Polylog Space Compression Is Incomparable with Lempel-Ziv and Pushdown Compression

چکیده
This paper considers online compression algorithms that use at most polylogarithmic space (plogon). These algorithms correspond to compressors in the data stream model. We study the performance attained by these algorithms and show they are incomparable with both pushdown compressors and the Lempel-Ziv compression algorithm.

Pushdown 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 کاملBounded Pushdown Dimension vs Lempel Ziv Information Density
In this paper we introduce a variant of pushdown dimension called bounded pushdown (BPD) dimension, that measures the density of information contained in a sequence, relative to a BPD automata, i.e. a finite state machine equipped with an extra infinite memory stack, with the additional requirement that every input symbol only allows a bounded number of stack movements. BPD automata are a natur...
متن کاملSmaller and Faster Lempel-Ziv Indices
Given a text T [1..u] over an alphabet of size σ = O(polylog(u)) and with k-th order empirical entropy Hk(T ), we propose a new compressed full-text self-index based on the Lempel-Ziv (LZ) compression algorithm, which replaces T with a representation requiring about three times the size of the compressed text, i.e (3+ ǫ)uHk(T )+ o(u log σ) bits, for any ǫ > 0 and k = o(log σ u), and in addition...
متن کاملLempel-Ziv Dimension for Lempel-Ziv Compression
This paper describes the Lempel-Ziv dimension (Hausdorff like dimension inspired in the LZ78 parsing), its fundamental properties and relation with Hausdorff dimension. It is shown that in the case of individual infinite sequences, the Lempel-Ziv dimension matches with the asymptotical Lempel-Ziv compression ratio. This fact is used to describe results on Lempel-Ziv compression in terms of dime...
متن کاملByte pair encoding : a text compression scheme that accelerates pattern matching
Byte pair encoding (BPE) is a simple universal text compression scheme. Decompression is very fast and requires small work space. Moreover, it is easy to decompress an arbitrary part of the original text. However, it has not been so popular since the compression is rather slow and the compression ratio is not as good as other methods such as Lempel-Ziv type compression. In this paper, we bring ...
