We consider problems where one wishes to represent a parameter associatedwith a signal source – subject to a certain rate and distortion– based on the observation of a number of realizations of the sourcesignal. By reducing these indirect vector quantization problems toa standard vector quantization one, we provide a bound to the fundamentalinterplay between the rate and distortion in the large-ratesetting. We specialize this characterization to two particular quantizationscenarios: i) the representation of the mean of a multivariateGaussian source; and ii) the representation of the eigen-spectrumof a multivariate Gaussian source. Numerical results compare ourquantization approach to an approach where one recovers the parametersfrom the representation of the source signals itself: in additionto revealing that the characterization is sharp in the large-rate setting,the results also show that our approach offers considerable gains.
