Lossless Vs Lossy Compression Presentation

The document discusses data compression, highlighting the two main types: lossless and lossy. Lossless compression retains all original data, while lossy compression sacrifices some data for higher compression rates. Applications vary across text, images, and video, with the choice of compression type depending on the need for quality versus file size.

Lossless vs.

Lossy Compression:
Concepts and Applications
PPT Presentation on Compression
Techniques
Introduction to Compression
• - Compression is the process of reducing data
size.
• - Enhances storage efficiency and speeds up
transmission.
• - Two main types: Lossless and Lossy.
• - Used in images, audio, video, and text
formats.
Lossless vs. Lossy Compression -
Part 1
• Lossless Compression:
• - No data is lost during compression.
• - Data can be perfectly reconstructed.
• - Examples: ZIP, PNG, FLAC.

• Lossy Compression:
• - Some data is permanently removed.
• - Achieves higher compression rates.
• - Examples: JPEG, MP3, MP4.
Lossless vs. Lossy Compression -
Part 2
• Comparison:
• - Lossless is used for sensitive data.
• - Lossy is suitable for media with acceptable
quality loss.
• - Trade-off: File size vs. Quality.
Lossless Compression Techniques
• Huffman Coding:
• - Variable-length codes for characters.
• - Based on character frequency.

• Arithmetic Coding:
• - Represents entire message as a range.
• - More precise than Huffman in some cases.
Dictionary-Based Compression
• Dictionary Coding:
• - Replaces repeated strings with references.
• - Examples: LZ77, LZW (used in ZIP, GIF).

• - Efficient for large, redundant data sets.


Applications in Text and Images
• Text:
• - ZIP, GZIP use lossless methods.
• - PDF text compression.

• Images:
• - JPEG (lossy) vs. PNG (lossless).
• - Depends on need for quality vs. size.
Applications in Video Compression
• - Video codecs like H.264, MPEG use lossy
compression.
• - Balance between file size and visual quality.
• - Streaming platforms use adaptive bitrate
streaming.
Summary and Conclusion
• - Compression optimizes storage and speeds
transmission.
• - Lossless preserves original data.
• - Lossy reduces file size with acceptable
quality loss.
• - Choice depends on application and quality
needs.
