Polar codes for channel and source coding

Satish Babu Korada

The two central topics of information theory are the compression and the transmission of data. Shannon, in his seminal work, formalized both these problems and determined their fundamental limits. Since then the main goal of coding theory has been to find ...

Compressed network coding vectors

Christina Fragouli, Lorenzo Keller, Mahdi Jafari Siavoshani

In networks that employ network coding, two main approaches have been proposed in the literature to allow the receivers to recover the source information: (i) use of coding vectors, that keep track of the linear combinations the received packets contain, a ...

Lossy Source Coding with Gaussian or Erased Side-Information

Emre Telatar, Suhas Diggavi, Etienne Perron

In this paper we find properties that are shared between two seemingly unrelated lossy source coding setups with side information. The first setup is when the source and side information are jointly Gaussian and the distortion measure is quadratic. The sec ...

Error Resilient Speech Coding Using Sub-band Hilbert Envelopes

Petr Motlicek, Hynek Hermansky, Sriram Ganapathy

Frequency Domain Linear Prediction (FDLP) represents a technique for auto-regressive modelling of Hilbert envelopes of a signal. In this paper, we propose a speech coding technique that uses FDLP in Quadrature Mirror Filter (QMF) sub-bands of short segment ...

Cooperative media streaming using adaptive network compression

Tom Larsen

Media content distribution constitutes a growing share of the services on the Internet. Two distinct distribution approaches used today are Layered Coding (LC) and Multiple Description Coding (MDC). Current wireless connection technologies, e.g. Wimax, hav ...

Balanced multiple description coding in image communications

Ivana Radulovic

Latest developments in video coding technology on one side, and a continuous growth in size and bandwidth in lossy networks on the other side, have undoubtedly created a whole new world of multimedia communications. However, nowadays networks, which are be ...

Lower Bounds on the Rate-Distortion Function of Individual LDGM Codes

Rüdiger Urbanke, Shrinivas Kudekar

We consider lossy compression of a binary symmetric source by means of a low-density generator-matrix code. We derive two lower bounds on the rate distortion function which are valid for any low-density generator-matrix code with a given node degree distri ...

Perceived speed differences explain apparent compression in slit viewing

Michael Herzog

When a figure moves behind a stationary narrow slit, observers often report seeing the figure as an integrated whole, a phenomenon known as slit viewing or anorthoscopic perception. Interestingly, in slit viewing, the figure is perceived compressed along t ...

Optimizing TCP Receive Performance

Willy Zwaenepoel, Aravind Menon

The performance of the networking stack in an operating system depends on the overhead incurred by two of its components: the per-byte overhead incurred in data-touching operations, and the per-packet overhead of protocol processing and other operating sys ...
