Introduction
This presentation examines
Huffman coding as an effective
data compression technique that
employs priority queues to reduce
data size without information loss.
We will discuss its importance, the
challenges it solves, and the data
flow involved in the encoding
procedure.
What is Huffman Coding?
• Huffman coding is a lossless data
compression algorithm that assigns unique
binary codes to characters or symbols
based on their frequency of occurrence.
• How It Works:
o Frequency Table
o Building a Priority Queue
o Huffman Tree
o Assign Codes
Key Features
• Efficiency: Reduces the size of data by
using variable-length codes (e.g.,
frequent characters get shorter codes).
• Lossless Compression: Ensures that no
data is lost during compression and
decompression.
• Applications: Used in file compression
formats (e.g., ZIP, GZIP), image formats
(e.g., JPEG, PNG), and multimedia
codecs (e.g., MP3, MPEG).
Priority Queue
• A priority queue is a special type of
data structure in which each element
is associated with a priority, and
elements with higher priority are
served before elements with lower
priority. If two elements have the
same priority, they are typically
processed in the order they were
added
Overview of data compression

Data compression refers to the techniques used to reduce


the size of data, which allows for more efficient storage
and transmission. The primary goal is to minimize file size
while retaining necessary information, which is crucial in
various applications such as file storage, streaming, and
transmission over limited bandwidth.
Problem Statement
The study explores how
Huffman coding can be
applied to compress text data
efficiently. It focuses on the
use of a priority queue to
manage the frequency of
characters.

respectively.
Output Screen
Conclusion
Huffman coding is an efficient method for lossless data
compression, and the use of a priority queue ensures the
swift construction of the Huffman tree. This case study
highlights how combining these techniques reduces data
size effectively, making it a vital tool in areas like file
compression and data transmission. Its simplicity and
efficiency reaffirm its relevance in modern applications.
