Analog coding decouples the tasks of protecting against erasures and noise. For erasure correction, it creates an "analog redundancy" by means of band-limited discrete Fourier transform (DFT) interpolation, or more generally, by an…
Rate distortion theory is concerned with optimally encoding a given signal class $\mathcal{S}$ using a budget of $R$ bits, as $R\to\infty$. We say that $\mathcal{S}$ can be compressed at rate $s$ if we can achieve an error of…
Image codecs are typically optimized to trade-off bitrate \vs distortion metrics. At low bitrates, this leads to compression artefacts which are easily perceptible, even when training with perceptual or adversarial losses. To improve image…
The rate-distortion dimension (RDD) of an analog stationary process is studied as a measure of complexity that captures the amount of information contained in the process. It is shown that the RDD of a process, defined as two times the…
