Background: Alexithymia as a cluster of cognitive and affective deficits has been studied for its ability to predict a variety of psychological disorders. Given its clinical importance, various self-report questionnaires have been developed to measure alexithymia. The aim of this study was to determine the psychometric characteristics of Persian version of the Toronto Alexithymia Scale-20 (FTAS...

In this work, we present coding techniques that enable progressive transmission when trellis coded quantization (TCQ) is applied to wavelet coefficients. A method for approximately inverting TCQ in the absence of least significant bits is developed. Results are presented using different rate allocation strategies and different entropy coders. The proposed wavelet-TCQ coder yields excellent codi...

This paper considers the joint problem of dirty-paper and Wyner-Ziv coding with partial host information at the receiver. The rate-distortion and the capacity expressions have been derived for the Gaussian case. It is shown that the availability of the partial host information to the receiver has positive effects to the compression performance and the overall capacity. Moreover, a practical cod...
