Identification and Other Probabilistic Models

Part of the book series: Foundations in Signal Processing, Communications and Networking ((SIGNAL,volume 16))

Abstract

Our models go considerably beyond Shannon’s transmission model and the model of identification. They will greatly enlarge the body of information theory. We substantiate here this belief by a brief discussion of how already the identification model alone had a significant impact.
