How Well Does the Shannon Codebook Compress ?

چکیده

| We consider the problem of describing the exact compression performance of a classical Shannon random codebook, for lossy source coding at a xed distortion level. For a memoryless source with a nite alphabet and a single-letter distortion measure, we address the following questions: (1) Are all random codebooks equally good? (2) What is the pointwise redundancy of a typical random codebook? (3) Is there a cost for universality in pointwise redun-dancy? (4) Is the overall best codebook better than the best random codebook? We ooer answers for the rst three questions, and a hint of an answer for the last one.

To Use the Codebook Information or Not: A Study of the Compress-and-Forward Relay Strategy

The motivation of this thesis is to understand how nodes can cooperate in a particular relay channel, say a relay channel with orthogonal link between relay and destination. We are especially interested in the scenario where relay cannot decode the message sent because the coding rate is too large vis-a-vis what it can handle, and try to investigate the optimality of compress-and-forward strate...

Compression of vector quantization code sequences based on code frequencies and spatial redundancies

Vector quantization (VQ) can be used to compress images with high compression ratios. The VQ methods produce a sequence of code values which identifies the codebook model vectors to be used as blocks of pixels in the decoded image. In this paper we define a novel non-lossy and computationally efficient method to further compress the code sequence based on the relative frequencies of the code va...

Efficient information compression in sensor networks

In the emerging area of wireless sensor networks, one of the most typical challenges is to retrieve historical information from the sensor nodes. Due to the resource limitation of sensor nodes (processing, memory, bandwidth, and energy), the collected information of sensor nodes has to be compressed quickly and precisely for transmission. In this paper, we propose a new technique -the ALVQ (Ado...

Motion Compensation by Adaptive Vector Quantization

We propose an eecient motion compensation scheme where adaptive vector quanti-zation (AVQ) is used to optimally compress the dense motion eld. The vector quantizer codebook is designed on-line by backward adaptation based on previous reconstructed frames. It thus takes advantage of the information already available at the receiver for adapting the codebook without recourse to side information. ...

Asymptotic Equipartition Property of Output when Rate is above Capacity

The output distribution, when rate is above capacity, is investigated. It is shown that there is an asymptotic equipartition property (AEP) of the typical output sequences, independently of the specific codebook used, as long as the codebook is typical according to the standard random codebook generation. This equipartition of the typical output sequences is caused by the mixup of input sequenc...
