Line 166:

One signal that does not match a geometric distribution is a [[sine wave]], because the differential residues create a sinusoidal signal whose values are not creating a geometric distribution (the highest and lowest residue values have similar high frequency of occurrences, only the median positive and negative residues occur less often).

Several lossless [[audio data compression|audio codecs]], such as [[Shorten (file format)|Shorten]],<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.etree.org/shnutils/shorten/support/doc/shorten.txt |title=man shorten |access-date=2008-12-07 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140130053525/http://www.etree.org/shnutils/shorten/support/doc/shorten.txt |archive-date=2014-01-30 |url-status=dead }}</ref> [[FLAC]],<ref>[http{{Cite web|url=https://flacxiph.sourceforge.netorg/flac/documentation_format_overview.html |title=FLAC documentation:- formatFormat overview]|website=xiph.org}}</ref> [[Apple Lossless]], and [[MPEG-4 ALS]], use a Rice code after the [[Linear predictive coding|linear prediction step]] (called "adaptive FIR filter" in Apple Lossless).

Rice coding is also used in the [[FELICS]] lossless image codec.
