Variable-to-fixed length codes and plurally parsable dictionaries Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • 1999 IEEE. We introduce the idea of plurally parsable dictionaries. For small to moderate dictionary sizes, we show how to design plurally parsable dictionaries that can outperform the optimal uniquely parsable (i.e., Tunstall) dictionary of the same size on very predictable binary, memoryless sources.
