For discrete memoryless multiple-access channels, we propose a general definition of variable length codes with a measure of the transmission rates at the receiver side. This gives a receiver perspective on the multiple-access channel…

We prove a new outer bound on the rate-distortion region for the multiterminal source-coding problem. This bound subsumes the best outer bound in the literature and improves upon it strictly in some cases. The improved bound enables us to…

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…

We investigate the service-rate region (SRR) of distributed storage systems that employ linear codes. We focus on systems where each server stores one code symbol, and a user recovers a data symbol by accessing any of its recovery groups,…

Depth image based rendering techniques for multiview applications have been recently introduced for efficient view generation at arbitrary camera positions. Encoding rate control has thus to consider both texture and depth data. Due to…

It is well known that {\em superposition coding}, namely separately encoding the independent sources, is optimal for symmetric multilevel diversity coding (SMDC) (Yeung-Zhang 1999). However, the characterization of the coding rate region…

The rate-distortion-perception function (RDPF; Blau and Michaeli, 2019) has emerged as a useful tool for thinking about realism and distortion of reconstructions in lossy compression. Unlike the rate-distortion function, however, it is…

The best known inner bound for the 2-user discrete memoryless interference channel is the Han-Kobayashi rate region. The coding schemes that achieve this region are based on rate-splitting and superposition coding. In this paper, we develop…
