We revisit the Gray-Wyner lossy source coding problem and derive the first-order asymptotic optimal rate-distortion-perception region when additional perception constraints are imposed on reproduced source sequences. The optimal trade-off…

We consider rate-distortion with two decoders, each with distinct side information. This problem is well understood when the side information at the decoders satisfies a certain degradedness condition. We consider cases in which this…

An encoder, subject to a rate constraint, wishes to describe a Gaussian source under squared error distortion. The decoder, besides receiving the encoder's description, also observes side information consisting of uncompressed source symbol…

Distributed source coding (DSC) addresses the compression of correlated sources without communication links among them. This paper is concerned with the Wyner-Ziv problem: coding of an information source with side information available only…

We approach index coding as a special case of rate-distortion with multiple receivers, each with some side information about the source. Specifically, using techniques developed for the rate-distortion problem, we provide two upper bounds…

This paper studies a variant of the rate-distortion problem motivated by task-oriented semantic communication and distributed learning problems, where $M$ correlated sources are independently encoded for a central decoder. The decoder has…

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 work, we address the lossy quantum-classical source coding with the quantum side-information (QC-QSI) problem. The task is to compress the classical information about a quantum source, obtained after performing a measurement while…

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…

In this work, we establish a full single-letter characterization of the rate-distortion region of an instance of the Gray-Wyner model with side information at the decoders. Specifically, in this model an encoder observes a pair of…

We introduce the idea of distortion side information, which does not directly depend on the source but instead affects the distortion measure. We show that such distortion side information is not only useful at the encoder, but that under…

Since the publication of Shannon's theory of one terminal source coding, a number of interesting extensions have been derived by researchers such as Slepian-Wolf, Wyner, Ahlswede-K\"{o}rner, Wyner-Ziv and Berger-Yeung. Specifically, the…

For the HB problem with the CR constraint, the rate-distortion function is derived under the assumption that the side information sequences are (stochastically) degraded. The rate-distortion function is also calculated explicitly for three…

Wyner's common information was originally defined for a pair of dependent discrete random variables. Its significance is largely reflected in, hence also confined to, several existing interpretations in various source coding problems. This…
