Abstract

The original version of this article unfortunately contained some mistakes in Table 5.The results in Table 5 have been revised due to a miscalculation resulting from a technical issue in the software.The data generated in binary format was tested using a.bin file; however, the characters interpreted through ASCII codes were not in true binary form but rather treated as if they were generated in 8-bit format for entropy tests.As a result, it was determined that the obtained results were incorrect.The data was retested in the correct binary format.The updated table now reflects the correct values.The changes in Table 5 do not alter the main conclusion.In the Discussion of Table 5: The commentary related to Table 5 has been updated to reflect the corrected results to read: "The expected entropy value for Markov sequences is 0.5155.It is observed that Markov, t-Tuple, Lag Prediction, MultiMMC Prediction, and LZ78Y Prediction estimates give accurate results for Markov sequences.Table 5 reveals that other estimators tend to
