Compression algorithms for speech, audio, still images, and video are quite complicated and, more importantly, nearly always lossy. Thus, samples often change dramatically once they’re decompressed.

The goal of digital compression algorithms is to produce a digital representation of an audio signal which, when decoded and reproduced, sounds the same as the original signal, while using a minimum ...

The “middle-out” algorithm that has its roots in the most infamous (and probably funniest) scene in HBO’s “Silicon Valley” may have been fictional, but something like it can be found in Lepton, a cool ...

ADCs and DACs are generating a flood of sampled data that are creating high-speed bottlenecks on busses and in networks. Part 1 of this article described the use of compression algorithms that take ...

This paper presents an optimized speech compression algorithm using discrete wavelet transform, and its real time implementation on fixed-point Digital Signal Processor (DSP). The optimized speech ...

The internet is saying Google Research developed Pied Piper. Anyone familiar with the popular HBO series, Silicon Valley, will know the fictional company in the show develops an industry-leading ...
