Asymptotically optimal bit allocation among a set of quantizers for a finite collection of sources was determined in 1963 by Huang and Schultheiss. Their solution, however, gives ...
Multiple Description coding has been recently proposed for images and video transmission in packet erasure channels because of its good loss recovery capability. In this paper, we...
— In this paper, we propose a quantizer design algorithm that is optimized for source localization in sensor networks. For this application, the goal is to minimize the amount of...
We show that the problem of optimal bit allocation among a set of independent discrete quantizers given a budget constraint is equivalent to the multiple choice knapsack problem (...
Quantizers are generally designed either for fixed-rate coding or variable-rate coding. Under common conditions, variable-rate quantization leads to the same mean distortion for ...
