Curriculum Learning for Goal-Oriented Semantic Communications with a Common Language

Understand

Goal-oriented semantic communication will be a pillar of next-generation wireless networks.

• Despite significant recent efforts in this area, most prior works are focused on specific data types (e.g., image or audio), and they ignore the goal and effectiveness aspects of semantic transmissions.
• In contrast, in this paper, a holistic goal-oriented semantic communication framework is proposed to enable a speaker and a listener to cooperatively execute a set of sequential tasks in a dynamic environment.
• A common language based on a hierarchical belief set is proposed to enable semantic communications between speaker and listener.
