Abstract
Simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigurable intelligent surface (STAR-RIS) is a promising technology that aids in achieving full-space coverage on both sides of the surface, by splitting the incident signal into transmitted and reflected signals. This paper investigates the resource allocation problem in a STAR-RIS-assisted multi-carrier communication networks. To maximize the system sum-rate, a joint optimization problem comprising of the channel assignment, power allocation, and transmission and reflection beamforming at the STAR-RIS for orthogonal multiple access (OMA) is first formulated. To solve this challenging problem, we first propose a channel assignment scheme utilizing matching theory and then invoke the alternating optimization-based method to optimize the resource allocation policy and beamforming vectors iteratively. Furthermore, the sum-rate maximization problem for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) with flexible decoding orders is investigated. To efficiently solve it, we first propose a location-based matching algorithm to determine the sub-channel assignment, where a transmitted user and a reflected user are grouped on a sub-channel. Based on this <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">transmission-and-reflection</i> sub-channel assignment strategy, a three-step approach is proposed, which involves the optimization of decoding orders, beamforming-coefficient vectors, and power allocation, by employing semidefinite programming, convex upper bound approximation, and geometry programming, respectively. Numerical results unveil that: 1) For OMA, a general design that includes the same-side user-pairing for channel assignment is preferable, whereas for NOMA, the proposed transmission-and-reflection scheme can achieve comparable performance to the exhaustive search-based algorithm. 2) The STAR-RIS-aided NOMA network significantly outperforms networks employing conventional RISs and OMA.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
