Abstract: A high-dimensional signal transmission method is provided. The method generates M M-dimensional first signals on the basis of M original signals and generates M M-dimensional second signals on the basis of a precoding signal and of the first signals, and finally, a transmitter sums all of the second signals and then transmits by utilizing M subchannels. As such, each subchannel carries information of the M original signals; hence, when any subchannel experiences deep fading, the deep fading is shared jointly by M signals, thus preventing the deep fading from causing a particularly severe impact on any signal. Moreover, all of the original signals can be recovered by utilizing the signals on the other subchannels, thus increasing the systematic resistance against subchannel deep fading. Meanwhile, the system implements the parallel transmission of the M original signals, thus ensuring the throughput of a communication system.

Abstract: The invention discloses a DNN watermarking method, comprising embedding part of the digital watermark in selected redundant elements of a deep neural network (DNN) model—without compromising the performance of the DNN. The proposed method aims for a robust watermark scheme by embedding a large watermark that can span the whole DNN model. If an adversary attempts to destroy the watermark, the whole DNN model will be destroyed. However, maximizing the hiding capacity can lead to degradation in the performance of the DNN model. In this work, this capacity-performance trade-off problem is solved using the Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT). Moreover, the DCT can work more efficiently with highly correlated data. Therefore, this work suggests segmenting the weights of the DNN model into correlated segments to fully exploit the advantages of the DCT.
