Huffman coding finds an optimal prefix code for a given probability mass function. Consider situations in which one wishes to find an optimal code with the restriction that all cod...
Given a probability distribution over a set of n words to be transmitted, the Huffman Coding problem is to find a minimal-cost prefix free code for transmitting those words. The b...
It is well-known that, given a probability distribution over n characters, in the worst case it takes (n log n) bits to store a prefix code with minimum expected codeword length. H...
Lossless compression is studied for pairs of independent integer-valued symbols emitted by a source with a geometric probability distribution of parameter q (0, 1). Optimal prefix...
