The disclosure is directed at a method of data compression. The method includes creating a set of single composite data structures and then calculating a set of bit probabilities based on the set of single data structures. The bit probabilities are then used to create a set of intermediate buffers which are then sorted and traversed for data compression.

Methods and devices for handling equiprobable symbols in entropy coding

Methods of encoding and decoding data in which some data symbols are entropy coded and some data symbols are bypass coded. The encoder separates the coded symbols into an entropy coded stream and a bypass coded stream. The streams are packaged in a data unit that has a payload structured to contain one of the streams in forward order and the other stream in reverse order, with the reverse order stream aligned with the end of the data unit. In this manner, at the decoder, the decoder may begin decoding the forward order stream from its beginning and may also begin decoding the reverse order stream from its beginning at the end of the data unit by extracting symbols in reverse order. The data unit does not need to signal the length of the streams. The decoder determines the length of the data unit from explicit or implicit signaling.
