Hi,
Tomorrow we will have Steven Pigeon give us a brief primer on compression methods. I hope to see you there.
Time/Date: 14h00 August 25th
Location: LISA Lab (AA3256)
Title: Compression 101: A brief Introduction
The goal of the talk is to introduce the goals of data compression and its basic
concepts. We will illustrate the concepts using the different stages of a typical
codec (for CODer/DECorder pair) such as transformation, analysis, quantization
and entropy coding.
(Snacks provided by Steven, yay! :-))
Cheers,
Aaron
