TL;DR
This paper introduces the concept of source polarization, explores its theoretical properties, and discusses applications to Slepian-Wolf coding for binary sources, with brief considerations for non-binary cases.
Contribution
It extends the idea of polarization from channels to sources and applies it to source coding, specifically Slepian-Wolf coding, for binary alphabets.
Findings
Source polarization is established for binary sources.
Application to Slepian-Wolf coding demonstrates practical relevance.
Brief discussion on extending results to non-binary alphabets.
Abstract
The notion of source polarization is introduced and investigated. This complements the earlier work on channel polarization. An application to Slepian-Wolf coding is also considered. The paper is restricted to the case of binary alphabets. Extension of results to non-binary alphabets is discussed briefly.
