Abstract :
The separation of source coding into two stages, modeling and encoding, is a highly successful approach. We propose meta-modeling as an additional stage. As an application, we use this paradigm to deduce an efficient and optimal algorithm for a novel and powerful model set: the classification tree sources. Our results on classification tree sources unify and generalize prior results for tree sources. Moreover, we point out applications in text and image compression.
