Locally decodable channel codes form a special class of error-correcting codes with the property that the decoder is able to reconstruct any bit of the input message from querying only a few bits of a noisy codeword. It is well known that…
An encoder wishes to minimize the bit rate necessary to guarantee that a decoder is able to calculate a symbolwise function of a sequence available only at the encoder and a sequence that can be measured only at the decoder. This classical…

In the Wyner-Ziv source coding problem, a source $X$ has to be encoded while the decoder has access to side information $Y$. This paper investigates the indirect setup, in which a latent source $S$, unobserved by both the encoder and the…
