An autoencoder is an unsupervised neural network architecture composed of an encoder, which compresses raw input data into a compact latent representation, and a decoder, which reconstructs the original input from that compressed form. In CSI-based sensing, autoencoders are valuable for learning efficient, noise-robust feature representations from high-dimensional channel state information without requiring labeled data, making them well-suited for tasks such as anomaly detection, denoising, and dimensionality reduction. Key variants relevant to the field include denoising autoencoders, which are trained to reconstruct clean signals from corrupted inputs, and variational autoencoders, which impose a probabilistic structure on the latent space to enable generative modeling and improved generalization across diverse sensing conditions.
