Adaptive Huffman Coding<br />

} Problem<br />

- previous algorithm requires statistical knowledge (the probability<br />

distribution), often not available (e.g. live audio, video)<br />

- even when statistical knowledge is available, it could be too much<br />

overhead to send it<br />

} Solution<br />

- use of adaptive algorithms<br />

- here: Adaptive Huffman Coding<br />

- keeps up estimating the required probability distribution from<br />

previously encoded/decoded symbols by an update procedure<br />
