We consider universal variable-to-fixed length compression of memoryless sources with a fidelity criterion. We design a dictionary codebook over the reproduction alphabet which is used to parse the source stream. Once a source subsequence…
We consider the classical two-encoder multiterminal source coding problem where distortion is measured under logarithmic loss. We provide a single-letter characterization of the achievable rate distortion region for arbitrarily correlated…
We prove the existence of codebooks for d-semifaithful lossy compression that are simultaneously universal with respect to both the class of finite-alphabet memoryless sources and the class of all bounded additive distortion measures. By…
We consider a novel variant of $d$-semifaithful lossy coding in which the distortion measure is revealed only to the encoder and only at run-time, as well as an extension of it in which the distortion constraint $d$ is also revealed at…
A lossy source code $\mathcal{C}$ with rate $R$ for a discrete memoryless source $S$ is called subset-universal if for every $0<R'< R$, almost every subset of $2^{nR'}$ of its codewords achieves average distortion close to the source's…
In the classical source coding problem, the compressed source is reconstructed at the decoder with respect to some distortion metric. Motivated by settings in which we are interested in more than simply reconstructing the compressed source,…
A general method of source coding over expansion is proposed in this paper, which enables one to reduce the problem of compressing an analog (continuous-valued source) to a set of much simpler problems, compressing discrete sources.…
In lossy compression, Wang et al. [1] recently introduced the rate-distortion-perception-classification function, which supports multi-task learning by jointly optimizing perceptual quality, classification accuracy, and reconstruction…
An alternative approach to two-part 'critical compression' is presented. Whereas previous results were based on summing a lossless code at reduced precision with a lossy-compressed error or noise term, the present approach uses a similar…
A loss function measures the discrepancy between the true values and their estimated fits, for a given instance of data. In classification problems, a loss function is said to be proper if a minimizer of the expected loss is the true…
This paper considers the problem of soft guessing under a logarithmic loss distortion measure while allowing errors. We find an optimal guessing strategy, and derive single-shot upper and lower bounds for the minimal guessing moments as…
We investigate the second order asymptotics (source dispersion) of the successive refinement problem. Similarly to the classical definition of a successively refinable source, we say that a source is strongly successively refinable if…
We present a new lossy compressor for discrete sources. For coding a source sequence $x^n$, the encoder starts by assigning a certain cost to each reconstruction sequence. It then finds the reconstruction that minimizes this cost and…
We examine the coordinated and universal rate-efficient sampling of a subset of correlated discrete memoryless sources followed by lossy compression of the sampled sources. The goal is to reconstruct a predesignated subset of sources within…
Locally decodable channel codes form a special class of error-correcting codes with the property that the decoder is able to reconstruct any bit of the input message from querying only a few bits of a noisy codeword. It is well known that…
This paper investigates the problem of variable-length lossy source coding allowing a positive excess distortion probability and an overflow probability of codeword lengths. Novel one-shot achievability and converse bounds of the optimal…
In lossy compression, the classical tradeoff between compression rate and reconstruction distortion has traditionally guided algorithm design. However, Blau and Michaeli [5] introduced a generalized framework, known as the…
In the context of lossy compression, Blau & Michaeli (2019) adopt a mathematical notion of perceptual quality and define the information rate-distortion-perception function, generalizing the classical rate-distortion tradeoff. We consider…
The problem of lossless data compression with side information available to both the encoder and the decoder is considered. The finite-blocklength fundamental limits of the best achievable performance are defined, in two different versions…
We study lossy source coding under a distortion measure defined by the negative log-likelihood induced by a prescribed conditional distribution $P_{X|U}$. This \emph{log-likelihood distortion} models compression settings in which the…
