There are two categories of data compression. The first reduces the size of a single file to save storage space and transmit faster. The second is for storage and transmission convenience. The JPEG ...

The CCSDS 122.0-B-1 specification is part of a standards suite developed by the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems. The CCSDS is formed by the major space agencies of the world for the ...

Images transmitted over the world wide web are an excellent example of why data compression is important. Suppose we need to download a digitized color photograph over a computer's 33.6 kbps modem. If ...

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 ...

Given the image on the left, two study participants made the reconstruction on the right. People preferred their reconstruction to the image at the center, a highly compressed version of the original ...

Large Language Models (LLMs), often recognized as AI systems trained on vast amounts of data to efficiently predict the next part of a word, are now being viewed from a different perspective. A recent ...

Finding efficient ways to compress and decompress data is more important than ever. Compressed data takes up less space and requires less time and network bandwidth to transfer. In cloud service code, ...

In image compression, a large file that could be cumbersome to store or share loses a small amount of visual information. This "lossiness" largely preserves the image while vastly reducing its file ...
