Universality of Logarithmic Loss in Successive Refinement
We establish an universal property of logarithmic loss in the successive refinement problem. If the first decoder operates under logarithmic loss, we show that any discrete memoryless source is successively refinable under an arbitrary distortion criterion for the second decoder. Based on this resul...
