Show HN: CVD Tool – Image Compression Algorithm (13MB to 10KB)" (github.com)
2 points by mohamedtrigui5 69 days ago
Hi! I developed CVD (Color-Vector-Decimal), a C++ algorithm that treats images as sequential bit-planes. Results: Lossy mode (CVD2) reached 99.9% compression on AI art (13MB to 10KB). Lossless mode (CVD1) is also faster/smaller than PNG in many cases.

I expected to see code since you link to Github, but I only see a zip file?
"Hi! Thank you for your feedback. You are absolutely right. I am new to GitHub and I uploaded the project as a ZIP file initially to include the assets and binaries.I am currently extracting the source files (C++ .cpp and .h) so you can browse the 'Bit-Plane sequencing' logic directly in the repository without downloading anything. It will be ready in a few minutes!In the meantime, you can find the core logic in the src/ folder inside the ZIP."
