It used to be that memory and storage space were so precious and so limited of a resource that handling nontrivial amounts of text was a serious problem. Text compression was a highly practical ...

Innovative compression algorithms can improve today�s high-speed data sampling. Compression algorithms have enabled many popular applications over the years. We cannot imagine sending e-mail ...

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 ...

Compression is the science of making data representations smaller, in order to decrease the data's bandwidth and storage requirements. Compression applications are everywhere: in computers (WinZip and ...

Apple did its part in moving the world to wireless headphones. With the removal of the headphone jack with iPhone 7, the company made it clear that the future of audio is wireless. However, the ...

If double-digit compression is your goal, lossy codecs are the only way to go. Even if lossy compression artifacts exist, they might be inaudible. Song clips of similar duration from different music ...
