Title: LZMA Authors: Venue: Wikipedia Year: unknown Canonical: wiki:lzma URL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LZMA Collector: wikipedia OA: true ABSTRACT LZMA is a lossless data compression algorithm developed since 1998 by Igor Pavlov, the developer of 7-Zip. It has been used in the 7z format of the 7-Zip archiver since 2001. This algorithm uses a dictionary compression scheme somewhat similar to the LZ77 algorithm published by Abraham Lempel and Jacob Ziv in 1977 and features a high compression ratio and a variable compression-dictionary size, while still maintaining decompression speed similar to other commonly used compression algorithms.
