Data Compression: Presented by Pankaj Sharma

Data compression techniques allow for reducing the size of data files. There are lossless techniques like run-length encoding and Huffman encoding as well as lossy techniques like JPEG and MPEG. Run-length encoding replaces runs of repeating values with flags and counters, while Huffman encoding assigns shorter bit patterns to more common characters. JPEG uses discrete cosine transforms to focus on lower frequency components, representing 8x8 pixel blocks with 2 to 20 bytes. MPEG extends JPEG techniques to video by also applying compression across multiple frames. Data compression provides benefits for storage, transmission and downloading of large files.

WHY COMPRESSION?

STRATEGIES:
LOSSY LOSSLESS Lossless run-length Huffman delta LZW Lossy CS&Q JPEG MPEG

Run-length encoding
Digitized signals can also have runs of the same value, indicating that the signal is not changing.

a flag to indicate that run-length compression is beginning. Each run of zeros is replaced by two characters in the compressed file: a zero to indicate that compression is occurring, followed by the number of zeros in the run.

Huffman -encoding
In ASCII files, 96% of this file consists of only 31 characters: the lower case letters, the space, the comma, the period and the carriage return.

This allows 96% of the file to be reduced in size by 5/8.


11111, will be a flag indicating that the character being transmitted is not one of the 31 common characters. This results in 4% of the characters in the input file requiring 5+8=13 bits. Average no. of bits per original character 0.96x5 + 0.04x 13 = 5.32.

Delta-Encoding
The first value in the delta encoded file is the same as the first value in the original data.

the following values in the encoded file are equal to the difference (delta) between the corresponding value in the input file, and the previous value in the input file.

JPEG (Transform Compression)


JPEG is named after its origin, the Joint Photographers Experts Group . CS&Q Data file becomes smaller at the expense of the signal quality. These simple methods do not work very well. Transform compression Principle : when the signal is passed through the Fourier (or other) transform, the resulting data values will no longer be equal in their information carrying roles . The low frequency components of a signal are more important than the high frequency components.

JPEG Compression

8x8 pixel groups. Each pixel is a single byte . Each group is initially represented by 64 bytes. During uncompression, the inverse transform is taken of the 2 to 20 bytes to create an approximation of the original 8x8 group.

JPEG Compression

Original image

10:1 compression

45:1 compression

Example of JPEG distortion. The image on the left is the original, while the center and right are restored images using compression ratios of 10:1 and 45:1, respectively. The high compression ratio used in the right image in each 8x8 pixel group being represented by less than 12 bits.

Comparison of different image compression techniques


Original image as 24 bit bmp takes space of 1.73MB gif image takes 2.9KB jpeg image takes about 10KB

Original Image

GIF PROBLEMS
Unsuitable for natural images (photos): Maximum 256 colors () bad quality). Repetetive patterns uncommon () bad compression). Alternative: PNG

MPEG
Moving Pictures Experts Group A compression standard for digital video sequences Used in computer video and digital television networks. The future of this technology is to encode the compression and uncompression algorithms directly into integrated circuits . two types of compression - within-the-frame (jpeg) and between-frame. delta encoding to compress the redundant information between frames The addition of color and sound makes this all the more complicated.

CONCLUSION
Importance of data compression Large data in small spaces Compression for the purpose of transmission Compression for the purpose of decreasing storage space requirement Downloading on net becomes easier Mpeg one of the most important technologies of the next generation
