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 ...
In the problem of lossy source coding with side-information, it is well known (Wyner and Ziv 1976) that knowledge of the side-information at the encoder improves the rate-distortion trade-off for binary sources and the Hamming distortion measure. We consid ...
This paper presents a highly flexible video coding scheme (MP3D), based on the use of a redundant 3-D spatio-temporal dictionary of functions. Directionality and anisotropic scaling are key ingredients to the spatial components, that form a rich collection ...
We consider the problem of compressing a Gaussian source for two decoders, one of which has access to side-information. Kaspi has solved this problem for discrete memoryless sources for the two cases with and without encoder side-information. We focus on t ...
The ability to design efficient distributed communications systems heavily depends on a proper understanding of the distortion incurred by their constituting elements. To this end, we study the mean squared reconstruction error behavior of the distributed ...
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 ...
Traditionally, the bursty nature of data sources is not taken in consideration by information theory. Random arrival times typically are assumed to be smoothed out by appropriate source coding, rendering any meaningful analysis of the end-to-end delay impo ...
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 ...
This correspondence provides bounds on the rate-distortion region for the distributed compression scenario where two (or more) sources are compressed separately for a decoder that has access to side information.Conclusive rate-distortion results are found ...
This paper presents a scalable video coding scheme (MP3D), based on the use of a redundant 3-D spatio-temporal dictionary of functions. The spatial component of the dictionary consists of directional and anisotropically scaled functions, which form a rich ...
