Baseline JPEG also supports progressive encoding. While sequential encoding encodes coefficients of a single block at a time (in a zigzag manner), progressive encoding encodes similar-positioned batch of coefficients of all blocks in one go (called a scan ), followed by the next batch of coefficients of all blocks, and so on.
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.
JPEG 2000's lossless mode runs more slowly and has often worse compression ratios than JPEG LS on artificial and compound images [12] [13] but fares better than the UBC implementation of JPEG LS on digital camera pictures. [14] JPEG 2000 is also scalable, progressive, and more widely implemented. [citation needed]
JPEG XL has features aimed at web delivery such as advanced progressive decoding, [40] embedded previews, and minimal header overhead, as well as features aimed at image editing and digital printing, such as support for multiple layers, CMYK, and spot colors. It also supports animated images. The main features are: [41] [42] [43] Compression:
Some changes can be made to the compression without re-encoding: Optimizing the compression (to reduce size without change to the decoded image) Converting between progressive and non-progressive encoding. The freeware Windows-only IrfanView has some lossless JPEG operations in its JPG_TRANSFORM plugin.
libjpeg-turbo is a fork of libjpeg that uses SIMD instructions to accelerate baseline JPEG encoding and decoding. Many projects are now using libjpeg-turbo instead of libjpeg, including popular Linux distributions ( Fedora , Debian , Mageia , openSUSE , ...), Mozilla , and Chrome .
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.
PGF (Progressive Graphics File) is a wavelet-based bitmapped image format that employs lossless and lossy data compression. PGF was created to improve upon and replace the JPEG format. It was developed at the same time as JPEG 2000 but with a focus on speed over compression ratio .
