We consider a generalization of the discrete memoryless channel, in which the channel probability distribution is replaced by a uniform distribution over clouds of channel output sequences. For a random ensemble of such channels, we derive…

We consider a symmetric mixture of linear regressions with random samples from the pairwise comparison design, which can be seen as a noisy version of a type of Euclidean distance geometry problem. We analyze the expectation-maximization…

We derive new bounds on achievable precision in the most general adaptive quantum metrological scenarios. The bounds are proven to be asymptotically saturable and equivalent to the known parallel scheme bounds in the limit of large number…

For a class of (non-symmetric) diffusion processes on a length space, which in particular include the (reflecting) diffusion processes on a connected compact Riemannian manifold, the exact convergence rate is derived for $({\mathbb E}…

Stochastic approximation is a foundation for many algorithms found in machine learning and optimization. It is in general slow to converge: the mean square error vanishes as $O(n^{-1})$. A deterministic counterpart known as quasi-stochastic…
