Compressed indexing is a powerful technique that enables efficient querying over data stored in compressed form, significantly reducing memory usage and often accelerating computation. While extensive progress has been made for…
The pressing need for eficient 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…
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…
Converting a compressed format of a string into another compressed format without an explicit decompression is one of the central research topics in string processing. We discuss the problem of converting the run-length Burrows-Wheeler…
Motivated by the imminent growth of massive, highly redundant genomic databases, we study the problem of compressing a string database while simultaneously supporting fast random access, substring extraction and pattern matching to the…
We give simplify the proofs of the 2 results in Marius Zimand's paper "Kolmogorov complexity version of Slepian-Wolf coding, proceedings of STOC 2017, p22--32". The first is a universal polynomial time compression algorithm: on input…
Internal Pattern Matching (IPM) queries on a text $T$, given two fragments $X$ and $Y$ of $T$ such that $|Y|<2|X|$, ask to compute all exact occurrences of $X$ within $Y$. IPM queries have been introduced by Kociumaka, Radoszewski, Rytter,…
Relative Lempel-Ziv (RLZ) parsing is a dictionary compression method in which a string $S$ is compressed relative to a second string $R$ (called the reference) by parsing $S$ into a sequence of substrings that occur in $R$. RLZ is…
Lempel-Ziv is an easy-to-compute member of a wide family of so-called macro schemes; it restricts pointers to go in one direction only. Optimal bidirectional macro schemes are NP-complete to find, but they may provide much better…
This article gives a self-contained analysis of the performance of the Lempel-Ziv compression algorithm on (hidden) Markovian sources. Specifically we include a full proof of the assertion that the compression rate approaches the entropy…
Grammar compression is, next to Lempel-Ziv (LZ77) and run-length Burrows-Wheeler transform (RLBWT), one of the most flexible approaches to representing and processing highly compressible strings. The main idea is to represent a text as a…
The paper proposes an improved error-resilient Lempel-Ziv'77 (LZ'77) algorithm employing an adaptive amount of parity bits for error protection. It is a modified version of error resilient algorithm LZRS'77, proposed recently, which uses a…
We consider the problem of {\em restructuring} compressed texts without explicit decompression. We present algorithms which allow conversions from compressed representations of a string $T$ produced by any grammar-based compression…
We tackle the problems of computing the rightmost variant of the Lempel-Ziv factorizations in the online/sliding model. Previous best bounds for this problem are O(n log n) time with O(n) space, due to Amir et al. [IPL 2002] for the online…
A well-known fact in the field of lossless text compression is that high-order entropy is a weak model when the input contains long repetitions. Motivated by this, decades of research have generated myriads of so-called dictionary…
We propose and study a family of universal sequential probability assignments on individual sequences, based on the incremental parsing procedure of the Lempel-Ziv (LZ78) compression algorithm. We show that the normalized log loss under any…

Prompt engineering enables Large Language Models (LLMs) to perform a variety of tasks. However, lengthy prompts significantly increase computational complexity and economic costs. To address this issue, we study six prompt compression…
Low-rank approximation is a common tool used to accelerate kernel methods: the $n \times n$ kernel matrix $K$ is approximated via a rank-$k$ matrix $\tilde K$ which can be stored in much less space and processed more quickly. In this work…
Indexing highly repetitive collections has become a relevant problem with the emergence of large repositories of versioned documents, among other applications. These collections may reach huge sizes, but are formed mostly of documents that…
