  2. MP3 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MP3

    MP3 (or mp3) as a file format commonly designates files containing an elementary stream of MPEG-1 Audio or MPEG-2 Audio encoded data, without other complexities of the MP3 standard. Concerning audio compression (the aspect of the standard most apparent to end-users and for which it is best known), MP3 uses lossy compression to encode data using ...

  3. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

    While data reduction (compression, be it lossy or lossless) is a main goal of transform coding, it also allows other goals: one may represent data more accurately for the original amount of space [5] – for example, in principle, if one starts with an analog or high-resolution digital master, an MP3 file of a given size should provide a better ...

  4. Audio file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_file_format

    Audio file format. An audio file format is a file format for storing digital audio data on a computer system. The bit layout of the audio data (excluding metadata) is called the audio coding format and can be uncompressed, or compressed to reduce the file size, often using lossy compression. The data can be a raw bitstream in an audio coding ...

  5. Data compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

    Data compression aims to reduce the size of data files, enhancing storage efficiency and speeding up data transmission. K-means clustering, an unsupervised machine learning algorithm, is employed to partition a dataset into a specified number of clusters, k, each represented by the centroid of its points. This process condenses extensive ...

  6. Audio coding format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_coding_format

    Audio coding format. An audio coding format [1] (or sometimes audio compression format) is a content representation format for storage or transmission of digital audio (such as in digital television, digital radio and in audio and video files). Examples of audio coding formats include MP3, AAC, Vorbis, FLAC, and Opus.

  7. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

    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 ...

  8. Data compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression_ratio

    Thus, a representation that compresses the storage size of a file from 10 MB to 2 MB yields a space saving of 1 - 2/10 = 0.8, often notated as a percentage, 80%. For signals of indefinite size, such as streaming audio and video, the compression ratio is defined in terms of uncompressed and compressed data rates instead of data sizes:

  9. Compressed audio optical disc - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_audio_optical_disc

    A compressed audio optical disc, MP3 CD, or MP3 CD-ROM or MP3 DVD is an optical disc (usually a CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R or DVD-RW) that contains digital audio in the MP3 file format. Discs are written in the "Yellow Book" standard data format (used for CD-ROMs and DVD-ROMs ), as opposed to the Red Book standard audio format (used for CD-DA audio CDs).
