  2. Block Truncation Coding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_Truncation_Coding

    Using sub-blocks of 4×4 pixels gives a compression ratio of 4:1 assuming 8-bit integer values are used during transmission or storage. Larger blocks allow greater compression ("a" and "b" values spread over more pixels) however quality also reduces with the increase in block size due to the nature of the algorithm.

  3. Group 4 compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_4_compression

    A worst-case image would be an alternating pattern of single-pixel black and white dots offset by one pixel on even/odd lines. G4 compression would actually increase the file size on this type of image. G4 typically achieves a 20:1 compression ratio. [citation needed] For an 8.5"×11" page scanned at 200 DPI, this equates to a reduction from ...

  4. 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.

  5. Better Portable Graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Better_Portable_Graphics

    Better Portable Graphics (BPG) is a file format for coding digital images, which was created by programmer Fabrice Bellard in 2014. He has proposed it as a replacement for the JPEG image format as the more compression-efficient alternative in terms of image quality or file size. [1]

  7. Quantization (image processing) - Wikipedia

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

    This technique is commonly used for simplifying images, reducing storage requirements, and facilitating processing operations. In grayscale quantization, an image with N intensity levels is converted into an image with a reduced number of levels, typically L levels, where L<N. The process involves mapping each pixel's original intensity value ...

  8. Color Cell Compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_Cell_Compression

    The primary difference between Block Truncation Coding and Color Cell Compression is that the former was designed to compress grayscale images and the latter was designed to compress color images. Also, Block Truncation Coding requires that the standard deviation of the colors of pixels in a block be computed in order to compress an image ...

  9. Run-length encoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-length_encoding

    Run-length encoding (RLE) is a form of lossless data compression in which runs of data (consecutive occurrences of the same data value) are stored as a single occurrence of that data value and a count of its consecutive occurrences, rather than as the original run.
