<p>The HDF5 user can create an N-Bit datatype with the following code: </p><pre>
         hid_t nbit_datatype = H5Tcopy(H5T_STD_I32LE);
         H5Tset_precision(nbit_datatype, 16);
         H5Tset_offset(nbit_datatype, 4);
         </pre><p>In memory, one value of the N-Bit datatype in the above example will be stored on a little-endian machine as follows:</p>
<table class="doxtable">
<tr>
<td>byte 3 </td><td>byte 2 </td><td>byte 1 </td><td>byte 0  </td></tr>
<tr>
<td>????????  </td><td>????SPPP  </td><td>PPPPPPPP  </td><td>PPPP????   </td></tr>
</table>
<p>Note: S - sign bit, P - significant bit, ? - padding bit; For signed integer, the sign bit is included in the precision.</p>
<p>When data of the above datatype is stored on disk using the N-bit filter, all padding bits are chopped off and only significant bits are stored. The values on disk will be something like:</p>
<table class="doxtable">
<tr>
<td>1st value </td><td>2nd value </td><td>...  </td></tr>
<tr>
<td>SPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP </td><td>SPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP </td><td>...  </td></tr>
</table>
<p>The N-Bit filter is used effectively for compressing data of an N-Bit datatype as well as a compound and an array datatype with N-Bit fields. However, the datatype classes of the N-Bit datatype or the N-Bit field of the compound datatype or the array datatype are limited to integer or floating-point.</p>
<p>The N-Bit filter supports complex situations where a compound datatype contains member(s) of a compound datatype or an array datatype that has a compound datatype as the base type. However, it does not support the situation where an array datatype has a variable-length or variable-length string as its base datatype. The filter does support the situation where a variable-length or variable-length string is a member of a compound datatype.</p>
<p>The N-Bit filter allows all other HDF5 datatypes (such as time, string, bitfield, opaque, reference, enum, and variable length) to pass through as a no-op.</p>
<p>Like other I/O filters supported by the HDF5 library, application using the N-Bit filter must store data with chunked storage.</p>
<p>By nature, the N-Bit filter should not be used together with other I/O filters.</p>

<p>Generally speaking, scale-offset compression performs a scale and/or offset operation on each data value and truncates the resulting value to a minimum number of bits (MinBits) before storing it. The current scale-offset filter supports integer and floating-point datatypes.</p>
<p>For an integer datatype, the parameter <code>scale_type</code> should be set to <a class="el" href="group___s_c_a_l_e_o_f_f_s_e_t.html#gga53d85c0570e17f6e1ddbf569462b1516a9fc45fdf1844739c145130e8c324a3a3">H5Z_SO_INT</a> (2). The parameter <code>scale_factor</code> denotes MinBits. If the user sets it to H5Z_SO_INT_MINBITS_DEFAULT (0), the filter will calculate MinBits. If <code>scale_factor</code> is set to a positive integer, the filter does not do any calculation and just uses the number as MinBits. However, if the user gives a MinBits that is less than what would be generated by the filter, the compression will be lossy. Also, the MinBits supplied by the user cannot exceed the number of bits to store one value of the dataset datatype.</p>
<p>For a floating-point datatype, the filter adopts the GRiB data packing mechanism, which offers two alternate methods: E-scaling and D-scaling. Both methods are lossy compression. If the parameter <code>scale_type</code> is set to <a class="el" href="group___s_c_a_l_e_o_f_f_s_e_t.html#gga53d85c0570e17f6e1ddbf569462b1516aa3d402f72492b3f34929fb2b99805adb">H5Z_SO_FLOAT_DSCALE</a> (0), the filter will use the D-scaling method; if it is set to <a class="el" href="group___s_c_a_l_e_o_f_f_s_e_t.html#gga53d85c0570e17f6e1ddbf569462b1516aae52c95d077fdced352846e4f01bd826">H5Z_SO_FLOAT_ESCALE</a> (1), the filter will use the E-scaling method. Since only the D-scaling method is implemented, <code>scale_type</code> should be set to <a class="el" href="group___s_c_a_l_e_o_f_f_s_e_t.html#gga53d85c0570e17f6e1ddbf569462b1516aa3d402f72492b3f34929fb2b99805adb">H5Z_SO_FLOAT_DSCALE</a> or 0.</p>
