Google Research unveiled TurboQuant, a novel quantization algorithm that compresses large language models’ Key-Value caches ...

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.

Within 24 hours of the release, community members began porting the algorithm to popular local AI libraries like MLX for ...

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 ...

Compression reduces bandwidth and storage requirements by removing redundancy and irrelevancy. Redundancy occurs when data is sent when it’s not needed. Irrelevancy frequently occurs in audio and ...

Google has introduced a new data compression algorithm, which the company believes will make the Internet faster for all users. Known as Zopfli, the open-source algorithm is said to increase data ...

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 ...
