This module provides an overview of the fundamentals of coding a discrete information source for compressing its messages. You will study the significant parameters of the coding process that ensures the elimination of redundancy.

This module describes the various techniques used to compress databases. You will study the various schemes and bounding strategies used for reducing the storage space.

This assessment enables you to review your learning so you can determine your knowledge and understanding of the following course: Diploma in the Foundations of Information Theory - First Course Assessment. If you do not achieve the required grade after the first attempt, you can retake the assessment until a successful outcome is achieved.

This module describes the notion of channel coding in information theory. You will be taught about the procedures for tracing and rectifying blunders during the communication process.

The module explains the process of mimicking the effect of random processes using additive gaussian noise channels. You will study the procedure for determining the continuous probability distributions of random variables and the significance of the water filling technique in enhancing capacity in noisy channels.
