Abstract

A general approach for the quantization of statistical data and distributions
is considered. The concept is closely related to the statistical measurement
of concentration and to the mathematical theory of majorization. In
particular, it is the theoretical basis of those compression algorithms which
are analysed by P¨otzelberger and Strasser (2001).
