Abstract:
Driven by a host of emerging applications, distributed source coding has
assumed renewed interest in the past decade. Although the Slepian-Wolf
theorem has been known for almost 40 years and progresses have been made
recently on the rate region of quadratic Gaussian two-terminal source
coding, finding the sum-rate bound of quadratic Gaussian multiterminal
source coding with more than two terminals is still an open problem. In
this talk, I'll briefly go over existing results on distributed source
coding problems before describing a set of new results we obtained
recently.
