Differential privacy (DP) is a formal notion that restricts the privacy leakage of an algorithm when running on sensitive data, in which privacy-utility trade-off is one of the central problems in private data analysis. In this work, we…
Open set recognition problems exist in many domains. For example in security, new malware classes emerge regularly; therefore malware classification systems need to identify instances from unknown classes in addition to discriminating…
Federated Learning (FL) typically assumes unconditional collaboration, a premise that overlooks the complexities of real-world, multi-stakeholder environments in which clients may need to exclude one another for strategic, regulatory, or…
We study the stability of network communication after removal of $q=1-p$ links under the assumption that communication is effective only if the shortest path between nodes $i$ and $j$ after removal is shorter than $a\ell_{ij} (a\geq1)$…
We investigate the complexity of the separation problem associated to classes of regular languages. For a class C, C-separation takes two regular languages as input and asks whether there exists a third language in C which includes the…
We give lower bounds on the communication complexity of graph problems in the multi-party blackboard model. In this model, the edges of an $n$-vertex input graph are partitioned among $k$ parties, who communicate solely by writing messages…
We prove a lower bound on the communication complexity of computing the $n$-fold xor of an arbitrary function $f$, in terms of the communication complexity and rank of $f$. We prove that $D(f^{\oplus n}) \geq n \cdot…
Equality and disjointness are two of the most studied problems in communication complexity. They have been studied for both classical and also quantum communication and for various models and modes of communication. Buhrman et al. [Buh98]…
For a class L of languages let PDL[L] be an extension of Propositional Dynamic Logic which allows programs to be in a language of L rather than just to be regular. If L contains a non-regular language, PDL[L] can express non-regular…
This paper focuses on bounding the total communication complexity of collapsing protocols for multiparty pointer jumping problem ($MPJ_k^n$). Brody and Chakrabati in \cite{bc08} proved that in such setting one of the players must…
We investigate a famous decision problem in automata theory: separation. Given a class of language C, the separation problem for C takes as input two regular languages and asks whether there exists a third one which belongs to C, includes…
We consider an instance of the following problem: Parties P_1,..., P_k each receive an input x_i, and a coordinator (distinct from each of these parties) wishes to compute f(x_1,..., x_k) for some predicate f. We are interested in one-round…
In this paper we establish an exponential lower bound on the size of syntactic non-deterministic read $d$-times branching programs for $d \leq \log n /10^5$ computing a class of monotone CNFs with a linear number of clauses. This result…
We study the effect that the amount of correlation in a bipartite distribution has on the communication complexity of a problem under that distribution. We introduce a new family of complexity measures that interpolates between the two…
Traditional Federated Learning (FL) approaches assume collaborative clients with aligned objectives working towards a shared global model. However, in many real-world scenarios, clients act as rational players with individual objectives and…
We present a linear program for the one-way version of the partition bound (denoted $\mathsf{prt}^1_\varepsilon(f)$). We show that it characterizes one-way randomized communication complexity $\mathsf{R}_\varepsilon^1(f)$ with shared…
Half-duplex communication complexity with adversary was defined in [Hoover, K., Impagliazzo, R., Mihajlin, I., Smal, A. V. Half-Duplex Communication Complexity, ISAAC 2018.] Half-duplex communication protocols generalize classical protocols…
The ambiguity of a nondeterministic finite automaton (NFA) N for input size n is the maximal number of accepting computations of N for an input of size n. For all k, r 2 N we construct languages Lr,k which can be recognized by NFA's with…
The purpose of this article is to examine and limit the conditions in which the P complexity class could be equivalent to the NP complexity class. Proof is provided by demonstrating that as the number of clauses in a NP-complete problem…
While the performance of offline neural speech separation systems has been greatly advanced by the recent development of novel neural network architectures, there is typically an inevitable performance gap between the systems and their…
