Information Loss in an Optimal Maximum Likelihood Decoding
نویسنده
چکیده
The mutual information between a set of stimuli and the elicited neural responses is compared to the corresponding decoded information. The decoding procedure is presented as an artificial distortion of the joint probabilities between stimuli and responses. The information loss is quantified. Whenever the probabilities are only slightly distorted, the information loss is shown to be quadratic in the distortion.

Optimum decoder for multiplicative spread spectrum image watermarking with Laplacian modeling
This paper investigates the multiplicative spread spectrum watermarking method for the image. The information bit is spreaded into middle-frequency Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coefficients of each block of an image using a generated pseudo-random sequence. Unlike the conventional signal modeling, we suppose that both signal and noise are distributed with Laplacian distribution, because the ...

Let be a random sample from a normal distribution with unknown mean and known variance The usual estimator of the mean, i.e., sample mean is the maximum likelihood estimator which under squared error loss function is minimax and admissible estimator. In many practical situations, is known in advance to lie in an interval, say for some In this case, the maximum likelihood estimator...
متن کاملLow-complexity Decoding is Asymptotically Optimal in the SIMO MAC
A single input multiple output (SIMO) multiple access channel, with a large number of transmitters sending symbols from a constellation to the receiver of a multi-antenna base station, is considered. The fundamental limits of joint decoding of the signals from all the users using a low complexity convex relaxation of the maximum likelihood decoder (ML, constellation search) is investigated. It ...
متن کاملAn Efficient Best-First Derandomization Sampling Algorithm for Lattice Decoding
Although lattice reduction aided decoding improves the decoding performance, it has a performance gap to Maximum Likelihood (ML) decoding increasing with the lattice dimension. In view of this, efficient suboptimal decoding algorithms that can narrow the gap are desirable. In this paper, an efficient Best-First Derandomized Sampling (BFDS) decoding algorithm is proposed to achieve near optimal ...
متن کاملLinear-Time Maximum Likelihood Decoding of Surface Codes over the Quantum Erasure Channel
Surface codes are among the best candidates to ensure the fault-tolerance of a quantum computer. In order to avoid the accumulation of errors during a computation, it is crucial to have at our disposal a fast decoding algorithm to quickly identify and correct errors as soon as they occur. We propose a linear-time maximum likelihood decoder for surface codes over the quantum erasure channel. Thi...
