  2. Free Lossless Image Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Lossless_Image_Format

    The format supports an optional alpha channel like PNG (but unlike JPEG); and progressive coding, similar to PNG (unlike it, progressive compression doesn't increase file-size), but as FLIF's algorithm is more complex (and partly, may not have had as much tuning of the implementation yet), it has a higher computational cost; at least lower ...

  3. Image file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_format

    An image file format is a file format for a digital image. There are many formats that can be used, such as JPEG, PNG, and GIF. Most formats up until 2022 were for storing 2D images, not 3D ones. The data stored in an image file format may be compressed or uncompressed.

  4. 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 ...

  5. Lossless compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lossless_compression

    The "trick" that allows lossless compression algorithms, used on the type of data they were designed for, to consistently compress such files to a shorter form is that the files the algorithms are designed to act on all have some form of easily modeled redundancy that the algorithm is designed to remove, and thus belong to the subset of files ...

  6. Embedded zerotrees of wavelet transforms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embedded_Zerotrees_of...

    Embedded zerotree wavelet algorithm (EZW) as developed by J. Shapiro in 1993, enables scalable image transmission and decoding. It is based on four key concepts: first, it should be a discrete wavelet transform or hierarchical subband decomposition; second, it should predict the absence of significant information when exploring the self-similarity inherent in images; third, it has entropy ...

  8. bzip2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bzip2

    bzip2 is a free and open-source file compression program that uses the Burrows–Wheeler algorithm.It only compresses single files and is not a file archiver.It relies on separate external utilities such as tar for tasks such as handling multiple files, and other tools for encryption, and archive splitting.

  9. Free response question - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_response_question

    Free response questions typically require little work for instructors to write, but can be difficult to grade consistently as they require subjective judgments. Free response tests are a relatively effective test of higher-level reasoning, as the format requires test-takers to provide more of their reasoning in the answer than multiple choice ...
