TLDR
A coding theorem is established for a trellis encoding of a stationary and ergodic source over a discrete memoryless noisy channel which shows that such communication systems can perform arbitrarily close to the source distortion-rate function evaluated at the channel capacity.
Abstract
In a trellis encoding communication system the decoder is a time-invariant nonlinear filter with finite memory (sliding-block code), and the encoder is a trellis search algorithm matched to the decoder. A coding theorem is established for a trellis encoding of a stationary and ergodic source over a discrete memoryless noisy channel which shows that such communication systems can perform arbitrarily close to the source distortion-rate function evaluated at the channel capacity.

Quantization

TL;DR: The key to a successful quantization is the selection of an error criterion – such as entropy and signal-to-noise ratio – and the development of optimal quantizers for this criterion.

Deterministic annealing for clustering, compression, classification, regression, and related optimization problems

TL;DR: The deterministic annealing approach to clustering and its extensions has demonstrated substantial performance improvement over standard supervised and unsupervised learning methods in a variety of important applications including compression, estimation, pattern recognition and classification, and statistical regression.

Pseudo-Gray coding

TL;DR: The binary switching algorithm is introduced, based on the objective of minimizing a useful upper bound on the average system distortion, which yields a significant reduction in average distortion, and converges in reasonable running times.

The design of joint source and channel trellis waveform coders

TL;DR: The generalized Lloyd algorithm is applied to the design of joint source and channel trellis waveform coders to encode discrete-time continuous-amplitude stationary and ergodic sources operating over discrete memoryless noisy channels and it is observed that the jointly optimized codes achieve performance close to or better than that of separately optimized tandem codes of the same constraint length.
