Estimation from Pairwise Comparisons: Sharp Minimax Bounds with Topology Dependence
Nihar B. Shah, Sivaraman Balakrishnan, Joseph Bradley +3
Data in the form of pairwise comparisons arises in many domains, including preference elicitation, sporting competitions, and peer grading among others. We consider parametric ordi…
When is it Better to Compare than to Score?
Nihar B. Shah, Sivaraman Balakrishnan, Joseph Bradley +3
When eliciting judgements from humans for an unknown quantity, one often has the choice of making direct-scoring (cardinal) or comparative (ordinal) measurements. In this paper we…
An Adaptive Multi-channel P2P Video-on-Demand System using Plug-and-Play Helpers
Hao Zhang, Minghua Chen, Abhay Parekh +1
We present a multi-channel P2P Video-on-Demand (VoD) system using "plug-and-play" helpers. Helpers are heterogenous "micro-servers" with limited storage, bandwidth and number of us…
The Approximate Capacity of the Many-to-One and One-to-Many Gaussian Interference Channels
Guy Bresler, Abhay Parekh, David Tse
Recently, Etkin, Tse, and Wang found the capacity region of the two-user Gaussian interference channel to within one bit/s/Hz. A natural goal is to apply this approach to the Gauss…
