Abstract—In this paper, we consider the problem of multifunctional compression with side information. The problem is how we can compress a source X so that the receiver is able t...
Starting from an axiomatization of a generalization of Shannon entropy we introduce a set of axioms for a parametric family of distances over sets of partitions of finite sets. T...
Following the entropy method this paper presents general concentration inequalities, which can be applied to combinatorial optimization and empirical processes. The inequalities g...
Abstract. Mutual information (MI) is a common criterion in independent component analysis (ICA) optimization. MI is derived from probability density functions (PDF). There are scen...
