JPEG is a lossy image compression algorithm, not a file format. It uses a 4-step process to compress images: 1) transforming RGB to YCbCr color space, 2) applying a discrete cosine transformation to identify redundant data, 3) quantizing the remaining data, and 4) encoding the result to minimize storage requirements. Typical compression ratios are 10:1 to 20:1 without visible loss and up to 100:1 compression for low quality applications.

JPEG: compression algorithm, NOT a file format. The original JPEG format
was JFIF and later SPIFF. Current popular choices include C-Cube
JFIF; Adobe TIFF/JPEG.
4-step process:
1. Transforming RGB to YCbCr, separating intensity from color
2. Identifying redundant data using a Discrete Cosine Transformation
(DCT)
3. Quantizing remaining data
4. Encoding the result to minimize storage requirements

40. Compression performance
JPEG:
} 10:1 to 20:1 compression without visible loss (effective storage
requirement drops to 1-2 bits/pixel)
} 30:1 to 50:1 compression with small to moderate visual
deterioration
} 100:1 compression for low quality applications
