2. JPEG compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG

   Continuously varied JPEG compression (between Q=100 and Q=1) for an abdominal CT scan. JPEG (/ ˈ dʒ eɪ p ɛ ɡ / JAY-peg, short for Joint Photographic Experts Group and sometimes retroactively referred to as JPEG 1) [2] [3] is a commonly used method of lossy compression for digital images, particularly for those images produced by digital photography.

3. Image compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_compression

   Image compression is a type of data compression applied to digital images, to reduce their cost for storage or transmission. Algorithms may take advantage of visual perception and the statistical properties of image data to provide superior results compared with generic data compression methods which are used for other digital data.

4. Cropping (image) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cropping_(image)

   Cropping is the removal of unwanted outer areas from a photographic or illustrated image. The process usually consists of the removal of some of the peripheral areas of an image to remove extraneous visual data from the picture, improve its framing, change the aspect ratio, or accentuate or isolate the subject matter from its background.

5. Image editing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_editing

   Digital editors are used to crop images. Cropping creates a new image by selecting a desired rectangular portion from the image being cropped. The unwanted part of the image is discarded. Image cropping does not reduce the resolution of the area cropped. Best results are obtained when the original image has a high resolution.

6. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

   Composite image showing JPG and PNG image compression. Left side of the image is from a low-quality JPEG image, showing lossy artefacts; the right side is from a PNG image. In information technology, lossy compression or irreversible compression is the class of data compression methods that uses inexact approximations and partial data ...

7. Quantization (image processing) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantization_(image...

   Quantization, involved in image processing, is a lossy compression technique achieved by compressing a range of values to a single quantum (discrete) value. When the number of discrete symbols in a given stream is reduced, the stream becomes more compressible.
