Rank-metric codes have been a central topic in coding theory due to their theoretical and practical significance, with applications in network coding, distributed storage, crisscross error correction, and post-quantum cryptography. Recent…
In this paper, we propose a data-driven algorithm to design rate- and length-flexible polar codes. While the algorithm is very general, a particularly appealing use case is the design of codes for automorphism ensemble decoding (AED), a…
This paper presents enhanced receiver metrics for joint estimation-detection in short blocklength transmissions, addressing scenarios with unknown channel state information and low or sparse training resource density. We show that it is…
This paper studies the problem of recovering the hidden vertex correspondence between two correlated random graphs. We propose the partially correlated Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs model, wherein a pair of induced subgraphs with a certain…
In decentralized network control, communication plays a critical role by transforming local observations into shared knowledge, enabling agents to coordinate their actions. This paper investigates how communication facilitates cooperation…
Because of their excellent asymptotic and finite-length performance, spatially-coupled (SC) codes are a class of low-density parity-check codes that is gaining increasing attention. Multi-dimensional (MD) SC codes are constructed by…
We consider the problem of decentralized constrained optimization with multiple agents $E_1,\ldots,E_N$ who jointly wish to learn the optimal solution set while keeping their feasible sets $\mathcal{P}_1,\ldots,\mathcal{P}_N$ private from…
Next-generation multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, characterized by extremely large-scale arrays, holographic surfaces, three-dimensional architectures, and flexible antennas, are poised to deliver unprecedented data rates,…
Thresholding algorithms for sparse optimization problems involve two key components: search directions and thresholding strategies. In this paper, we use the compressed Newton direction as a search direction, derived by confining the…
Relative Divergence (RD) and Maximum Relative Divergence Principle (MRDP) for grading (order-comonotonic) functions (GF) on posets are used as an expression of Insufficient Reason Principle under the given prior information (IRP+). Classic…
We present a family of relatively simple and unified lower bounds on the capacity of the Gaussian channel under a set of pointwise additive input constraints. Specifically, the admissible channel input vectors $\bx = (x_1, \ldots, x_n)$…
In Federated Learning (FL) with over-the-air aggregation, the quality of the signal received at the server critically depends on the receive scaling factors. While a larger scaling factor can reduce the effective noise power and improve…
To support the development of low altitude economy, the air-ground integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) networks need to be constructed to provide reliable and robust communication and sensing services. In this paper, the sensing…
We address the challenge of preserving the simultaneity and chronology of sensing events in multisensor systems with wireless links. The network uses temporal windows of integration (TWIs), borrowed from human multisensory perception, to…
The stability of the Ghurye-Olkin (GO) characterization of Gaussian vectors is analyzed using a partition of the vectors into equivalence classes defined by their matrix factors. The sum of the vectors in each class is near-Gaussian in the…
The notion of a normal bit sequence was introduced by Borel in 1909; it was the first definition of an individual random object. Normality is a weak notion of randomness requiring only that all $2^n$ factors (substrings) of arbitrary…
The Fisher metric on a manifold of probability distributions is usually treated as a metric on the tangent bundle. In this paper, we focus on the metric on the cotangent bundle induced from the Fisher metric with calling it the Fisher…
This letter proposes a scheme assisted by a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) for efficient uplink traffic multiplexing between enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) and ultra-reliable-low-latency communication (URLLC). The scheme…
A reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) can shape the wireless propagation channel by inducing controlled phase shift variations to the impinging signals. Multiple works have considered the use of RIS by time-varying configurations of…
The probability simplex is the set of all probability distributions on a finite set and is the most fundamental object in the finite probability theory. In this paper we give a characterization of statistical models on finite sets which are…
