Compression d'imageLa compression d'image est une application de la compression de données sur des . Cette compression a pour utilité de réduire la redondance des données d'une image afin de pouvoir l'emmagasiner sans occuper beaucoup d'espace ou la transmettre rapidement. La compression d'image peut être effectuée avec perte de données ou sans perte. La compression sans perte est souvent préférée là où la netteté des traits est primordiale : schémas, dessins techniques, icônes, bandes dessinées.
Adaptive bitrate streamingAdaptive bitrate streaming is a technique used in streaming multimedia over computer networks. While in the past most video or audio streaming technologies utilized streaming protocols such as RTP with RTSP, today's adaptive streaming technologies are based almost exclusively on HTTP, and are designed to work efficiently over large distributed HTTP networks. Adaptive bitrate streaming works by detecting a user's bandwidth and CPU capacity in real time, adjusting the quality of the media stream accordingly.
Matrice circulantevignette|Exemple de matrice circulante avec les éléments représentés par des couleurs En algèbre linéaire, une matrice circulante est une matrice carrée dans laquelle on passe d'une ligne à la suivante par permutation circulaire (décalage vers la droite) des coefficients. Une matrice circulante de taille n est donc de la forme où les coefficients ci sont des complexes. Une matrice circulante constitue un cas particulier de matrice de Toeplitz, de matrice de Frobenius (c'est la matrice générique de la multiplication par un élément de l'algèbre de groupe C[Z/nZ] et aussi un cas particulier de carré latin).
Market distortionIn neoclassical economics, a market distortion is any event in which a market reaches a market clearing price for an item that is substantially different from the price that a market would achieve while operating under conditions of perfect competition and state enforcement of legal contracts and the ownership of private property. A distortion is "any departure from the ideal of perfect competition that therefore interferes with economic agents maximizing social welfare when they maximize their own".
Excess burden of taxationIn economics, the excess burden of taxation, also known as the deadweight cost or deadweight loss of taxation, is one of the economic losses that society suffers as the result of taxes or subsidies. Economic theory posits that distortions change the amount and type of economic behavior from that which would occur in a free market without the tax. Excess burdens can be measured using the average cost of funds or the marginal cost of funds (MCF). Excess burdens were first discussed by Adam Smith.
