We propose a scheme for compressing tree structured data which uses a
hardcoded pushdown hedge automata. Our algorithm is a lossless adaptive
algorithm where the hardcoded model is used in conjunction with an
arithmetic compressor to produce a compressed version of the tree. The
structure of the model mirrors the syntactic specification of the tree
structure. A quantitative analysis of the advantages that accrue from such
a model is provided.
