A Theoretical Framework for Energy-Aware Gradient Pruning in Federated Learning

Emmanouil M. Athanasakos

Federated Learning (FL) is constrained by the communication and energy limitations of decentralized edge devices. While gradient sparsification via Top-K magnitude pruning effectiv…

Sparse Regression Codes for Secret Key Agreement: Achieving Strong Secrecy and Near-Optimal Rates for Gaussian Sources

Emmanouil M. Athanasakos, Hariprasad Manjunath

Secret key agreement from correlated physical layer observations is a cornerstone of information-theoretic security. This paper proposes and rigorously analyzes a complete, constru…

Local Approximation of Secrecy Capacity

Emmanouil M. Athanasakos, Nicholas Kalouptsidis, Hariprasad Manjunath

This paper uses Euclidean Information Theory (EIT) to analyze the wiretap channel. We investigate a scenario of efficiently transmitting a small amount of information subject to co…

Leveraging Noisy Observations in Zero-Sum Games

Emmanouil M Athanasakos, Samir M Perlaza

This paper studies an instance of zero-sum games in which one player (the leader) commits to its opponent (the follower) to choose its actions by sampling a given probability measu…
