Abstract
Techniques and apparatuses to decompress data that has been stack compressed is described. Stack compression refers to compression of data in one or more dimensions. For uncompressed data blocks that are very sparse, i.e., data blocks that contain many zeros, stack compression can be effective. In stack compression, uncompressed data block is compressed into compressed data block by removing one or more zero words from the uncompressed data block. A map metadata that maps the zero words of the uncompressed data block is generated during compression. With the use of the map metadata, the compressed data block can be decompressed to restore the uncompressed data block.
