Algorithm based on LLMs doubles lossless data compression rates

A powerful lossless data compression algorithm based on LLMs
Image comparing the lossless compression rates of LMCompress with the traditional state-of-the-art methods and the large-model-based method that was proposed independently by a DeepMind-Meta&INRIA team. The comparison is done on four types of data: image, video, audio, and text. It shows that LMCompress consistently outperforms the others on all data types. Note that the DeepMind result on video is not available. Credit: Li et al.

People store large quantities of data in their electronic devices and transfer some of this data to others, whether for professional or personal reasons. Data compression methods are thus of the utmost importance, as they can boost the efficiency of devices and communications, making users less reliant on cloud data services and external storage devices.
