Abstract:
1. A method for generating a merged data array comprising: determining that a first compressed data array has a larger uncompressed size than a second compressed data array, wherein the first and second compressed data arrays contain vector entries each including a vector and compression information that specifies a number of vector instances; for each of one or more non-overlapping vector entries of the first compressed data array that do not overlap vector entries of the second compressed data array, generating a non-overlap vector entry for a merged compressed data array that includes; for an overlapping vector entry of the first compressed data array that encompasses a point of overlap of vector instances between a first vector of the first compressed data array and a second vector of the second compressed data array, generating first and second overlap vector entries for the merged compressed data array, wherein the first overlap vector entry includes: wherein the second overlap vector entry includes:
