Abstract
A data compression technique involves: selecting, from a data block, a plurality of bit strings as sample data. The technique further involves: determining a set of characters included in the sample data. Each character in the set of characters is represented by at least one bit string among the plurality of bit strings. The technique further involves: compressing the data block if statistical characteristics of the set of characters match predetermined statistical characteristics. Accordingly, incompressible data can be filtered out efficiently and accurately, so as to utilize computing resources more efficiently.
