Data compression

In information theory, data compression, source coding, or bit-rate reduction is the process of encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation.

Data compression ratio

Data compression ratio, also known as compression power, is a measurement of the relative reduction in size of data representation produced by a data compression algorithm.
