An edge-based system can facilitate a flexible processing of tasks over heterogeneous resources. Hence, computation offloading is the key technique for systematic service improvement. However, with the proliferation of devices, traditional approaches have clear limits in handling dynamic and heterogeneous systems at scale. Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL), as a promising alternative, has shown great potential with powerful high-dimensional perception and decision-making capability to enable intelligent offloading, but the great complexity in DRL-based algorithm design turns out to be an obstacle. In light of this, this survey provides a comprehensive view of DRL-based approaches to computation offloading in edge computing systems. We cover state-of-the-art advances by delving into the fundamental elements of DRL algorithm design with focuses on the target environmental factors, Markov Decision Process (MDP) model construction, and refined learning strategies. Based on our investigation, several open challenges are further highlighted from both the perspective of algorithm design and realistic requirements that deserve more attention in future research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48633,"journal":{"name":"Computer Science Review","volume":"53 ","pages":"Article 100656"},"PeriodicalIF":13.3,"publicationDate":"2024-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141485434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While there has been a focus on improving the quality of SLRs in terms of the process, it remains unclear if this emphasis on rigor has also led to an increase in relevance. This study introduces Citation Context Analysis for SLRs as a method to go beyond simple citation counting by examining the reasons behind citations. To achieve this, we propose the Resonance Scheme, which characterizes how referring papers use SLRs based on the outputs that SLRs can provide, either backward-oriented (such as synthesis or aggregating evidence) or forward-oriented (such as theory building or identifying research gaps). A proof-of-concept demonstrates that most referring papers appreciate SLRs for their synthesis efforts, while only a small number refer to forward-oriented outputs. This approach is expected to be useful for three stakeholders. First, SLR producers can use the scheme to capture the contributions of their SLRs. Second, SLR consumers, such as Ph.D. students looking for research gaps, can easily identify the contributions of interest. Third, SLR reviewers can use the scheme as a tool to assess the contributions that merit SLR publication.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":48633,"journal":{"name":"Computer Science Review","volume":"53 ","pages":"Article 100649"},"PeriodicalIF":12.9,"publicationDate":"2024-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141423843","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While finding the pattern within the analyzed data represents the main task. This is performed by extracting representative features step, which is proceeded using the statistical algorithms or using some specific filters. However, the selection of useful features from large-scale data represented a crucial challenge. Now, with the development of convolution neural networks (CNNs), feature extraction operation has become more automatic and easier. CNNs allow to work on large-scale size of data, as well as cover different scenarios for a specific task. For computer vision tasks, convolutional networks are used to extract features and also for the other parts of a deep learning model. The selection of a suitable network for feature extraction or the other parts of a DL model is not random work. So, the implementation of such a model can be related to the target task as well as its computational complexity. Many networks have been proposed and become famous networks used for any DL models in any AI task. These networks are exploited for feature extraction or at the beginning of any DL model which is named backbones. A backbone is a known network trained and demonstrates its effectiveness. In this paper, an overview of the existing backbones, e.g. VGGs, ResNets, DenseNet, etc, is given with a detailed description. Also, a couple of computer vision tasks are discussed by providing a review of each task regarding the backbones used.
