Byzantine-Resilient Distributed Hypothesis Testing With Time-Varying Network Topology
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
We study the problem of distributed hypothesis testing over a network of mobile agents with limited communication and sensing ranges to infer the true hypothesis collaboratively. ...
We prove under mild assumptions that the AB for every non-compromised agent converges almost surely to the true hypothesis, without requiring connectivity in the underlying time-varying network topology ...
This paper considers a distributed hypothesis testing problem over a network of mobile agents with a time-varying network topology. ...

Non-Stationary Random Process for Large-Scale Failure and Recovery of Power Distribution
2016
Applied Mathematics
Real data on large-scale failures from an operational network is used to learn time-varying model parameters and resilience metrics. ...
This requires strengthening resilience of distribution networks that lie at the edge of the grid. ...
The recovery-time distribution has been modeled as Weibull mixtures with time-varying parameters. ...

Entropy and optimality in river deltas
2017
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
We thus suggest that prograding deltas attain dynamically accessible optima of flux distributions on their channel network topologies, thus effectively decoupling evolutionary time scales of geomorphology ...
This notion resonates with previous results applied to tidal deltas showing that tidal channels self-organize to uniformly distribute the tidal prism across the delta (35). ...
Testing this hypothesis in field deltas is challenging because avulsions occur infrequently. ...

Effects of network resolution on topological properties of human neocortex
2012
NeuroImage
In summary, our study confirms that topological organization of anatomical cortical networks varies with both sparsity and resolution of cortical scale, and it further provides a novel methodological framework ...
Most of these studies were performed with different cortical scales leading to cortical networks with different levels of small-world organization. ...
It will strongly depend on the nature of the study (exploratory versus hypothesis-driven) and on the underlying hypothesis (topological versus biological). ...

Hierarchical networks of food exchange in the black garden ant Lasius niger

Insect Science
We tested the influence of brood and colony size on (i) global indices at the network level (i.e. efficiency, resilience, centralisation and modularity) and (ii) individual values (i.e. degree, strength ...
Network resilience, the ratio between global efficiency and centralisation, was stable with colony size but increased in the presence of broods, presumably in response to the nutritional needs of larvae ...

A Multi-Objective Optimization Scheme for Resilient, Cost-Effective Planning of Microgrids
2020
IEEE Access
This work aims to simultaneously maximize the resiliency of distribution networks -in terms of service to the critical loads -and minimize the dispatchable generation capacity of microgrids. ...
Given the accuracy, computation time efficacy, and the generic formulation of the problem, the optimization scheme can be easily applied to any real network. ...
Network reconfiguration is another tool that is integrated with microgrids to enhance the network resiliency. ...

Simulation results show that scale-free network has the highest resilience as compared to random and random group network. ...
With the increasing use of cyberinfrastructure and popularity of e-Science initiatives, science is becoming truly globalized, reducing barriers to entry and enabling formation of open and global networked ...
Additionally, our observations suggest that the 2D topology is more resilient than 1D topology, and scale-free networks have higher resilience than random and random group networks. ...

Network robustness against attacks is one of the most fundamental researches in network science as it is closely associated with the reliability and functionality of various networking paradigms. ...

Adversary-resilient Distributed and Decentralized Statistical Inference and Machine Learning

2020
arXiv
pre-print
While the last few decades have witnessed a huge body of work devoted to inference and learning in distributed and decentralized setups, much of this work assumes a non-adversarial setting in which individual ...
As a result, we now have a plethora of algorithmic approaches that guarantee robustness of distributed and/or decentralized inference and learning under different adversarial threat models. ...
Byzantine-resilient distributed binary hypothesis testing is investigated for the first time under the Bayesian framework in [7] , with the critical fraction also given by α * = 1 2 in this case. ...
