1. A data compression technique that reduces file size by exploiting the statistical properties and frequency distribution of data, such as Huffman coding or arithmetic coding
Statistical compression algorithms analyze the probability of each symbol appearing in the data.
Os algoritmos de compressão estatística analisam a probabilidade de cada símbolo aparecer nos dados.
2. The process of encoding information more efficiently based on the likelihood of certain characters or patterns occurring
Statistical compression is particularly effective for text files where certain letters appear more frequently than others.
A compressão estatística é particularmente eficaz para arquivos de texto onde certas letras aparecem com mais frequência que outras.
