Joint Optimization of Detection Threshold and Resource Allocation in Infrastructure-based Multi-band Cognitive Radio Networks
2012
[EN] Consider an infrastructure-based multi-band cognitive radio network (CRN) where secondary users (SUs) opportunistically access a set of sub-carriers when sensed as idle. The carrier sensing threshold which affects the access opportunities of SUs is conventionally regarded as static and treated independently from the resource allocation in the model. In this article, we study jointly the optimization of detection threshold and resource allocation with the goal of maximizing the total downlink capacity of SUs in such CRNs. The optimization problem is formulated considering three sets of variables, i.e., detection threshold, sub-carrier assignment and power allocation, with constraints on…
Genomic profile of breast cancer: costeffectiveness analysis from the Spanish National Healthcare System perspective.
2014
Background: Costeffectiveness analysis of MammaPrint® (70-gene signature) in the diagnosis of early breast cancer as a prognosis assay to study the risk of tumor recurrence to administer adjuvant chemotherapy. Methods: Markov model assuming a cohort of 60-year-old women with breast cancer. Treatment costs and effects were assessed by comparing the 5-year, 10-year and lifetime risk of recurrence using Adjuvant! Online® (online algorithm), 70-gene signature or Oncotype DX® (21-gene assay). Results: 70-gene signature showed a life expectancy of 23.55 years at lifetime. Life expectancy was lower for 21-gene assay and online algorithm, with associated quality-adjusted life year gains up to 0.23 …
Online topology estimation for vector autoregressive processes in data networks
2017
An important problem in data sciences pertains to inferring causal interactions among a collection of time series. Upon modeling these as a vector autoregressive (VAR) process, this paper deals with estimating the model parameters to identify the underlying causality graph. To exploit the sparse connectivity of causality graphs, the proposed estimators minimize a group-Lasso regularized functional. To cope with real-time applications, big data setups, and possibly time-varying topologies, two online algorithms are presented to recover the sparse coefficients when observations are received sequentially. The proposed algorithms are inspired by the classic recursive least squares (RLS) algorit…
Dynamic Regret Analysis for Online Tracking of Time-varying Structural Equation Model Topologies
2020
Identifying dependencies among variables in a complex system is an important problem in network science. Structural equation models (SEM) have been used widely in many fields for topology inference, because they are tractable and incorporate exogenous influences in the model. Topology identification based on static SEM is useful in stationary environments; however, in many applications a time-varying underlying topology is sought. This paper presents an online algorithm to track sparse time-varying topologies in dynamic environments and most importantly, performs a detailed analysis on the performance guarantees. The tracking capability is characterized in terms of a bound on the dynamic re…
Random Feature Approximation for Online Nonlinear Graph Topology Identification
2021
Online topology estimation of graph-connected time series is challenging, especially since the causal dependencies in many real-world networks are nonlinear. In this paper, we propose a kernel-based algorithm for graph topology estimation. The algorithm uses a Fourier-based Random feature approximation to tackle the curse of dimensionality associated with the kernel representations. Exploiting the fact that the real-world networks often exhibit sparse topologies, we propose a group lasso based optimization framework, which is solve using an iterative composite objective mirror descent method, yielding an online algorithm with fixed computational complexity per iteration. The experiments con…
Joint Graph Learning and Signal Recovery via Kalman Filter for Multivariate Auto-Regressive Processes
2018
In this paper, an adaptive Kalman filter algorithm is proposed for simultaneous graph topology learning and graph signal recovery from noisy time series. Each time series corresponds to one node of the graph and underlying graph edges express the causality among nodes. We assume that graph signals are generated via a multivariate auto-regressive processes (MAR), generated by an innovation noise and graph weight matrices. Then we relate the state transition matrix of Kalman filter to the graph weight matrices since both of them can play the role of signal propagation and transition. Our proposed Kalman filter for MAR processes, called KF-MAR, runs three main steps; prediction, update, and le…
Two-way quantum and classical machines with small memory for online minimization problems
2019
We consider online algorithms. Typically the model is investigated with respect to competitive ratio. In this paper, we explore algorithms with small memory. We investigate two-way automata as a model for online algorithms with restricted memory. We focus on quantum and classical online algorithms. We show that there are problems that can be better solved by two-way automata with quantum and classical states than classical two-way automata in the case of sublogarithmic memory (sublinear size).
Network Slicing Enabled Resource Management for Service-Oriented Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Vehicular Networks
2020
Network slicing has been considered as a promising candidate to provide customized services for vehicular applications that have extremely high requirements of latency and reliability. However, the high mobility of vehicles poses significant challenges to resource management in such a stochastic vehicular environment with time-varying service demands. In this paper, we develop an online network slicing scheduling strategy for joint resource block (RB) allocation and power control in vehicular networks. The long-term time-averaged total system capacity is maximized while guaranteeing strict ultra-reliable and low-latency requirements of vehicle communication links, subject to stability const…
SparseHC: A Memory-efficient Online Hierarchical Clustering Algorithm
2014
Computing a hierarchical clustering of objects from a pairwise distance matrix is an important algorithmic kernel in computational science. Since the storage of this matrix requires quadratic space with respect to the number of objects, the design of memory-efficient approaches is of high importance to this research area. In this paper, we address this problem by presenting a memory-efficient online hierarchical clustering algorithm called SparseHC. SparseHC scans a sorted and possibly sparse distance matrix chunk-by-chunk. Meanwhile, a dendrogram is built by merging cluster pairs as and when the distance between them is determined to be the smallest among all remaining cluster pairs. The k…
