Abstract
In the era of Big Data, the volume of data grows rapidly, and compression is becoming an increasingly important issue. Information theory, in particular, approaches this problem mathematically to find optimum compression algorithms. Such works often focus more on optimality of compression rate but tacitly ignore the complexity of algorithms. On the other hand, in the real world, various compression algorithms are developed for each different application. These algorithms provide low complexity but cannot guarantee the optimum compression rate. In this work, we try to achieve both the low complexity and optimality of the rate. More precisely, a new technique using successive refinement is proposed to reduce the complexity of algorithms that achieve the optimum compression rate.
