A Generalization of Blahut-Arimoto Algorithm to Compute Rate-Distortion Regions of Multiterminal Source Coding Under Logarithmic Loss

Yigit Ugur, Inaki Estella Aguerri, Abdellatif Zaidi

In this paper, we present iterative algorithms that numerically compute the rate-distortion regions of two problems: the two-encoder multiterminal source coding problem and the Chi…
