Image compression is an essential technique for efficient transmission and storage of images. The demands for transmission and storage of multimedia data are increasing exponentially. A gray scale ...

Images transmitted over the world wide web are an excellent example of why data compression is important. Suppose we need to download a digitized color photograph over a computer's 33.6 kbps modem. If ...

In creating an entirely new way to compress data, a team of researchers has drawn inspiration from physics and the arts. The result is a new data compression method that outperforms existing ...

The Guetzli project shows there's room to improve the venerable compression tech. Too bad Google's software is slow and not so practical for most sites right now. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from ...

Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG), a committee that maintains various JPEG image-related standards, has started exploring a way to involve AI to build a new compression standard. In a recent ...

In image compression, a large file that could be cumbersome to store or share loses a small amount of visual information. This "lossiness" largely preserves the image while vastly reducing its file ...

Imagine working with special cameras that capture light your eyes can’t even see—ultraviolet rays that cause sunburn or infrared heat signatures that reveal hidden writing. Or perhaps using ...

First core to bring hardware JPEG XL to consumer and pro cameras: 4K/8K, better quality/byte, small silicon footprint, easy integration. Woodcliff Lake, NJ — Semiconductor IP provider CAST today ...

Displays delivering quad HD or 4K resolutions at faster frame rates and support for RGB formats are becoming prevalent in high-end smartphones, automotive infotainment systems, and mixed reality ...
