Summary of my PhD Research

The two pillars of information theory, data compression and channel coding, are often considered as having reached maturity a long time ago. Our research brings fresh perspectives to both these areas by challenging long-standing assumptions and introducing new frameworks. By reformulating foundational problems and upending established results, we have expanded the theoretical boundaries of the field, offering more robust, practical, and adaptable models for modern applications.
