The purpose of this scientific work is to develop an algorithm for optimal encoding of WAV files using genetic algorithms, which simultaneously combines an acceptable encoding speed and a higher compression ratio of audio data than classical encoding methods. The article discusses the structure of WAV files; the principle of Huffman coding has been studied, and the process of compressing WAV files using this algorithm has been described; on the basis of Huffman coding with the help of genetic algorithms, an algorithm for optimal encoding of WAV files was developed and tested; based on the obtained results, conclusions are drawn about the work done.
