Non-IID Sequence Can Have Smaller Entropy For sequences that are not IID, we may have:
This means that for very dependent sequences:
so to measure how good our compression is, we should use this. signal a signal is, mathematically, just a function.
whereby the input is space (time, coordinates, etc.) and the output is the “signal” (pressure, level of gray, RGB, etc.) here’s a sidebar: sinusoid \begin{equation} y_{f}(t) = A \sin \left(2 \pi f t + \phi\right) \end{equation} we make a whole rotation in \frac{1}{f} time, and we start at \phi, and we will go to A height. Recall sinusoids are L-periodic. The units for sinusoids: t is seconds, f is \frac{1}{s}, and amplitude is some unit. L-periodic See L-periodic and the period of the function. triangle wave we can construct a triangle wave by creating an Fourier Series of the shape:
where:
and:
This creates a tringle of height 1.5 at t = 0
