In this study we consider rateless coding over discrete memoryless channels (DMC) with feedback. Unlike traditional fixed-rate codes, in rateless codes each codeword is infinitely long, and the decoding time depends on the confidence level…

Changing the encoding parameters, in particular the video resolution, is a common practice before transcoding. To this end, streaming and broadcast platforms benefit from so-called bitrate ladders to determine the optimal resolution for…

Quantizing deep neural networks is an effective method for reducing memory consumption and improving inference speed, and is thus useful for implementation in resource-constrained devices. However, it is still hard for extremely low-bit…

Diffusion models have achieved great success in image synthesis through iterative noise estimation using deep neural networks. However, the slow inference, high memory consumption, and computation intensity of the noise estimation model…

Ridgeless regression has garnered attention among researchers, particularly in light of the ``Benign Overfitting'' phenomenon, where models interpolating noisy samples demonstrate robust generalization. However, kernel ridgeless regression…

The use of advanced quantum neuron models for pattern recognition applications requires fault tolerance. Therefore, it is not yet possible to test such models on a large scale in currently available quantum processors. As an alternative, we…

Penalized quantile regression (QR) is widely used for studying the relationship between a response variable and a set of predictors under data heterogeneity in high-dimensional settings. Compared to penalized least squares, scalable…

One of the most significant bottleneck in training large scale machine learning models on parameter server (PS) is the communication overhead, because it needs to frequently exchange the model gradients between the workers and servers…

Mixed Precision Quantization (MPQ) has become an essential technique for optimizing neural network by determining the optimal bitwidth per layer. Existing MPQ methods, however, face a major hurdle: they require a computationally expensive…

Recent advances in neural networks have led to significant computational and memory demands, spurring interest in one-bit weight compression to enable efficient inference on resource-constrained devices. However, the theoretical…

Current per-shot encoding schemes aim to improve the compression efficiency by shot-level optimization. It splits a source video sequence into shots and imposes optimal sets of encoding parameters to each shot. Per-shot encoding achieved…

Video compression is a central feature of the modern internet powering technologies from social media to video conferencing. While video compression continues to mature, for many compression settings, quality loss is still noticeable. These…

Sharpening is a widely adopted video enhancement technique. However, uniform sharpening intensity ignores texture variations, degrading video quality. Sharpening also increases bitrate, and there's a lack of techniques to optimally allocate…

This paper uses the reconstruction-computation-quantization (RCQ) paradigm to decode low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. RCQ facilitates dynamic non-uniform quantization to achieve good frame error rate (FER) performance with very low…

Principal component regression (PCR) is a useful method for regularizing linear regression. Although conceptually simple, straightforward implementations of PCR have high computational costs and so are inappropriate when learning with large…

The widespread usage of point clouds (PC) for immersive visual applications has resulted in the use of very heterogeneous receiving conditions and devices, notably in terms of network, hardware, and display capabilities. In this scenario,…

Common state-of-the-art video codecs are optimized to deliver a low bitrate by providing a certain quality for the final human observer, which is achieved by rate-distortion optimization (RDO). But, with the steady improvement of neural…

The exponentially large discrete search space in mixed-precision quantization (MPQ) makes it hard to determine the optimal bit-width for each layer. Previous works usually resort to iterative search methods on the training set, which…

Computational image reconstruction algorithms generally produce a single image without any measure of uncertainty or confidence. Regularized Maximum Likelihood (RML) and feed-forward deep learning approaches for inverse problems typically…

Recently, deep learning-based image compression has made signifcant progresses, and has achieved better ratedistortion (R-D) performance than the latest traditional method, H.266/VVC, in both subjective metric and the more challenging…
