HALIC (High Availability Lossless Image Compression)

Since the codec is Lossless, there wont be any subjective measurement in quality like lossy codec. And all we need to look at are Compressed Size, Encoding and Decoding time.

It wasn't that long ago JPEG XL manage to break through the best of all Lossless Image codec, from WebP to AVIF.

Now not only HALIC compress better than JPEG XL in photographic images, it also does it anywhere from 5 to 20x less encoding or decoding time. Along with far less memory resources.

Thank you very much. Yes, this information is correct. Right now I have taken a break from the HALIC project and I am interested in HALAC(High Availability Lossless Audio Compression) project. I guess I will achieve the same success.

Thanks Hakan. I know about HALAC as I follow both HydrogenAudio and encode.ru ( with a different user name I used 20 years ago ). I thought about posting HALIC on doom9 as well but I dont think they many would be interested there.

Anyway keep up the good work. And hopefully some day it gets open sourced.

Thank you for your attention. I'm trying to do my best. Regarding the open source, I answered the questions asked as follows (In HALAC Topic).

"Frankly, if I publish open sources now, I can't take care of them again. Because there will be no excitement. I say this because I know myself very well. When I bring my work to a certain stage, I would like to deliver it to a team that can claim it. However, I want to see how much I can improve my work alone."

I need a little more time.
