Note

  • Methods for text compression identify and exploit redundancy in text documents in order to obtain a more condensed representation of the information, from which the original data can be recovered without modification (lossless compression). In theory, there is a close relation between compression and prediction: The better a statistical language model can estimate the probability of a word, given some context, the more the text as a whole can be compressed.
