Abstract

We present the NML model for classes of models with memory described by first order dependencies. The model is used for efficiently locating and encoding the best regressor present in a dictionary. By combining the order-1 NML with the order- 0 NML model the resulting algorithm achieves a consistent improvement over the earlier order-0 NML algorithm, and it is demonstrated to have superior performance on the practical compression of the human genome.
