Practical Fixed Length Lempel Ziv Coding
نویسندگان
چکیده
We explore the possibility of transforming the standard encodings of the main LZ methods to be of fixed length, without reverting to the originally suggested encodings. This has the advantage of allowing easier processing and giving more robustness against errors, while only marginally reducing the compression efficiency in certain cases.

Universal Variable-to-Fixed Length Codes Achieving Optimum Large Deviations Performance for Empirical Compression Ratio
This paper clari es two variable-toxed length codes which achieve optimum large deviations performance of empirical compression ratio. One is Lempel-Ziv code with xed number of phrases, and the other is an arithmetic code with xed codeword length. It is shown that Lempel-Ziv code is asymptotically optimum in the above sense, for the class of nite-alphabet and nite-state sources, and that the ar...
متن کاملOptimal Universal Lossless Compression with Side Information
This paper presents conditional versions of Lempel-Ziv (LZ) algorithm for settings where compressor and decompressor have access to the same side information. We propose a fixed-length-parsing LZ algorithm with side information, motivated by the Willems algorithm, and prove the optimality for any stationary processes. In addition, we suggest strategies to improve the algorithm which lower the d...
متن کاملTurbo Source Coding: A Noise-Robust Approach to Data Compression
All traditional data compression techniques, such as Huffman coding, the Lempel-Ziv algorithm, run-length limited coding, Tunstall coding and arithmetic coding are highly susceptible to residual channel errors and noise. We have recently proposed the use of parallel concatenated codes and iterative decoding for fixed-length to fixed-length source coding, i.e., turbo coding for data compression ...
متن کاملTutorial 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 کاملUniversal coding with minimum probability of codeword length overflow
-Lossless block-to-variable length source coding is studied for finite-state, finite-alphabet sources. We aim to minimize the probability that the normalized length of the codeword will exceed a given threshold B, subject to the Kraft inequality. It is shown that the Lempel-Ziv (LZ) algorithm asymptotically attains the optimal performance in the sense just defined, independently of the source a...
