REDUCING MEMORY REQUIRED FOR PREDICTION BY PARTIAL MATCHING MODELS

摘要

Some embodiments of a method and an apparatus to reduce memory required for prediction by partial matching (PPM) models usable in data compression have been presented. In one embodiment, statistics of received data are accumulated in a tree of dynamic tree-type data structures. The data is compressed based on the statistics. The tree of dynamic tree-type data structures may be stored in a computer-readable storage medium.
