            Abstract : 
We consider the Binary Erasure Source (BES) introduced by Martinian and Yedidia. Based on the technique introduced by Martinian and Wainwright, we upper bound the rate-distortion performance of the check regular Poisson LDGM ensemble and the compound LDGM-LDPC ensemble for the BES. We also show that there exist compound LDGM-LDPC codes, with degrees independent of the block-length, which can achieve any given point on the Shannon rate-distortion curve of the BES.
