Abstract

The redundancy of a universal data compression code is measured by the Kullback-Leibler distance between the unknown source and the model of the code. MDL (Minimum Description Length) code, introduced by J. Rissanen, achieves the redundancy rate of (k/2n) log n in encoding a sequence of lengh n from the source in a class of distributions described by k-dimensional parameters. It is sharpend by the studies on Bayes code.
