The Information bottleneck method is an unsupervised non-parametric data organization technique. Given a joint distribution P(A,B), this method constructs a new variable T that extracts partitions, or clusters, over the values of A that are…

We consider invariant transports of stationary random measures on $\mathbb{R}^d$ and establish natural mixing criteria that guarantee persistence of asymptotic variances. To check our mixing assumptions, which are based on two-point Palm…

We study the behavior of a nonlinear semiclassical system using Shannon entropy and two approaches to statistical complexity. These systems involve the interaction between classical variables (representing the environment) and quantum ones.…

A composition of a nonnegative integer (n) is a sequence of positive integers whose sum is (n). A composition is palindromic if it is unchanged when its terms are read in reverse order. We provide a generating function for the number of…

Universal source coding at short blocklengths is considered for an exponential family of distributions. The \emph{Type Size} code has previously been shown to be optimal up to the third-order rate for universal compression of all memoryless…

We introduce new method for generating correlated or uncorrelated Bernoulli random variables by using the binary expansion of a continuous random variable with support on the unit interval. We show that when this variable has a symmetric…

Many multivariate data such as social and biological data exhibit complex dependencies that are best characterized by graphs. Unlike sequential data, graphs are, in general, unordered structures. This means we can no longer use classic,…

We propose a permutation-invariant loss function designed for the neural networks reconstructing a set of elements without considering the order within its vector representation. Unlike popular approaches for encoding and decoding a set,…

It is shown that an i.i.d. binary source sequence $X_1, \ldots, X_n$ can be losslessly compressed at any rate above entropy such that the individual decoding of any $X_i$ reveals \emph{no} information about the other bits $\{X_j : j \neq…
