The modern data compression is mainly based on two approaches to entropy coding: Huffman (HC) and arithmetic/range coding (AC). The former is much faster, but approximates probabilities with powers of 2, usually leading to relatively low…
Data compression combined with effective encryption is a common requirement of data storage and transmission. Low cost of these operations is often a high priority in order to increase transmission speed and reduce power usage. This…
An abstract numeration system (ANS) is a numeration system that provides a one-to-one correspondence between the natural numbers and a regular language. In this paper, we define an ANS-based compression as an extension of this…
This paper is intended to be a brief and accessible introduction to the range variant of asymmetric numeral systems (ANS), a system for lossless compression of sequences which can be used as a drop in replacement for arithmetic coding (AC).…
Entropy coding is the backbone data compression. Novel machine-learning based compression methods often use a new entropy coder called Asymmetric Numeral Systems (ANS) [Duda et al., 2015], which provides very close to optimal bitrates and…
In this paper will be presented new approach to entropy coding: family of generalizations of standard numeral systems which are optimal for encoding sequence of equiprobable symbols, into asymmetric numeral systems - optimal for freely…
Compression also known as entropy coding has a rich and long history. However, a recent explosion of multimedia Internet applications (such as teleconferencing and video streaming for instance) renews an interest in fast compression that…
Asymmetric Numeral Systems (ANS) proposed by Jarek Duda are high-performance distortionless data compression schemes that can achieve almost the same compression performance as arithmetic codes with less arithmetic operations than…
This paper proposes a new lossless data compression coding scheme named an asymmetric encoding-decoding scheme (AEDS), which can be considered as a generalization of tANS (tabled variant of asymmetric numeral systems). In the AEDS, a data…
This paper considers a compressed-coding scheme that combines compressed sensing with forward error control coding. Approximate message passing (AMP) is used to decode the message. Based on the state evolution analysis of AMP, we derive the…
Many data compressors regularly encode probability distributions for entropy coding - requiring minimal description length type of optimizations. Canonical prefix/Huffman coding usually just writes lengths of bit sequences, this way…
This paper proposes a novel entropy encoding technique for lossless data compression. Representing a message string by its lexicographic index in the permutations of its symbols results in a compressed version matching Shannon entropy of…
We study the following one-way asymmetric transmission problem, also a variant of model-based compressed sensing: a resource-limited encoder has to report a small set $S$ from a universe of $N$ items to a more powerful decoder (server). The…
Split computing distributes deep neural network inference between resource-constrained edge devices and cloud servers but faces significant communication bottlenecks when transmitting intermediate features. To this end, in this paper, we…
This paper introduces Associative Compression Networks (ACNs), a new framework for variational autoencoding with neural networks. The system differs from existing variational autoencoders (VAEs) in that the prior distribution used to model…
The leading approach for image compression with artificial neural networks (ANNs) is to learn a nonlinear transform and a fixed entropy model that are optimized for rate-distortion performance. We show that this approach can be…
Text encoding is one of the most important steps in Natural Language Processing (NLP). It has been done well by the self-attention mechanism in the current state-of-the-art Transformer encoder, which has brought about significant…
Learning, prediction, and compression are intimately connected: a model that accurately predicts the next symbol in a sequence can be coupled with a source coder to compress that sequence near its information-theoretic limit. When tokenized…
Visual data compression is shifting from human-centered reconstruction to machine-oriented representation coding. In this setting, an image is often mapped to a compact semantic embedding, which is then compressed and transmitted for…
Over the last few years, machine learning unlocked previously infeasible features for compression, such as providing guarantees for users' privacy or tailoring compression to specific data statistics (e.g., satellite images or audio…
