  2. Data compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

    Data compression aims to reduce the size of data files, enhancing storage efficiency and speeding up data transmission. K-means clustering, an unsupervised machine learning algorithm, is employed to partition a dataset into a specified number of clusters, k, each represented by the centroid of its points.

  3. Data compression ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression_ratio

    Lossless compression of digitized data such as video, digitized film, and audio preserves all the information, but it does not generally achieve compression ratio much better than 2:1 because of the intrinsic entropy of the data. Compression algorithms which provide higher ratios either incur very large overheads or work only for specific data ...

  4. HTTP compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTTP_compression

    HTTP compression is a capability that can be built into web servers and web clients to improve transfer speed and bandwidth utilization. [1]HTTP data is compressed before it is sent from the server: compliant browsers will announce what methods are supported to the server before downloading the correct format; browsers that do not support compliant compression method will download uncompressed ...

  5. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

    Lossless compression is a class of data compression that allows the original data to be perfectly reconstructed from the compressed data with no loss of information. Lossless compression is possible because most real-world data exhibits statistical redundancy . [ 1 ]

  6. OSI model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

    The presentation layer handles protocol conversion, data encryption, data decryption, data compression, data decompression, incompatibility of data representation between operating systems, and graphic commands. The presentation layer transforms data into the form that the application layer accepts, to be sent across a network.

  7. Network throughput - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_throughput

    In a network simulation model with infinite packet queues, the asymptotic throughput occurs when the latency (the packet queuing time) goes to infinity, while if the packet queues are limited, or the network is a multi-drop network with many sources, and collisions may occur, the packet-dropping rate approaches 100%.

  8. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

    While data reduction (compression, be it lossy or lossless) is a main goal of transform coding, it also allows other goals: one may represent data more accurately for the original amount of space [5] – for example, in principle, if one starts with an analog or high-resolution digital master, an MP3 file of a given size should provide a better ...

  9. Bandwidth (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_(computing)

    The most widely used data compression technique for media bandwidth reduction is the discrete cosine transform (DCT), which was first proposed by Nasir Ahmed in the early 1970s. [8] DCT compression significantly reduces the amount of memory and bandwidth required for digital signals, capable of achieving a data compression ratio of up to 100:1 ...
