Sampling graph colorings via local Markov chains is a central problem in approximate counting and Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). We address the problem of sampling a random $k$-coloring of a graph w…
We prove two results on the mixing times of Markov chains for two-spin systems. First, we show that the Glauber dynamics mixes in polynomial time for the Gibbs distributions of antiferromagnetic two-s…
Dynamic fading channels are modeled at two fundamentally different levels of abstraction. At the physical layer, the standard representation is a correlated Gaussian process, such as the dB-domain sig…
We show polylogarithmic mixing time bounds for the alternating-scan sampler for positively weighted restricted Boltzmann machines. This is done via analysing the same chain and the Glauber dynamics fo…
Self-supervised learning (SSL) has advanced speech processing. However, existing speech SSL methods typically assume a single sampling rate and struggle with mixed-rate data due to temporal resolution…
We study error-correcting codes in the space $\mathcal{S}_{n,q}$ of length-$n$ multisets over a $q$-ary alphabet under the deletion metric, motivated by permutation channels in which ordering is compl…
Zero-knowledge codes, introduced by Decatur, Goldreich, and Ron (ePrint 1997), are error-correcting codes in which few codeword symbols reveal no information about the encoded message, and have been e…
We study power allocation over $N$ parallel Gaussian channels, such as OFDM subcarriers, when each channel has a desired target spectral efficiency. Given channel gain-to-noise coefficients $a_i>0$ an…
Self-supervised learning (SSL) underpins modern audio deepfake detection, yet most prior work centers on a single large wav2vec2-XLSR backbone, leaving compact under studied. We present RAPTOR, Repres…
Sum-rank codes have wide applications in multishot network coding, distributed storage and the construction of space-time codes. Asymptotically good sequences of linearized algebraic geometry sum-rank…
The CAP theorem is routinely treated as a systems law: under network partition, a replicated service must sacrifice either consistency or availability. The theorem is correct within its standard async…
Both the antiferromagnetic Ising model and the hard-core model could be said to be tractable on line graphs of bounded degree. For example, Glauber dynamics is rapidly mixing in both cases. In the cas…
Linear codes over finite fields parameterized by functions have proven to be a powerful tool in coding theory, yielding optimal and few-weight codes with significant applications in secret sharing, au…
Antiferromagnetic Tunnel Junctions (AFMTJs) enable picosecond switching and femtojoule writes through ultrafast sublattice dynamics. We present the first end-to-end AFMTJ simulation framework integrat…
Motivated by applications in in-vivo DNA storage, we study codes for correcting duplications. A reverse-complement duplication of length $k$ is the insertion of the reversed and complemented copy of a…
Web attack detection is the first line of defense for securing web applications, designed to preemptively identify malicious activities. Deep learning-based approaches are increasingly popular for the…
Continuum Glauber dynamics is a spatial birth-death process whose stationary distribution is a Gibbs distribution. We establish a spectral gap for Continuum Glauber dynamics applied to Gibbs point pro…
The Gilbert--Varshamov (GV) bound is a central benchmark in coding theory, establishing existential guarantees for error-correcting codes and serving as a baseline for both Hamming and quantum fault-t…
We propose a random coding technique for joint source-channel coding of discrete memoryless sources and channels. The approach builds on the random Gilbert-Varshamov code construction of Somekh-Baruch…
We study the problem of constructing explicit codes whose rate and distance match the Gilbert-Varshamov bound in the low-rate, high-distance regime. In 2017, Ta-Shma gave an explicit family of codes w…
