Talk Title: A Stronger Soft-Covering Lemma that assures Semantic Security in Wiretap Channels
Series: CommNetS
Abstract: In 1975, Wyner published two very different papers that are unexpectedly connected. One introduced the wiretap channel, showing that information-theoretic secrecy is possible without a secret key by taking advantage of channel noise. This is the foundation for much of physical-layer security. The other paper introduced a notion of common information relevant to generating random variables at different terminals. In that work he introduced a soft-covering tool for proving achievability. Coincidently, soft covering has now become the tool of choice for proving strong secrecy in wiretap channels, although Wyner didn't appear to make any connection between the two results. We present a sharpening of the soft-covering tool by showing that the soft-covering phenomenon happens with doubly-exponential certainty with respect to a randomly generated codebook. Through the union bound, this enables security proofs in settings where many security constraints must be satisfied simultaneously. The "type II" wiretap channel is a great example of this, where the eavesdropper can actively influence his observations but security must hold in all cases. We demonstrate the effectiveness of this tool by deriving the secrecy capacity of wiretap channels of type II with a noisy main channel--- previously an open problem. Additionally, this stronger soft covering allows information-theoretic security proofs to be easily upgraded to semantic security, which is the gold standard in cryptography.

Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Saurabh Amin, MIT
Talk Title: Resilient Monitoring and Control of Distribution Networks
Series: CommNetS
Abstract: This talk will focus on the analysis of attacker-defender interactions on distribution networks (DNs) using game-theoretic tools. Two attack models will be considered: (i) manipulation of distributed generation (DG) nodes in electricity distribution networks to induce sudden supply-demand mismatch; (ii) strategic disruption of network links in urban water networks to increase non-technical losses. In the first model, the defender responds to the adversary's action by imposing both DG control and partial load control at the uncompromised nodes under nonlinear power flow constraints. In the second model, the defender strategically chooses an optimal network sensing strategy to maximize detection performance under the sensors' constraints on the range of detection. Full characterization of equilibrium strategies will be presented for each model of attacker-defender interaction. The equilibrium strategies provide practical recommendations for improving the resilience of network monitoring and control tools in the face of strategic attacks.

Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Erik G. Larsson, Linköping University
Talk Title: Massive MIMO --- Tutorial and Research Highlights
Abstract: The exponential growth rate in wireless traffic will continue and perhaps even accelerate, due to new applications such as augmented reality and internet-of-things. Massive MIMO is a key technology for providing orders of magnitude more data traffic. It works by equipping base stations with large numbers of antennas, simultaneously serving many tens of low-complexity terminals in the same time frequency resource via closed-loop spatial multiplexing (MIMO precoding). Channel estimates are formed on the uplink through operation in time-division duplexing (TDD) and relying on reciprocity of propagation, which makes the operation scalable with respect to the number of antennas and leaves the channel coherence as the only limiting factor. In this talk we will review the basic operation principles of Massive MIMO, and discuss some highlights from recent research.

Talk Title: On Dimension Reduction and Clustering by Random Projections
Abstract: I will discuss some interesting problems and promising solutions related to dimension reduction and clustering by random projections. It is well known that in high dimensional settings, random projections onto lower dimensional subspaces tends to retain pair-wise distances faithfully. Random projections are significantly faster that alternative techniques such as principal component analysis while providing comparable results. In the talk, I will present recent and ongoing work related to speeding up random projection-based computations by parallelization, fast approximate nearest neighbor searches using random projection trees, and applications in dimensional reduction and clustering.

Speaker: Dr. Ichiro Fujimori, IEEE Fellow, Broadcom Corporation
Talk Title: Evolution of Multi-Gigabit Wireline Transceivers in CMOS
Series: Integrated Systems Seminar
Abstract: The Internet Infrastructure is rapidly expanding to meet demands of increasing Internet traffic due to Cloud Computing/Storage. Wireline Transceivers are the data throughput bottleneck for SoCs used in Data Centers, as well as provide the communication backbone for Data Transport Networks. With the Moore's law slowing down, the necessary cost reduction and bandwidth extension with diversified link requirements cannot be achieved by simply taking advantage of a new technology node. As a result, architecture and circuit innovations have become more important than ever for multi-gigabit Wireline Transceivers. Designers will need to explore key questions such as: Analog vs. DSP-based Transceivers, NRZ vs PAM Coding, and Copper vs. Optical Interconnects to come up with the most competitive solution. This talk will provide further insights into these questions, as well as cover the latest advancements in such Wireline Transceivers and Wireline Communications applications.

