Abstract

Implementations of the present disclosure provide for determining an encoding type of data. Implementations include receiving a data set from a computer-readable storage medium, decoding the data set using a first encoding type to provide a first plurality of numbers, generating a first distribution based on the first plurality of numbers, decoding the data set using a second encoding type to provide a second plurality of numbers, and generating a second distribution based on the second plurality of numbers. An actual encoding type of the data set is determined based on the first distribution, the second distribution and an expected distribution, and the data set is processed based on the actual encoding type.
