This work demonstrates a formal connection between density estimation with a data-rate constraint and the joint objective of fixed-rate universal lossy source coding and model identification.
      
    
   
  
  
    
    
      
      This work introduces the notion of almost lossless source coding for infinite alphabets information sources.
      
    
   
  
  
    
    
      
      This talks covers the analysis of worse-case redundancies in universal source coding in infinite alphabets.
