P
  • Idea
  • Interpret Y as a noisy version of X with
    channel errors D
  • Encoder generates parity bits P to protect
    against errors D
  • Decoder concatenates Y and P and performs
    error-correcting decoding

10
Practical Slepian-Wolf Encoding
  • Coset codes Pradhan and Ramchandran, 1999
  • Trellis codes Wang and Orchard, 2001
  • Turbo codes
  • Garcia-Frias and Zhao, 2001
  • Bajcsy and Mitran, 2001
  • Aaron and Girod, 2002
  • LDPC codes Liveris, Xiong, and Georghiades,
    2002

Results for Compression of Binary Sequences
  • X,Y dependent binary sequences with symmetric
    cross-over probabilities
  • Rate 4/5 constituent convolutional codes
  • RX0.5 bit per input bit

Channel Coding vs. Slepian-Wolf Coding
  • Systematic Channel Coding
  • Systematic bits and parity bits subject to
    bit-errors
  • Mostly memoryless BSC channel
  • Low bit-error rate of channel
  • Rate savings relative to systematic bits
  • Slepian-Wolf Coding
  • No bit errors in parity bits
  • General statistics incl. memory
  • Whole range of error probabilities
  • Rate savings relative to parity bits
  • Might have to compete with conventional
    compression (e.g., arithmetic coding)

Wyner-Ziv Quantizers Lessons Learnt
  • Typically no quantizer index reuse for rate
    constraint H(QY) and high rates Slepian-Wolf
    code provides more efficient many-to-one mapping
    in very high dimensional space.
  • Uniform quantizers close to minimum m.s.e., when
    combined with efficient Slepian-Wolf code
  • Quantizer index reuse required for rate
    constraint H(Q) and for fixed-length coding
  • Important to decouple dimension of quantizer
    (i.e. scalar) and Slepian-Wolf code (very large)
