| Abstract | In this paper, we show that learning automata (LA) techniques, which have been useful in developing weak estimators, can be applied to data compression applications in which the data distributions are non-stationary. The adaptive coding scheme utilizes Stochastic Learningbased Weak Estimation (SLWE) techniques to adaptively update the probabilities of the source symbols, and this is done without resorting to either maximum likelihood, Bayesian or slidingwindow methods. We have incorporated our estimator in the adaptive Fano coding scheme, and an adaptive entropy-based scheme that "resembles" the well-known arithmetic coding. The empirical results obtained for both these adaptive methods are obtained on real-life files that possess a fair degree of non-stationarity. From these results we see that our schemes compress nearly 10% more than their respective adaptive methods which use the MLE-based estimates. |
