The problem of side-information scalable source coding is considered in this work, where the encoder constructs a progressive description, such that the receiver with high quality side information will be able to truncate the bitstream and reconstruct in t ...
This paper presents a methodology for extracting meaningful synchronous structures from multi-modal signals. Simultaneous processing of multi-modal data can reveal information that is unavailable when handling the sources separately. However, in natural hi ...
Individual choices are either based on personal experience or on information provided by peers. The latter case causes individuals to conform to the majority in their neighbourhood. Such herding behaviour may be very efficient in aggregating disperse priva ...
We investigate source coding in a cascade communication system consisting of an encoder, a relay and an end terminal, where both the relay and the end terminal wish to reconstruct source X with certain fidelities. Additionally, side-informations Z and ...
We provide a complete characterization of the rate-distortion region for the multistage successive refinement of the Wyner-Ziv source coding problem with degraded side informations at the decoder. Necessary and sufficient conditions for a source to be succ ...
We consider a lossy source coding problem where the description of a source is going to be used by two decoders, each having access to information correlated with the source. This side-information is also present at the encoder. We give inner and outer bou ...
This paper discusses robust coding of visual content for a distributed multimedia system. The system encodes independently two correlated video signals and reconstructs them jointly at a central decoder. The video signals are captured from a dynamic scene ...
Point of entry to the Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), the Learning Center will be a place to learn, to obtain information, and to live. Replacing and improving the old main library, this new building will gradually assimilate all EPFL depa ...
In this paper our recent results in the capacity of single relay erasure channels are used to derive a new and tighter cut-set bound. We initially present a simple and intuitive approach to derive the classical cut-set bound in General Multi-Terminal Erasu ...
Compared to wired networks, sensor networks pose two additional challenges for monitoring functions: they support much less probing traffic, and they change their routing topologies much more frequently. We propose therefore to use only end-to-end applicat ...
