Shannon, in his seminal work, formalized the transmission of data over a communication channel and determined its fundamental limits. He characterized the relation between communication rate and error probability and showed that as long as the communicatio ...
The Multiview Video Coding (MVC) standard efficiently compresses multiview video by considering spatial, temporal and interview correlations. This letter studies the impact of the MVC interview prediction structure on both the transmission and the overall ...
The arbitrarily varying channel (AVC) is a channel model whose state is selected maliciously by an adversary. Fixed-blocklength coding assumes a worst-case bound on the adversary's capabilities, which leads to pessimistic results. This paper defines a vari ...
We present polar coding schemes for the 2-user discrete memoryless broadcast channel (DM-BC) which achieve Marton's region with both common and private messages. This is the best achievable rate region up to date, and it is tight for all classes of 2-user ...
Finding theoretical limits on the performance of communication systems and designing schemes to achieve them is one of the fundamental questions in information theory. While the theory of point-to-point communication is well-investigated, most problems hav ...
We investigate two closely related successive refinement (SR) coding problems: 1) In the hypothesis testing (HT) problem, bivariate hypothesis H-o : P-XY against H-1 : P-X P-Y, i.e., test against independence is considered. One remote sensor collects data ...
Vision sensor networks and video cameras find widespread usage in several applications that rely on effective representation of scenes or analysis of 3D information. These systems usually acquire multiple images of the same 3D scene from different viewpoin ...
Shannon in his seminal work \cite{paper:shannon} formalized the framework on the problem of digital communication of information and storage. He quantified the fundamental limits of compression and transmission rates. The quantity \textit{channel capacity} ...
In this paper we show that mismatched polar codes over symmetric B-DMCs symmetrized under the same permutation can achieve rates of at least I (W, V) bits whenever I (W, V) > 0, where W denotes the communication channel, V the mismatched channel used in th ...
Iterative detection and decoding (IDD) in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless systems is known to achieve near channel capacity. The high computational complexity of IDD, however, poses significant challenges for practical implementations (in ter ...
