Graph Problems with Applications in Source and Channel Coding

(V2)

Vorlesung (Blockkurs): 25.9. bis 30.10., Do 16 h - 18 h /Z 613
Themengebiet: Angewandte Informatik

Doz.: Jean Cardinal

Adressaten:

Studierende in den Masterprogrammen Information Engineering Studierende im Bachelorprogramm ab 5. Semester

Inhalt:

We will discuss graph-theoretic problems such as vertex ordering or graph coloring that have applications in source and channel coding systems. In particular, the lectures will concern index assignment methods for quantization, the problem of coding with side information, in which the notion of "characteristic graph" plays a central role, then the problem of source coding with a maximum distortion criterion, and finally graph compression, with applications for instance to compression of the web graph. The latter subject is related to properties of some random graph models. No specific background is required, apart from the standard definitions for graphs and basic information-theoretic quantities.
