Compression scheme for floating point values

Abstract:

Some embodiments provide a non-transitory machine-readable medium that stores a program. The program determines a scale value based on a plurality of floating point values. The program further scales the plurality of floating point values based on the scale value. The program also converts the plurality of floating point values to a plurality of integer values. The program further determines an integer encoding scheme from a plurality of integer encoding schemes. The program also encodes the plurality of integer values based on the determined integer encoding scheme.
