Intel and Nvidia showed off their respective AI-powered texture-compression technologies over the weekend, demonstrating impressive reductions in VRAM use while maintaining texture quality, or even ...

The big picture: Google has developed three AI compression algorithms – TurboQuant, PolarQuant, and Quantized Johnson-Lindenstrauss – designed to significantly reduce the memory footprint of large ...

If Google’s AI researchers had a sense of humor, they would have called TurboQuant, the new, ultra-efficient AI memory compression algorithm announced Tuesday, “Pied Piper” — or, at least that’s what ...

Abstract: The Picture-Wise Just Noticeable Difference (PW-JND) represents the visibility threshold of human vision when viewing distorted images. The PW-JND plays an important role in perceptual image ...

Yes, I understand why the initial compression of a bitmap (not necessarily a .BMP) to a JPEG is lossy, via the quantization step after DCT. But if I decompress a JPEG back to a new bitmap, and then re ...

Semi-fragile watermark for color image tamper detection and recovery. Robust after JPEG and normal processing, fragile when content is tampered. Code in Matlab.

DeepSeek, the Chinese artificial intelligence research company that has repeatedly challenged assumptions about AI development costs, has released a new model that fundamentally reimagines how large ...

Having a good pair of compressions socks—like these top picks—can help with recovery, swelling, and pain in your lower extremities. Durable, stretchy, water-resistant, and not lacking in pockets, the ...

A new Linux malware named Koske may have been developed with artificial intelligence and is using seemingly benign JPEG images of panda bears to deploy malware directly into system memory. Researchers ...
