Publication number: 20230274465Abstract: The present disclosure provides an information compression system that is capable of achieving higher compression efficiency. A data acquisition section acquires data. A generation section (segmentation section and integration section) determines each object depicted by the data and a sense of each object, and according to results of the determination, generates compression target data by converting values of elements in the data to identification information indicating each object and the sense of each object. A data storage section generates compressed data by compressing the compression target data. This makes it possible to convert highly random element values to slightly random identification information and compress the resulting converted information while reducing the amount of information. Consequently, the compression ratio can be increased.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 30, 2023Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Hiroaki AKUTSU, Katsuto SATO, Takahiro NARUKO
