چکیده
The Lempel-Ziv algorithms are well-known dynamic dictionary algorithms of use in data compression. The talk shows how analytic models originally developed for the analysis of tries and digital search trees may be used to characterize their compression characteristics.

Tutorial on Lempel-Ziv Data Compression Algorithm
In many scenario of digital communication and data processing, we may deal with strings of data which have certain structural regularities, making it possible for time-saving techniques of data compression. Given a discrete data source, the data compression problem is first to identify the limitations of the source, and second to devise a coding scheme which will best compress it subject to cer...
متن کاملSource coding, large deviations, and approximate pattern matching
In this review paper, we present a development of parts of rate-distortion theory and pattern-matching algorithms for lossy data compression, centered around a lossy version of the asymptotic equipartition property (AEP). This treatment closely parallels the corresponding development in lossless compression, a point of view that was advanced in an important paper of Wyner and Ziv in 1989. In th...
متن کاملUniversal prediction of individual sequences
Abstruct-The problem of predicting the next outcome of an individual binary sequence using finite memory, is considered. The finite-state predictability of an infinite sequence is defined as the minimum fraction of prediction errors that can be made by any finite-state (FS) predictor. It is proved that this FS predictability can be attained by universal sequential prediction schemes. Specifical...
متن کاملPushdown Compression
The pressing need for efficient compression schemes for XML documents has recently been focused on stack computation [6, 9], and in particular calls for a formulation of information-lossless stack or pushdown compressors that allows a formal analysis of their performance and a more ambitious use of the stack in XML compression, where so far it is mainly connected to parsing mechanisms. In this ...
متن کاملUniversal coding of nonstationary sources
In this correspondence we investigate the performance of the Lempel–Ziv incremental parsing scheme on nonstationary sources. We show that it achieves the best rate achievable by a finite-state block coder for the nonstationary source. We also show a similar result for a lossy coding scheme given by Yang and Kieffer which uses a Lempel–Ziv scheme to perform lossy coding.
