Beyond Countable Alphabets: An Extension of the Information-Spectrum Approach

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

A general approach is established for deriving one-shot performance bounds for information-theoretic problems on general alphabets beyond countable alphabets. It is mainly based on the quantization idea and a novel form of "likelihood ratio". As an example, one-shot lower and upper bounds for random number generation from correlated sources on general alphabets are derived.
