Approximate DNA Storage with High Robustness and Density for Images

Explore a 42-minute conference talk from the Storage Developer Conference (SDC) 2023 that delves into innovative approaches for storing images in DNA-based storage systems. Learn about a groundbreaking DNA architecture specifically designed for JPEG-based images that enhances storage robustness while implementing error-prevention barriers within DNA sequences. Discover how a hybrid lossy and lossless encoding scheme maximizes storage density, bringing it closer to ideal theoretical limits. Understand the fundamental concepts of DNA storage, examine new methodologies for improving density and robustness in approximate DNA storage for images, and explore future research possibilities in this field. Presented by Bingzhe Li from the University of Texas at Dallas, the talk demonstrates through experimental results how these proposed schemes achieve superior error resistance compared to existing DNA storage codes while significantly improving encoding density.
