General Information
Fundamental limits and practical algorithms for data compression. Entropy and other information measures. Variable and fixed-length lossless and lossy source codes. Universal compression. Single-source and network configurations. Applications to text and multimedia compression.
Prerequisites
ECE 4110
Topics Covered
1. Information measures: entropy, mutual information, relative entropy, and their properties.
2. Optimal lossless compression and the entropy limit
3. Universal compression of sources with memory
4. Algorithms for universal compression: arithmetic coding and Lempel-Ziv algorithms
5. Rate-distortion theory: the rate-distortion function; Gaussian sources and reverse waterpouring
6. Practical compression of multimedia sources: entropy- and trellis-coded quantization, transform and subband coding
7. Multimedia compression standards: MPEG, AAC, etc.
8. Network extensions: Slepian-Wolf, Wyner-Ziv.
