            Abstract : 
An “estimation-like” algorithm of sequential universal coding of sources with unknown model is proposed. It is shown that for the set of all context tree models, with restricted depths of contexts, the maximal individual redundancy of such coding decreases not slower than O(√((logn)/n)), n→∞, where n is the message length
