DACs: Bringing direct access to variable-length codes
We present a new variable-length encoding scheme for sequences of integers, Directly Addressable Codes (DACs), which enables direct access to any element of the encoded sequence without the need of any sampling method. Our proposal is a kind of implicit data structure that introduces synchronism in the encoded sequence without using asymptotically any extra space. We show some experiments demon...
متن کاملVariable-to-fixed length codes are better than fixed-to-variable length codes for Markov sources
-It is demonstrated that for finite-alphabet, Kth order ergodic Markov Sources (i.e., memory of K letters), a variable-to-fixed code is better than the best fixed-to-variable code (Huffman code). It is shown how to construct a variable-to-fixed length code for a Kth order ergodic Markov source, which compresses more effectively than the best fixed-to-variable code (Huffman code).

متن کاملUniversal variable-to-fixed length source codes
A universal variable-to-fixed length algorithm for binary memoryless sources which converges to the entropy of the source at the optimal rate is known. We study the problem of universal variable-to-fixed length coding for the class of Markov sources with finite alphabets. We give an upper bound on the performance of the code for large dictionary sizes and show that the code is optimal in the se...
متن کاملImproved Variable-to-Fixed Length Codes
Though many compression methods are based on the use of variable length codes, there has recently been a trend to search for alternatives in which the lengths of the codewords are more restricted, which can be useful for fast decoding and compressed searches. This paper explores the construction of variable-to-fixed length codes, which have been suggested long ago by Tunstall. Using a new heuri...
