Abstract:
1. A method for encoding an input sequence of bins, using a computing device, to produce encoded data, the method comprising: parsing, with the computing device, the input sequence into subsequences of bins, each subsequence of bins being associated with a respective one of a predefined number of probability estimates; parallel entropy coding, with the computing device, the subsequences of bins to generate subsequences of codewords, wherein each subsequence of codewords is associated with its respective one of the predefined number of probability estimates; and interleaving, using the computing device, the subsequences of codewords to form an encoded sequence by wherein the encoded sequence comprises a concatenation of the sets of phrases, and wherein the respective probability estimates associated with each of the other phrases are identified without dependence upon the subsequence of bins encoded as the codewords of the first of the phrases.
