2. Image compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_compression

   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 ...

3. Lossy compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossy_compression

   In information technology, lossy compression or irreversible compression is the class of data compression methods that uses inexact approximations and partial data discarding to represent the content. These techniques are used to reduce data size for storing, handling, and transmitting content. The different versions of the photo of the cat on ...

4. Data compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression

   Data compression. In information theory, data compression, source coding, [1] or bit-rate reduction is the process of encoding information using fewer bits than the original representation. [2] Any particular compression is either lossy or lossless. Lossless compression reduces bits by identifying and eliminating statistical redundancy.

5. Data compression ratio - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_compression_ratio

   Definition. Data compression ratio is defined as the ratio between the uncompressed size and compressed size: [1][2][3][4][5] Thus, a representation that compresses a file's storage size from 10 MB to 2 MB has a compression ratio of 10/2 = 5, often notated as an explicit ratio, 5:1 (read "five" to "one"), or as an implicit ratio, 5/1.

6. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

   Lossless compression. Lossless compression is a class of data compression that allows the original data to be perfectly reconstructed from the compressed data with no loss of information. Lossless compression is possible because most real-world data exhibits statistical redundancy. [1] By contrast, lossy compression permits reconstruction only ...
