High-Resolution Scalar Quantization With Rényi Entropy Constraint

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We consider optimal scalar quantization with rth power distortion and constrained R'enyi entropy of order alpha. For sources with an absolutely continuous distribution the high rate asymptotics of the quantizer distortion has long been known for alpha=0 (fixed-rate quantization) and alpha=1 (entropy-constrained quantization). For a large class of absolutely continuous source distributions we determine the sharp asymptotics of the optimal quantization distortion for alphain[−infty,0)cup(0,1). The achievability proof is based on finding (asymptotically) optimal quantizers via the companding approach, and is thus constructive.
