  2. 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.

    Compression of an image to reduce file size (in Kb) is usually "lossy" and is not advised for featured pictures. Image compression will reduce download times and save disk space, but it does so at the expense of fine detail and overall image quality. If in doubt, when saving JPEG files, always select the "maximum" quality setting.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_2000

    JPEG 2000 (JP2) is an image compression standard and coding system. It was developed from 1997 to 2000 by a Joint Photographic Experts Group committee chaired by Touradj Ebrahimi (later the JPEG president), [1] with the intention of superseding their original JPEG standard (created in 1992), which is based on a discrete cosine transform (DCT), with a newly designed, wavelet-based method.

    The original variant is maintained and published by the Independent JPEG Group (IJG). Meanwhile, there are several forks with additional features. JPEG JFIF images are widely used on the Web. The amount of compression can be adjusted to achieve the desired trade-off between file size and visual quality. [4]

    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 ...

  8. JPEG XL - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JPEG_XL

    JPEG XL beats AVIF for higher quality images, but AVIF will often outperform JPEG XL on low quality images in low-fidelity, high-appeal compression: low quality AVIF images will smooth out details and hide compression artifacts better, making them more visually appealing than JPEG XL images of the same size.

  9. Image conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_conversion

    Like any resampling operation, changing image size and bit depth are lossy in all cases of downsampling, such as 30-bit to 24-bit or 24-bit to 8-bit palette-based images. While increasing bit depth is usually lossless, increasing image size can introduce aliasing or other undesired artifacts.
