A Space-Optimal Grammar Compression

Authors: Yoshimasa Takabatake, Tomohiro I, and Hiroshi Sakamoto

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 87, 25th Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2017)


Abstract
A grammar compression is a context-free grammar (CFG) deriving a single string deterministically. For an input string of length N over an alphabet of size sigma, the smallest CFG is O(log N)-approximable in the offline setting and O(log N log^* N)-approximable in the online setting. In addition, an information-theoretic lower bound for representing a CFG in Chomsky normal form of n variables is log (n!/n^sigma) + n + o(n) bits. Although there is an online grammar compression algorithm that directly computes the succinct encoding of its output CFG with O(log N log^* N) approximation guarantee, the problem of optimizing its working space has remained open. We propose a fully-online algorithm that requires the fewest bits of working space asymptotically equal to the lower bound in O(N log log n) compression time. In addition we propose several techniques to boost grammar compression and show their efficiency by computational experiments.

A Space-Saving Approximation Algorithm for Grammar-Based Compression

Authors: Hiroshi Sakamoto

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 8261, Structure-Based Compression of Complex Massive Data (2008)


Abstract
A space-efficient approximation algorithm for the grammar-based compression problem, which requests for a given string to find a smallest context-free grammar deriving the string, is presented. For the input length n and an optimum CFG size g, the algorithm consumes only O(g log g) space and O(n log^n) time to achieve O((log^n) log n) approximation ratio to the optimum compression, where log^n is the maximum number of logarithms satisfying log log · · · logn > 1. This ratio is thus regarded to almost O(log n), which is the currently best approximation ratio. While g depends on the string, it is known that g =(log n) and g=O(n/log_k n) for strings from a k-letter alphabet [12].
