  • Patent number: 12253970
    Abstract: compression and search process on a data set based on multiple strategies, including: extracting a set of raw data and transforming it into a sequence of symbols, manipulating the sequence by combining data structures and one or more (optionally a multiplicity of) compression strategies to obtain compressed and efficiently searchable data, recording the compressed and efficiently searchable data on storage media.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8156156
    Abstract: A method of structuring and compressing labeled trees of arbitrary degree and shape for optimal succinctness, the method including a transform for compressing and indexing tree shaped data, using path sorting and grouping to linearize labeled tree shaped data into two coordinated arrays, one capturing the structure of the tree and the other capturing the labels of the tree. Additional navigational operations and basic searching may be performed on the transformed data.
