Download Time Analysis for Distributed Storage Codes with Locality and Availability
Mehmet Fatih Aktas, Swanand Kadhe, Emina Soljanin +1
The paper presents techniques for analyzing the expected download time in distributed storage systems that employ systematic availability codes. These codes provide access to hot d…
Communication-Efficient and Byzantine-Robust Distributed Learning with Error Feedback
Avishek Ghosh, Raj Kumar Maity, Swanand Kadhe +2
We develop a communication-efficient distributed learning algorithm that is robust against Byzantine worker machines. We propose and analyze a distributed gradient-descent algorith…
On an Equivalence Between Single-Server PIR with Side Information and Locally Recoverable Codes
Swanand Kadhe, Anoosheh Heidarzadeh, Alex Sprintson +1
Private Information Retrieval (PIR) problem has recently attracted a significant interest in the information-theory community. In this problem, a user wants to privately download o…
Logical Clifford Synthesis for Stabilizer Codes
Narayanan Rengaswamy, Robert Calderbank, Swanand Kadhe +1
Quantum error-correcting codes are used to protect qubits involved in quantum computation. This process requires logical operators, acting on protected qubits, to be translated int…
SeF: A Secure Fountain Architecture for Slashing Storage Costs in Blockchains
Swanand Kadhe, Jichan Chung, Kannan Ramchandran
Full nodes, which synchronize the entire blockchain history and independently validate all the blocks, form the backbone of any blockchain network by playing a vital role in ensuri…
Gradient Coding Based on Block Designs for Mitigating Adversarial Stragglers
Swanand Kadhe, O. Ozan Koyluoglu, Kannan Ramchandran
Distributed implementations of gradient-based methods, wherein a server distributes gradient computations across worker machines, suffer from slow running machines, called 'straggl…
