Semantic Communications With AI Tasks
A radical paradigm shift of wireless networks from “connected things” to “connected intelligence” undergoes, which coincides with the Shanno and Weaver's envisions: Communications will transform from the technical level to the semantic level. This article proposes a semantic communication method with artificial intelligence tasks (SC-AIT). First, the architecture of SC-AIT is elaborated. Then, based on the proposed architecture, we implement SC-AIT for a image classifications task. A prototype of SC-AIT is also established for surface defect detection, is conducted. Experimental results show that SC-AIT has much lower bandwidth requirements, and can achieve more than 40% classification accuracy gains compared with the communications at the technical level. Future trends and key challenges for semantic communications are also identified.
