Abstract: We propose a new algorithm for the compression factor control (CF-CTRL) when the JPEG compression algorithm is used. It can be used, for example, in the digital still cameras (DSCs), where a ...

Image compression, once the domain of the PC, is becoming pervasive in embedded environments. This trend is largely a result of the increased processing power and multimedia capabilities of new DSPs.

Google has come up with a brand-new image compression algorithm it devised, the purpose of which is to reduce file size of JPEGs by 35 percent, without any noticeable or significant dips in image ...

Google claims that its new Guetzli software can produce JPEG files up to 35% than other available methods -- but our tests find only limited support for that claim. Share on Facebook (opens in a new ...

This project presents an advanced image compression system designed to enhance the standard JPEG algorithm by introducing a more perceptually-driven approach. The traditional JPEG standard relies on a ...

For obvious reasons, Google has a vested interest in reducing the time it takes to load websites and services. One method is reducing the file size of images on the internet, which they previously ...

Compression is the art of removing redundant or duplicate information from a file or a set of bytes in such a way that the original content can be reconstituted (decompressed) at a later stage. The ...

In 2012, the photograph of Barack and Michelle Obama embracing after his re-election was 'liked' over 4 million times. That photo, like the 250 million other images uploaded to Facebook every day is ...

A team of engineers at Dropbox’s Hack Week re-created the fictional compression schema from HBO’s Silicon Valley. You would be forgiven for thinking that the elevator pitch for Daniel Reiter Horn’s ...
