[Dominic Szablewski] was tinkering around with compressing RGB images, when he stumbled upon idea of how to make a simple lossless compression algorithm, resulting in the Quite OK Image Format, which ...

People store large quantities of data in their electronic devices and transfer some of this data to others, whether for professional or personal reasons. Data compression methods are thus of the ...

A new study in Multimedia Tools and Applications presents two hybrid image compression schemes, HLL1 and HLL2, that combine ...

Data compression is a fundamental technology that enables efficient storage and transmission of information. However, traditional compression methods are approaching their theoretical limits after 80 ...

The word ‘lossless’ sounds like it describes audio with no compression used. But lossless audio compression is a thing. Here’s a quick primer. Lossless audio formats use compression algorithms to ...

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 ...

For storage and transmission of large image files it is desirable to reduce the file size. For consumer-grade images this is achieved by lossy image compression when image details not very noticeable ...

Lossless audio makes your music sound its best, but there are downsides. Here's what to know about the data, storage, and ...

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 ...
