Cross-Packet Coding for Delay-Constrained Streaming Applications

Delay-constrained streaming from a moving platform is of paramount importance for applications such as the remote control of drones, where a low-delay video stream is required in order to provide visual feedback to the pilot while providing high quality vi ...

Streaming From a Moving Platform with Real-Time and Playback Distortion Constraints

Laura Toni, Giuseppe Cocco

Video streaming from remotely controlled moving platforms such as drones have stringent constraints in terms of delay. In some applications such videos have to provide real-time visual feedback to the pilot with an acceptable distortion while satisfying hi ...

Statistical Physics Methods for Community Detection

Chun Lam Chan

This thesis is devoted to information-theoretic aspects of community detection. The importance of community detection is due to the massive amount of scientific data today that describes relationships between items from a network, e.g., a social network. I ...

Universal Sparse Superposition Codes With Spatial Coupling and GAMP Decoding

Nicolas Macris, Jean François Emmanuel Barbier, Mohamad Baker Dia

Sparse superposition codes, or sparse regression codes, constitute a new class of codes, which was first introduced for communication over the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. It has been shown that such codes are capacity-achieving over the A ...

High-Dimensional Inference on Dense Graphs with Applications to Coding Theory and Machine Learning

Mohamad Baker Dia

We are living in the era of "Big Data", an era characterized by a voluminous amount of available data. Such amount is mainly due to the continuing advances in the computational capabilities for capturing, storing, transmitting and processing data. However, ...

Lower Bounds on Active Learning for Graphical Model Selection

Volkan Cevher, Jonathan Mark Scarlett

We consider the problem of estimating the underlying graph associated with a Markov random field, with the added twist that the decoding algorithm can iteratively choose which subsets of nodes to sample based on the previous samples, resulting in an active ...

Multiple-field based code generator and decoder for communications systems

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi, Lorenz Minder

A method of encoding data for transmission from a source to a destination over a communications channel is provided. The method operates on an ordered set of input symbols and includes generating a plurality of redundant symbols from the input symbols base ...

On the Dispersions of the Gel'fand-Pinsker Channel and Dirty Paper Coding

Jonathan Mark Scarlett

This paper studies the second-order coding rates for memoryless channels with a state sequence known non-causally at the encoder. In the case of finite alphabets, an achievability result is obtained using constant-composition random coding, and by using a ...

Multi-round computation of type-threshold functions in collocated Gaussian networks

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Chien-Yi Wang

In wireless sensor networks, various applications involve learning one or multiple functions of the measurements observed by sensors, rather than the measurements themselves. This paper focuses on the computation of type-threshold functions which include t ...

Encoding and decoding of generalized Reed-Solomon codes using parallel processing techniques

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi

A system, computer program, and/or method for encoding data that can correct r/2 errors. The original symbols are transformed using a Fourier transform of length p. Generator polynomials are used to encode the p blocks separately, and an inverse Fourier tr ...

Approximate Ergodic Capacity of a Class of Fading 2-user 2-hop Networks

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Chien-Yi Wang

We consider a fading AWGN 2-user 2-hop network in which the channel coefficients are independently and identically distributed (i.i.d.) drawn from a continuous distribution and vary over time. For a broad class of channel distributions, we characterize the ...

Beamforming with a Maximum Negentropy Criterion

Weifeng Li, Philip Neil Garner

In this paper, we address a beamforming application based on the capture of far-field speech data from a single speaker in a real meeting room. After the position of the speaker is estimated by a speaker tracking system, we construct a subband-domain beamf ...

Fountain Capacity

Emre Telatar

Fountain codes are currently employed for reliable and efficient transmission of information via erasure channels with unknown erasure rates. This correspondence introduces the notion of fountain capacity for arbitrary channels. In contrast to the conventi ...

Fountain Codes for the Slepian-Wolf Problem

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi, Bertrand Ndzana Ndzana

In this paper, we describe one solution to the two-user Slepian-Wolf problem in a certain part of the achievable region using fountain codes. Symmetric case of memoryless compression of two correlated sources is considered and modeled by a BSC channel. The ...

Decoding of chain reaction codes through inactivation of recovered symbols

Mohammad Amin Shokrollahi

A method for processing a chain reaction codes includes first selecting a source symbol which is associated an output symbol of degree two or higher (i.e., an output symbol which is itself associated with two or more input symbols), recovering the value of ...
