Yuan Ze CSE Students Won Two Outstanding Paper Awards at TANET 2025

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Yuan Ze University achieved remarkable success at the 2025 Taiwan Academic Network Conference (TANET 2025). Under the guidance of Professor Yi-Huai Hsu, the research team earned two Outstanding Paper Awards in the category of Internet and Cloud Technology Applications, demonstrating the department’s strong research capabilities and forward-looking international perspective.

One of the awarded papers, “UAV Trajectory Planning and IoT Device Transmission Resource Allocation Optimization Based on Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning in 6G Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access Space–Air–Ground Integrated Networks,” was authored by Jun-Sheng Chen, Zi-Jun Wei, Zhi-Qi Zhang, and Yi-Huai Hsu. The study addressed spectrum resource allocation and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) trajectory planning in 6G uplink communication environments. By leveraging Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning (MADRL) techniques, the team proposed an intelligent resource allocation scheme that significantly improved spectrum utilization and the service success rate of IoT devices. This work stood out at the conference and received the Outstanding Paper Award.

The other awarded paper, “Task Offloading and Migration Mechanism for LEO Satellite Networks Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning,” was conducted by Mei-Fan Zhan, Yi-Xuan Hsu, Zhuo-Hong Lü, and Yi-Huai Hsu. The team focused on the dynamic topology of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks and addressed the joint optimization problem of task offloading and service migration. They proposed a forward-looking deep reinforcement learning solution that reduced end-to-end latency and energy consumption while improving task continuity and network stability, contributing significantly to future 6G and satellite edge computing technologies.

The award-winning students expressed that being recognized on a national academic stage was the greatest encouragement for their long-term efforts and research achievements. They especially thanked Professor Yi-Huai Hsu for his careful guidance throughout the research process, which enabled the team to balance theory with practical application, deepen their technical understanding, and complete their studies.

Professor Yi-Huai Hsu stated that these two award-winning papers demonstrated the students’ persistence and innovative spirit when tackling complex problems and verified the department’s research strength in intelligent communications and AI applications. He emphasized that academic research was not only about knowledge accumulation but also about discovering innovative solutions to real-world challenges. The students’ success at TANET expanded their international perspectives and proved Yuan Ze University’s commitment to cultivating talented individuals with research enthusiasm and practical skills.

Since its inception in 1973, TANET has been the most influential academic conference in Taiwan’s information technology field, attracting active participation from academia, industry, and government experts. Amidst intense competition, the Department of Computer Science and Engineering’s achievement of winning two Outstanding Paper Awards in the same category was truly exceptional, reaffirming Yuan Ze University’s leadership in next-generation communications and AI-driven computing research.
