Partners’ proof-of-concept for next-generation video coding technology positively evaluated by the ITU-T Video Coding Experts ...

The Layer II coder provides a higher compression rate by making some relatively minor modifications to the Layer I coding scheme. These modifications include how the samples are grouped together, the ...

STMicroelectronics has announced an MPEG layer 3 audio decoder chip that also includes an embedded ADPCM (adaptive differential pulse code modulation) codec to allow voice recording and playback.

December 14, 2004 MP3, the world's most popular audio compression format is about to go multi-channel. Scientists and engineers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Circuits IIS, who developed ...

Lossy compression schemes can be based on a source model, as in the case of speech compression, or a user or sink model, as is somewhat the case in image compression. In this chapter we look at audio ...
