A Determinantal Identity for the Permanent of a Rank 2 Matrix

We prove an identity relating the permanent of a rank 2 matrix and the determinants of its Hadamard powers. When viewed in the right way, the resulting formula looks strikingly similar to an identity of Carlitz and Levine, suggesting the possibility that t ...

Principal Component Analysis By Optimization Of Symmetric Functions Has No Spurious Local Optima

Armin Eftekhari

Principal component analysis (PCA) finds the best linear representation of data and is an indispensable tool in many learning and inference tasks. Classically, principal components of a dataset are interpreted as the directions that preserve most of its "e ...

Quasi-Rayleigh model for modeling hysteresis of piezoelectric actuators

Dragan Damjanovic, Meng Zhang

Piezoelectric actuators (PEAs) have been widely used in nano-positioning applications for their high resolution of displacement. However, hysteresis, which is an inherent property of ferroelectric PEAs has been shown to significantly degrade the system per ...

Function Computation over Networks

Chien-Yi Wang

This thesis looks at efficient information processing for two network applications: content delivery with caching and collecting summary statistics in wireless sensor networks. Both applications are studied under the same paradigm: function computation ove ...

Maximizing Symmetric Submodular Functions

Moran Feldman

Symmetric submodular functions are an important family of submodular functions capturing many interesting cases including cut functions of graphs and hypergraphs. In this work, we identify submodular maximization problems for which one can get a better app ...

Computing in social networks

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Kévin Clément Huguenin, Andrei Giurgiu

This paper defines the problem of Scalable Secure computing in a Social network: we call it the S-3 problem. In short, nodes, directly reflecting on associated users, need to compute a symmetric function f : V-n -> U of their inputs in a set of constant si ...

Silence-Based Communication

Christina Fragouli

Communication complexity---the minimum amount of communication required---of computing a function of data held by several parties is studied. A communication model where silence is used to convey information is introduced. For this model the worst-case and ...

Short Basis Functions for Constant-Variance Interpolation

Michaël Unser, Philippe Thévenaz, Thierry Blu

An interpolation model is a necessary ingredient of intensity-based registration methods. The properties of such a model depend entirely on its basis function, which has been traditionally characterized by features such as its order of approximation and it ...

Multiwavelet-Like Bases for High Quality Image Interpolation

Michaël Unser, Thierry Blu

We present a simple but generalized interpolation method for digital images that uses multiwavelet-like basis functions. Most of interpolation methods uses only one symmetric basis function; for example, standard and shifted piecewise-linear interpolations ...
