摘要
In his classic paper of 1948, Claude Shannon considered the problem of efficiently describing a source that outputs a sequence of symbols, each associated with a probability of occurrence, and provided the theoretical limits of achievable performance. In 1951, David Huffman presented a technique that attains this performance. This article is a brief overview of some of their results.
