39、bilities and opportunities.So,what are ChatGPT and GPT?What development journey have theyundergone?And how should they be understood and applied?This chapter will startwith an exploration of GPT large models,introducing their basic concepts,development history,and current research status to provide
40、readers with acomprehensive and in-depth understanding of GPT.1.1.Basic Concepts of GPT1.1.1Generative Pre-trained TransformerGPT stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer,originating from the fieldsof deep learning and natural language processing(NLP).Over the past few years,with the advancemen
41、t of computing power and the emergence of big data,significantbreakthroughs have been made in the field of NLP.GPT,as an integration of a seriesof NLP technologies,emerged in such a context,as shown in Figure 1-1.G:Generative.This indicates that GPT has the ability to spontaneously generatecontent.P
42、:Pre-trained.This indicates that GPT has undergone pre-training and is readyfor immediate use.9/92T:Transformer.This indicates that GPT is based on the Transformer architecturefor language modeling.Figure 1-1 Meaning of GPTIn 2017,the Google team first proposed the Transformer model based on theSelf
43、-Attention Mechanism(SAM)and applied it to NLP1.OpenAI applied thistechnology and released the earliest generation of large models,GPT-1,in 2018.Sincethen,the parameter size of each generation of GPT models has grown explosively.The parameter size of GPT-2,released in February 2019,was 1.5 billion,w
44、hile GPT-3,released in May 2020,directly reached 175 billion.The meteoric rise of ChatGPT was not by chance.It is the result of the efforts ofmany people and a long period of evolution.To understand the development of GPT,one should first grasp the concept of large models and Transformer architectur
45、e.1.1.2Large ModelGenerally,before ChatGPT,the AI models that received public attention weremainly used for single tasks.For example,“AlphaGo”,which ignited the entire AImarket and prompted its explosive development,defeated Go world champion LeeSedol in the“Man vs.Machine”match in 2016,based on glo
46、bal Go game records.However,fundamentally,these AI data models,which focus on specific tasks,canonly be called“small models”compared to ChatGPT.Large models refer to machine learning models with huge parameter scales andcomplexity.The term usually refers to Large Language Models(LLMs).A languagemode
47、l is an AI model that,after training,can understand and generate humanlanguage,and“large”means that the models parameters are very large relative to“small models.”As shown in Figure 1-2,this evolutionary tree traces the development history of10/92large models in recent years,highlighting some of the
48、 most well-known models,withmodels on the same branch being more closely related2.Solid squares representopen-source models,while hollow squares represent closed-source models.Non-Transformer models are shown in gray,and among Transformer-based models,Encoder models are in the pink branch,Decoder mo
49、dels are in the blue branch,andEncoder-Decoder models are in the green branch.Figure 1-2 Evolutionary Tree of Large ModelsBased on this evolutionary tree diagram,we can conclude that Decoder-onlymodels are gradually becoming the dominant models in LLM development,andOpenAI continues to maintain its
50、leading position in LLM.Meta has madeoutstanding contributions to open-source and LLM research,but there is a trendtowards closed-source development after the launch of GPT-3.In addition,manycompanies and institutions are still actively exploring Encoder-Decoder models,suchas Google.Currently,major
51、institutions abroad that release large models include OpenAI,Anthropic,Google,and Meta,with model parameter scales mainly in the tens andhundreds of billions.Up to now,the top GPT large models abroad include ChatGPT,Claude,Bard,and Llama.Among them,after Google released the latest native11/92multimo
52、dal large model Gemini,Bard was officially renamed Gemini.In this globally competitive arena,China is also keeping pace,developing manylarge models,including Tencents“Hybrid,”Alibabas“Tongyi Qianwen,”Huaweis“Pangu,”and China Mobiles“Jiutian”series.Data shows that as of October 2023,there are a total
53、 of 254 domestic companies,universities,and research institutes withlarge models of over 1 billion parameters,indicating that the“battle of the hundredmodels”is transitioning from the previous stage of“being born”to a new stage of“being used.”Figure 1-3 shows some of the large models developed by do
