED) to enhance the detection accuracy. We also show how a minimalist hardware module, dubbed SID for Smartphone Impostor Detector, can be designed and integrated into smartphones for self-contained impostor detection. Experimental results show that SID can support real-time impostor detection, at a very low hardware cost and energy consumption, compared to other RNN accelerators.more » « less
