Bayesian Asymototics: From Universal Source Coding to General Large-Scale MIMO Capacity

Table of Contents

1. universal source coding

lossless source coding: known param => has optimal encoding; shannon limit

in practice: unknown param of distribution => encoder has a Coding distribution Q. => expected length = cross entropy

redundancy = different of Q and ideal Ptheta = KL div

Bayesian redundancy

minimax redundancy

jeffreys prior, jeffreys mixture, kt distribution, double mixture (context tree weight algoru=ithm)

1.1. connection to learning

good compressor = good predictor

2. Large-Scale MIMO Communication

non-linearity at receiver. general MIMO p(yreceiver|xtransmitter). focus nr->infinity

memoryless channel
