While a conversion from a compressed to an uncompressed format is in general without loss, this is not true the other way around. Even a compressed-uncompressed-compressed round trip without any image manipulation may incur some loss of detail [ citation needed ] .

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.
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 ...
Most raw files contain a full size JPEG conversion of the image, which is used to preview the file on the camera's LCD panel. In the case of motion picture film scans, either the timecode, keycode or frame number in the file sequence which represents the frame sequence in a scanned reel. This item allows the file to be ordered in a frame ...
An example that illustrates the Rebus principle is the representation of the sentence "I can see you" by using the pictographs of "eye—can—sea—ewe". Some linguists believe that the Chinese developed their writing system according to the rebus principle, [ 9 ] and Egyptian hieroglyphs sometimes used a similar system.
The factor–label method can convert only unit quantities for which the units are in a linear relationship intersecting at 0 (ratio scale in Stevens's typology). Most conversions fit this paradigm. An example for which it cannot be used is the conversion between the Celsius scale and the Kelvin scale (or the Fahrenheit scale). Between degrees ...
