Maximum Likelihood Upper Bounds on the Capacities of Discrete Information Stable Channels

Tongxin Li

IEEE Information Theory Workshop

How can channel capacity be bounded through maximum likelihood?

The paper derives a maximum likelihood upper bound using optimality conditions for discrete information stable channels. It recovers capacity for selected memoryless channels and develops a counting based bound for the binary deletion channel.

Adaptive Riemannian Graph Neural Networks

Xudong Wang, Chris Ding, Tongxin Li, Jicong Fan

ARGNN learns a node specific Riemannian metric instead of imposing one fixed curvature on an entire graph. A diagonal metric parameterization and geometric regularization support efficient training, with convergence analysis and experiments on homophilic and heterophilic graphs.

Quantum Learning and Estimation for Coordinated Operation between Distribution Networks and Energy Communities

Yingrui Zhuang, Lin Cheng, Yuji Cao, Tongxin Li, Ning Qi, Yan Xu, Yue Chen

A hybrid quantum learning model estimates energy community responses to prices, while quantum amplitude estimation supports uncertainty calculations. Numerical studies assess accuracy and resource requirements. Reported timing advantages assume ideal quantum devices rather than deployed hardware.