Munushian Seminar - Asad Abidi, UCLA, Single-Chip Radios: The Next Generation
Fri, Nov 20, 2015 @ 02:00 PM - 03:30 PM
Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Asad Abidi, UCLA
Talk Title: Single-Chip Radios: The Next Generation
Abstract: The term "integration" in microelectronics has come to mean the rapacious assimilation on to a single piece of silicon CMOS every conceivable function that makes up a complex system, stopping only where the laws of physics draw a hard line. Driven by the wireless revolution that gave us smartphones and wireless LAN which depend increasingly on elaborate uses of the available frequency bands, this is what has happened with radio transceivers. A collection of silicon chips and passive components which only a few years ago characterized a wireless transceiver is now heading towards an antenna that connects to essentially a single-chip radio of unprecedented versatility.
I will describe the unprecedented performance that is being demanded from today's radio-on-a-CMOS chip and how innovations in architecture and circuit design are coping with the pressures of lower supply voltages, poor quality on-chip passives, and the huge dynamic range of radio waveforms that are no longer conditioned by off-chip SAW filters and duplexers. This gives a glimpse into the next generation radios, and how close they are to hard limits on performance.
Biography: Asad Abidi received the BSc degree in Electrical Engineering from Imperial College, London in 1976, and the PhD from the University of California, Berkeley in 1982. He worked at Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill until 1985, and then joined the faculty of the University of California, Los Angeles where he is Distinguished Chancellor's Professor of Electrical Engineering. With his students he has developed many of the radio circuits and architectures that enable today's mobile devices.
Among other awards, Abidi has received the 2008 IEEE Donald O. Pederson Award in Solid-State Circuits and the Best Paper Award from the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits in 2012. The University of California Berkeley's Electrical Engineering Department recognized him as a Distinguished Alumnus in 2015. He is a Fellow of IEEE, and was elected to the US National Academy of Engineering and to TWAS, the world academy of sciences.

Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Professor Georgios B. Giannakis, University of Minnesota
Talk Title: Censor, Sketch, and Validate for Learning from Large-Scale Data
Abstract: We live in an era of data deluge. Pervasive sensors collect massive amounts of information on every bit of our lives, churning out enormous streams of raw data in various formats. Mining information from unprecedented volumes of data promises to limit the spread of epidemics and diseases, identify trends in financial markets, learn the dynamics of emergent social-computational systems, and also protect critical infrastructure including the smart grid and the Internet's backbone network. While Big Data can be definitely perceived as a big blessing, big challenges also arise with large-scale datasets. This talk will put forth novel algorithms and present analysis of their performance in extracting computationally affordable yet informative subsets of massive datasets. Extraction will effected through innovative tools, namely adaptive censoring, random subset sampling (a.k.a. sketching), and validation. The impact of these tools will be demonstrated in machine learning tasks as fundamental as (non)linear regression, classification, and clustering of high-dimensional, large-scale, and dynamic datasets.

NanoTech Seminar Series, Justin Song - Curveball electrons: Valley-based electronics and opto-electronics
Tue, Nov 24, 2015 @ 02:00 PM - 03:30 PM
Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Justin Song, California Institute of Technology
Talk Title: Curveball electrons: Valley-based electronics and opto-electronics
Abstract: Charge carriers in materials are often described as particles similar to free electrons but characterized by effective quantities such as an effective mass. However, electrons in topological materials defy this description; they acquire an additional quantum mechanical property - Berry curvature - that radically alters their dynamics.
I will discuss how exploiting Berry curvature in recently discovered two-dimensional heterostructures, such as graphene on hexagonal-boron-nitride (G/h-BN), grants control over the valley index - an internal quantum degree of freedom akin to spin. This strikingly manifests in low-dissipation transverse valley currents that can be decoupled from charge. I will discuss recent measurements of topological valley currents in G/hBN devices, how dissipation can be further suppressed using valley waveguides that allow valley currents to persist even in an insulating bulk. If time permits, I will also discuss how Berry curvature can alter opto-electronic properties such as a chiral flow of plasmons without magnetic field. These provide a new toolbox to engineer electronic and optoelectronic action directly into the electron wave function.
