Research In Information Theory
This paper studies the rate-distortion-perception (RDP) tradeoff for a Gaussian vector source coding problem where the goal is to compress the multi-component source subject to distortion and perception constraints. Specifically, the RDP setting with either the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence or Wasserstein-2 metric as the perception loss function is examined, and it is shown that for Gaussian vector sources, jointly Gaussian reconstructions are optimal.
