Inference‐Sufficient Representations for High‐Throughput Measurement: Lessons from Lossless Compression Benchmarks in 4D‐STEM

Advanced Computing, Volume 1, Issue 1, December 2026.
Agentic workflows will need a principled account of how data relates to scientific inference. We benchmark thirteen off‐the‐shelf compression implementations; the best already sits within 2.5×$\times$ of the entropy bound. We propose inference‐sufficient representations: model‐based representation, employing abductive inference, can reduce storage a ...
