We consider the problem of estimating a Gaussian random walk from a lossy compression of its decimated version. Hence, the encoder operates on the decimated random walk, and the decoder estimates the original random walk from its encoded…

We consider the problem of transmitting a bivariate Gaussian source over a two-user additive Gaussian multiple-access channel with feedback. Each of the transmitters observes one of the source components and tries to describe it to the…

This article presents a novel transmission scheme for the unsourced, uncoordinated Gaussian multiple access problem. The proposed scheme leverages notions from single-user coding, random spreading, minimum-mean squared error (MMSE)…

We consider the problem of transmission of several distributed correlated sources over a multiple access channel (MAC) with side information at the sources and the decoder. Source-channel separation does not hold for this channel.…

We consider the problem of structure recovery in a graphical model of a tree where some variables are latent. Specifically, we focus on the Gaussian case, which can be reformulated as a well-studied problem: recovering a semi-labeled tree…

We investigate two source coding problems with secrecy constraints. In the first problem we consider real--time fully secure transmission of a memoryless source. We show that although classical variable--rate coding is not an option since…

We consider the problem of distributed lossy linear function computation in a tree network. We examine two cases: (i) data aggregation (only one sink node computes) and (ii) consensus (all nodes compute the same function). By quantifying…

A transmitter without channel state information (CSI) wishes to send a delay-limited Gaussian source over a slowly fading channel. The source is coded in superimposed layers, with each layer successively refining the description in the…

For memoryless sources, delayed side information at the decoder does not improve the rate-distortion function. However, this is not the case for more general sources with memory, as demonstrated by a number of works focusing on the special…
