Abstract
The present invention relates to a method, computer program product and system for the compression of a probability table and the reconstruction of one or more probability elements using the compressed data and method. After determining a probability table that is to be compressed, the probability table is compressed using a first probability table compression method, wherein the probability table compression method creates a first compressed probability table. The first compressed probability table contains a plurality of probability elements. Further, the probability table is compressed using a second probability table compression method, wherein the probability table compression method creates a second compressed probability table. The second compressed probability table containing a plurality of probability elements. A first probability element reconstructed using the first compressed probability table is thereafter merged with a second probability element reconstructed using the second compressed probability table in order to produce a merged probability element.
