Systems and techniques are provided for compressing data. A process can include generating a compressed sub-packet by removing one or more sparsity bytes from a sequence of values corresponding to a sub-packet, the sequence of values including one or more sparsity bytes each equal to a configured sparsity value and one or more non-sparsity bytes each corresponding to a respective data value different from the configured sparsity value. A sub-packet header can be generated for the compressed sub-packet, and indicative of a respective location within the sequence of values of each non-sparsity byte. A packet header can be generated for a plurality of compressed sub-packets, and indicative of the configured sparsity value and respective coding information for each compressed sub-packet. A compressed data packet can be generated to include at least the packet header, the sub-packet header, and the one or more non-sparsity bytes included in the sequence of values.
