Google’s TurboQuant has the internet joking about Pied Piper from HBO's "Silicon Valley." The compression algorithm promises ...

Compression algorithms for speech, audio, still images, and video are quite complicated and, more importantly, nearly always lossy. Thus, samples often change dramatically once they’re decompressed.

This paper discusses the hardware implementation of an encoder and a decoder for the QOI lossless RGB image format. Some results are given for the AMD/Xilinx architecture, reaching over 800 Mpixels/s ...

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 quality.

Part 2 benchmarks the compression algorithms. It will be published July 20. Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) are generating a huge and rapidly growing flood ...

Effective compression is about finding patterns to make data smaller without losing information. When an algorithm or model can accurately guess the next piece of data in a sequence, it shows it’s ...

Brother and sister team Peter Ma and Nancy Ghaly presented Piper Pied, a lossless compression algorithm for online images, at the Disrupt NY Hackathon today. The startup is a “creative spin” on Pied ...

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 ...

Music streaming and image / video transfer are technologies that are indispensable in modern society, but in order to use these technologies, it is indispensable to 'compress a huge file size to a ...
