Data Compression and Language Modeling: A Predictive Relationship
The article explains that data compression and language models both rely on probability distributions to predict and reduce data redundancy, using techniques like entropy coding and arithmetic coding to illustrate this connection. It highlights how compression algorithms function as predictive models by encoding data based on symbol frequencies and probabilities.
