SoftBinary Coding: A New Information-Theoretic Neural Compression Paradigm
Ezgi Ozyilkan, Sharang M. Sriramu, Elza Erkip +2
Neural compression is currently dominated by Nonlinear Transform Coding (NTC), which maps data to real-valued latents via continuous transforms. Despite its success, NTC suffers fr…

Neural Compress-and-Forward for the Primitive Diamond Relay Channel
Ozan Aygün, Ezgi Ozyilkan, Elza Erkip
The diamond relay channel, where a source communicates with a destination via two parallel relays, is one of the canonical models for cooperative communications. We focus on the pr…
