4. Data compression ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression_ratio

   Lossless compression of digitized data such as video, digitized film, and audio preserves all the information, but it does not generally achieve compression ratio much better than 2:1 because of the intrinsic entropy of the data. Compression algorithms which provide higher ratios either incur very large overheads or work only for specific data ...

5. Arithmetic coding - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic_coding

   When naively Huffman coding binary strings, no compression is possible, even if entropy is low (e.g. ({0, 1}) has probabilities {0.95, 0.05}). Huffman encoding assigns 1 bit to each value, resulting in a code of the same length as the input. By contrast, arithmetic coding compresses bits well, approaching the optimal compression ratio of

6. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

   The most widely used lossy compression algorithm is the discrete cosine transform (DCT), first published by Nasir Ahmed, T. Natarajan and K. R. Rao in 1974. Lossy compression is most commonly used to compress multimedia data (audio, video, and images), especially in applications such as streaming media and internet telephony. By contrast ...

7. zlib - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zlib

   zlib (/ ˈ z iː l ɪ b / or "zeta-lib", / ˈ z iː t ə ˌ l ɪ b /) [2] [3] is a software library used for data compression as well as a data format. [4] zlib was written by Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler and is an abstraction of the DEFLATE compression algorithm used in their gzip file compression program. zlib is also a crucial component of many software platforms, including Linux, macOS ...
