We consider the problem of multiple description scalar quantizers and describing the achievable rate-distortion tuples in that setting. We formulate it as a combinatorial optimization problem of arranging numbers in a matrix to minimize the…
We are interested in how to best communicate a (usually real valued) source to a number of destinations (sinks) over a network with capacity constraints in a collective fidelity metric over all the sinks, a problem which we call joint…
A new ensemble of structured codes is introduced. These codes are called Quasi Linear Codes (QLC). The QLC's are constructed by taking subsets of linear codes. They have a looser structure compared to linear codes and are not closed under…
Consider a lossy compression system with $\ell$ distributed encoders and a centralized decoder. Each encoder compresses its observed source and forwards the compressed data to the decoder for joint reconstruction of the target signals under…
A scenario involving a source, a channel, and a destination, where the destination is interested in {\em both} reliably reconstructing the message transmitted by the source and estimating with a fidelity criterion the state of the channel,…
The problem of joint universal source coding and identification is considered in the setting of fixed-rate lossy coding of continuous-alphabet memoryless sources. For a wide class of bounded distortion measures, it is shown that any…
We consider the k-encoder source coding problem with a quadratic distortion measure. We show that among all source distributions with a given covariance matrix K, the jointly Gaussian source requires the highest rates in order to meet a…
I introduce rate-distortion theory for quantum coding, and derive a lower bound, involving the coherent information, on the rate at which qubits must be used to encode a quantum source with a given maximum level of distortion per source…
In this paper we consider the separate coding problem for $L+1$ correlated Gaussian memoryless sources. We deal with the case where $L$ separately encoded data of sources work as side information at the decoder for the reconstruction of the…
We study the multi-user Bayesian persuasion game between one encoder and two decoders, where the first decoder is better informed than the second decoder. We consider two perfect links, one to the first decoder only, and the other to both…
We consider a remote source coding problem subject to a {distortion function}. Contrary to the use of the classical separable distortion criterion, herein we consider the more general, $f$-separable distortion measure and study its…
In this paper, we investigate the design of linear precoders for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiple access channels (MAC). We assume that statistical channel state information (CSI) is available at the transmitters and consider…

We investigate lossy compression (source coding) of data in the form of permutations. This problem has direct applications in the storage of ordinal data or rankings, and in the analysis of sorting algorithms. We analyze the rate-distortion…
We propose a source/channel duality in the exponential regime, where success/failure in source coding parallels error/correctness in channel coding, and a distortion constraint becomes a log-likelihood ratio (LLR) threshold. We establish…
