System and method for compressing a stream of integer-valued data

A method and system are provided to minimize the size and complexity of bitstreams associated with encoded data by using a new compression scheme. An entropy encoder receives a list of run/data value pairs and entropy encodes separately the runs and data values, selecting their codewords according t...

Zusammenfassung:A method and system are provided to minimize the size and complexity of bitstreams associated with encoded data by using a new compression scheme. An entropy encoder receives a list of run/data value pairs and entropy encodes separately the runs and data values, selecting their codewords according to length and magnitude, respectively, and catenates the resulting codeword pairs - run codeword first - in an encoded bitstream.
