Prevalence ( 7 March 2008 )

Prevalence is a measure-theoretic notion for subsets of infinite-dimensional spaces that is 2 analogous to ‘full Lebesgue measure’ in Euclidean spaces. Many properties in dynamical systems 3 have been proved to hold for a topologically generic subset of a certain space of maps or flows, and 4 more recently some of these properties have been found to be prevalent, while some have been found 5 no...

TR - INF - 2008 - 03 - 02 - UNIPMN ( March 2008 )

Move-to-Front, Distance Coding and Inversion Frequencies are three somewhat related techniques used to process the output of the Burrows-Wheeler Transform. In this paper we analyze these techniques from the point of view of how effective they are in the task of compressing low-entropy strings, that is, strings which have many regularities and are therefore highly compressible. This is a non-tri...
