In this paper, we consider the rate-distortion-perception (RDP) trade-off for the lossy compression of a Bernoulli vector source, which is a finite collection of independent binary random variables. The RDP function quantifies in a way the…

Consider a discrete memoryless multiple source with $m$ components of which $k \leq m$ possibly different sources are sampled at each time instant and jointly compressed in order to reconstruct all the $m$ sources under a given distortion…

The rate-distortion function (RDF) has long been an information-theoretic benchmark for data compression. As its natural extension, the indirect rate-distortion function (iRDF) corresponds to the scenario where the encoder can only access…

We examine the structure of families of distortion balls from the perspective of Kolmogorov complexity. Special attention is paid to the canonical rate-distortion function of a source word which returns the minimal Kolmogorov complexity of…
