The main objective of this paper is to explore the precise relationship between the Bethe free energy (or entropy) and the Shannon conditional entropy of graphical error correcting codes. The main result shows that the Bethe free energy associated with a l ...
We investigate an encoding scheme for lossy compression of a binary symmetric source based on simple spatially coupled low-density generator-matrix codes. The degree of the check nodes is regular and the one of code-bits is Poisson distributed with an aver ...

The loop series provides a formal way to write down corrections to the Bethe entropy (and/or free energy) of graphical models. We provide methods to rigorously control such expansions for low-density parity-check codes used over a highly noisy binary symme ...
We prove the existence of quasi-stationary symmetric solutions with exactly n >= 0 zeros and uniqueness for n = 0 for the Schrodinger-Newton model in one dimension and in two dimensions along with an angular momentum m >= 0. Our result is based on an analy ...
We investigate an encoding scheme for lossy compression based on spatially coupled Low-Density Generator-Matrix codes. The degree distributions are regular, or are Poisson on the code-bit side and check-regular which allows use for any compression rate. Th ...
We study a new encoding scheme for lossy source compression based on spatially coupled low-density generatormatrix codes. We develop a belief-propagation guided-decimation algorithm, and show that this algorithm allows to approach the optimal distortion of ...
