✦ Synopsis
Abstract
The combination of graphical models and belief propagation algorithms has found wide acceptance in the design of communication systems. We extend the general framework of joint source‐channel decoding on graphs to account for estimation problems in which the goal is not to decode the entire data set but to estimate a function of the transmitted data. This problem is deemed relevant, for example in the context of wireless sensor networks. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

## Abstract We study the role of entanglement in the transmission of classical information over noisy quantum channels. We show that entanglement leads to an enhancement of the mutual information when the transmission channel is not memoryless.
