Successive Wyner-Ziv Coding Scheme and its Application to the Quadratic Gaussian CEO Problem

We introduce a distributed source coding scheme called successive Wyner-Ziv coding scheme. We show that any point in the rate region of the quadratic Gaussian CEO problem can be achieved via the successive Wyner-Ziv coding. The notion of successive refinement in the single source coding is generalized to the distributed source coding scenario, which we refer to as distributed successive refinem...

Towards practical Wyner-Ziv coding of video

In current interframe video compression systems, the encoder performs predictive coding to exploit the similarities of successive frames. The Wyner-Ziv Theorem on source coding with side information available only at the decoder suggests that an asymmetric video codec, where individual frames are encoded separately, but decoded conditionally (given temporally adjacent frames) could achieve simi...

On Wyner-Ziv Networks

Wyner and Ziv [1] determined the rate-distortion function of source coding with side information. In this paper, we consider a network extension of their scenario: Many sources have to be compressed in a rate-distortion sense for a decoder that has access to uncompressed side information about the sources. This may model a sensor or multicamera network situation where the data collection point ...

The duality between information embedding and source coding with side information and some applications

Aspects of the duality between the information-embedding problem and the Wyner–Ziv problem of source coding with side information at the decoder are developed and used to establish a spectrum new results on these and related problems, with implications for a number of important applications. The singleletter characterization of the information-embedding problem is developed and related to the c...
