F codes
The notion of an F code is introduced as a generalization of the notion of an L code. All interrelations between ordinary codes of bounded delay, L codes of bounded delay and F codes are established. Attention is also focused on unary morphisms. Many of them are F codes
How Fast Can Dense Codes Achieve the Min-Cut Capacity of Line Networks?
In this paper, we study the coding delay and the average coding delay of
random linear network codes (dense codes) over line networks with deterministic
regular and Poisson transmission schedules. We consider both lossless networks
and networks with Bernoulli losses. The upper bounds derived in this paper,
which are in some cases more general, and in some other cases tighter, than the
existing bounds, provide a more clear picture of the speed of convergence of
dense codes to the min-cut capacity of line networks.Comment: 15 pages, submitted to IEEE ISIT 201
Church-Rosser Systems, Codes with Bounded Synchronization Delay and Local Rees Extensions
What is the common link, if there is any, between Church-Rosser systems,
prefix codes with bounded synchronization delay, and local Rees extensions? The
first obvious answer is that each of these notions relates to topics of
interest for WORDS: Church-Rosser systems are certain rewriting systems over
words, codes are given by sets of words which form a basis of a free submonoid
in the free monoid of all words (over a given alphabet) and local Rees
extensions provide structural insight into regular languages over words. So, it
seems to be a legitimate title for an extended abstract presented at the
conference WORDS 2017. However, this work is more ambitious, it outlines some
less obvious but much more interesting link between these topics. This link is
based on a structure theory of finite monoids with varieties of groups and the
concept of local divisors playing a prominent role. Parts of this work appeared
in a similar form in conference proceedings where proofs and further material
can be found.Comment: Extended abstract of an invited talk given at WORDS 201
One-pass adaptive universal vector quantization
The authors introduce a one-pass adaptive universal quantization technique for real, bounded alphabet, stationary sources. The algorithm is set on line without any prior knowledge of the statistics of the sources which it might encounter and asymptotically achieves ideal performance on all sources that it sees. The system consists of an encoder and a decoder. At increasing intervals, the encoder refines its codebook using knowledge about incoming data symbols. This codebook is then described to the decoder in the form of updates on the previous codebook. The accuracy to which the codebook is described increases as the number of symbols seen, and thus the accuracy to which the codebook is known, grows
