Information Theory, Inference, And Learning Algorithms

Information theory and inference, often taught separately, are here united in one entertaining textbook. These topics lie at the heart of many exciting areas of contemporary science and engineering - communication, signal processing, data mining, machine learning, pattern recognition, computational neuroscience, bioinformatics, and cryptography. This textbook introduces theory in tandem with applications. Information theory is taught alongside practical communication systems, such as arithmetic coding for data compression and sparse-graph codes for error-correction.

Information Theory and Statistical Learning presents theoretical and practical results about information theoretic methods used in the context of statistical learning.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 26th International Conference on Algorithmic Learning Theory, ALT 2015, held in Banff, AB, Canada, in October 2015, and co-located with the 18th International Conference on Discovery Science, DS 2015. The 23 full papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 44 submissions.
