Abstract: Rissanen's Minimum Description Length (MDL) principle is a statistical modeling principle motivated by coding theory. For exponential families we obtain pathwise expansions, to the constant order, of the predictive and mixture code lengths used in MDL. The results are useful for understanding different MDL forms. Key words: minimum description length, mixture code, predictive code, two-stage code, law of iterated logarithm 1 (Update)
