Which compression method is best for video?
DCT is the most widely used lossy compression method, and is used in multimedia formats for images (such as JPEG and HEIF), video (such as MPEG, AVC and HEVC) and audio (such as MP3, AAC and Vorbis). Lossy image compression is used in digital cameras, to increase storage capacities.
What is the most efficient compression algorithm?
The most successful compressors are XM and GeCo. For eukaryotes XM is slightly better in compression ratio, though for sequences larger than 100 MB its computational requirements are impractical.
Which algorithm is used to compress a video?
The correct answer is MPEG. MPEG algorithms compress video data to reduce number of bytes that can be easily transmitted and then decompressed. MPEG stands for The Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG).
Is there a perfect compression algorithm?
No. It can be proven that there is not even an algorithm to determine how well a perfect compressor will do. See Kolmogorov Complexity. Huffman coding (or arithmetic coding) by itself does not get close to the best compression.
