A new single-letter achievable rate region is proposed for the two-user discrete memoryless multiple-access channel(MAC) with noiseless feedback. The proposed region includes the Cover-Leung rate region [1], and it is shown that the…
Robust streaming, the study of streaming algorithms that provably work when the stream is generated by an adaptive adversary, has seen tremendous progress in recent years. However, fundamental barriers remain: the best known algorithm for…

We show an eavesdropping scheme on Bostr\UNICODE{0xf6}m-Felbinger communication protocol (called ping-pong protocol) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 89, 187902 (2002)] in an ideal quantum channel. A measurement attack can be perfectly used to eavesdrop…
Motivated by DNA storage systems and 3D fingerprinting, this work studies the adversarial torn paper channel with edit errors. This channel first applies at most $t_e$ edit errors (i.e., insertions, deletions, and substitutions) to the…
Audio adversarial examples are audio files that have been manipulated to fool an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, while still sounding benign to a human listener. Most methods to generate such samples are based on a two-step…
We present a new protocol and two lower bounds for quantum coin flipping. In our protocol, no dishonest party can achieve one outcome with probability more than 0.75. Then, we show that our protocol is optimal for a certain type of quantum…
Reservoir computation is a recurrent framework for learning and predicting time series data, that benefits from extremely simple training and interpretability, often as the the dynamics of a physical system. In this paper, we will study the…
We study the performance of simple quantum error correcting codes with respect to correlated noise errors characterized by a finite correlation strength. Specifically, we consider bit flip (phase flip) noisy quantum memory channels and use…
A dynamic algorithm against an adaptive adversary is required to be correct when the adversary chooses the next update after seeing the previous outputs of the algorithm. We obtain faster dynamic algorithms against an adaptive adversary and…
The existence of adversarial data examples has drawn significant attention in the deep-learning community; such data are seemingly minimally perturbed relative to the original data, but lead to very different outputs from a deep-learning…
The paper establishes the capacity region of the Gaussian interference channel with many transmitter-receiver pairs constrained to use point-to-point codes. The capacity region is shown to be strictly larger in general than the achievable…
We study the capacity of discrete memoryless many-to-one interference channels, i.e., K user interference channels where only one receiver faces interference. For a class of many-to-one interference channels, we identify a noisy…
We consider the problem of designing PIR scheme on coded data when certain nodes are unresponsive. We provide the construction of $\nu$-robust PIR schemes that can tolerate up to $\nu$ unresponsive nodes. These schemes are adaptive and…
We propose a communication protocol exploiting correlations between two events with a definite time-ordering: a) the outcome of a {\em weak measurement} on a spin, and b) the outcome of a subsequent ordinary measurement on the spin. In our…
Two parties with private data sets can find shared elements using a Private Set Intersection (PSI) protocol without revealing any information beyond the intersection. Circuit PSI protocols privately compute an arbitrary function of the…
We consider a wireless communication network with an adaptive scheme to select the number of packets to be admitted and encoded for each transmission, and characterize the information timeliness. For a network of erasure channels and…
Speech enhancement deep learning systems usually require large amounts of training data to operate in broad conditions or real applications. This makes the adaptability of those systems into new, low resource environments an important…

We propose application-layer coding schemes to recover lost data in delay-sensitive uplink (sensor-to-gateway) communications in the Internet of Things. Built on an approach that combines retransmissions and forward erasure correction, the…
