We consider the well-studied radio network model: a synchronous model with a graph G=(V,E) with |V|=n where in each round, each node either transmits a packet, with length B=Omega(log n) bits, or listens. Each node receives a packet iff it…
We give optimally fast $O(\log p)$ time (per processor) algorithms for computing round-optimal broadcast schedules for message-passing parallel computing systems. This affirmatively answers difficult questions posed in a SPAA 2022 BA and a…

We propose a general framework for reconstructing and denoising single entries of incomplete and noisy entries. We describe: effective algorithms for deciding if and entry can be reconstructed and, if so, for reconstructing and denoising…
In the noisy population recovery problem of Dvir et al., the goal is to learn an unknown distribution $f$ on binary strings of length $n$ from noisy samples. For some parameter $\mu \in [0,1]$, a noisy sample is generated by flipping each…
We present a randomized distributed algorithm that in radio networks with collision detection broadcasts a single message in $O(D+\log^2 n)$ time slots, with high probability. In view of the lower-bound $\Omega(D+\log^2 n)$, our algorithm…
Any interactive protocol between a pair of parties can be reliably simulated in the presence of noise with a multiplicative overhead on the number of rounds (Schulman 1996). The reciprocal of the best (least) overhead is called the…
We initiate a broad study of classical problems in the streaming model with insertions and deletions in the setting where we allow the approximation factor $\alpha$ to be much larger than $1$. Such algorithms can use significantly less…

We revisit the classic broadcast problem, wherein we have $k$ messages, each composed of $O(\log{n})$ bits, distributed arbitrarily across a network. The objective is to broadcast these messages to all nodes in the network. In the…
The efficient communication of noisy data has applications in several areas of machine learning, such as neural compression or differential privacy, and is also known as reverse channel coding or the channel simulation problem. Here we…
Many quantum algorithms contain an important subroutine, the quantum amplitude estimation. As the name implies, this is essentially the parameter estimation problem and thus can be handled via the established statistical estimation theory.…
We study a Faulty Congested Clique model, in which an adversary may fail nodes in the network throughout the computation. We show that any task of $O(n\log{n})$-bit input per node can be solved in roughly $n$ rounds, where $n$ is the size…
We revisit the problem of computing with noisy information considered in Feige et al. 1994, which includes computing the OR function from noisy queries, and computing the MAX, SEARCH and SORT functions from noisy pairwise comparisons. For…
This work considers the problem of the noisy binary search in a sorted array. The noise is modeled by a parameter $p$ that dictates that a comparison can be incorrect with probability $p$, independently of other queries. We state two types…
In analogy with its classical counterpart, a noisy quantum channel is characterized by a loss, a quantity that depends on the channel input and the quantum operation performed by the channel. The loss reflects the transmission quality: if…
Sensitivity of deep-neural models to input noise is known to be a challenging problem. In NLP, model performance often deteriorates with naturally occurring noise, such as spelling errors. To mitigate this issue, models may leverage…