54、mestic andforeign companies currently.Figure 1-3 Various Types of Large Models1.1.3TransformerArchitectureThe Transformer architecture is a crucial foundation of GPT,which is a neuralnetwork architecture based on the SAM and widely used in large models in the fieldof NLP.Its core components are the
55、Encoder and Decoder.The Encoder encodesinput text into a series of vectors,while the Decoder decodes these vectors one by oneinto output text.Before the introduction of Transformer,the mainstream models in theNLP field were Recurrent Neural Networks(RNNs),which used recursion andconvolutional neural
56、 networks for language sequence transformation.In June 2017,the Google Brain team published a paper titled Attention is All YouNeed at the top AI conference NeurIPS,proposing a new network architecture calledTransformer.It is entirely based on the SAM,abandoning recursion and convolution.After only
57、12 hours of training on eight P100 Graphics Processing Units(GPUs),Transformer achieved higher translation quality1,showcasing excellent parallelism12/92and becoming the most advanced LLM at the time.Figure 1-4 illustrates the network structure of the Transformer.It consists of aseries of Encoders a
58、nd Decoders,each comprising multi-head attention layers and all-inclusive connected feedforward networks.GPT,similar to the Decoder part ofTransformer,is an autoregressive model.Figure 1-4 Transformer Network Structure DiagramThe core component in the Transformer is the multi-head attention mechanis
59、mmodule,as shown in Figure 1-5.It requires three specified inputs:Q(Query),K(Key),and V(Value).Then,it calculates the similarity between each pair of Q and K andweights each V based on the similarity to obtain the attention calculation result.13/92Figure 1-5 Multi-Head Attention Mechanism ModuleThe
60、multi-head attention mechanism does not calculate attention only once butdivides the input into smaller blocks and then calculates the scaled dot-productattention in parallel on each subspace.This design allows each attention mechanismto optimize different feature parts of each word,balancing the bi
61、ases that may arisefrom the same attention mechanism and enabling the model to capture semanticinformation at different levels,thereby enhancing the models expressive power andimproving its effectiveness.1.2.Development History of GPT14/92Figure 1-6 Development History of GPTThe development history
62、of GPT can be divided into two stages.BeforeChatGPT,the emphasis was on continuously increasing the basic scale of largemodels and enhancing new capabilities.ChatGPT and GPT-4,on the other hand,focus more on reinforcement learning from human feedback to understand humanintent and provide better serv

67、ning LanguageModels to Follow Instructions with Human Feedback,introducing ReinforcementLearning from Human Feedback(RLHF),and launched the InstructGPT model6.Basic approach:RLHF+fine-tuning training.Enhanced human adjustment of model output.Results ranked in a more understandable manner.ChatGPT is
68、a derivative of InstructGPT,and the two have the same modelstructure and training method.The only difference is the way they collect data.ChatGPT focuses more on interaction in the form of dialogue.March 2023:OpenAI released the multimodal pre-trained large model GPT-4,once again undergoing signific
69、ant upgrades.Basic approach:Multimodal.Context window:8195 tokens.1.8 trillion parameters,13 trillion token training data.Powerful image recognition capabilities.Although the current capabilities of GPT-4 in real-world scenarios may notmatch those of humans,it has demonstrated significantly superior
70、 abilities in variousprofessional and academic exams.Even SAT scores(which can be understood asscores for the U.S.college admissions test)of GPT-4 have surpassed those of 90%oftest takers,reaching the level required for admission to top universities such asHarvard and Stanford.1.3.Current Research S

88、 based on Google BERT.The more Japanese-blooded generative AIs are actually HyperCLOVA,Rinnaand ELYZA Pencil,but HyperCLOVA and Rinna also have foreign genes.HyperCLOVA,initially launched by the South Korean search giant NAVER in 2021,stands out as the first LLM specifically tailored for the Japanes
89、e.It achieved firstplace in all tracks at the dialogue system live competition held in 2021.ELYZAPencil,on the other hand,is an LLM introduced by an AI startup affiliated with the MatsuoLaboratory at the University of Tokyo,marking Japans first genuine public release ofa generativeAI product.1.3.2Do
90、mestic Research StatusMany might believe that Chinas journey with large models began with the“ERNIE Bot,”but in reality,its merely a conversational tool powered by largemodels.Large models were already introduced domestically as early as 2019.In thatyear,large models were extensively applied in drug