<p>When the D-scaling method is used, the original data is "D" scaled — multiplied by 10 to the power of <code>scale_factor</code>, and the "significant" part of the value is moved to the left of the decimal point. Care should be taken in setting the decimal <code>scale_factor</code> so that the integer part will have enough precision to contain the appropriate information of the data value. For example, if <code>scale_factor</code> is set to 2, the number 104.561 will be 10456.1 after "D" scaling. The last digit 1 is not "significant" and is thrown off in the process of rounding. The user should make sure that after "D" scaling and rounding, the data values are within the range that can be represented by the integer (same size as the floating-point type).</p>
<p>Valid values for scale_type are as follows:</p>

The shuffle filter de-interlaces a block of data by reordering the bytes. All the bytes from one consistent byte position of each data element are placed together in one block; all bytes from a second consistent byte position of each data element are placed together a second block; etc. For example, given three data elements of a 4-byte datatype stored as 012301230123, shuffling will re-order data as 000111222333. This can be a valuable step in an effective compression algorithm because the bytes in each byte position are often closely related to each other and putting them together can increase the compression ratio.</p>
<p>As implied above, the primary value of the shuffle filter lies in its coordinated use with a compression filter; it does not provide data compression when used alone. When the shuffle filter is applied to a dataset immediately prior to the use of a compression filter, the compression ratio achieved is often superior to that achieved by the use of a compression filter without the shuffle filter.</p>

SZIP is a compression method designed for use with scientific data.</p>
<p>Before proceeding, all users should review the “Limitations” section below.</p>
<p>Users familiar with SZIP outside the HDF5 context may benefit from reviewing the Note “For Users Familiar with SZIP in Other Contexts” below.</p>
<p>In the text below, the term pixel refers to an HDF5 data element. This terminology derives from SZIP compression's use with image data, where pixel referred to an image pixel.</p>
<p>The SZIP <code>bits_per_pixel</code> value (see Note, below) is automatically set, based on the HDF5 datatype. SZIP can be used with atomic datatypes that may have size of 8, 16, 32, or 64 bits. Specifically, a dataset with a datatype that is 8-, 16-, 32-, or 64-bit signed or unsigned integer; char; or 32- or 64-bit float can be compressed with SZIP. See Note, below, for further discussion of the SZIP <code>bits_per_pixel</code> setting.</p>
<p>SZIP options are passed in an options mask, <code>options_mask</code>, as follows.</p>
<table class="doxtable">
<tr>
<th>Option </th><th>Description (Mutually exclusive; select one.)  </th></tr>
<tr>
<td><a class="el" href="group___s_z_i_p.html#gaf55e168a1f7aaf8a94d820a2210fccb9">H5_SZIP_EC_OPTION_MASK</a> </td><td>Selects entropy coding method  </td></tr>

</table>
<p>The following guidelines can be used in determining which option to select:</p>
<ul>
<li>The entropy coding method, the EC option specified by <a class="el" href="group___s_z_i_p.html#gaf55e168a1f7aaf8a94d820a2210fccb9">H5_SZIP_EC_OPTION_MASK</a>, is best suited for data that has been processed. The EC method works best for small numbers.</li>
<li>The nearest neighbor coding method, the NN option specified by <a class="el" href="group___s_z_i_p.html#ga688fde8106225adf9e6ccd2a168dec74">H5_SZIP_NN_OPTION_MASK</a>, preprocesses the data then the applies EC method as above.</li>
</ul>
<p>Other factors may affect results, but the above criteria provides a good starting point for optimizing data compression.</p>
<p>SZIP compresses data block by block, with a user-tunable block size. This block size is passed in the parameter <code>pixels_per_block</code> and must be even and not greater than 32, with typical values being 8, 10, 16, or 32. This parameter affects compression ratio; the more pixel values vary, the smaller this number should be to achieve better performance.</p>
<p>In HDF5, compression can be applied only to chunked datasets. If <code>pixels_per_block</code> is bigger than the total number of elements in a dataset chunk, <a class="el" href="group___d_c_p_l.html#ga37de4b6071a94574cfab5cd6de9c3fc6" title="Sets up use of the SZIP compression filter.">H5Pset_szip()</a> will succeed but the subsequent call to <a class="el" href="group___h5_d.html#ga0647ba4bbd26d5230cc07f3a5685b2cf">H5Dcreate()</a> will fail; the conflict can be detected only when the property list is used.</p>
