Liquid State Machine-Empowered Reflection Tracking in RIS-Aided THz Communications
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Passive beamforming in reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) enables a feasible and efficient way of communication when the RIS reflection coefficients are precisely adjusted. In this paper, we present a framework to track the RIS reflection coefficients with the aid of deep learning from a time-series prediction perspective in a terahertz (THz) communication system. The proposed framework achieves a two-step enhancement over the similar learning-driven counterparts. Specifically, in the first step, we train a liquid state machine (LSM) to track the historical RIS reflection coefficients at prior time steps (known as a time-series sequence) and predict their upcoming time steps. We also fine-tune the trained LSM through Xavier initialization technique to decrease the prediction variance, thus resulting in a higher prediction accuracy. In the second step, we use ensemble learning technique which leverages on the prediction power of multiple LSMs to minimize the prediction variance and improve the precision of the first step. It is numerically demonstrated that, in the first step, employing the Xavier initialization technique to fine-tune the LSM results in at most 26% lower LSM prediction variance and as much as 46% achievable spectral efficiency (SE) improvement over the existing counterparts, when an RIS of size 11×11 is deployed. In the second step, under the same computational complexity of training a single LSM, the ensemble learning with multiple LSMs degrades the prediction variance of a single LSM up to 66% and improves the system achievable SE at most 54%.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
