A. Lowest frequency of characters
Huffman code is a data compression algorithm which uses the greedy technique for its implementation. The algorithm is based on the frequency of the characters appearing in a file. The characters with lowest frequest are chosen and linked together as children of a common parent symbol. This method is repeated till a huffman tree is generated. Refer the image below to understand how the tree is created.
In the image above we get a path for each character. The low the frequency of that character, longer is the path/code for it. For eg: a has the highest frequency so the smallest code.
a = 0
b = 101
c = 100
d = 111
e = 1101
f = 1100

(a) Create a Huffman code for the following string (whitespace inserted for clarity): AAA BB CCCCC CCCCC DD EEE (b) How many bits does your code use to encode the above string? (c) Huffman codes are always optimal prefix codes, and there are many different ways one can build a Huffman code from the same set of character frequencies (e.g. by swapping the left and right subtrees at any iteration). Give an example of an optimal prefix code for this...
For this assignment, you will write a program to work with Huffman encoding. Huffman code is an optimal prefix code, which means no code is the prefix of another code. Most of the code is included. You will need to extend the code to complete three additional methods. In particular, code to actually build the Huffman tree is provided. It uses a data file containing the frequency of occurrence of characters. You will write the following three methods in the...
The following message is to be transmitted using Huffman coding: ISTHISHISTORYORISTHISHISTESTTHESIS a) Determine a Huffman code tree for this message. b) What are the corresponding code words for each character? c) What is the efficiency of this encoding compared to the uncompressed data? [Assume that the uncompressed characters are transmitted using the minimum number of bits needed to code all of the characters of the message.] d)What would be the decoded message if the following bit stream was sent using...
Question 1. What is the optimal Huffman code for the following set of characters frequencies? a:1 b:1 c:2 d:3 e:5 f:8 g:13 h:21
Write a C++ program which makes a binary tree that generates the Huffman code for any 7 characters and their given frequencies. As test input use a 3, b 4, c 1, d 3, e 12, f 4, g 2. Your program must insert nodes, and output the code for each character. Note: your program should be able to take any 7 characters and their frequencies as input. Three extra points if your program can accept 26 letters and 10...
There is no known Greedy strategy that is optimal for solving the 0/1 Knapsack problem. For each of the following strategies give a counterexample, i.e. descibe an instance where that strategy will fail to produce an optimal result. (a) Lightest item first. (b)Most valuable item first. (c)Item with the best value to weight ratio first.

I have almost done with this code to Implement Huffman Coding. However I have an error at the "Heap<Tree>". Could anyone help with solving this issue, really appreciated. Thank you!! import java.util.Scanner; public class HuffmanEncoding { public static void main(String[] args) { Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); System.out.print("Enter a text: "); String text = input.nextLine(); int[] counts = getCharacterFrequency(text); // Count frequency System.out.printf("%-15s%-15s%-15s%-15s\n", "ASCII Code", "Character", "Frequency", "Code"); Tree tree = getHuffmanTree(counts); // Create a Huffman tree String[]...
Write a frequency list for A, B,C, D, E, F such that the unique Huffman code for these fre- quencies would correspond to the following tree: B C Write a frequency list for A, B,C, D, E, F such that the unique Huffman code for these fre- quencies would correspond to the following tree: B C
Problem (A1) (20 points): Huffman Coding Consider a message having the 5 symbols (A,B,C,D,E) with probabilities (0.1,0.1,0.2 ,0.2, 0.4), respectively. For such data, two different sets of Huffman codes can result from a different tie breaking during the construction of the Huffman trees. • Construct the two Huffman trees. (8 points) Construct the Huffman codes for the given symbols for each tree. (4 points) Show that both trees will produce the same average code length. (4 points) For data transmission...
