With the growth of model sizes and scale of their deployment, their sheer size burdens the infrastructure requiring more network and more storage to accommodate these. While there is a vast literature about reducing model sizes, we…
Batch codes are a useful notion of locality for error correcting codes, originally introduced in the context of distributed storage and cryptography. Many constructions of batch codes have been given, but few lower bound (limitation)…
This paper describes a new set of block source codes well suited for data compression. These codes are defined by sets of productions rules of the form a.l->b, where a in A represents a value from the source alphabet A and l, b are -small-…
Computation on compressed strings is one of the key approaches to processing massive data sets. We consider local subsequence recognition problems on strings compressed by straight-line programs (SLP), which is closely related to…
The interest in channel models in which the data is sent as an unordered set of binary strings has increased lately, due to emerging applications in DNA storage, among others. In this paper we analyze the minimal redundancy of binary codes…
Communication over the binary erasure channel (BEC) using low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes and belief propagation (BP) decoding is considered. The average bit error probability of an irregular LDPC code ensemble after a fixed number of…
We consider the topic of universal decoding with a decoder that does not have direct access to the codebook, but only to noisy versions of the various randomly generated codewords, a problem motivated by biometrical identification systems.…
This paper deals with a universal coding problem for a certain kind of multiterminal source coding network called a generalized complementary delivery network. In this network, messages from multiple correlated sources are jointly encoded,…
Current methods which compress multisets at an optimal rate have computational complexity that scales linearly with alphabet size, making them too slow to be practical in many real-world settings. We show how to convert a compression…
Shannon entropy is the shortest average codeword length a lossless compressor can achieve by encoding i.i.d. symbols. However, there are cases in which the objective is to minimize the \textit{exponential} average codeword length, i.e. when…
This paper describes design of a low-complexity algorithm for adaptive encoding/ decoding of binary sequences produced by memoryless sources. The algorithm implements universal block codes constructed for a set of contexts identified by the…
A classic result in algorithmic information theory is that every infinite binary sequence is computable from a Martin-Loef random infinite binary sequence. Proved independently by Kucera and Gacs, this result answered a question by Charles…
Let $P = \{p(i)\}$ be a measure of strictly positive probabilities on the set of nonnegative integers. Although the countable number of inputs prevents usage of the Huffman algorithm, there are nontrivial $P$ for which known methods find a…
Random linear network codes can be designed and implemented in a distributed manner, with low computational complexity. However, these codes are classically implemented over finite fields whose size depends on some global network parameters…
We consider a Shannon cipher system for memoryless sources, in which distortion is allowed at the legitimate decoder. The source is compressed using a rate distortion code secured by a shared key, which satisfies a constraint on the…
The redundancy for universal lossless compression of discrete memoryless sources in Campbell's setting is characterized as a minimax R\'enyi divergence, which is shown to be equal to the maximal $\alpha$-mutual information via a generalized…
Despite strong performance on a variety of tasks, neural sequence models trained with maximum likelihood have been shown to exhibit issues such as length bias and degenerate repetition. We study the related issue of receiving…
We consider the maximum coding rate achievable by uniformly-random codes for the deletion channel. We prove an upper bound that's within 0.1 of the best known lower bounds for all values of the deletion probability $d,$ and much closer for…
In this paper, a fully compressed pattern matching problem is studied. The compression is represented by straight-line programs (SLPs), i.e. a context-free grammars generating exactly one string; the term fully means that both the pattern…
This paper studies the fundamental limits of the minimum average length of lossless and lossy variable-length compression, allowing a nonzero error probability $\epsilon$, for lossless compression. We give non-asymptotic bounds on the…
