the robustness property can be added to dsc system at the expense of reducing performance, i.e., increasing the sum-rate. the aim of designing robust dsc schemes is to trade off between system robustness and compression efficiency. in this paper, after deriving an inner bound on the rate–distortion region for the quadratic gaussian mdc based rdsc system with two encoders, the structure of the r...

Entropy coded scaler quantization (ECSQ) performs 1.53 dB from optimal lossy compression at high data rates. In this paper, we generalize this result for distributed source coding with side information. 1-D nested scaler quantization with Slepian-Wolf coding is compared to Wyner-Ziv coding of i.i.d. Gaussian sources at high data rates. We show that nested scaler quantization with Slepian-Wolf c...

Multiterminal (MT) source coding refers to separate lossy encoding and joint decoding of multiple correlated sources. This paper presents two practical MT coding schemes under the same general framework of Slepian-Wolf coded quantization (SWCQ) for both direct and indirect quadratic Gaussian MT source coding problems with two encoders. The first asymmetric SWCQ scheme relies on quantization and...

A new form of trellis coded quantization based on uniform quantization thresholds and "on-the-fly" quantizer training is presented. The universal trellis coded quantization (UTCQ) technique requires neither stored codebooks nor a computationally intense codebook design algorithm. Its performance is comparable with that of fully optimized entropy-constrained trellis coded quantization (ECTCQ) fo...

Embedded Trellis Coded Quantization (E-TCQ) is introduced as an embedded quantization technique which achieves good rate-distortion performance for reasonable computational complexity. The performance of E-TCQ is investigated for memoryless Gaussian, Laplacian, and uniform sources. E-TCQ is shown to outperform multi-stage TCQ. For Gaussian and Laplacian sources the performance of E-TCQ shows la...

A thorough description of trellis-coded quantization as a nearly-optimal source coding system is presented. Trelliscoded quantizers couple traditional quantization techniques with finite state machines to build effective high dimensional vector quantizers. In a trellis-coded quantizer, each transition of the related finite state machine is labeled, by means of a convolutional code, with one of ...
