The problem of predicting a sequence x ; x ; . . . generated by a discrete source with unknown statistics is considered. Each letter x is predicted using the information on the wor...
This paper deals with the problem of universal lossless coding on a countable infinite alphabet. It focuses on some classes of sources defined by an envelope condition on the margi...
Practical applications that employ entropy coding for large alphabets often partition the alphabet set into two or more layers and encode each symbol by using some suitable prefix...

Abstract.1 The scheme of the sliding window is known in Information Theory, Computer Science, the problem of predicting and in stastistics. Let a source with unknown statistics gen...
Text compression algorithms are normally defined in terms of a source alphabet of 8-bit ASCII codes. We consider choosing to be an alphabet whose symbols are the words of Englis...
