Sketching Information Divergences
When comparing discrete probability distributions, natural measures of similarity are not p distances but rather are informationdivergences such as Kullback-Leibler and Hellinger. ...

On Model Checking Techniques for Randomized Distributed Systems
Abstract. The automata-based model checking approach for randomized distributed systems relies on an operational interleaving semantics of the system by means of a Markov decision ...

A general proof of convergence for adaptive distributed beamforming schemes
This work focuses on the convergence analysis of adaptive distributed beamforming schemes that can be reformulated as local random search algorithms via a random search framework....

Learning Stochastic Finite Automata from Experts
We present in this paper a new learning problem called learning distributions from experts. In the case we study the experts are stochastic deterministic finite automata (sdfa). W...

Reliable Networks with Unreliable Sensors
Abstract. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) deployed in hostile environments suffer from a high rate of node failure. We investigate the effect of such failure rate on network conn...
