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 ...

As mentioned previously, the characteristics of typical audio signals vary from time to time and therefore we must expect the required bit rate for lossless compression to vary as well. Since the bit ...

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 described ...

Today, Facebook is releasing its Zstandard compression algorithm into the wild as open source. The lossless compression technology is aimed at replacing existing libraries like zlib that are powered ...

Finally, while lossless compression algorithms such as WinZIP, bzip, and PKzip are appropriate for byte-oriented character strings, such as those found in text documents and some spreadsheets, they ...

A process is used when music is compressed into MP3 to discard all the sounds a machine thinks the human ear can't audibly perceive, thus vastly reducing the amount of storage needed to hold entire ...

Data Compression is one of the most important components of this world, driven by petabytes of data daily. We, as humans, are generating data every second. From walking to running, eating to drinking, ...

Suffix arrays serve as a fundamental tool in string processing by indexing all suffixes of a text in lexicographical order, thereby facilitating fast pattern searches, text retrieval, and genome ...

Common audio data formats such as the Compact Disc generally store a two-channel (stereo) audio signal. The left and fight channel data streams are stored entirely independently. Various new data ...
