Applied Digital Information theory
This note serves as a comprehensive guide to fundamental concepts in information theory and coding. This pdf provides discrete probability theory, information theory, and coding principles. Beginning with Shannon's measure of information, then delves into the efficient coding of information, the methodology of typical sequences is introduced, emphasizing the distinction between lossy and lossless source encoding. The text also discusses coding for noisy digital channels, block coding principles and tree and trellis coding principles.

Lecture Notes on statistics and information Theory
This lecture note navigates through information theory, statistics and measure theory. It covers fundamental concepts such as definitions, chain rules, data processing inequalities, and divergences and extends to optimal procedures, LeCam’s and Fano’s inequalities, and operational results like entropy and source coding. It also focus on exponential families and statistical modeling, fitting procedures, and lower bounds on testing parameters, sub-Gaussian and sub-exponential random variables, martingale methods, uniformity covering topics such as Kullback-Leibler divergence, PAC-Bayes bounds, interactive data analysis, and error bounds.
