Recent results in the Shannon theory

Wyner, A.·1974·IEEE Transactions on Information Theory

Abstract

The first part of this paper consists of short summaries of recent work in five rather traditional areas of the Shannon theory, namely: 1) source and channel coding theorems for new situations; 2) calculation of source rate and channel capacity; 3) channel coding with feedback; 4) source coding; 5) universal coding. The second part of thc paper consists of a relatively detailed discussion of some aspects of the area that the author considers to be the most dynamic and exciting in the Shannon theory: multiple-user communication. The discussion here includes "multiple-access channels," "broadcast channels," and various source coding problems with multiple-user constraints.

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.
