Search-Convolutional Neural Networks
2015 · arXiv (Cornell University)
We present a new deterministic relational model derived from convolutional neural networks. Search-Convolutional Neural Networks (SCNNs) extend the notion of convolution to graph search to construct a rich latent representation that extracts local behavior from …

Routing entanglement in the quantum internet
2019 · npj Quantum Information
Abstract Remote quantum entanglement can enable numerous applications including distributed quantum computation, secure communication, and precision sensing. We consider how a quantum network—nodes equipped with limited quantum processing capabilities connected via lossy optical links—can distribute …

Performance Evaluation of Multi-Path TCP for Data Center and Cloud Workloads
2019
Today's cloud data centers host a wide range of applications including data analytics, batch processing, and interactive processing. These applications require high throughput, low latency, and high reliability from the network. Satisfying these requirements in …

Practical Traffic Analysis Attacks on Secure Messaging Applications
2020
Instant Messaging (IM) applications like Telegram, Signal, and WhatsApp have become extremely popular in recent years. Unfortunately, such IM services have been targets of continuous governmental surveillance and censorship, as these services are home to …

Covert Cycle Stealing in a Single FIFO Server
2020 · arXiv (Cornell University)
Consider a setting where Willie generates a Poisson stream of jobs and routes them to a single server that follows the first-in first-out discipline. Suppose there is an adversary Alice, who desires to receive service …

On the Analysis of a Multipartite Entanglement Distribution Switch
2020 · Proceedings of the ACM on Measurement and Analysis of Computing Systems
We study a quantum switch that distributes maximally entangled multipartite states to sets of users. The entanglement switching process requires two steps: first, each user attempts to generate bipartite entanglement between itself and the switch; …

On the Stochastic Analysis of a Quantum Entanglement Distribution Switch
2021 · IEEE Transactions on Quantum Engineering
In this article, we study a quantum entanglement distribution switch that serves$k$users in a star topology. We model variants of the system as continuous-time Markov chains and obtain expressions for switch capacity, expected number of …

Quantum Best Arm Identification with Quantum Oracles
2025 · Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence
Best arm identification (BAI) is a key problem in stochastic multi-armed bandits, where K arms each has an associated reward distribution, and the objective is to minimize the number of queries needed to identify the …
