We examine how to design convergent and correct message-passing schemes, similar to the min-sum algorithm, for maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimation in the case that the messages passed between two nodes of the network may never be delivered. The proposed ...

In networks that perform linear network coding, an intermediate network node may receive a much larger number of linear equations of the source symbols than the number of messages it needs to send. For networks constructed by untrusted nodes, we propose a ...

The classical problem in network coding theory considers communication over multicast networks. Multiple transmitters send independent messages to multiple receivers which decode the same set of messages. In this work, computation over multicast networks i ...
A method and device for predicting faults in a distributed heterogeneous IT system (100), the method comprising: creating a local checkpoint (19) in an explorer node (10) of said system (100), said local checkpoint (19) reflecting the state of said explore ...
With the recent boom in smartphones technology, online social networks are going mobile. This trend urged phone manufacturers and social networking companies to seek novel business strategies to monetize from these new "gateways" and to give the users ...
For most people, typing text on a mobile device requires visual commitment to the input mechanism. As a consequence, there are many situations in our daily life when we have to refrain from using these devices as our vision is already committed. An example ...
Domain adaptation of a language model aims at re-estimating word sequence probabilities in order to better match the peculiarities of a given broad topic of interest. To achieve this task, a common strategy consists in retrieving adaptation texts from the ...
