Information theory provides the fundamental framework for understanding and designing data compression algorithms. At its core lies the concept of entropy, a quantitative measure that reflects the ...

Coding, information theory and compression constitute the backbone of modern digital communications and data storage. Grounded in Shannon’s seminal work, information theory quantifies the ...

Common audio data formats such as the Compact Disc generally store a two-channel (stereo) audio signal. The left and fight channel data streams are stored entirely independently. Various new data ...
