Abstract :
This paper presents the first algorithm for linear time encoding/decoding of a twice-universal code in class of tree models. The implemented code is a two-pass (semi-predictive) version of context. The algorithmic tools employed in its derivation and their information-theoretic implications is also investigated. The FSM closure of a generalised context tree, defined as the smallest finite-state machine is characterised.
