We derive the optimal second-order coding region and moderate deviations constant for successive refinement source coding with a joint excess-distortion probability constraint. We consider two scenarios: (i) a discrete memoryless source…

It is well known that independent (separate) encoding of K correlated sources may incur some rate loss compared to joint encoding, even if the decoding is done jointly. This loss is particularly evident in the multiple descriptions problem,…

We consider the problem of causal source coding and causal decoding of a Gauss--Markov source, where the decoder has causal access to a side-information signal. We define the information causal rate-distortion function with causal decoder…

We consider the $k$-user successive refinement problem with causal decoder side information and derive an exponential strong converse theorem. The rate-distortion region for the problem can be derived as a straightforward extension of the…

In this paper, we analyze the indirect source coding problem with side information at both the encoder and decoder, as well as only at the decoder. We first derive structural properties of the two rate distortion functions (RDFs) for…

In the Wyner-Ziv source coding problem, a source $X$ has to be encoded while the decoder has access to side information $Y$. This paper investigates the indirect setup, in which a latent source $S$, unobserved by both the encoder and the…

We study the multi-user Bayesian persuasion game between one encoder and two decoders, where the first decoder is better informed than the second decoder. We consider two perfect links, one to the first decoder only, and the other to both…

Consider the two-way rate-distortion problem in which a helper sends a common limited-rate message to both users based on side information at its disposal. We characterize the region of achievable rates and distortions where a Markov form…

We propose a framework for second-order achievability, called type deviation convergence, that is generally applicable to settings in network information theory, and is especially suitable for lossy source coding and channel coding with…

Transmission of a Gaussian source over a time-varying multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel is studied under strict delay constraints. Availability of a correlated side information at the receiver is assumed, whose quality, i.e.,…

We show that polar codes can be used to achieve the rate-distortion functions in the problem of hierarchical source coding also known as the successive refinement problem. We also analyze the distributed version of this problem,…

An information-spectrum approach is applied to solve the multiterminal source coding problem for correlated general sources, where sources may be nonstationary and/or nonergodic, and the distortion measure is arbitrary and may be…

We investigate the problem of strategic point-to-point communication with side information at the decoder, in which the encoder and the decoder have mismatched distortion functions. The decoding process is not supervised, it returns the…

In this work, we address the lossy quantum-classical source coding with the quantum side-information (QC-QSI) problem. The task is to compress the classical information about a quantum source, obtained after performing a measurement while…

We study source coding in the presence of side information, when the system can take actions that affect the availability, quality, or nature of the side information. We begin by extending the Wyner-Ziv problem of source coding with decoder…

This paper addresses the problem of coding a continuous random source correlated with another source which is only available at the decoder. The proposed approach is based on the extension of the channel coding concept of syndrome from the…

Wyner's common information was originally defined for a pair of dependent discrete random variables. Its significance is largely reflected in, hence also confined to, several existing interpretations in various source coding problems. This…
