Conditional Optimal Sets and the Quantization Coefficients for Some Uniform Distributions

Probability 2025-07-23 v3

Abstract

Bucklew and Wise (1982) showed that the quantization dimension of an absolutely continuous probability measure on a given Euclidean space is constant and equals the Euclidean dimension of the space, and the quantization coefficient exists as a finite positive number. By giving different examples, in this paper, we have shown that the quantization coefficients for absolutely continuous probability measures defined on the same Euclidean space can be different. We have taken uniform distribution as a prototype of an absolutely continuous probability measure. In addition, we have also calculated the conditional optimal sets of nn-points and the nnth conditional quantization errors for the uniform distributions in constrained and unconstrained scenarios.
