Design of quantizers for decentralized estimation systems
Abstract
The authors consider parameter estimation in decentralized systems with distributed processors. They restrict the local processors to be quantizers and consider the optimal design of the systems to minimize the estimation error. They present necessary conditions for the optimal system based on the Bayes distortion functions and Fisher's information. The numerical results compare the resulting quantizers obtained by different distortion criteria.>

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
