Voiceband modems convert a stream of digital symbols into audible signals and transmit them over the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). The first voiceband modem was developed in 1958 and operated at 110 bits/s. Being subject to international standards developed by the International Union of Telecommunications, Telecommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-T), a body of the United Nations, these modems consistently increased their transmission speeds within the next several decades. Every step in the standards process involved a major development in signal processing and communications, such as various forms of adaptive equalization, echo cancellation, and trellis coded modulation. These contributions approximately doubled the transmission speed every step of the standardization process, starting with 300 b/s in 1962 until about 28.8-33.6 kb/s in 1996. Modem designers invoked Shannon's capacity formula and considering quantization noise occurring at the Analog-to-Digital conversion process in the PSTN Central Office as additive white Gaussian noise, decided that the channel capacity for such modems is about 36 kb/s. Yet, towards the end of 1990s, modems that operated at transmission speeds close to 56 kb/s, known generally as 56K modems appeared. This talk will first give a brief history of voiceband modems, and it will describe how it was possible to beat the Shannon capacity formula with the 56K modems. The underlying modeling process and the related mathematics will be described. A history of the development of the 56K modems will be presented and, looking back several decades, the technological, as well as the economic and social impact of these modems, will be discussed.

Can AI models be like scientific instruments? Modern ML/AI models are incredibly complex: they are expensive to train and use and often lack interpretability. In this talk, I will explore some recent results centered on the relationship between AI models and classical measurement technologies like scientific instruments. The latter are grounded in physics whereas the former are “data driven”: this leads to some very basic questions that we need to understand: how should we measure how models differ from each other and how do they change through training? We can use some tools from "old school" statistics/probability to get some handle on this in terms of understanding variability during training and using AI models as "instruments" to look at other models. While much of this work is empirical, the findings point to some interesting directions for theory and engineering. This talk is based on joint work with Sinjini Banerjee, Reilly Cannon, Sutenay Choudhury, Tony Chiang, Ioana Dumitriu, Andrew Engel, Natalie Frank, Tim Marrinan, Max Vargas, and Zhichao Wang.

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) implement Machine Learning (ML) algorithms that have the ability to address competitive resource allocation problems together with detection and mitigation of anomalous behavior. In this talk, we discuss their use in next-generation NextG) communications within the context of cognitive networks to address: i) spectrum sharing, ii) detecting anomalies, and iii) mitigating security attacks. GANs have the following advantages. First, they can learn and synthesize field data, which can be costly, time consuming, and nonrepeatable. Second, they enable pre-training classifiers by using semisupervised data. Third, they facilitate increased resolution. Fourth, they enable recovering corrupted bits in the spectrum. The talk will provide basics of GANs, a comparative discussion on different kinds of GANs, performance measures for GANs in computer vision and image processing as well as wireless applications, a number of datasets for wireless applications, performance measures for general classifiers, a survey of the literature on GANs for i)–iii) above, some simulation results, and future research directions. In the spectrum sharing problem, connections to cognitive wireless networks are established. Simulation results show that a particular GAN implementation is better than a convolutional autoencoder for an outlier detection problem in spectrum sensing.
