Data compression techniques can be divided into the irreversible and reversible categories. The irreversible techniques are usually called data compaction. The compression may be followed by expansion which recovers the original data. The semantic independent compression techniques do not use any information regarding the content of data. The semantic dependent techniques depend on (and are optimized for) the context and semantics of data to provide for redundancy reduction. 4, record 1, English, - data%20compression
