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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
This communication extends a previously reported analytical circuit that models the plane wave scattering by 2-D arrays of planar patches/apertures embedded in a layered media. In this extension, it is assumed that the current/electric field spatial profil ...
