Motor-Unit Ordering of Blindly-Separated Surface-EMG Signals for Gesture Recognition

Pasquale Davide Schiavone, Elisa Donati

Hand gestures are one of the most natural and expressive way for humans to convey information, and thus hand gesture recognition has become a research hotspot in the human-machine interface (HMI) field. In particular, biological signals such as surface ele ...

A Functional Perspective on Information Measures

Amedeo Roberto Esposito

Since the birth of Information Theory, researchers have defined and exploited various information measures, as well as endowed them with operational meanings. Some were born as a "solution to a problem", like Shannon's Entropy and Mutual Information. Other ...

The Gray-Wyner Network and Wyner's Common Information for Gaussian Sources

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Erixhen Sula

This paper presents explicit solutions for two related non-convex information extremization problems due to Gray and Wyner in the Gaussian case. The first problem is the Gray-Wyner network subject to a sum-rate constraint on the two private links. Here, ou ...

A taxonomy of surprise definitions

Wulfram Gerstner, Johanni Michael Brea, Alireza Modirshanechi

Surprising events trigger measurable brain activity and influence human behavior by affecting learning, memory, and decision-making. Currently there is, however, no consensus on the definition of surprise. Here we identify 18 mathematical definitions of su ...

Common Information Components Analysis

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Erixhen Sula

Wyner's common information is a measure that quantifies and assesses the commonality between two random variables. Based on this, we introduce a novel two-step procedure to construct features from data, referred to as Common Information Components Analysis ...

Most perimeter control methods in literature are the model-based schemes. However, accurate modeling of the traffic flow system is hard and time-consuming. On the other hand, macroscopic traffic flow patterns show heavily similarity between days, and data ...

Compute-Forward for DMCs: Simultaneous Decoding of Multiple Combinations

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Sung Hoon Lim, Adriano Pastore, Chen Feng

Algebraic network information theory is an emerging facet of network information theory, studying the achievable rates of random code ensembles that have algebraic structure, such as random linear codes. A distinguishing feature is that linear combinations ...

Converse for Multi-Server Single-Message PIR with Side Information

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Su Li

Multi-server single-message private information retrieval is studied in the presence of side information. In this problem, K independent messages are replicatively stored at N non-colluding servers. The user wants to privately download one message from the ...
