This paper studies the joint data and semantics lossy compression problem, i.e., an extension of the hidden lossy source coding problem that entails recovering both the hidden and observable sources. We aim to study the nonasymptotic and…
For a number of lossy source coding problems it is shown that even if the usual single-letter sum-rate-distortion expressions may become invalid for non-infinite distortion functions, they can be approached, to any desired accuracy, via the…
We consider the problem of lossy source coding with a mismatched distortion measure. That is, we investigate what distortion guarantees can be made with respect to distortion measure $\tilde{\rho}$, for a source code designed such that it…

Universal variable-to-fixed (V-F) length coding of $d$-dimensional exponential family of distributions is considered. We propose an achievable scheme consisting of a dictionary, used to parse the source output stream, making use of the…
This paper deals with a universal coding problem for a certain kind of multiterminal source coding system that we call the complementary delivery coding system. In this system, messages from two correlated sources are jointly encoded, and…
We propose a random coding technique for joint source-channel coding of discrete memoryless sources and channels. The approach builds on the random Gilbert-Varshamov code construction of Somekh-Baruch et al. and extends it to the joint…
