2.0 out of 5 stars
Too low density of information,
By Vladimir Mencl
This review is from: Data and Image Compression: Tools and Techniques, 4th Edition (Hardcover)
The informational density in this book is too low.The book provides good description of compression techniques and algorithms, however, compared to the number of pages, the amount of information provided is not adequate. The book is full of program listings in both BASIC and C, together with a description of what this code does. This I consider unnecessary. Also, the book is dangerously inaccurate in many places, even in algorithm specifications, formulations are often so inaccurate, that they can be even considered misleading. However, if you are a carefull and aware reader, you can harvest the compression algorithms out of this book. |
