✦ Synopsis
We present a proposal for representing large vectors of real numbers using binary decision diagrams (BDDs). If the vectors contain structured data, the necessary size may be reduced significantly compared to an explicit representation of the numbers. We are able to prove a nontrivial upper bound for this size for a rather theoretical example: tables approximating linear functions.
