Abstract

An approximation formula for the predictive Bayes code for the FSMX models, subspaces of Markov models, is presented. It is empirically shown that the code using the approximation formula along with the Jeffreys prior (Clark et al, 1994) gives shorter code length than the one using the Laplace estimator for the first order Markov models. It is also shown that there is difficulty in introducing the formula to CONTEXT or CTW methods.
