This paper is motivated by the problem of error control in network coding when errors are introduced in a random fashion (rather than chosen by an adversary). An additive-multiplicative matrix channel is considered as a model for random…
We consider polar codes for memoryless sources with side information and show that the blocklength, construction, encoding and decoding complexities are bounded by a polynomial of the reciprocal of the gap between the compression rate and…
Since the publication of Shannon's theory of one terminal source coding, a number of interesting extensions have been derived by researchers such as Slepian-Wolf, Wyner, Ahlswede-K\"{o}rner, Wyner-Ziv and Berger-Yeung. Specifically, the…
We consider a wireless sensors network scenario where two nodes detect correlated sources and deliver them to a central collector via a wireless link. Differently from the Slepian-Wolf approach to distributed source coding, in the proposed…
We give a centralized deterministic algorithm for constructing linear network error-correcting codes that attain the Singleton bound of network error-correcting codes. The proposed algorithm is based on the algorithm by Jaggi et al. We give…
The aim of this paper is to prove theorems for the Slepian-Wolf source coding and the broadcast channel coding (independent messages and no common message) based on the the notion of a stronger version of the hash property for an ensemble…
We address the problem of bounding below the probability of error under maximum likelihood decoding of a binary code with a known distance distribution used on a binary symmetric channel. An improved upper bound is given for the maximum…
We study Turing bifurcations on one-dimensional random ring networks where the probability of a connection between two nodes depends on the distance between the two nodes. Our approach uses the theory of graphons to approximate the graph…
Selberg's central limit theorem states that the values of $\log|\zeta(1/2+i \tau)|$, where $\tau$ is a uniform random variable on $[T,2T]$, is distributed like a Gaussian random variable of mean $0$ and standard deviation…
In practice, since many communication networks are huge in scale, or complicated in structure, or even dynamic, the predesigned linear network codes based on the network topology is impossible even if the topological structure is known.…
We study the problem of mismatched guesswork, where we evaluate the number of symbols $y \in \mathcal{Y}$ which have higher likelihood than $X \sim \mu$ according to a mismatched distribution $\nu$. We discuss the role of the…
We consider the distributed compression of Soft Random Geometric Graphs (SRGGs) above the connectivity threshold. We establish the Slepian-Wolf rate region for the SRGG in the setting where there are a finite number of encoders compressing…
In this paper, we revisit the Recursive Projection-Aggregation (RPA) decoder, of Ye and Abbe (2020), for Reed-Muller (RM) codes. Our main contribution is an explicit upper bound on the probability of incorrect decoding, using the RPA…
Epidemiologists and social scientists have used the Network Scale-Up Method (NSUM) for over thirty years to estimate the size of a hidden sub-population within a social network. This method involves querying a subset of network nodes about…
Randomized experiments are increasingly employed in two-sided markets, such as buyer--seller platforms, to evaluate the effects of marketplace interventions. These experiments must reflect the underlying two-sided market structure in their…
Practical constructions of lossless distributed source codes (for the Slepian-Wolf problem) have been the subject of much investigation in the past decade. In particular, near-capacity achieving code designs based on LDPC codes have been…
Withdrawn by the authors due to an error in the proof of the finite field result (Thm. 1.5): The random primes used in the proof need NOT avoid the exceptional primes from Lemma 2.7, thus leaving Thm. 1.5 unproved.
This paper studies the random-coding exponent of joint source-channel coding for a scheme where source messages are assigned to disjoint subsets (referred to as classes), and codewords are independently generated according to a distribution…
The problem of mismatched decoding for discrete memoryless channels is addressed. A mismatched cognitive multiple-access channel is introduced, and an inner bound on its capacity region is derived using two alternative encoding methods:…
This paper deals with the problem of multicasting a set of discrete memoryless correlated sources (DMCS) over a cooperative relay network. Necessary conditions with cut-set interpretation are presented. A \emph{Joint source-Wyner-Ziv…
