Data compression has emerged as a vital tool for managing the ever‐increasing volumes of data produced by contemporary scientific research. Techniques in this field aim to reduce storage requirements ...

In this podcast, Franck Cappello from Argonne describes EZ, an effort to effort to compress and reduce the enormous scientific data sets that some of the ECP applications are producing. The current ...

Image compression is an essential technique for efficient transmission and storage of images. The demands for transmission and storage of multimedia data are increasing exponentially. A gray scale ...

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, ...

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.

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 ...

Today, we’re going to talk about lossless compression. So last episode we talked about some basic file formats, but what we didn’t talk about is compression. Often files are way too large to be easily ...

A team of researchers at ETH Zurich are working on a novel approach to solving increasingly large graph problems. Large graphs are a basis of many problems in social sciences (e.g., studying human ...

With the introduction of Qualcomm’s aptX Lossless technology, Bluetooth headphone customers will finally join their wired audiophile brethren with the option to listen to lossless quality audio. The ...

Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal compression techniques are essential for the efficient storage, transmission and real‐time processing of cardiac data. Advanced methods utilising discrete wavelet ...
