Achievable and converse bounds for general channels and mismatched decoding are derived. The direct (achievable) bound is derived using random coding and the analysis is tight up to factor 2. The converse is given in term of the achievable…
We consider coding schemes for computationally bounded channels, which can introduce an arbitrary set of errors as long as (a) the fraction of errors is bounded with high probability by a parameter $p$ and (b) the process which adds the…
This paper concerns itself with the question of list decoding for general adversarial channels, e.g., bit-flip ($\textsf{XOR}$) channels, erasure channels, $\textsf{AND}$ ($Z$-) channels, $\textsf{OR}$ channels, real adder channels, noisy…
This paper investigates achievable information rates and error exponents of mismatched decoding when the channel belongs to the class of channels that are close to the decoding metric in terms of relative entropy. For both discrete- and…
For two-user interference channels, the capacity is known for the case where interference is stronger than the desired signal. Moreover, it is known that if the interference is above a certain level, it does not reduce the capacity at all.…
This paper considers a binary channel with deletions and insertions, where each input bit is transformed in one of the following ways: it is deleted with probability d, or an extra bit is added after it with probability i, or it is…
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:…
In this paper non-group permutation modulated sequences for the Gaussian channel are considered. Without the restriction to group codes rather than subsets of group codes, arbitrary rates are achievable. The code construction utilizes the…
This work constructs codes that are efficiently decodable from a constant fraction of \emph{worst-case} insertion and deletion errors in three parameter settings: (i) Binary codes with rate approaching 1; (ii) Codes with constant rate for…
In the online channel coding model, a sender wishes to communicate a message to a receiver by transmitting a codeword x =(x_1,...,x_n) in {0,1}^n bit by bit via a channel limited to at most pn corruptions. The channel is online in the sense…
We investigate weakly constrained codes, in which specific patterns occur with prescribed frequencies rather than being strictly forbidden as in conventional constrained coding. We propose a capacity-achieving construction of a weakly…
The problem of statistical learning is to construct an accurate predictor of a random variable as a function of a correlated random variable on the basis of an i.i.d. training sample from their joint distribution. Allowable predictors are…
Word embeddings trained on large corpora have shown to encode high levels of unfair discriminatory gender, racial, religious and ethnic biases. In contrast, human-written dictionaries describe the meanings of words in a concise, objective…
An achievable rate region is obtained for a primary multiple access network coexisting with a secondary link of one transmitter and a corresponding receiver. The rate region depicts the sum primary rate versus the secondary rate and is…
Analytic combinatorics in several variables refers to a suite of tools that provide sharp asymptotic estimates for certain combinatorial quantities. In this paper, we apply these tools to determine the Gilbert--Varshamov lower bound on the…
Learned image compression codecs have recently achieved impressive compression performances surpassing the most efficient image coding architectures. However, most approaches are trained to minimize rate and distortion which often leads to…
A rateless coding scheme transmits incrementally more and more coded bits over an unknown channel until all the information bits are decoded reliably by the receiver. We propose a new rateless coding scheme based on polar codes, and we show…
Sparse coding in learned dictionaries has been established as a successful approach for signal denoising, source separation and solving inverse problems in general. A dictionary learning method adapts an initial dictionary to a particular…