91、 development,prompting majortechnology companies to initiate their own large model projects.In March 2021,theBeijing Academy of Artificial Intelligence unveiled Chinas first ultra-large-scaleintelligent model system,“Wudao 1.0.”Subsequently,in April of the same year,Alibaba Group launched PLUG,the l
92、argest pre-trained language model in the Chinesecommunity,which was widely referred to as the“Chinese version of GPT-3”at thetime.In recent years,significant progress has been made domestically in the field oflarge models.From research institutions to enterprises,there has been a substantialincrease
93、 in investment in large models,leading to significant breakthroughs inalgorithms,computing power,data,and other areas.China has produced a batch ofinternationally competitive large models,widely applied across various fields.On March 16,2023,based on the ERNIE large model,Baidu released“ERNIEBot,”Ch

128、 of Things(IoT),the trend ofintelligent Internet of Everything has emerged.Semantic communication is expectedto become the core paradigm of future communication networks.However,existingsemantic communication is limited by the lack of contextual reasoning ability andbackground knowledge.Additionally
129、,training semantic models and constructingsemantic knowledge graphs consume significant time and computational resources.Therefore,improving the efficiency of model training,reducing the training costs,andachieving efficient transmission and deployment of models in networks are essentialfoundations
130、for semantic communication and are critical challenges faced by theindustry.TheintroductionofGPT-relatedtechnologiesenablessemanticunderstanding and representation learning of inputs and performs semantic matchingtasks.The literature13proposes a new AI-assisted SemCom network framework.Byadopting gl
131、obal and local GPT models,in the GPT-based enhanced semanticcommunication system,the transmitter and receiver respectively deploy semantic25/92encoding modules and decoding modules.The semantic models corresponding to themodules are respectively used to extract and recover semantic information.Seman
132、ticmodels are generated based on GPT on the server,and adaptive semantic models aredynamically deployed basedon requests from the transmitter and receiver.Simultaneously,the transmitter and receiver store semantic models in their respectivesemantic model libraries.The transmitter inputs the original
133、 information into thesemantic extraction and representation module to obtain semantic information.Thesemantic information is then converted into bit data through joint semantic encodingand channel encoding and transmitted.The receiver performs joint channel decoding,semantic decoding,and semantic in
134、formation recovery to reconstruct the originalinformation.Factors such as context and communication environment affect therecovery of semantic information,and the semantic decoding module compensates forerrors caused by background factors.This method achieves multimodal semanticcontent understanding

136、Reshaping the Field of Chip DesignIn the field of communication,chip design plays a crucial role and can be26/92considered a key driving force for the development of communication technology.The chip design can support various communication protocols,such as Ethernet,wireless communication,Bluetooth
137、,and Long-Term Evolution(LTE),to facilitatecommunication and data transfer between devices.The chip design can providededicated hardware accelerators,codecs,and signal processors to support efficientmultimedia data processing and transmission.Wireless communication chips havefunctions such as RF fro

147、igent autonomy.Many operators,equipment vendors,and third-party manufacturers worldwide have begun studying network intelligent autonomy,asshown in Figure 2-5,including applications such as network planning,slicedeployment,network O&M,and network optimization.28/92Figure 2-5 GPT Promotes Intelligent
148、 Autonomy in Communication Networks2.2.1GPT Reshapes Network PlanningDue to the expected exponential growth in the number of wireless access devicesin the coming years,operators need to expand the deployment scale of networkinfrastructure to provide the required capacity.Traditionally,the selection
149、of new basestation sites is manually conducted by wireless network planning professionals.Withthe assistance of coverage simulation tools,each site is evaluated based on KeyPerformance Indicators(KPIs),and ranked accordingly.However,when the numberof available site options is large,the traditional a
