Type: Application Filed: June 25, 2004 Publication date: December 29, 2005 Inventors: Itschak Weissman, Erik Ordentlich, Gadiel Seroussi, Sergio Verdu, Marcelo Weinberger, Krishnamurthy Viswanathan Publication number: 20060047501 Abstract: Various embodiments of the present invention provide methods and systems for determining, representing, and using variable-length contexts in a variety of different computational applications.
The pruning method is selected, in one embodiment, to coalesce nodes, and, by doing so, to truncate the tree according to statistical considerations in order to produce a representation of a variably sized context model suitable for a particular application.
