Currently, the log is transmitted verbatim as part of the compressed output. That costs bits it doesn't need to cost. BITS-BACK CODING — THE FIX ---------------------------- Bits-back coding (Townsend et al. 2019, "Practical Lossless Compression with Latent Variables using Bits Back Coding") says: If you encode a latent variable z using a coding distribution q(z|x) rather than the true posterior p(z|x), you waste KL(q||p) bits per symbol. BUT — if you already have a prior p(z) and you use it to SAMPLE z rather than receive it, you get log₂(1/p(z)) bits back from the ANS stack for free. Applied here: z = the substitution log (which tokens were matched per domain) p(z) = the ISO prior — frequency distribution of each token in the real world x = the compressed text after substitution The ISO prior p(z) is NOT learned. It is the natural frequency of each term in its standard: - iso_chem: element/compound frequencies in scientific literature (IUPAC) - iso_geo: country/city mention frequencies (UN statistics, Wikipedia) - iso_unit: SI unit usage frequencies - iso_lang: language code frequencies (BCP 47 usage statistics) Since the ISO tables are PUBLIC STANDARDS shared between encoder and decoder, the prior is shared. Encoding the log against the prior costs only the SURPRISE (negative log probability) of each observed substitution — not the full token string. For common tokens ("United States", "oxygen", "hydrogen") the surprise is very small. For rare tokens ("Djibouti", "einsteinium") it costs more bits, which is exactly correct — rare matches ARE surprising. WHAT THIS MODULE DOES --------------------- 1. Builds a prior distribution for each ISO domain from empirical frequency tables (hardcoded from reference corpora — can be refined over time). 2. Encodes the substitution log as a compact bitstring using the prior: bits(token) = -log₂(p(token | domain)) 3. Decodes: given the domain bitmask and the encoded log, reconstructs the full substitution log so iso_symbol_table.decode() can reverse the prepass. 4. Stats: reports bits saved vs. naive UTF-8 log encoding. INTEGRATION POINT ----------------- # Current pipeline: compressed_text, log = iso_symbol_table.prepass(text) output = entropy_coder(compressed_text) + utf8_encode(log) # <-- wasteful # With bits-back: compressed_text, log = iso_symbol_table.prepass(text) log_bits = bits_back_iso.encode_log(log) # <-- cheap output = entropy_coder(compressed_text) + log_bits BENCHMARK TARGET ---------------- enwik8 baseline: 0.92% reduction, 924,727 bytes saved Expected additional saving from bits-back log encoding: 5-15% of log overhead (The log itself is ~0.3-0.8% of the original file size on enwik8.)
