  • Abstract
    This paper considers the problem of universally coding stationary ergodic sources with countably infinite alphabet. Especially, we show a sufficient condition for both of Lempel-Ziv ´78 and ´77 (LZ78 and LZ77) coding algorithms to achieve asymptotically the entropy rate of those sources.
