The Likelihood Encoder for Source Coding
Paul Cuff, Eva C. Song
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), li…
A Connection between Good Rate-distortion Codes and Backward DMCs
Curt Schieler, Paul Cuff
Let be a sequence drawn from a discrete memoryless source, and let be the corresponding reconstruction sequence that is output by a good…
Secure Cascade Channel Synthesis
Sanket Satpathy, Paul Cuff
We investigate channel synthesis in a cascade setting where nature provides an iid sequence at node 1. Node 1 can send a message at rate to node 2 and node 2 can send a…
Rate-Distortion Theory for Secrecy Systems
Curt Schieler, Paul Cuff
Secrecy in communication systems is measured herein by the distortion that an adversary incurs. The transmitter and receiver share secret key, which they use to encrypt communicati…
Optimal Equivocation in Secrecy Systems a Special Case of Distortion-based Characterization
Paul Cuff
Recent work characterizing the optimal performance of secrecy systems has made use of a distortion-like metric for partial secrecy as a replacement for the more traditional metric…
