Coarsely Quantized Layered Decoding Using the Information Bottleneck Method
ICC 2021 - IEEE International Conference on Communications, 2021In recent years coarsely quantized LDPC decoding using a flooding schedule has been extensively studied. However, there exist few works addressing coarse quantization for a layered schedule, which enables improved convergence speed of the message passing algorithm.

Polar code construction using the information bottleneck method
2018 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference Workshops (WCNCW), 2018The provably capacity-achieving error-correction capability of polar codes prospered huge interest in academia and industry. The explicit structure of polar codes leads to a different notion of code construction which refers to the assignment of information bits to certain positions in that structure instead of the design of the structure itself. State-

Determine the Optimal Parameter for Information Bottleneck Method
2006A natural question in Information Bottleneck method is how many "groups" are appropriate. The dependency on prior knowledge restricts the applications of many Information Bottleneck algorithms. In this paper we aim to remove this dependency by formulating the parameter choosing as a model selection problem, and solve it using the minimum message length

Unsupervised Image Clustering Using the Information Bottleneck Method
2002A new method for unsupervised image category clustering is presented, based on a continuous version of a recently introduced information theoretic principle, the information bottleneck (IB). The clustering method is based on hierarchical grouping: Utilizing a Gaussian mixture model, each image in a given archive is first represented as a set of ...

Finding the Optimal Cardinality Value for Information Bottleneck Method
2006Information Bottleneck method can be used as a dimensionality reduction approach by grouping “similar” features together [1]. In application, a natural question is how many “features groups” will be appropriate. The dependency on prior knowledge restricts the applications of many Information Bottleneck algorithms.

Cross-Modal Clustering With Deep Correlated Information Bottleneck Method
IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and Learning SystemsCross-modal clustering (CMC) intends to improve the clustering accuracy (ACC) by exploiting the correlations across modalities. Although recent research has made impressive advances, it remains a challenge to sufficiently capture the correlations across modalities due to the high-dimensional nonlinear characteristics of individual modalities and the ...

A Novel Approach to Distributed Quantization via Multivariate Information Bottleneck Method
2019 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM), 2019Consider following setup: A number of observations from a data source shall be compressed jointly prior to a forward transmission via several rate- limited links to a central processing unit. To design the respective quantizers, here, Mutual Information is chosen as the fidelity criterion and the broad-ranging structure of Multivariate Information ...

Document clustering using word clusters via the information bottleneck method
Proceedings of the 23rd annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval, 2000We present a novel implementation of the recently introduced information bottleneck method for unsupervised document clustering. Given a joint empirical distribution of words and documents, p(x, y), we first cluster the words, Y, so that the obtained word clusters, Ytilde;, maximally preserve the information on the documents.
