|a We study a novel multi-terminal source coding setup motivated by the biclustering problem. Two separate encoders observe two i.i.d. sequences
|x ^n
| and
|y ^n
|, respectively. The goal is to find rate-limited encodings
|f (x^n)
| and
|g (z^n)
| that maximize the mutual information
|\ textrm{I}(\,{f(X^n)};{g(Y^n)})/n
|. We discuss connections of this problem with hypothesis testing against independence, pattern recognition and the information bottleneck method. Improving previous cardinality bounds for the inner and outer bounds allows us to thoroughly study the special case of a binary symmetric source and to quantify the gap between the inner and the outer bound in this special case. Furthermore, we investigate a multiple description (MD) extension of the CEO problem with mutual information constraint. Surprisingly, this MD-CEO problem permits a tight single-letter characterization of the achievable region. © 2021 The Author(s) 2021.
