Social Opinion Formation and Decision Making Under Communication Trends

Ali H. Sayed, Mert Kayaalp, Virginia Bordignon

This work studies the learning process over social networks under partial and random information sharing. In traditional social learning models, agents exchange full belief information with each other while trying to infer the true state of nature. We stud ...

A First-in-Human Randomized Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, and Neutralization Profile of Two Investigational Long-Acting Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Monoclonal Antibodies

Didier Trono, Norman Lionel Moullan

Introduction: COVID-19 remains a significant risk for the immunocompromised given their lower responsiveness to vaccination or infection. Therefore, passive immunity through long-acting monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) offers a needed approach for pre-exposure ...

Biases in Information Selection and Processing: Survey Evidence from the Pandemic

Andreas Fuster

We conduct two survey experiments to study which information people choose to consume and how it affects their beliefs. In the first experiment, respondents choose between optimistic and pessimistic article headlines related to the COVID-19 pandemic and ar ...

Euclid: Improving the efficiency of weak lensing shear bias calibration

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Malte Tewes, Yi Wang, Richard Massey, Marcello Farina

To obtain an accurate cosmological inference from upcoming weak lensing surveys such as the one conducted by Euclid, the shear measurement requires calibration using galaxy image simulations. As it typically requires millions of simulated galaxy images and ...

An Asymmetric Perturbation Signal for Enhanced Perturbation Injection Capabilities of a Grid-Connected Converter

Drazen Dujic, Andrea Cervone, Jules Christian Georges Macé

Impedance estimation is an important tool for grid- converter interaction evaluation. Using existing grid-connected converters for perturbation injection enables grid impedance estimation during operation without additional hardware (namely dedicated pertu ...

Modelling and design of CMOS SPAD sensors for quantum random number generation

Pouyan Keshavarzian

Modern digital connectivity has necessitated the creation of robust methods for securely storing and transferring data. At the heart of all security infrastructure is the random number generator (RNG). While random numbers find use in a variety of applicat ...

A 3.3-Gb/s SPAD-Based Quantum Random Number Generator

Edoardo Charbon, Pouyan Keshavarzian, Francesco Gramuglia, Mario Stipcevic

Quantum random number generators (QRNGs) are a burgeoning technology used for a variety of applications, including modern security and encryption systems. Typical methods exploit an entropy source combined with an extraction or bit generation circuit in or ...

Arbitrary Decisions are a Hidden Cost of Differentially Private Training

Carmela González Troncoso, Bogdan Kulynych

Mechanisms used in privacy-preserving machine learning often aim to guarantee differential privacy (DP) during model training. Practical DP-ensuring training methods use randomization when fitting model parameters to privacy-sensitive data (e.g., adding Ga ...

Near-Optimal Communication Lower Bounds for Approximate Nash Equilibria

Mika Tapani Göös

We prove an N2-o(1) lower bound on the randomized communication complexity of finding an epsilon-approximate Nash equilibrium (for constant epsilon > 0) in a two-player N x N game. ...

Revisiting the Indifferentiability of the Sum of Permutations

Ritam Bhaumik

The sum of two n-bit pseudorandom permutations is known to behave like a pseudorandom function with n bits of security. A recent line of research has investigated the security of two public n-bit permutations and its degree of indifferentiability. Mandal e ...
