Abstract

This dissertation is composed of three contributions, which have in common the use of tools from geometry and/or statistics in applications to communications and learning. The first of them concerns the construction of spherical codes from a recursive procedure based on the sphere foliations given by the Hopf fibration. In the second one, we propose a method for lossy vector compression, formed by a data-adapted quantiser, followed by compression of the quantisation indices with a context-tree algorithm. The third consists in using a loss function based on the Fisher-Rao distance in the manifold of discrete distributions for training neural networks, particularly under label noise (AU)
