On the Entropy of a Hidden Markov Process
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...

Rate-distortion unequal error protection for fractal image codes
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...
