Method, apparatus, and system for source coding with iterative side information generation and decoding process

A method of decoding data with decoder-only side information comprising:

• generating side information using at least reconstructed source data adjacent to source data being decoded;
• decoding the source data using the generated side information to reconstruct the source data;
• using at least the reconstructed source data from the previous decoding step to generate new side information;
• decoding using the new side information to generate updated source data;
• and
• repeating the steps of using at least the reconstructed source data, and decoding using the new side information until one or more predetermined criteria is met.

A program storage device readable by machine, tangibly embodying a program of instructions executable by the machine to perform a method of decompressing for a data-compression system with decoder-only side information comprising:

• generating side information using a source reconstruction;
• decoding using the generated side information to generate a new source reconstruction;
• and
• iterating the steps of generating and decoding, the generating step using at least the new source reconstruction output by the previous decoding step, and the decoding step using the side information generated by the previous generating step;
• and
• stopping the iteration when one or more predetermined criteria are met.
