Static Modelling

Tags
text-processing

An approach to building models for text compression where you already have a model before you start compressing. For example having the top 1000 most common words alongside short keys for them.

Note: canonical Huffman codes are good for static/semi-static models.

Semi-Static-Modelling

Is an alternative to static modelling where you use 2 passes. One to build a model and then another to apply it whilst compressing text.
