In this paper, an educational software aimed to help learning Information Theory basics in a practical way is reported. The software, called IT-tutor-UV, can produce entropy analy...
A video transmission system is presented based on the 3-D SPIHT algorithm for video compression and turbo codes for channel error protection. The channel considered is a binary sy...

We study the entropy rate of a hidden Markov process (HMP) defined by observing the output of a binary symmetric channel whose input is a first-order binary Markov process. Despit...

Fractal image codes are very sensitive to bit errors because the decoding of a block is dependent not only on the code information associated to this block but also on the code in...
