Information theory and inference, often taught separately, are here united in one entertaining textbook. These topics lie at the heart of many exciting areas of contemporary science and engineering - communication, signal processing, data mining, machine learning, pattern recognition, computational neuroscience, bioinformatics, and cryptography. This textbook introduces theory in tandem with applications. Information theory is taught alongside practical communication systems, such as arithmetic coding for data compression and sparse-graph codes for error-correction. A toolbox of inference techniques, including message-passing algorithms, Monte Carlo methods, and variational approximations, are developed alongside applications of these tools to clustering, convolutional codes, independent component analysis, and neural networks. The final part of the book describes the state of the art in error-correcting codes, including low-density parity-check codes, turbo codes, and digital fountain codes -- the twenty-first century standards for satellite communications, disk drives, and data broadcast. Richly illustrated, filled with worked examples and over 400 exercises, some with detailed solutions, David MacKay's groundbreaking book is ideal for self-learning and for undergraduate or graduate courses. Interludes on crosswords, evolution, and sex provide entertainment along the way. In sum, this is a textbook on information, communication, and coding for a new generation of students, and an unparalleled entry point into these subjects for professionals in areas as diverse as computational biology, financial engineering, and machine learning.

可惜看過瞭,理解不深刻,又忘瞭。 準備拾起來,雖然基本上工作用不上,就當是完成一個念想吧! 加油!
評分我感覺啊,這本書寫的條理很清晰,可是太簡明扼要瞭好像,我讀不懂。可我碰到的問題上麵有介紹,我又沒找到其它地方,我隻有讀這個,可我讀不懂。我鬱悶。
評分信息論是我覺得最有用的課程之一,不管是科研,還是現實生活。 首先從信息論的角度看數字編碼,從二進製,十進製,再到二十進製,其實是在用越來越多的符號來編碼無窮盡的數字。二進製隻需要兩個符號0,1就可以編碼所有數字,每個字符信息量較小,代價就是編碼長度及其長,不利...
評分學習信息論的時候,老師推薦的,然後就買來瞭。實例很多,習題也很經典,花費瞭一個學期看瞭一遍,感覺對信息論的理解完全高瞭好多個層次。
