Image Compression Images contain lots of redundancy, so compression is important in Teleconferencing Remote sensing Document and medical imaging FAX transmissions Anything that requires the transmission of an image requires a compression scheme
Image Compression (2) Two types Information preserving—used in medical applications Lossy—used in TV, FAX transmission,etc. Types of redundancy Coding redundancy Interpixel redundancy Psychovisual redundancy
