The Likelihood Encoder for Source Coding
arXiv:1307.8327
Abstract
The likelihood encoder with a random codebook is demonstrated as an effective tool for source coding. Coupled with a soft covering lemma (associated with channel resolvability), likelihood encoders yield simple achievability proofs for known results, such as rate-distortion theory. They also produce a tractable analysis for secure rate-distortion theory and strong coordination.
