Data compression continues to evolve, with traditional information theory methods being widely used for compressing text, images, and videos. Recently, there has been growing interest in leveraging Generative AI for predictive compression techniques. This paper introduces a lossless text compression approach using a Large Language Model (LLM). The method involves two key steps: first, prediction using a dense neural network architecture, such as a transformer block; second, compressing the predicted ranks with standard compression algorithms like Adaptive Huffman, LZ77, or Gzip. Extensive analysis and benchmarking against conventional information-theoretic baselines demonstrate that neural compression offers improved performance.

LLM-based Source Code Compression via Thresholded Symbol Ranking
Bounding LLM next-token ranks to T=63 (or T=1) with escaped exceptions beats unbounded LLM ranking by up to 37% ratio and 40% speed on source code, and beats general-purpose compressors by up to 82% ratio.

Separate Source Channel Coding Is Still What You Need: An LLM-based Rethinking
LLM-based arithmetic coding plus ECCT-enhanced LDPC decoding makes separate source and channel coding competitive with, and in these tests superior to, joint source-channel coding for text under a total-energy comparison.
