Intelligent Data Compression
Sensors can create a lot of digital data. The strive for functionality and redundancy has resulted in an overwhelming amount of data to be transmitted across a system or to be stored. This research topic aims to understand smart and efficient methods to reduce the data without compromising on perception quality.
