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 ...

"I began experimenting with file-compression algorithms to see if we could shrink files to the point where they could be sent over standard phone lines," he said.

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 ...

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 British startup says it has achieved a breakthrough in data compression with a new tool which it claims can deliver up to 65% lossless file reduction.

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

Windows NTFS file system can compress your file system using the built-in compact.exe tool. Use CompactGUI to compress installed software & applications and save Disk Space.

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.

Microsoft is making major changes to how SMB compression operates in Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022. The enhancements will particularly interest IT admins and users in client-server environments.
