Abstract: Techniques for wireless communications are described. A mode for reporting uplink control information may be selected when a first serving cell and a second serving cell are both configured with uplink control resources. The reporting modes may include a mode for transmitting uplink control information over one uplink control resource or over multiple uplink control resources. Multiple sets of uplink control information may be separately generated for different sets of component carriers or different transmission/reception points. After selecting the reporting mode, the multiple sets of uplink control information may be transmitted over one or multiple uplink control resources in accordance with the selected reporting mode. Communication devices may switch between the reporting modes based on obtained information or calculations.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for vector-quantized image modeling using vision transformers and improved codebook handling. In particular, the present disclosure provides a Vector-quantized Image Modeling (VIM) approach that involves pretraining a machine learning model (e.g., Transformer model) to predict rasterized image tokens autoregressively.
