State Masking Over a Two-State Compound Channel

Sadaf Salehkalaibar, Mohammad Hossein Yassaee, Vincent Y. F. Tan +1

We consider fundamental limits for communicating over a compound channel when the state of the channel needs to be masked. Our model is closely related to an area of study known as…

Risk-Constrained Thompson Sampling for CVaR Bandits

Joel Q. L. Chang, Qiuyu Zhu, Vincent Y. F. Tan

The multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem is a ubiquitous decision-making problem that exemplifies the exploration-exploitation tradeoff. Standard formulations exclude risk in decision…

On the Error Exponent of Approximate Sufficient Statistics for M-ary Hypothesis Testing

Jiachun Pan, Yonglong Li, Vincent Y. F. Tan +1

Consider the problem of detecting one of M i.i.d. Gaussian signals corrupted in white Gaussian noise. Conventionally, matched filters are used for detection. We first show that the…

Exact Asymptotics for Learning Tree-Structured Graphical Models with Side Information: Noiseless and Noisy Samples

Anshoo Tandon, Vincent Y. F. Tan, Shiyao Zhu

Given side information that an Ising tree-structured graphical model is homogeneous and has no external field, we derive the exact asymptotics of learning its structure from indepe…

Asymptotic Expansions of Smooth Rényi Entropies and Their Applications

Yuta Sakai, Vincent Y. F. Tan

This study considers the unconditional smooth Rényi entropy, the smooth conditional Rényi entropy proposed by Kuzuoka [\emph{IEEE Trans.\ Inf.\ Theory}, vol.~66, no.~3, pp.~1674--1…

Thompson Sampling Algorithms for Mean-Variance Bandits

Qiuyu Zhu, Vincent Y. F. Tan

The multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem is a classical learning task that exemplifies the exploration-exploitation tradeoff. However, standard formulations do not take into account {\…
