We propose a new security class, called plaintext-simulatability, defined over the public-key encryption schemes. The notion of plaintext simulatability (denoted PS) is similar to ...
— Motivated by video coding applications, we study the problem of sequential coding of correlated sources with (noncausal) encoding and/or decoding frame-delays. The fundamental ...
We use techniques from sample-complexity in machine learning to reduce problems of incentive-compatible mechanism design to standard algorithmic questions, for a broad class of re...
