Abstract
Up to this point we have considered encoding data modeled as outcomes of random variables, which are defined by an alphabet and a single probability distribution. When such a distribution is sampled repeatedly, we actually generate data by an iid (independent identically distributed) random process. A much more important way to model data sequences is to consider them as samples from a general random process, which we discuss next.
