📝 Abstract
We revisit a multiterminal lossy source coding problem named successive refinement and derive the rate-distortion-perception region under the strong-sense perfect perception constraint in the presence of unlimited common randomness. Specifically, in successive refinement, one aims to compress a source sequence and allows two distinct decoders to recover the source sequence at different distortion levels. By imposing the strong-sense perfect perception constraint, our results refine the previous result by analyzing the impact of the perceptual quality. Our achievability proof is inspired by output constrained lossy source coding and our converse proof adapts the proof steps of the standard successive refinement problem. Furthermore, we provide a numerical example of the Bernoulli source to illustrate our result and show that the Bernoulli source under Hamming distortion is successively refinable even with the strong-sense perfect perception constraint.
