Active topology inference using network coding
Our goal is to infer the topology of a network when (i) we can send probes between sources and receivers at the edge of the network and (ii) intermediate nodes can perform simple network coding operations, i.e., additions. Our key intuition is that network coding introduces topology-dependent correlation in the observations at the receivers, which can be exploited to infer the topology. For und...
متن کاملTopology Inference using Network Coding
The network coding paradigm is based on the idea that independent information flows can be linearly combined throughout the network to give benefits in terms of throughput, complexity etc. In this paper, we explore the application of the network coding paradigm to topology inference. Our goal is to infer the topology of a network using multiple sources and observations at the edges of the netwo...
متن کاملSensor Network Topology Inference
We present a method for inferring the topology of a sensor network given non-discriminating observations of activity in the monitored region. This is accomplished based on no prior knowledge of the relative locations of the sensors and weak assumptions regarding environmental conditions. Our approach employs a two-level reasoning system made up of a stochastic Expectation Maximization algorithm...
متن کاملImproving gene regulatory network inference using network topology information.
Inferring the gene regulatory network (GRN) structure from data is an important problem in computational biology. However, it is a computationally complex problem and approximate methods such as heuristic search techniques, restriction of the maximum-number-of-parents (maxP) for a gene, or an optimal search under special conditions are required. The limitations of a heuristic search are well kn...
متن کاملNetwork Topology Inference Using Information Cascades with Limited Statistical Knowledge
We study the problem of inferring network topology from information cascades, in which the amount of time taken for information to diffuse across an edge in the network follows an unknown distribution. Unlike previous studies, which assume knowledge of these distributions, we only require that diffusion along different edges in the network be independent together with limited moment information...
