  2. Stretched exponential function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stretched_exponential_function

    The compressed exponential function (with β > 1) has less practical importance, with the notable exceptions of β = 2, which gives the normal distribution, and of compressed exponential relaxation in the dynamics of amorphous solids. [1] In mathematics, the stretched exponential is also known as the complementary cumulative Weibull distribution.

  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. Brotli - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brotli

    Brotli's new file format allows its authors to improve upon Deflate by several algorithmic and format-level improvements: the use of context models for literals and copy distances, describing copy distances through past distances, use of move-to-front queue in entropy code selection, joint-entropy coding of literal and copy lengths, the use of graph algorithms in block splitting, and a larger ...

  5. 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:

  6. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

    In fact, if we consider files of length N, if all files were equally probable, then for any lossless compression that reduces the size of some file, the expected length of a compressed file (averaged over all possible files of length N) must necessarily be greater than N. [citation needed] So if we know nothing about the properties of the data ...

  7. Run-length encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-length_encoding

    Even binary data files can be compressed with this method; file format specifications often dictate repeated bytes in files as padding space. However, newer compression methods such as DEFLATE often use LZ77 -based algorithms, a generalization of run-length encoding that can take advantage of runs of strings of characters (such as BWWBWWBWWBWW ).

  8. Dominator (graph theory) - Wikipedia

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

    Corresponding dominator tree of the control flow graph. In computer science, a node d of a control-flow graph dominates a node n if every path from the entry node to n must go through d. Notationally, this is written as d dom n (or sometimes d ≫ n). By definition, every node dominates itself. There are a number of related concepts:

  9. 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.
