  2. Stretched exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretched_exponential_function

    With β = 1, the usual exponential function is recovered. With a stretching exponent β between 0 and 1, the graph of log f versus t is characteristically stretched, hence the name of the function. The compressed exponential function (with β > 1) has less practical importance, with the notable exception of β = 2, which gives the normal ...

  3. Graph (abstract data type) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_(abstract_data_type)

    In computer science, a graph is an abstract data type that is meant to implement the undirected graph and directed graph concepts from the field of graph theory within mathematics. A graph data structure consists of a finite (and possibly mutable) set of vertices (also called nodes or points ), together with a set of unordered pairs of these ...

  4. 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:

  5. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

    Together with F, this makes 2 N +1 files that all compress into one of the 2 N files of length N. But 2 N is smaller than 2 N +1, so by the pigeonhole principle there must be some file of length N that is simultaneously the output of the compression function on two different inputs. That file cannot be decompressed reliably (which of the two ...

  6. LZ4 (compression algorithm) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LZ4_(compression_algorithm)

    The LZ4 algorithm aims to provide a good trade-off between speed and compression ratio. Typically, it has a smaller (i.e., worse) compression ratio than the similar LZO algorithm, which in turn is worse than algorithms like DEFLATE.

  7. Snappy (compression) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snappy_(compression)

    The copy refers to the dictionary (just-decompressed data). The offset is the shift from the current position back to the already decompressed stream. The length is the number of bytes to copy from the dictionary. The size of the dictionary was limited by the 1.0 Snappy compressor to 32,768 bytes, and updated to 65,536 in version 1.1. [citation ...

  8. Deflate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEFLATE

    Within compressed blocks, if a duplicate series of bytes is spotted (a repeated string), then a back-reference is inserted, linking to the previous location of that identical string instead. An encoded match to an earlier string consists of an 8-bit length (3–258 bytes) and a 15-bit distance (1–32,768 bytes) to the beginning of the duplicate.

  9. Girth (graph theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girth_(graph_theory)

    In graph theory, the girth of an undirected graph is the length of a shortest cycle contained in the graph. [1] If the graph does not contain any cycles (that is, it is a forest), its girth is defined to be infinity. [2] For example, a 4-cycle (square) has girth 4. A grid has girth 4 as well, and a triangular mesh has girth 3. A graph with ...
