Application of adaptive Golomb codes for lossless audio compression
Cezary Wernik, Grzegorz Ulacha · 2018
In this paper the advantages of the Golomb codes family on example of audio signals coding are presented. Such as low computational complexity, high efficiency and flexibility to adapt to local changes in the probability distribution characteristics of coded data. The effectiveness of the Golomb coder with forward adaptation with three versions of the reverse adaptation coder has been compared. Also, attempts have been made to solve the problem of incomplete adaptation to the distribution encoded audio data to a one-sided geometric distribution, for which the Golomb code is the optimal code.
