The problem of predicting a sequence $x_1,x_2,...$ generated by a discrete source with unknown statistics is considered. Each letter $x_{t+1}$ is predicted using information on the word $x_1x_2... x_t$ only. In fact, this problem is a…

Lossless variable-length source coding with codeword cost is considered for general sources. The problem setting, where we impose on unequal costs on code symbols, is called the variable-length coding with codeword cost. In this problem,…

Given a set (or multiset) S of n numbers and a target number t, the subset sum problem is to decide if there is a subset of S that sums up to t. There are several methods for solving this problem, including exhaustive search,…

A rateless coding scheme transmits incrementally more and more coded bits over an unknown channel until all the information bits are decoded reliably by the receiver. We propose a new rateless coding scheme based on polar codes, and we show…
