Abstract: Huffman decoding is crucial in data compression, and the self-synchronization-based parallel decoding algorithm enables subsequence-level parallelism. This paper introduces PHD, the first ...

Abstract: Most source coding standards (voice, audio, image and video) use Variable-Length Codes (VLCs) for compression. However, the VLC decoder is very sensitive to transmission errors in the ...
