arithmetic coding
A statistical data compression method that converts strings of data into single floating point numbers between 0 and 1.
arithmetic coding [¦a·rith¦med·ik ′cōd·iŋ]
(communications)
A method of data compression in which a long character string is represented by a single number whose value is obtained by repeatedly partitioning the range of possible values in proportion to the probabilities of the characters.

[11] uses grammar codes in that the original image is first transformed into a context free grammar from which the original data sequence can be fully reconstructed by performing parallel and recursive substitutions and then using an arithmetic coding algorithm to compress the context free grammar.
In this paper, we present a hyperspectral image lossy-to-lossless compression method based on the 3D SPEZBC algorithm, which adopts the Xiong's 3D integer wavelet packet transform (3D integer WPT) to decorrelate, the set-based quadtree partitioning zeroblock technique to process bitplane coding and the context-based adaptive arithmetic coding for further entropy coding.
