Scalar quantization with random thresholds

The distortion-rate performance of certain randomly-designed scalar quantizers is determined. The central results are the mean-squared error distortion and output entropy for quantizing a uniform random variable with thresholds drawn independently from a uniform distribution. The distortion is at mo...
