Entropy Coder / Entropy Coding Benchmark
Only the most efficient, fast or popular entropy coders are tested. 2 practical uniform and skewed distributions like that found in lz77, bwt, image and video compression.
- ANS : Asymmetric Numeral Systems All the following ANS entropy coders are block based : each block is encoded separately using the statistics from this block only
- TurboANX in LzTurbo v1.2 (JIT scalar/sse/avx2) - World's fastest and most efficient entropy coder. Automatic JIT switching between Scalar/SSE/AVX2. All modes 32/64 bits scalar, SSE and AVX2 are binary compatible.
TurboANX optimal = Shortest path driven optimal partitioning (Variable length blocks).
- TurboANXX order o1 context - order o1 context entropy coder
- rANS interleaved v14.02 - Range Asymmetric Nummeral System
- FSC Finite State Coder v15.04
- Table Asymmetric Numeral Systems
- FSE Finite State Entropy v18.04
- Table Asymmetric Numeral Systems
- rANS Static v18.04
- Range Asymmetric Numeral Systems

References:
- Huffman Coding
- TurboHF from LzTurbo v1.1 - Block based Huffman Coding. Decoding one Billion Symbols per second. TurboHF optimal = variable length block partitioning
- FSEHUF Huffman Coding v18.05 - Block based Huffman Coding
- FastHF - quasi-adaptive Huffman Coding
- FPC - Fast Prefix Coder - Block based Huffman Coding.
- Polar Tree - Non-Huffman binary tree
- Tornado v0.6 - semi-adaptive Huffman Coder
- zlibh - Huffman Coding
*quasi-adaptive = semi-adaptive model with "periodic rescale" or "deferred summation".
The benchmark shows that block based coders are more efficient
