Video compression has become an essential technology to meet the burgeoning demand for high‐resolution content while maintaining manageable file sizes and transmission speeds. Recent advances in ...

MIT researchers could speed up file compression using an improved Fourier transform algorithm A group of MIT researchers believe they’ve found a way to speed up audio, video, and image ...

Google has released a new data compression algorithm it hopes will make the Internet faster for everyone. Dubbed Zopfli, the open-source algorithm will accelerate data transfer speeds and reduce ...

There are generic compression algorithms available, including Google’s open source Brotli. Lepton, written primarily in C++, is tuned to work with images, and it cuts off 22 percent of file size ...

An algorithm based on scale-specific quantization of biorthogonal wavelet coefficients was developed for the compression of high-resolution digitized mammograms.

Google's new open-source image compression algorithm promises to reduce JPEG file sizes by 35 percent more than other methods.

This compression may be lossless, such as in png files, or lossy, as in jpg files. Lossless photo compression works similarly to zip and rar compression: it packs data with a reversible algorithm.
