Consider a source that produces independent copies of a triplet of jointly distributed random variables, $\{X_{i},Y_{i},Z_{i}\}_{i=1}^{\infty}$. The process $\{X_{i}\}$ is observed at the encoder, and is supposed to be reproduced at two…

We consider a multiterminal source coding problem in which a source is estimated at a central processing unit from lossy-compressed remote observations. Each lossy-encoded observation is produced by a remote sensor which obtains a noisy…
