We consider the multi-user lossy source-coding problem for continuous alphabet sources. In a previous work, Ziv proposed a single-user universal coding scheme which uses uniform quantization with dither, followed by a lossless source…
Index coding is a source coding problem in which a broadcaster seeks to meet the different demands of several users, each of whom is assumed to have some prior information on the data held by the sender. If the sender knows its clients'…
Index coding, a source coding problem over broadcast channels, has been a subject of both theoretical and practical interest since its introduction (by Birk and Kol, 1998). In short, the problem can be defined as follows: there is an input…
This paper proposes a novel achievable scheme for the index problem and applies it to the caching problem. Index coding and caching are noiseless broadcast channel problems where receivers have message side information.In the index coding…
In successive refinement of information, the decoder refines its representation of the source progressively as it receives more encoded bits. The rate-distortion region of successive refinement describes the minimum rates required to attain…
The likelihood encoder with a random codebook is demonstrated as an effective tool for source coding. Coupled with a soft covering lemma (associated with channel resolvability), likelihood encoders yield simple achievability proofs for…
This paper investigates the joint source-channel coding problem of sending two correlated memoryless sources with common part over a memoryless multiple access channel (MAC). An inner bound and two outer bounds on the achievable distortion…
A new coding technique, based on \textit{fixed block-length} codes, is proposed for the problem of communicating a pair of correlated sources over a $2-$user interference channel. Its performance is analyzed to derive a new set of…
The traditional information theoretic approach to studying feedback is to consider ideal instantaneous high-rate feedback of the channel outputs to the encoder. This was acceptable in classical work because the results were negative:…

We study analogue source transmission over MIMO block-fading channels with receiver-only channel state information. Unlike previous work which considers the end-to-end expected distortion as a figure of merit, we study the distortion outage…
The problem of source coding with side information (SCSI) is closely related to channel coding. Therefore, existing literature focuses on using the most successful channel codes namely, LDPC codes, turbo codes, and their variants, to solve…
In this work we investigate the behavior of the minimal rate needed in order to guarantee a given probability that the distortion exceeds a prescribed threshold, at some fixed finite quantization block length. We show that the excess coding…
This paper studies reliability-guaranteed decoding for variable-length stop-feedback (VLSF) codes over correlated noncoherent fading channels. The decoding rule is based on the evolution of the information density associated with a given…
We introduce a new variant of variable-length source coding for sending a source over two parallel channels, one of which is costly and the other free. We give a complete solution to this problem. Next, we relate the problem to the number…
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,…
We consider both channel coding and source coding, with perfect past feedback/feedforward, in the presence of side information. It is first observed that feedback does not increase the capacity of the Gel'fand-Pinsker channel, nor does…
In this paper, we consider a class of multiterminal source coding problems, each subject to distortion constraints computed using a specific, entropy-based, distortion measure. We provide the achievable rate distortion region for two cases…
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…
This paper deals with rate distortion or source coding with fidelity criterion, in measure spaces, for a class of source distributions. The class of source distributions is described by a relative entropy constraint set between the true and…
