You would be forgiven for thinking that the elevator pitch for Daniel Reiter Horn’s latest project sounds familiar. That’s because there’s a good chance you saw it on HBO. In fact, everything about ...

A group of MIT researchers believe they’ve found a way to speed up audio, video, and image compression by improving on the Fourier Transform. They say the new algorithm is up to ten times faster than ...

CompressionX promises better compression and greener storage, but locks core features behind a monthly fee Claims of smart algorithms and 65% compression remain unverified and need independent testing ...

Effective compression is about finding patterns to make data smaller without losing information. When an algorithm or model can accurately guess the next piece of data in a sequence, it shows it’s ...

Spell checking is such a ubiquitous feature of today's software that we expect to see it in browsers and basic text editors, and on just about every computing device. However, 50 years ago, it was a ...

I see awful diminishing returns here. (Lossless) compression of today isn't really that much better than products from the 80s and early 90s - stacker (wasn't it?), pkzip, tar, gz. You get maybe a few ...
