Foundations Of Information Theory: McGraw-Hill Electrical And Electronic Engineering Series (in English)
Synopsis "Foundations Of Information Theory: McGraw-Hill Electrical And Electronic Engineering Series (in English)"
Foundations of Information Theory is a comprehensive textbook written by Amiel Feinstein and published as part of the McGraw-Hill Electrical and Electronic Engineering Series. The book provides a detailed introduction to the field of information theory, covering topics such as entropy, coding theory, channel capacity, and error-correcting codes. The first section of the book introduces the basic concepts of information theory, including entropy and mutual information. The second section covers coding theory, including topics such as Huffman coding, arithmetic coding, and Lempel-Ziv coding. The third section focuses on channel capacity and the communication of information over noisy channels, while the fourth section covers error-correcting codes, including linear codes, cyclic codes, and convolutional codes. Throughout the book, the author provides numerous examples and exercises to help readers understand and apply the concepts presented. The book is designed for use in undergraduate and graduate courses in electrical engineering, computer science, and mathematics, as well as for researchers and professionals working in the field of information theory. With its clear explanations, comprehensive coverage, and practical examples, Foundations of Information Theory is an essential resource for anyone interested in this important field.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
