To address this need in the specific area of still image encoding, a new standard is currently being developed, the JPEG2000. It is not only intended to provide rate-distortion and subjective image quality performance superior to existing standards, but also to provide functionality that current standards can either not address efficiently or not address at all.JPEGcolour image compressionsource codingsubband codingwavelet transformJPEG2000: The upcoming still image compression standardtext::journal::journal article::research article
