Discrete Polar Decoder using Information Bottleneck Method [PDF]
Polar codes are attracting much attention and being used for control channels of the 5th generation of mobile communication system (5G). As a feature, it is easier to implement encoder and decoder than Turbo codes and LDPC (Low Density Parity Check ...

Image Segmentation Using Information Bottleneck Method [PDF]
In image processing, segmentation algorithms constitute one of the main focuses of research. In this paper, new image segmentation algorithms based on a hard version of the information bottleneck method are presented. The objective of this method is to extract a compact representation of a variable, considered the input, with minimal loss of mutual ...

The information bottleneck method [PDF]
We define the relevant information in a signal $x\in X$ as being the information that this signal provides about another signal $y\in \Y$. Examples include the information that face images provide about the names of the people portrayed, or the ...

Coarsely Quantized Decoding and Construction of Polar Codes Using the Information Bottleneck Method
The information bottleneck method is a generic clustering framework from the field of machine learning which allows compressing an observed quantity while retaining as much of the mutual information it shares with the quantity of primary relevance as ...

The Information Bottleneck method for Optimal Prediction of Multilevel Agent-Based Systems [PDF]
Because the dynamics of complex systems is the result of both decisive local events and reinforced global effects, the prediction of such systems could not do without a genuine multilevel approach. This paper proposes to found such an approach on information theory. Starting from a complete microscopic description of the system dynamics, we are looking

Registration-Based Segmentation Using the Information Bottleneck Method [PDF]
We present two new clustering algorithms for medical image segmentation based on the multimodal image registration and the information bottleneck method. In these algorithms, the histogram bins of two registered multimodal 3D-images are clustered by minimizing the loss of mutual information between them. Thus, the clustering of histogram bins is driven

Document clustering using word clusters via the information bottleneck method
We 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.
