Distributed Source Coding, Multiple Description Coding, and Source Coding with Side Information at Decoders Using Constrained-Random Number Generators
<|reference_start|>Distributed Source Coding, Multiple Description Coding, and Source Coding with Side Information at Decoders Using Constrained-Random Number Generators: This paper investigates a unification of distributed source coding, multiple description coding, and source coding with side information at decoders. The equivalence between the multiple-decoder extension of distributed source coding with decoder side information and the multiple-source extension of multiple description coding with decoder side information is clarified. Their multi-letter rate-distortion region for arbitrary general correlated sources is characterized in terms of entropy functions. We construct a code based on constrained-random number generators and show its achievability.<|reference_end|>
