摘要
This paper describes a method to randomly generate vectors of symbol probabilities so that the corresponding discrete memoryless source has a prescribed entropy. One application is to Monte Carlo simulation of the performance of noiseless variable length source coding. (C) 2000 The Franklin Institute. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
