—The fundamental result of linear network coding asserts the existence of optimal codes over acyclic networks when the symbol field is sufficiently large. The restriction to just...
This paper presents a statistical model for expressing preferences through rankings, when the number of alternatives (items to rank) is large. A human ranker will then typically r...
Probabilistic grammars offer great flexibility in modeling discrete sequential data like natural language text. Their symbolic component is amenable to inspection by humans, while...
To save memory and improve speed, vectorial data such as images and signals are often represented as strings of discrete symbols (i.e., sketches). Chariker (2002) proposed a fast ...

We consider the problem of optimally allocating a given total storage budget in a distributed storage system. A source has a data object which it can code and store over a set of s...
