Mesure d'entropie asymétrique et consistante

Résumé. Les mesures d’entropie, dont la plus connue est celle de Shannon, ont été proposées dans un contexte de codage et de transmission d’information. Néanmoins, dès le milieu des années soixante, elles ont été utilisées dans d’autres domaines comme l’apprentissage et plus particulièrement pour construire des graphes d’induction et des arbres de décision. L’usage brut de ces mesures n’est cep...

MESURE Tool to benchmark Java Card platforms

The advent of the Java Card standard has been a major turning point in smart card technology. With the growing acceptance of this standard, understanding the performance behavior of these platforms is becoming crucial. To meet this need, we present in this paper a novel benchmarking framework to test and evaluate the performance of Java Card platforms. MESURE tool is the first framework which a...

Information Elicitation Sans Verification

The recent advent of human computation — employing groups of non-experts to solve problems — has motivated study of a question in mechanism design: How do we elicit useful information when we are unable to verify reports? Existing methods, such as peer prediction and Bayesian truth serum, require assumptions either on the mechanism’s knowledge about the participants or on the information struct...
