We thank the reviewers for the time they have spent on this work and their valuable comments. Below please find the responses to the main raised comments. R1: Section 5 seems disconnected. The results of Section 5 are based on a direct application of "conditioning" Its application along with Lemma 2 produces the results of Section 4. But it is not restricted to this case (the title of Section 4 will be changed to eliminate this confusion). Thank you for this careful observation. Section 5 for proving the generalization bound remains unchanged (actually the term "rate-distortion" was used taking We will emphasize on this and add the related reference.
