Abstract

By considering a sequence of discrete i.i.d random variables x1,...,xn and a distortion measure d(x,x) on the estimate x of x, two sequences of the x={x1,...,xn} are obtained. From the two descriptions, three estimates with E{1/nΣk=1 nd(xk,xmk) }≤Δm, distortions are obtained. The set (R1,R2012 is found to be achievable only if a probability mass distribution p(x)p(x0,x1,x2|x) with E1/nΣk=1 nd(xkx$+$/mk) ≤Δm exists. In order to ensure that x0 has distortion less or equal to Δ0, the excess rate I(x;x$+$/0|x$+$/1,x$+$/2) should be added to I(x;x$+$/1) and I(x;x$+$/2).