150、pproach becomes costly andchallenging to accurately consider the impact of each involved factor.AI-drivenplanning solutions can recommend the best locations for new cellular base stations,helping operators reduce network planning costs.To address the optimal site selection problem,Siddhartha Shakya
151、et al.17proposedan AI-based site selection method.Based on this,they conduct network site selection29/92planning by using GPT.Historical spatiotemporal feature data is collected to analyzethe variation patterns of wireless resource utilization rates,and monitor and evaluatethe KPIs of coverage cells
152、.GPT is used to comprehensively analyze networkcoverage,userequipmentdistribution,andscenariocharacteristics.Also,unsupervised ML is employed to cluster cells based on their attributes.A supervisedregression model captures the relationship between different cell attributes,such ascell performance an
153、d user equipment throughput.A simulation algorithm is built onthe regression model to estimate the potential traffic load of proposed new sites.Sitesare ranked based on a scoring mechanism,and thereby selecting top-ranked sites ascandidate base stations.In addition to site selection,antenna design i
154、s also an important task in the basestation planning phase.In the optimization design process of antennas,a large numberof antenna parameters are typically involved,the geometric shapes of antennas arebecomingincreasinglycomplex,andconflictsbetweenantennaperformancerequirements frequently arise.Intr

156、ctromagnetic simulation software,this approach can further enhancecomputational efficiency.2.2.2GPT Enhances Slicing DeploymentThe introduction of network slicing has successfully solved the problem ofuneven allocation of network resources for different service scenarios,bringing greatflexibility to
157、 the network,making it possible to customize and deploy in real time,anddynamically guarantee the network.During network slicing deployment,slices fordifferent service scenarios have different resource requirements on the underlyingphysical network,and there are differences in deployment structures.
158、Traditionalalgorithms struggled to solve the multi-scenario slice deployment problem.By usingGPT-related technologies,it is possible to achieve end-to-end network slicingdeployment while reducing deployment costs and ensuring stronger security.Network slicing deployment involves the placement of Vir
159、tualized NetworkFunctions(VNFs)and the selection of related links.VNF placement refers to ensuring30/92that nodes in network slicing requests can always find corresponding nodes on thephysical network to accommodate the requests,under the condition of meetingnetwork capacity.Compared with the tradit
160、ional heuristic algorithm to solve the VNFmapping process,GPT can analyze the network environment status,intelligentlyadjust network parameters according to service scenario requirements,and makeservice resource demand predictions.By interacting with the agent and theenvironment,specific actions are
161、 executed,the network resource utilization is updated,and the state information in the VNF mapping process is fully perceived.Timelydecisions can be made in response to changing network conditions.As shown inFigure 2-6,GPT assists in obtaining network deployment environments and storesphysical node
162、information as a security feature matrix.An agent is defined as a policynetwork relying on GPT to calculate the probability of physical node mapping.GPTassists in computing the probability of physical node mapping outputting the securityfeature matrix,and then selects the physical node with the high
163、est probability andperforms VNF mapping.Subsequently,GPT selects the most suitable link mappingscheme based on different service requirements,uses network resource utilization as areward function,provides feedback to the agent,and updates state informationsimultaneously.Figure 2-6 GPT Enhances Slici
164、ng Deployment2.2.3GPT Simplifies Network Operations and MaintenanceTypical application scenarios of network intelligent O&M include anomalydetection,fault diagnosis,event warning,and performance optimization.In traditionalnetwork O&M,O&M personnel need to obtain network state information throughmanu
165、al inspection and data analysis,which is inefficient.By introducing GPT-related31/92technologies,network state information can be monitored in real-time and efficiently,and the network can be analyzed and processed through automated O&M,therebyeffectively improving the stability and reliability of t
