Testing Against Independence with an Eavesdropper
Sara Faour, Mustapha Hamad, Mireille Sarkiss +1
We study a distributed binary hypothesis testing (HT) problem with communication and security constraints, involving three parties: a remote sensor called Alice, a legitimate decis…
Strong Converses using Change of Measure and Asymptotic Markov Chains
Mustapha Hamad, Michèle Wigger, Mireille Sarkiss
The main contribution of this paper is a strong converse result for -hop distributed hypothesis testing against independence with multiple (intermediate) decision centers under…
Benefits of Rate-Sharing for Distributed Hypothesis Testing
Mustapha Hamad, Mireille Sarkiss, Michèle Wigger
We study distributed binary hypothesis testing with a single sensor and two remote decision centers that are also equipped with local sensors. The communication between the sensor…
Optimal Exponents In Cascaded Hypothesis Testing under Expected Rate Constraints
Mustapha Hamad, Michèle Wigger, Mireille Sarkiss
Cascaded binary hypothesis testing is studied in this paper with two decision centers at the relay and the receiver. All terminals have their own observations, where we assume that…
Two-Hop Network with Multiple Decision Centers under Expected-Rate Constraints
Mustapha Hamad, Michèle Wigger, Mireille Sarkiss
The paper studies distributed binary hypothesis testing over a two-hop relay network where both the relay and the receiver decide on the hypothesis. Both communication links are su…
Cooperative Multi-Sensor Detection under Variable-Length Coding
Mustapha Hamad, Michèle Wigger, Mireille Sarkiss
We investigate the testing-against-independence problem \mw{over a cooperative MAC} with two sensors and a single detector under an average rate constraint on the sensors-detector…
