Abstract
Variational principles for the rate distortion (RD) theory, and the information bottleneck (IB) method, are formulated within the ambit of the generalized nonextensive statistics of Tsallis. Numerical schemes for the nonextensive RD theory and IB method are derived. The physical implications of using nonextensive statistics vis-a-vis Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics are exemplified with the aid of numerical simulations