166、he network.As shown in Figure 2-7,the network collector sends real-time networkinformation to GPT,such as the devices Central Processing Unit(CPU),memory,network congestion information,and network event log information.GPT rapidlyconducts statistical analysis,and then combines various network servic
167、e scenarios topredict the network andprovide corresponding O&M decisions,which aresubsequently sent to the database for storage.In addition,GPT assists in thevisualization of the current and predicted network conditions,better showing thenetwork status and trends to O&M personnel,and assisting O&M p
168、ersonnel toconduct network O&M more efficiently and intelligently.Figure 2-7 GPT Simplifies Network O&MFurthermore,in conjunction with GPT-related technologies,the literature19hascomprehensivelyanalyzedtheunderlyingcomponentsusingintent-driven,communication-network-specific ML models and advanced po

170、atically generates andverifies fault recovery and multitask management policies,and ensures servicebandwidth and network performance through techniques such as bypass routing andresource orchestration.Moreover,it can autonomously perform fault repairs based onlearning results to support network mana
171、gement and state adjustments,thereby32/92promoting autonomous network O&M.2.2.4GPTAccelerates Network OptimizationWith the rapid development of the socio-economy,there is an increasing demandfor access methods of information and content.The service requirements of mobilecommunication are constantly
172、changing and evolving from the initial demand formedium to low-rate voice services to the demand for broadband high-rate dataservices,further transforming into meeting the needs of massive differentiatedservices.Network optimization refers to the process of discovering and solvingproblems through a
173、series of professional tests and analyses targeted at mobilecommunication systems,while also deeply developingsystem potential andenhancing system performance.Its main targets include the core networks of dataservices,circuit-switched core networks,radio access networks,and so forth.Ascommunication
174、network processes and services become more diverse,the pressure onnetwork operations increases,and the introduction of AI will be the key to solvingnetwork optimization problems.Currently,GPT-based network optimization canachieve self-correction and optimization of the network through autonomousdete
175、ction,analysis,and operation,mainly including network traffic optimization,radio access network coverage optimization,and network signaling tracking,asshown in Figure 2-8.1)Network traffic optimizationWith the continuous change in user service demands,traffic also dynamicallychanges.GPT can extract
176、features based on traffic changes,predict their trends,provide optimization solutions to balance network loads and ensure a satisfactory usernetwork experience.It predicts and configures scheduling for areas and times withhigh traffic in advance,and intelligently shuts down part of the base station
177、facilitiesin cells and times with low traffic,thus achieving cost savings and ensuring that thecommunication network operates at its optimal level.2)Radio access network coverage optimizationThe extent of radio access network coverage determines the quality of thecommunication network.Statistics sho
178、w that the total sum of wireless parameters foreach equipment vendor in LTE networks has exceeded 8000,making it difficult toconduct refined configuration based on manual experience alone.Some scholars haveproposed using AI technology to conduct a systematic analysis of communication33/92networks,en
179、ablingprecisenetworkparameterconfiguration20.GPT-relatedtechnologies can be introduced on this basis.For example,when facing coverageproblems with the TopN cells,a Graph Neural Network(GNN)model trained by GPTcan be utilized to construct a regional coverage model.This model inputs featureinformation
180、 affecting coverage,such as base station structure and parameterconfiguration data.Then,through hidden layers,the model is trained and features arelearned.When the algorithm iterates to a certain degree,it can represent the coverageprediction model,recommend parameter values,and guide the adjustment
181、 andconfiguration of wireless parameters through high-level features.Additionally,it canassist operators in incorporating the beam coverage and transmission modes ofmassive Multi-Input Multi-Output(mMIMO)antennas into consideration,resolvingvarious signal coverage differences caused by the different
182、 heights of target usersindoors and outdoors.Fully utilizing the 3D characteristics of mMIMO antennas andenvironmental features can ensure accurate site planning,thereby achieving betterradio access network coverage optimization.3)Network signaling trackingSignaling information refers to control com
