Let r : S x S -> R+ be the jump rates of an irreducible random walk on a finite set S, reversible with respect to some probability measure m. For alpha > 1, let g : N -> R+ be given by g(0) = 0, g(1) = 1, g(k) = (k/k - 1)(alpha), k >= 2. Consider a zero ra ...
We consider the N-relay Gaussian diamond network when the source and the destination have ns ≥ 2 and nd ≥ 2 antennas respectively. We show that when ns = nd = 2 and when the individual MISO channels from the source to each relay and the SIMO channels from ...
Polar coding is a recently invented technique for communication over binary-input memoryless channels. This technique allows one to transmit data at rates close to the symmetric-capacity of such channels with arbitrarily high reliability, using low-complex ...
The exponential server timing channel is known to be the simplest, and in some sense canonical, queuing timing channel. The capacity of this infinite-memory channel is known. Here, we discuss practical finite-length restrictions on the codewords and attemp ...
In this paper lossless compression with polar codes is considered. A polar encoding algorithm is developed and a method to design the code and compute the average compression rate for finite lengths is given. It is shown that the scheme achieves the optima ...

Spike-frequency adaptation is known to enhance the transmission of information in sensory spiking neurons by rescaling the dynamic range for input processing, matching it to the temporal statistics of the sensory stimulus. Achieving maximal information tra ...
The plenoptic function describes the visual information available to an observer at any point in space and time. Samples of the plenoptic function (POF) are seen in video and in general visual content (images, mosaics, panoramic scenes, etc.), and rep- res ...

We present a new electronic device – the single-electron bipolar avalanche transistor (SEBAT) – which allows for the detection of single charges with a bandwidth typically above 1 GHz, exceeding by far the bandwidth of other room-temperature single-electro ...
The perception that we have about the world is influenced by elements of diverse nature. Indeed humans tend to integrate information coming from different sensory modalities to better understand their environment. Following this observation, scientists hav ...
We investigate two closely related successive refinement (SR) coding problems: 1) In the hypothesis testing (HT) problem, bivariate hypothesis H-o : P-XY against H-1 : P-X P-Y, i.e., test against independence is considered. One remote sensor collects data ...
