File compression is an incredible technological breakthrough that has made modern computing, streaming, and data storage ...

Audio codecs for compression come in two forms: Lossy, where some of the original data is lost in the process, and Lossless, where all the data is recovered when it is decompressed.

However, lossless compression ratios fall between 1.3:1 and 2:1 on baseband signals. As with all lossless algorithms of this type, the amount of compression varies with the information content of ...

Lossless data compression plays a vital role in addressing the growth in data volumes, real-time processing demands, and bandwidth constraints that modern systems face. Dr. Sotiropoulou will deliver ...

Commentary Nervous System: How Lossless Compression Makes Information Skinnier When is a byte not a byte? This month's history of cybersecurity examines the work of data scientists Jacob Ziv and ...

In lossless compression algorithms that utilize IIR predictors it is common to have multiple sets of fixed coefficients from which the encoder chooses the set that provides the best results (minimum ...

Over the past few years there has been a remarkable progress in the quality of display devices, with 4K displays becoming the norm, and 8K and 10K displays following closely. However, this increase in ...

CPU-intensive compression algorithms can no longer scale to meet next-generation requirements. Plus, as more and more content is served up dynamically, the CPU load increases significantly.

Compression is front and center at Facebook’s annual @Scale conference in San Jose. The social networking giant open-sourced a homegrown algorithm called Zstandard at the event today that is ...

OVERVIEW Lossless data compression of digital audio signals is useful when it is necessary to minimize the storage space or transmission bandwidth of audio data while still maintaining archival ...
