A compression program for chemical, biological, and nanotechnologies
Bradley S. Tice · Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE · 2011
The paper will introduce a compression algorithm that will use based number systems beyond the fundamental standard of the traditional binary, or radix 2, based system in use today. A greater level of compression is noted in these radix based number systems when compared to the radix 2 base as applied to a sequential strings of various information. The application of this comrpession algorithm to both random and non-random sequences for compression will be reviewed in this paper. The natural sciences and engineering applications will be areas covered in this paper.
