The 2024 academic session at the Centre for Networked Intelligence (CNI) saw students working across a wide spectrum of problems in networked systems, learning, and security. Topics this year included task-oriented communication strategies, mean-field games on sparse graphs, and Bayesian methods for rate adaptation in wireless networks. Students also explored scheduling algorithms for heterogeneous systems, pricing in multi-agent systems, and strategic decision-making models. Several projects addressed societal impact areas such as AI-driven oral cancer screening and privacy-preserving authentication in IoT platforms.
On the systems side, work was carried out on modeling power grid vulnerabilities, digital twins for battery networks, and fairness in Wi-Fi networks.
