| dc.description.abstract | We give a detailed algorithm for fast text compression. Our algorithm, related to
the PPM method, simpli es the modeling phase by eliminating the escape mechanism
and speeds up coding by using a combination of quasi-arithmetic coding and Rice
coding. We provide details of the use of quasi-arithmetic code tables, and analyze
their compression performance. Our Fast PPM method is shown experimentally to be
almost twice as fast as the PPMC method, while giving comparable compression. | |
