Abstract: A neural network embodiment comprises an input layer, an output layer and a filter layer. Each unit of the filter layer receives a filter layer input from a single preceding unit via a respective filter layer input connection. Each filter layer input connection is coupled to a different single preceding unit. The filter layer incentivizes the neural network to learn to produce a target output from the output layer for a given input to the input layer while simultaneously learning weights for each filter layer input connection. The weights learned cause the filter layer to reduce a number of filter layer units that pass respective filter layer inputs as non-zero values. When applied as an initial internal layer between an input layer and an output layer, the filter layer incentivizes the neural network to learn which neural network input features to discard to produce the target output.

Abstract: Wireless communications are described. A central unit control plane (CU-CP) node of a base station may activate and/or deactivate packet duplication based on status information from self-monitoring, from a distributed unit (DU), from a wireless device, and/or from a central unit user plane (CU-UP) node. The CU-UP node and/or the DU may activate and/or deactivate packet duplication based on status information from self-monitoring, from each other, from the wireless device, and/or from the CU-CP node. The CU-UP node and/or the DU, after activating and/or deactivating packet duplication, may report the activation and/or deactivation to the CU-CP node.
