Technologies associated with the second-generation of the World-Wide Web enable virtually anyone to share their data, documents, observations, and opinions on the Internet. In les...
Call-by-push-value is a "semantic machine code", providing a set of simple primitives from which both the call-by-value and call-by-name paradigms are built. We present i...
Lossy compression of a discrete memoryless source (DMS) with respect to a single-letter distortion measure is considered. We study the best attainable tradeoff between the exponent...
— This paper presents new lower and upper bounds for the compression rate of binary prefix codes optimized over memoryless sources according to various nonlinear codeword length...
A new "herding" algorithm is proposed which directly converts observed moments into a sequence of pseudo-samples. The pseudosamples respect the moment constraints and ma...
