We consider the distributed computation of a function of random sources with minimal communication. Specifically, given two discrete memoryless sources, X and Y , a receiver wishe...
In this paper, we introduce a new approach to adaptive coding which utilizes Stochastic Learning-based Weak Estimation (SLWE) techniques to adaptively update the probabilities of t...
In this paper, we investigate region-based embedded wavelet compression methods and introduce region-based extensions of the Set Partitioning In Hierarchical Trees (SPIHT) and the...

A challenge of image communication over unreliable channels is to achieve good compression rates and be effective in presence of channel failures. In this work we use the Multiple...
We introduce a symbol reordering technique that implicitly synchronizes variable-length codes, such that it is possible to directly access the i-th codeword without need of any sam...
