In this context, traditional phased-array radar (PAR) faces the dilemma of limited tracking resources and filter model mismatch. To address these issues, this paper proposes a heterogeneous time resource arrangement (HTRA) and refined tracking (RT) method. Firstly, to mitigate the impact of maneuvering model mismatch, we modify the traditional strong tracking filter by considering the effect of different measurements on the correction of the maneuvering model, and formulate the RT method as an optimization problem according to the residual consistency criterion. Then, to properly allocate and arrange limited time resources, by defining a multidimensional time resource vector, we adopt the posterior estimate covariance from RT as a performance metric, and design a performance-driven HTRA framework to achieve time assignment under model mismatch conditions. Simulation results demonstrate that, compared to traditional approaches, the joint HTRA and RT strategy significantly enhance the tracking performance of complex targets within a given time resource budget.","PeriodicalId":13330,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing","volume":"73 ","pages":"3362-3377"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145100415","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, we put forth a recursive momentum-based accelerated successive convex approximation (SCA) algorithm. At each iteration, the proposed algorithm entails constructing convex surrogates of the stochastic objective and the constraint functions, and solving the resulting convex optimization problem. A recursive update rule is employed to track the gradient of the stochastic objective function, which contributes to variance reduction and hence accelerates the algorithm convergence. A key ingredient of the proof is a new parameterized version of the standard Mangasarian-Fromowitz Constraints Qualification, that allows us to bound the dual variables and hence obtain problem-dependent bounds on the rate at which the iterates approach an <inline-formula><tex-math>$epsilon$</tex-math></inline-formula>-stationary point. Remarkably, the proposed algorithm achieves near-optimal stochastic first-order (SFO) complexity with adaptive step sizes closely matching that achieved by state-of-the-art stochastic optimization algorithms for solving unconstrained problems. As an example, we detail an obstacle-avoiding trajectory optimization problem that can be solved using the proposed algorithm and show that its performance is superior to that of the existing algorithms used for trajectory optimization. The performance of the proposed algorithm is also shown to be comparable to that of a specialized sparse classification algorithm applied to a binary classification problem.","PeriodicalId":13330,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing","volume":"73 ","pages":"3331-3345"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144850545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The concept of edge computing proposes shifting signal and data analysis from centralized servers close to the sensors, providing reduction in data communication bandwidth requirements and centralized server computation load as well as improving data privacy. Previous works in the domain of edge computing have paid little attention to formal modeling of computing across devices. This work proposes the VR-PRUNE-E model of computation that is based on the well-known dataflow abstraction. Within VR-PRUNE-E, a specific type of resilient network graph is introduced, which allows the distributed system to continue its operation after the failure of any single node or connection. Besides the formal model, the manuscript introduces the Edge-PRUNE software framework that supports the proposed dataflow abstraction, as well as concrete experimental results on real edge computing scenarios. The explored setups cover networks with up to 128 endpoint nodes and two servers. Application examples cover popular machine learning applications of image classification, object detection and radar signal processing, built on CNN and transformer architectures, extended with redundant system configurations that provide fault tolerance. The proposed work is also benchmarked in terms of processing time and shown to outperform previous work by 34% in computation efficiency.","PeriodicalId":13330,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing","volume":"73 ","pages":"3302-3315"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-08-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11123706","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144850543","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
