Introduction: Machine-to-machine communication assumes data transmission from various wireless devices and attracts attention of cellular operators. In this regard, it is crucial to recognize and control overload situations when a large number of such devices access the network over a short time interval.Purpose:Analysis of the radio network overload at the initial network entry stage in a machine-to-machine communication system.Results: A system is considered that features multiple smart meters, which may report alarms and autonomously collect energy consumption information. An analytical approach is proposed to study the operation of a large number of devices in such a system as well as model the settings of the random-access protocol in a cellular network and overload control mechanisms with respect to the access success probability, network access latency, and device power consumption. A comparison between the obtained analytical results and simulation data is also offered.

Location-based services (LBS) have gained increasing importance in our everyday lives and serve as the foundation for many smartphone applications. Whereas Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) enable reliable position estimation outdoors, there does not exist any comparable gold standard for indoor localization yet. Wireless local area network (WLAN) fingerprinting is still a promising and widely adopted approach to indoor localization, since it does not rely on preinstalled hardware but uses the existing WLAN infrastructure typically present in buildings. The accuracy of the method is, however, limited due to unstable fingerprints, etc. Deep learning has recently gained attention in the field of indoor localization and is also utilized to increase the performance of fingerprinting-based approaches. Current solutions can be grouped into models that either estimate the exact position of the user (regression) or classify the area (pre-segmented floor plan) or a reference location. We propose a model, DeepLocBox (DLB), that offers reliable area localization in multi-building/multi-floor environments without the prerequisite of a pre-segmented floor plan. Instead, the model predicts a bounding box that contains the user’s position while minimizing the required prediction space (size of the box). We compare the performance of DLB with the standard approach of neural network-based position estimation and demonstrate that DLB achieves a gain in success probability by 9.48% on a self-collected dataset at RWTH Aachen University, Germany; by 5.48% for a dataset provided by Tampere University of Technology (TUT), Finland; and by 3.71% for the UJIIndoorLoc dataset collected at Jaume I University (UJI) campus, Spain.

AbstractThe Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) paradox is an exquisite no-go theorem that shows the sharp contradiction between classical theory and quantum mechanics by ruling out any local realistic description of quantum theory. The investigation of GHZ-type paradoxes has been carried out in a variety of systems and led to fruitful discoveries. However, its range of applicability still remains unknown and a unified construction is yet to be discovered. In this work, we present a unified construction of GHZ-type paradoxes for graph states, and show that the existence of GHZ-type paradox is not limited to graph states. The results have important applications in quantum state verification for graph states, entanglement detection, and construction of GHZ-type steering paradox for mixed states. We perform a photonic experiment to test the GHZ-type paradoxes via measuring the success probability of their corresponding perfect Hardy-type paradoxes, and demonstrate the proposed applications. Our work deepens the comprehension of quantum paradoxes in quantum foundations, and may have applications in a broad spectrum of quantum information tasks.

AbstractWe propose a novel framework for the economic assessment of environmental policy. Our main point of departure from existing work is the adoption of a satisficing, as opposed to optimizing, modeling approach. Along these lines, we place primary emphasis on the extent to which different policies meet a set of goals at a specific future date instead of their performance vis-a-vis some intertemporal objective function. Consistent to the nature of environmental policymaking, our model takes explicit account of model uncertainty. To this end, the decision criterion we propose is an analog of the well-known success-probability criterion adapted to settings characterized by model uncertainty. We apply our criterion to the climate-change context and the probability distributions constructed by Drouet et al. (2015) linking carbon budgets to future consumption. Insights from computational geometry facilitate computations considerably and allow for the efficient application of the model in high-dimensional settings.

Two people independently and with the same distribution guess the location of an unseen object in n-dimensional space, and the one whose guess is closer to the unseen object is declared the winner. The first person announces his guess, but the second modifies his unspoken idea by moving his guess in the direction of the first guess and as close to it as possible. It is shown that if the distribution of guesses is rotationally symmetric about the true location of the unseen object, ¾ is the sharp lower bound for the success probability of the second guesser. If the distribution is fixed and the dimension increases, then for a certain class of distributions, the success probability approaches 1.

We propose a new method, probabilistic divide-and-conquer, for improving the success probability in rejection sampling. For the example of integer partitions, there is an ideal recursive scheme which improves the rejection cost from asymptotically order n3/4 to a constant. We show other examples for which a non-recursive, one-time application of probabilistic divide-and-conquer removes a substantial fraction of the rejection sampling cost.We also present a variation of probabilistic divide-and-conquer for generating i.i.d. samples that exploits features of the coupon collector's problem, in order to obtain a cost that is sublinear in the number of samples.
