Rate-Distortion Theory is a branch of information theory that characterizes the fundamental tradeoff between the bit rate used to represent a source and the distortion incurred in its reconstruction, by determining the minimum achievable rate for a given distortion measure and constraint, thereby providing the theoretical basis for optimal lossy compression.
