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 ...

The ubiquitous JPEG looks like it will be getting a major feature boost in the not too distant future. The Independent JPEG Group at the Leipzig Institute for Applied Informatics has released version ...

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 ...

Gaming Industry Todd Howard says AI can't replace human 'creative intention,' but it's part of Bethesda's 'toolset for how we build our worlds or check things' AI Rockstar co-founder compares AI to ...

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 ...

This week at NAB Show in Las Vegas, the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG), the international committee behind the titular image compression standard, unveiled JPEG XS, a new format that is ...

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 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.
