The paper introduces a novel approach to edge-enabled generative AI (GenAI) service provisioning, focusing on customized and personalized AI-generated content (AIGC) services. The authors address the challenges of executing large-scale GenAI models with billions of parameters on resource-limited wireless edges, proposing a joint model caching and resource allocation framework to balance AIGC quality and latency metrics. They develop mathematical relationships between these metrics and computational resources required by GenAI models through experimentation. To solve the problem, they decompose it into two subproblems: model caching on a long-timescale and resource allocation on a short-timescale. The authors employ a double deep Q-network (DDQN) algorithm for the former and propose a diffusion-based deep deterministic policy gradient (D3PG) algorithm for the latter. The proposed D3PG algorithm innovatively uses diffusion models as the actor network to determine optimal resource allocation decisions. Finally, they integrate these two learning methods within a two-timescale deep reinforcement learning (T2DRL) algorithm, evaluating its performance through comparative numerical simulations.

The paper is about finding ways to make AI-generated content work better on devices with limited resources. It’s like trying to get a big video game to run smoothly on an old phone or computer. The authors came up with a new way to balance how good the content is and how fast it loads, which is important for things like personalized news articles or customized social media posts. They did this by breaking down the problem into smaller parts and using special algorithms to solve them. One algorithm uses something called “diffusion models” to make decisions about how to use resources. The paper also compares different approaches to see which one works best.
