Abstract: The three-node multiterminal lossy source coding problem is investigated. We derive an inner bound to the general rate-distortion region of this problem which is a natural extension of the seminal work by Kaspi'85 on the interactive two-terminal source coding problem. It is shown that this (rather involved) inner bound contains several rate-distortion regions of some relevant source coding settings. In this way, besides the non-trivial extension of the interactive two terminal problem, our results can be seen as a generalization and hence unification of several previous works in the field. Specializing to particular cases we obtain novel rate-distortion regions for several lossy source coding problems. We finish by describing some of the open problems and challenges. However, the general three-node multiterminal lossy source coding problem seems to offer a formidable mathematical complexity.