183、mands in communication systems,also known as“signaling,”mainly used for processing and controlling communicationprocesses.By processing signaling information,communication processes can bemonitored,managed,and optimized to improve the quality and efficiency ofcommunication.AI signaling tracking meas
184、ures have been proposed in theliterature21,and with the introduction of GPT-related technologies,it can monitor andanalyze a large amount of signaling information to discover potential faults orabnormal situations,thereby understanding the actual operation status of the network.Additionally,GPT can
185、quickly locate faults by comparing normal and abnormalsignaling flows,provide fault diagnosis reports,and achieve automatic fault repair,thereby reducing network downtime and O&M costs.Furthermore,based on real-timesignaling information and user demands,GPT-based signaling tracking can predictnetwor
186、k traffic demand,dynamically manage,allocate,and schedule resources toadapt to changes in time,region,and user type.At the same time,it can also analyzeand monitor signaling information and latency during the user connection process,promptly identify and resolve issues affecting user experience,such
187、 as high latencyand weak signals,to improve user satisfaction and ensure a stable and efficientnetwork environment.34/92Figure 2-8 GPTAccelerates Network Optimization35/923.Communication Networks Enable GPT Ubiquitous ApplicationsIn Chapter 2,we introduced the novel applications of GPT in the field

234、 would significantly constrain business development dueto high network costs.Furthermore,if different services are all carried on the sameinfrastructure and network elements,the network may not simultaneously meet thediverse QoS guarantee requirements of multiple services.Adaptive network slicing te
235、chnology allows the creation of multiple virtual42/92network slices,each being a set of network functions and their resources.Thesenetwork functions form a complete logical network,with each logical networkcapableofmeetingspecificservicerequirementswithparticularnetworkcharacteristics.Through custom

237、instantiation of 6G network architecture.This flexibility enables 6G networks tosupport multiple services and applications with specific performance requirementssimultaneously,suchaslatency-sensitiveapplicationsandhigh-bandwidthapplications.The key is to dynamically adjust resource allocation and co
238、nfigurationbased on real-time network conditions and service demands.When facing high-performance computing requirements like those of GPT,adaptive network slicingdemonstrates its unique advantages.As shown in Figure 3-3,network slicing,as aservice delivery method,can be applied across various verti
239、cal industries,providingnetwork capabilities as per application scenarios and service types,with slices isolatedfrom each other and non-interfering.Figure 3-3 Hierarchical Network Slicing Management43/923.3.2 Distributed LearningDistributed learning will become a vital avenue for enhancing AI perfor
240、manceand efficiency in 6G networks.Distributed learning can expand the sample space,deploy larger models,design global optimization algorithms,and improve theefficiency of network AI development and training.In terms of intelligent services,distributed learning enables interaction among intelligent
241、nodes to share applicationlearning experiences.In network intelligence,it has significant application value inthe most common distributed intelligent decision-making,including control decisionsof general mobile intelligent agents,intelligent recommendation decisions of variousdistributed facilities,
242、event judgment decisions of environmental monitoring,andoptimization configuration of network parameters.In the future,intelligent networkswill form a new pattern in which traditional centralized training supports globalintelligent applications,and distributed learning supports the autonomous intell
243、igenceof each distributed node.Compared to the traditional operation mode of relatively isolated transmissionand computing from end to cloud,the most significant feature of using distributedlearning is the fusion of distributed network computing.By involving distributedcomputable nodes in the networ
244、k,redundant data transmission is reduced,therebylowering system communication costs and enhancing computing efficiency.Federatedlearning is a typical system of communication-computation and network-intelligenceinteraction.In the traditional federated learning framework,multiple distributed nodestrai
