UNIVERSALITY OF LOGARITHMIC LOSS IN FIXED-LENGTH LOSSY COMPRESSION

Universality of Logarithmic Loss in Fixed-Length Lossy Compression

We established a universality of logarithmic loss over a finite alphabet as a distortion criterion in fixed-length lossy compression.For any fixed-length lossy-compression problem under an arbitrary distortion criterion, we show that there is an equivalent lossy-compression problem under logarithmic loss.The equivalence is in the strong 6-06 N sens

Rickettsiae exposure related to habitats of the oriental house rat (Rattus tanezumi, Temminck, 1844) in Salaya suburb, Thailand

Rickettsial zoonotic diseases, in particular scrub typhus, murine typhus, and tick typhus, are eyebrow powder caused by Orientia tsutsugamushi, Rickettsia typhi, and Rickettsia honei infections.Rickettsiae exposure is typically related to a rodent host in various habitats of marginal regions, including between rural areas and communities such as th
