C. Hardware-Aware AI
The schemes surveyed in this paper do not make use of any
special characteristics of the hardware available at the host
device, focusing instead of generic improvements based on
limiting the architecture parameterization and/or the number
of training iterations. Larger efficiency gains are to be expected
with AI methods that are aware of the specific hardware at the
wireless receiver, which may encompass different technologies
such as emerging in-memory computing chips.
D. Continual Bayesian Learning
Bayesian learning was introduced in this article as a promis-
ing solution for deep receivers thanks to the potential gains
that are enabled by the deployment of more reliable AI
modules. Another important advantage of Bayesian learning
is its capacity to support continual learning via the update
of the model parameter distribution [24]. The integration of
online adaptation with Bayesian learning may further enhance
the performance of deep receivers.
E. Collaborative Learning and Inference
As mentioned, deep receivers are practically constrained
by the hardware available at the host device. Since deep
receivers are likely to be deployed in environments containing
other, similar, devices, this limitation may be mitigated via
resource sharing across devices. Such collaboration may entail
the exchange of data and/or model information, and it may
be supported by device-to-device communication capabilities.
This idea is deeply connected to federated learning [25] and
collaborative inference [26].
