A rate-distortion theory for permutation spaces

We investigate the lossy compression of the permutation space by analyzing the trade-off between the size of a source code and the distortion with respect to either Kendall tau distance or ℓ[subscript 1] distance of the inversion vectors. For both distortion measures, we characterize the rate-distor...
