What will I learn?

Gain practical expertise in information theory by mastering entropy calculations, fixed-length and prefix-free coding techniques, and Huffman coding designs. Model sources with 10 symbols, assess compression ratios, encode actual messages, and analyse noisy channels for error detection, correction, and trade-offs to build efficient data systems.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Design entropy-based codes by computing H, bits per symbol, and inefficiency swiftly.
  • Build Huffman-style prefix codes to assign optimal bitstrings to symbols efficiently.
  • Model text sources and estimate symbol probabilities from real English language data.
  • Analyse noisy channels to quantify bit errors, propagation effects, and bit error rates.
  • Balance compression efficiency with reliability by selecting block sizes, redundancy levels, and validation tests.
