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…

We study the rate-distortion problem for both scalar and vector memoryless heavy-tailed $\alpha$-stable sources ($0 < \alpha < 2$). Using a recently defined notion of ``strength" as a power measure, we derive the rate-distortion function…

We study the problem of computing the rate-distortion function for sources with feed-forward and the capacity for channels with feedback. The formulas (involving directed information) for the optimal rate-distortion function with…

Centralized coded caching problem is studied for the two-user scenario, considering heterogeneous cache capacities at the users and private channels from the server to the users, in addition to a shared channel. Optimal caching and delivery…

Caching is emerging as a vital tool for alleviating the severe capacity crunch in modern content-centric wireless networks. The main idea behind caching is to store parts of popular content in end-users' memory and leverage the locally…

We consider the semantic rate-distortion problem motivated by task-oriented video compression. The semantic information corresponding to the task, which is not observable to the encoder, shows impacts on the observations through a joint…

Handling digital images is almost always accompanied by a lossy compression in order to facilitate efficient transmission and storage. This introduces an unavoidable tension between the allocated bit-budget (rate) and the faithfulness of…

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…

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…

We derive a simple general parametric representation of the rate-distortion function of a memoryless source, where both the rate and the distortion are given by integrals whose integrands include the minimum mean square error (MMSE) of the…

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,…

In this paper, we consider a cache aided network in which each user is assumed to have individual caches, while upon users' requests, an update message is sent though a common link to all users. First, we formulate a general information…

Source coding with a side information "vending machine" is a recently proposed framework in which the statistical relationship between the side information and the source, instead of being given and fixed as in the classical Wyner-Ziv…

Rate-distortion-perception theory generalizes Shannon's rate-distortion theory by introducing a constraint on the perceptual quality of the output. The perception constraint complements the conventional distortion constraint and aims to…

We examine the coordinated and universal rate-efficient sampling of a subset of correlated discrete memoryless sources followed by lossy compression of the sampled sources. The goal is to reconstruct a predesignated subset of sources within…

Rate-distortion theory provides bounds for compressing data produced by an information source to a specified encoding rate that is strictly less than the source's entropy. This necessarily entails some loss, or distortion, between the…

Nowadays computer networks use different kind of memory whose speeds and capacities vary widely. There exist methods of a so-called caching which are intended to use the different kinds of memory in such a way that the frequently used data…

We show that the duality between channel capacity and data compression is retained when state information is available to the sender, to the receiver, to both, or to neither. We present a unified theory for eight special cases of channel…
