Page "Data compression" Paragraph 15
from
Wikipedia
The theoretical background of compression is provided by information theory ( which is closely related to algorithmic information theory ) for lossless compression, and by rate – distortion theory for lossy compression.
These fields of study were essentially created by Claude Shannon, who published fundamental papers on the topic in the late 1940s and early 1950s.
