We consider the decentralized Bayesian binary hypothesis testing problem in feedback architectures, in which the fusion center broadcasts information based on the messages of some...
We extend a low-rate improvement of the random coding bound on the reliability of a classical discrete memoryless channel (DMC) to its quantum counterpart. The key observation that...
Abstract--For output-symmetric discrete memoryless channels (DMCs) at even moderately high rates, fixed-block-length communication systems show no improvements in their error expon...
Universally achievable error exponents pertaining to certain families of channels (most notably, discrete memoryless channels (DMC’s)), and various ensembles of random codes, ar...
-- We introduce a thermodynamic (large deviation) formalism for computing error exponents in error-correcting codes. Within this framework, we apply the heuristic cavity method fro...
Distributed source coding is traditionally viewed in the block coding context -- all the source symbols are known in advance at the encoders. This paper instead considers a stream...
We discuss two approaches for decoding at arbitrary rates in the Slepian-Wolf problem - time sharing and source splitting - both of which rely on constituent vertex decoders. We c...
