The distributed source coding problem is considered when the sensors, or encoders, are under Byzantine attack; that is, an unknown group of sensors have been reprogrammed by a malicious intruder to undermine the reconstruction at the fusion center. Three different forms of the problem are considered. The first is a variable-rate setup, in which the decoder adaptively chooses the rates at which the sensors transmit. An explicit characterization of the variable-rate achievable sum rates is given for any number of sensors and any groups of traitors. The converse is proved constructively by letting the traitors simulate a fake distribution and report the generated values as the true ones. This fake distribution is chosen so that the decoder cannot determine which sensors are traitors while maximizing the required rate to decode every value. Achievability is proved using a scheme in which the decoder receives small packets of information from a sensor until its message can be decoded, before moving on to the next sensor. The sensors use randomization to choose from a set of coding functions, which makes it probabilistically impossible for the traitors to cause the decoder to make an error. Two forms of the fixed-rate problem are considered, one with deterministic coding and one with randomized coding. The achievable rate regions are given for both these problems, and it is shown that lower rates can be achieved with randomized coding.

Three different forms of the problem are considered. The first is a variable-rate setup, in which the decoder adaptively chooses the rates at which the sensors transmit. An explicit characterization of the variable-rate minimum achievable sum rate is stated, given by the maximum entropy over the set of distributions indistinguishable from the true source distribution by the decoder. In addition, two forms of the fixed-rate problem are considered, one with deterministic coding and one with randomized coding. The achievable rate regions are given for both these problems, with a larger region achievable using randomized coding, though both are suboptimal compared to variable-rate coding.
Distributed source coding is the task of encoding an input in the absence of correlated side information that is only available to the decoder. Remarkably, Slepian and Wolf showed in 1973 that an encoder that has no access to the correlated side info
rmation can asymptotically achieve the same compression rate as when the side information is available at both the encoder and the decoder. While there is significant prior work on this topic in information theory, practical distributed source coding has been limited to synthetic datasets and specific correlation structures. Here we present a general framework for lossy distributed source coding that is agnostic to the correlation structure and can scale to high dimensions. Rather than relying on hand-crafted source-modeling, our method utilizes a powerful conditional deep generative model to learn the distributed encoder and decoder. We evaluate our method on realistic high-dimensional datasets and show substantial improvements in distributed compression performance.
We investigate the impact of Byzantine attacks in distributed detection under binary hypothesis testing. It is assumed that a fraction of the transmitted sensor measurements are compromised by the injected data from a Byzantine attacker, whose purpos
e is to confuse the decision maker at the fusion center. From the perspective of a Byzantine attacker, under the injection energy constraint, an optimization problem is formulated to maximize the asymptotic missed detection error probability, which is based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence. The properties of the optimal attack strategy are analyzed by convex optimization and parametric optimization methods. Based on the derived theoretic results, a coordinate descent algorithm is proposed to search the optimal attack solution. Simulation examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained attack strategy.
The Byzantine distributed quickest change detection (BDQCD) is studied, where a fusion center monitors the occurrence of an abrupt event through a bunch of distributed sensors that may be compromised. We first consider the binary hypothesis case wher
e there is only one post-change hypothesis and prove a novel converse to the first-order asymptotic detection delay in the large mean time to a false alarm regime. This converse is tight in that it coincides with the currently best achievability shown by Fellouris et al.; hence, the optimal asymptotic performance of binary BDQCD is characterized. An important implication of this result is that, even with compromised sensors, a 1-bit link between each sensor and the fusion center suffices to achieve asymptotic optimality. To accommodate multiple post-change hypotheses, we then formulate the multi-hypothesis BDQCD problem and again investigate the optimal first-order performance under different bandwidth constraints. A converse is first obtained by extending our converse from binary to multi-hypothesis BDQCD. Two families of stopping rules, namely the simultaneous $d$-th alarm and the multi-shot $d$-th alarm, are then proposed. Under sufficient link bandwidth, the simultaneous $d$-th alarm, with $d$ being set to the number of honest sensors, can achieve the asymptotic performance that coincides with the derived converse bound; hence, the asymptotically optimal performance of multi-hypothesis BDQCD is again characterized. Moreover, although being shown to be asymptotically optimal only for some special cases, the multi-shot $d$-th alarm is much more bandwidth-efficient and energy-efficient than the simultaneous $d$-th alarm. Built upon the above success in characterizing the asymptotic optimality of the BDQCD, a corresponding leader-follower Stackelberg game is formulated and its solution is found.
We consider the problem of one-way communication when the recipient does not know exactly the distribution that the messages are drawn from, but has a prior distribution that is known to be close to the source distribution, a problem first considered
by Juba et al. We consider the question of how much longer the messages need to be in order to cope with the uncertainty about the receivers prior and the source distribution, respectively, as compared to the standard source coding problem. We consider two variants of this uncertain priors problem: the original setting of Juba et al. in which the receiver is required to correctly recover the message with probability 1, and a setting introduced by Haramaty and Sudan, in which the receiver is permitted to fail with some probability $epsilon$. In both settings, we obtain lower bounds that are tight up to logarithmically smaller terms. In the latter setting, we furthermore present a variant of the coding scheme of Juba et al. with an overhead of $logalpha+log 1/epsilon+1$ bits, thus also establishing the nearly tight upper bound.
