IEEE Information Theory Society Newsletter

Shannon information theory aims at finding fundamental limits for storage and communication, including rates of convergence to these limits. Indeed, many interesting information theoretic phenomena seem to appear in the second order asymptotics. So we first discuss precise analysis of the minimax redundancy that can be viewed as a measure of learnable or useful information. Then we highlight Ma...

IEEE Information Theory Society Newsletter

I dare say that there is no other IEEE society that is a more purely volunteer society than the Information Theory Society. Our society has no staff, and is basically run out of the back pockets of a large number of dedicated and highly responsible volunteers. Moreover, I believe that there is no other IEEE society in which the principal volunteers are so often the principal technical contribut...
