On the Arithmetic and Geometric Fusion of Beliefs for Distributed Inference

Ali H. Sayed, Emre Telatar, Mert Kayaalp, Yunus Inan

We study the asymptotic learning rates of belief vectors in a distributed hypothesis testing problem under linear and log-linear combination rules. We show that under both combination strategies, agents are able to learn the truth exponentially fast, with ...

Safety in Numbers: Asymptotic Analysis of a Monitoring Problem

Emre Telatar, Reka Inovan

In this work, we introduce a setup where a monitoring entity attempts to distinguish a cheating player among a group of regular players where all players behave in order to maximize their reward. We assume that the cheating player has an "information advan ...

Age-Optimal Causal Labeling of Memoryless Processes

Emre Telatar, Yunus Inan

We consider a problem of labeling a memoryless temporal point process. The labelings have to be done causally. We study the tradeoff between the rate and age of the labeled process and characterize the optimal tradeoff curve. We show that the optimal curve ...

Optima Age Over Erasure Channels

Emre Telatar, Elie Najm, Rajai Nasser

Previous works on age of information and erasure channels have dealt with specific models and computed the average age or average peak age for certain settings. In this paper, given a source that produces a letter every T-s seconds and an erasure channel t ...

A Fundamental Limit of Distributed Hypothesis Testing Under Memoryless Quantization

Ali H. Sayed, Emre Telatar, Mert Kayaalp, Yunus Inan

We consider a distributed binary hypothesis testing setup where multiple nodes send quantized information to a central processor, which is oblivious to the nodes' statistics. We study the regime where the missed detection (type-II error) probability decays ...

Optimal Policies for Age and Distortion in a Discrete-Time Model

Emre Telatar, Yunus Inan, Reka Inovan

We propose a simple model to study the tradeoff between timeliness and distortion, where different pieces of data have a different cost of not being sent. We pose the question of finding the optimal tradeoff as a policy design problem amenable to dynamic p ...

Finite-Level Quantization Procedures for Construction and Decoding of Polar Codes

Emre Telatar, Yunus Inan

We consider finite-level, symmetric quantization procedures for construction and decoding of polar codes. Whether polarization occurs in the presence of quantization is not known in general. In [1], it is shown that a simple three-level quantization proced ...

Network coded multipath and related techniques

Emre Telatar, Arno Schneuwly, Derya Malak

Techniques are disclosed for adaptive coding and scheduling of packets in wireless networks. The adaptive coding and scheduling can be achieved by utilizing a discrete water filling (DWF) scheme. In an example, a computer-implemented method to adaptively c ...

Content Based Status Updates

Emre Telatar, Elie Najm, Rajai Nasser

Consider a stream of status updates generated by a source, where each update is of one of two types: high priority or ordinary (low priority). These updates are to be transmitted through a network to a monitor. However, the transmission policy of each pack ...