<p>To achieve optimal performance for SZIP compression, it is recommended that a chunk's fastest-changing dimension be equal to N times <code>pixels_per_block</code> where N is the maximum number of blocks per scan line allowed by the SZIP library. In the current version of SZIP, N is set to 128.</p>
<p>SZIP compression is an optional HDF5 filter.</p>
<p><b>Limitations:</b> </p>
<ul>
<li>SZIP compression cannot be applied to compound, array, variable-length, enumeration, or any other user-defined datatypes. If an SZIP filter is set in a dataset creation property list used to create a dataset containing a non-allowed datatype, the call to <a class="el" href="group___h5_d.html#ga0647ba4bbd26d5230cc07f3a5685b2cf">H5Dcreate()</a> will fail; the conflict can be detected only when the property list is used.</li>
<li>Users should be aware that there are factors that affect one's rights and ability to use SZIP compression by reviewing the SZIP copyright notice.</li>
</ul>
<dl class="section note"><dt>Note</dt><dd><b>For</b> <b>Users</b> <b>Familiar</b> <b>with</b> <b>SZIP</b> <b>in</b> <b>Other</b> <b>Contexts:</b> </dd>
<dd>
The following notes are of interest primarily to those who have used SZIP compression outside of the HDF5 context. In non-HDF5 applications, SZIP typically requires that the user application supply additional parameters:<ul>
<li><code>pixels_in_object</code>, the number of pixels in the object to be compressed</li>
<li><code>bits_per_pixel</code>, the number of bits per pixel</li>
<li><code>pixels_per_scanline</code>, the number of pixels per scan line</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dd>
These values need not be independently supplied in the HDF5 environment as they are derived from the datatype and dataspace, which are already known. In particular, HDF5 sets <code>pixels_in_object</code> to the number of elements in a chunk and <code>bits_per_pixel</code> to the size of the element or pixel datatype.</dd>
<dd>
The following algorithm is used to set <code>pixels_per_scanline:</code> <ul>
<li>If the size of a chunk's fastest-changing dimension, size, is greater than 4K, set <code>pixels_per_scanline</code> to 128 times <code>pixels_per_block</code>.</li>
<li>If size is less than 4K but greater than <code>pixels_per_block</code>, set <code>pixels_per_scanline</code> to the minimum of size and 128 times <code>pixels_per_block</code>.</li>
<li>If size is less than <code>pixels_per_block</code> but greater than the number elements in the chunk, set <code>pixels_per_scanline</code> to the minimum of the number elements in the chunk and 128 times <code>pixels_per_block</code>.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dd>
The HDF5 datatype may have precision that is less than the full size of the data element, e.g., an 11-bit integer can be defined using <a class="el" href="group___a_t_o_m.html#gab0f4dccfc2fb47bf2c7e06c9bf84c1f7" title="Sets the precision of an atomic datatype.">H5Tset_precision()</a>. To a certain extent, SZIP can take advantage of the precision of the datatype to improve compression:<ul>
<li>If the HDF5 datatype size is 24-bit or less and the offset of the bits in the HDF5 datatype is zero (see <a class="el" href="group___a_t_o_m.html#gafd22e4b0aecbe6dad9a899c5bf567e2f" title="Sets the bit offset of the first significant bit.">H5Tset_offset()</a> or <a class="el" href="group___a_t_o_m.html#ga225f0b6d173f90d3696bb68b88ae07c1" title="Retrieves the bit offset of the first significant bit.">H5Tget_offset()</a>), the data is the in lowest N bits of the data element. In this case, the SZIP <code>bits_per_pixel</code> is set to the precision of the HDF5 datatype.</li>
<li>If the offset is not zero, the SZIP <code>bits_per_pixel</code> will be set to the number of bits in the full size of the data element.</li>
<li>If the HDF5 datatype precision is 25-bit to 32-bit, the SZIP <code>bits_per_pixel</code> will be set to 32.</li>
<li>If the HDF5 datatype precision is 33-bit to 64-bit, the SZIP <code>bits_per_pixel</code> will be set to 64.</li>
</ul>
</dd>
<dd>
HDF5 always modifies the options mask provided by the user to set up usage of RAW_OPTION_MASK, ALLOW_K13_OPTION_MASK, and one of LSB_OPTION_MASK or MSB_OPTION_MASK, depending on endianness of the datatype.</dd></dl>
