2. Data compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

   Data compression. In information theory, data compression, source coding, [1] or bit-rate reduction is the process of encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation. [2] Any particular compression is either lossy or lossless. Lossless compression reduces bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy.

3. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

   Lossless compression is a class of data compression that allows the original data to be perfectly reconstructed from the compressed data with no loss of information. Lossless compression is possible because most real-world data exhibits statistical redundancy. [1] By contrast, lossy compression permits reconstruction only of an approximation of ...

4. Comparison of video codecs - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_video_codecs

   Α video codec is software or a device that provides encoding and decoding for digital video, and which may or may not include the use of video compression and/or decompression. Most codecs are typically implementations of video coding formats. The compression may employ lossy data compression, so that quality-measurement issues become important.

5. Lagarith - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagarith

   Lagarith is an open source lossless video codec written by Ben Greenwood. [1] It is a fork of the code of HuffYUV and offers better compression at the cost of greatly reduced speed on uniprocessor systems. [2][3] Lagarith was designed and written with a few aims in mind: While not as fast as HuffYUV, it still outperforms most other lossless ...

6. Video coding format - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Video_coding_format

   Video coding format. A video coding format[a] (or sometimes video compression format) is a content representation format of digital video content, such as in a data file or bitstream. It typically uses a standardized video compression algorithm, most commonly based on discrete cosine transform (DCT) coding and motion compensation.

7. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

   In information technology, lossy compression or irreversible compression is the class of data compression methods that uses inexact approximations and partial data discarding to represent the content. These techniques are used to reduce data size for storing, handling, and transmitting content. Higher degrees of approximation create coarser ...
