Data Compressionby David Salomon
Springer 2007; US$ 99.00
Data compression is one of the important fields and tools in modern computing. From archiving data to CD ROMs, and from coding theory to image processing, many facets of modern computing rely upon data compression. This book provides a reference for the many different types and methods of compression. more...
Compression Algorithms for Real Programmersby Peter Wayner
Elsevier 1999; US$ 54.95
In life, time is money, and on the Internet, the size of data is money. Small programs and small files take less disk space and cost less to send over the Internet. Compression Algorithms for Real Programmers describes the basic algorithms and approaches for compressing information so you can create the smallest files possible. These new algorithms are making it possible for people to take impossibly large audio and video files and compress them enough that they can flow over the Internet. * Examines the classic algorithms like Huffman coding, arithmetic compression, and dictionary-based schemes in depth * Describes the basic approaches used to squeeze audio and video signals by factors of as much as 100:1 * Discusses the philosophy of... more...
Fundamental Data Compressionby Ida Mengyi Pu
Elsevier Science & Technology 2005; US$ 52.95
Fundamental Data Compression provides all the information students need to be able to use this essential technology in their future careers. A huge, active research field, and a part of many people's everyday lives, compression technology is an essential part of today's Computer Science and Electronic Engineering courses. With the help of this book, students can gain a thorough understanding of the underlying theory and algorithms, as well as specific techniques used in a range of scenarios, including the application of compression techniques to text, still images, video and audio. Practical exercises, projects and exam questions reinforce learning, along with suggestions for further reading. * Dedicated data compression textbook for use... more...
Algorithmic Information Theoryby Peter Seibt
Springer 2006; US$ 159.00
Treats the Mathematics of many important areas in digital information processing. This book covers, in a unified presentation, five topics: Data Compression, Cryptography, Sampling (Signal Theory), Error Control Codes, Data Reduction. It is useful for teachers, students and practitioners in Electronic Engineering, Computer Science and Mathematics. more...
The Burrows-Wheeler Transformby Donald Adjeroh; Timothy Bell; Amar Mukherjee
Springer 2008; US$ 159.00
The Burrows-Wheeler Transform is a text transformation scheme that has found applications in different aspects of the data explosion problem, from data compression to index structures and search. The BWT belongs to a new class of compression algorithms, distinguished by its ability to perform compression by sorted contexts. More recently, the BWT has also found various applications in addition to text data compression, such as in lossless and lossy image compression, tree-source identification, bioinformatics, machine translation, shape matching, and test data compression. This book will serve as a reference for seasoned professionals or researchers in the area, while providing a gentle introduction, making it accessible for senior undergraduate... more...
Variable-length Codes for Data Compressionby David Salomon
Springer 2008; US$ 79.95
Most data compression methods that are based on variable-length codes employ the Huffman or Golomb codes. However, there are a large number of less-known codes that have useful properties. This book brings this set of codes to the attention of workers in the field and of students of computer science. more...
Handbook of Data Compressionby David Salomon
Springer 2010; US$ 129.00
Data compression is one of the most important fields and tools in modern computing. From archiving data, to CD-ROMs, and from coding theory to image analysis, many facets of modern computing rely upon data compression. This book provides a comprehensive reference for the many different types and methods of compression. Included are a detailed and helpful taxonomy, analysis of most common methods, and discussions on the use and comparative benefits of methods and description of "how to" use them. Detailed descriptions and explanations of the most well-known and frequently used compression methods are covered in a self-contained fashion, with an accessible style and technical level for specialists and non-specialists. more...
Satellite Data Compressionby Bormin Huang
Springer 2011; US$ 129.00
Satellite Data Compression covers recent progress in compression techniques for multispectral, hyperspectral and ultra spectral data. A survey of recent advances in the fields of satellite communications, remote sensing and geographical information systems is included. Satellite Data Compression, contributed by leaders in this field, is the first book available on satellite data compression. It covers onboard compression methodology and hardware developments in several space agencies. Case studies are presented on recent advances in satellite data compression techniques via various prediction-based, lookup-table-based, transform-based, clustering-based, and projection-based approaches. This book provides valuable information on state-of-the-art... more...
Uncertain Schema Matchingby Avigdor Gal
Morgan & Claypool Publishers 2011; US$ 35.00
Schema matching is the task of providing correspondences between concepts describing the meaning of data in various heterogeneous, distributed data sources. Schema matching is one of the basic operations required by the process of data and schema integration, and thus has a great effect on its outcomes, whether these involve targeted content delivery, view integration, database integration, query rewriting over heterogeneous sources, duplicate data elimination, or automatic streamlining of workflow activities that involve heterogeneous data sources. Although schema matching research has been ongoing for over 25 years, more recently a realization has emerged that schema matchers are inherently uncertain. Since 2003, work on the uncertainty... more...
